10 minutes later the two were racing down the road, Shuichi desperately trying to get Hiro to drive faster. "If I go any faster Shuichi, we'll get pulled over and you wouldn't want that would you?" the smaller boy sank down into his chair defeated, turning his gaze to the window. Don't worry we'll get there soon.
Shuichi ran through the hospital door, and made a mad dash up the stairs. He burst through the doors of Eiri's room.
"Shindou- Chan, he moved. He squeezed my hand!" Ryuichi chirped, then giggled. "He probably thought I was you."
Shuichi walked towards the bed his heart pounding he sat in the chair brushing back a few stray hairs from his face. He slipped his hand into Yuki's. It jerked sharply; Shuichi jumped and looked down into beautiful Golden eyes. "Yuki," violet eyes teared, Shuichi threw his arms around his unsuspecting lover.
Eiri looked around the room deftly, then turned back to the boy who lay painfully against his chest. "Shuichi," he whispered. The name coming to him instantly. "Shuichi, I missed you so much." 'So this is the boy I tried to hard to remember.'
Watery eyes lifted to look at him. Eiri ruffled silky pink hair, Shuichi smiled brightly.
"I was so worried, Yuki. I thought I was going to lose you." Eiri reached out with a shaking a hand, whipping away warm, salty tears.
Tohma quietly shoed the others out of the room as Shuichi curled up beside hi lover, resting his head against his shoulder.
"When did they take the tube out of me?" The soft voice asked, Shuichi looked up slightly startled.
"I guess while I was gone. How did you know?" Shuichi looked into those soft honey coloured eyes, fearing that his love may be angry with him.
"I could feel it sometimes." Came the soft reply.
"Really. None of us knew what you would have wanted. I couldn't just let you die. It killed me to see you laying there like a corpse and I started to think that it might have been better if I hadn't let them do that to you, but by then it was to late. Please say you're not angry at me." Shuichi berried hi head into Yuki's shoulder as the tears began to flow from his eyes for who know how many times in the last few weeks.
The blond smiled kindly down at his lover. "Don't cry, love. Please, I'm not angry at you." He wrapped his arms around his, assumed to be, lover. Together the two drifted to sleep
Shuichi woke late that night. The moonbeams slipped through the space in the closed curtains laying themselves across the blonds pale face, He brushed his fingers across his koi cheek, and patted his soft hair. " You're so beautiful. If only you looked this innocent and kind all the time." Shuichi bent and kissed Eiri's well-sculpted lips, then lay back against the larger body and slept.
