"Little dudes!" Grandpa Kinomiya yelled down the hospital hall. What he received was about ten nurses and doctors telling him to hush.

Tyson looked up, his eyes vacant but focusing on his grandfather. Kenny, Hilary, Max and Rei were there all ready, all sitting down in the very uncomfortable chairs. Hilary was nervously flipping through some random magazine she had found, Kenny was typing away on his computer, Rei was sitting with his arms crossed and his eyes closed. All were doing this to keep their minds occupied. Tyson, on the other hand, was pacing the floor and Max was trying to calm him down. Grandpa noticed his hair was matted together.

"Grandpa!" Max cried as the older man approached them. They were all happy to see someone new, except Tyson who only wanted to see Kai.

"How are you, little dudes?" he asked worriedly, a deep frown forming. Rei closed his eyes again, Tyson continued his pacing, Hilary picked up a new magazine and Max followed Rei and started to meditate. Kenny answered.

"Not so good. The doctor took Kai into an examining room an hour ago and hasn't come back. We're all worried about him," Kenny lowered his voice. "Especially Tyson. And we don't know why. They never really liked each other. And when Hilary and I arrived he was full of blood." Apparently they were worried about this but grandpa just looked like he had suspected that would happen.

"Okay." was all the man could respond without giving away some things that Tyson and Kai wouldn't want them to know.

"I'm going to the cafeteria to get something to eat. Anyone want anything?" Max stood up and looked around the hall.

"I'll come with you." Hilary stood up and headed off, towards the stairs.

"Me, too." Rei stated and waited with Max.

"Um, get me a bottle of water." Kenny answered without looking up from the glowing screen.

"Tyson?" Max asked. Tyson shook his head, muttering under his breath.

"Get him a chocolate bar," grandpa whispered, knowing his grandson's sugar would be dropping. He also knew what a blow this would be to Tyson's already depressed mind. A terrifying thought.

"Okay."

Awhile later, everyone was back in the hallway. Tyson hadn't stopped pacing, but he did eat the candy bar. The day had grown long, it was four o'clock, it felt like it had been four months.

A doctor in a white coat, small glasses with very orange hair, walked out of Kai's room. He looked around and then walked over. He recognized Tyson. "Mr. Kinomiya?" Tyson and grandpa looked up, Tyson stopped pacing.

"Yes?" grandpa responded because Tyson couldn't find his voice, he was too afraid of what the doctor would say. Besides, grandpa was the oldest and the only adult.

"Does Kai have any relatives?" Dr. Tomas asked.

Grandpa looked around, no one seemed to know.

"No." no one had heard Tyson speak since Max had arrived, they were all surprised.

"None at all?" the doctor persisted.

"None." the boy confirmed.

"That poses a problem." Dr. Tomas muttered and flipped through the papers on his clipboard.

"Why?" Six voices asked as one.

"Because Mr. Hiwatari has a rare blood disease that can be cured but he needs healthy blood. He needs blood transfusions." the doctor paled. He had never lost a patient so young before.

"Why can't you do the transfusion?" Kenny asked.

"Because we don't have any of his blood type in the hospital or in any hospital within distance that can get it to us before it's too late. A lot of the roads were blocked during the storm." Dr. Tomas explained, thumbing through he papers again.

"Rei and I don't have blood on record here. What is his type?" Max asked.

"AB positive. Do any of you have it?" Max and Rei looked sorry, Tyson went rigid. "I didn't think you would. It's rare."

Tyson's eyes flashed hopefully. Grandpa was the only one that understood why he suddenly looked determined. "That's my blood type ..."

"Well, come this way, quickly. The sooner we do this the better the results." and he hurried Tyson away.

A few days later, Kai was sleeping peacfully. Tyson was once again watching over him while he was in a sickened state. Everyone else was at their homes resting up. They had all tried to get Tyson to go home in turns and all at once a last time, but it hadn't worked. The only times Tyson left Kai was when he had to go to the bathroom, change or get something to eat. He slept next to Kai and even fed him the few times Kai was awake. But those times Kai wasn't even really aware of what was going on, he was in a drug induced haze. The drug kept him out of a killer headache that was the cause of so much blood lose, and it helped to keep his blood as thick as it normaly was.

The older boy was doing okay and his body hadn't rejected Tyson's blood. All in all he would make a near perfect recovery. He would have to get blood transfusions monthly, probably for the rest of his life. Tyson would always offer his blood.

Tyson had yet to tell anyone why he didn't leave Kai's side, Kai had tried to help him when he had been about ready to kill himself. He probably would have killed himslef after that dream had Kai not been there for him. Now he coule be there for Kai. Tyson wasn't sure where he and Kai stood, anyway. He was sure they were more then friends because of the kiss but how far past that he wasn't sure.

The boy who wasn't unconcious was so lost in thought he didn't even notice Kai wake up. And he wasn't in a haze, he was alert and could sense Tyson next to him. His long pale hand shot up and reached for Tyson's freshly washed hair. It was soft to the touch and he moaned softly at the feel of the sikly strands and the ache in his head. As dull as it was it throbbed like hell. Needless to say, the usualy composed boy didn't much like it.

Brown eyes shoot up to look into red ones. Kai read the swirls. Tyson was feeling relief to such an extreme level Kai felt guilty. The blue-haired boy felt happiness beyond anything Kai had ever felt, and Ty was feeling guilt. And Kai didn't know why.

"Sorry, Ty." he wispered. His throat wasn't used to being stretched to making the movements to make the sounds and his voice wasn't used to being used. It came out gravelly and rough. Tyson liked it.

"What for?" Tyson leaned in close to hear him, which was a mistake because Kai's voice came back loud and a cross between it's old smoothness and it's new roughness.

"For worrying you. I didn't know it would lead to this ..." Kai trailed off, sweeping his free hand around the room. It was dark, no light penetrated the small window, only a fluorescent light was on in the corner.

"I shoud be sorry. Dr. Tomas said that the nosebleeds were brought on by stress. I must of stressed you beyond anything." Tyson was being noble but he was sticking a blame on his shoulders that no one had. No one was to blame for Kai's being hospitalized.

"You didn't stress me, just agrevated me. I loved you anyway, even if you had been the one to put me here." Kai didn't realize just what he had admitted. But it was the truth and he needed to say it some time.

"Ya mean it?" Tyson asked after a stunned silence. He seemed eager for the answer.

"For ever and ever, I'll always be in love you." Kai wisely didn't explain that Caena had always said that to him, in a brotherly way and without the 'be in' part. He suspected Tyson still didn't like an imaginary boy he had created to suit his needs.

"And I'll always love you, Kai." Tyson leaned in and kissed the pale lips deeply. He would never let Kai go again. Funnily enough, or maybe not, Kai was thinking the same thing about the angel above him.

A day later, Kai was to dispatched from the hospital. It was a beautiful day. The mess the storm had left behind had been cleaned up and it was virtualy forgotten. Colorful birds passed over head, calling out to each other and singing gaely. Tyson wanted to join in. He felt so elated and light. He finaly had someone in his life to love, someone to look after and someone to look after him.

No one knew about Kai and Tyson's relationship but them, so they thought. Grandpa knew about it, but they hadn't told him. He had nearly walked in on them during one of their makeout sessions. He had known it would happen sooner or later, he had had a feeling it would happen since they had met that first time. The couple were going to tell everyone soon enough. That day in fact.

Kenny, Hilary, Max, Rei and grandpa accompanied him to the hospital. He went to get Kai, leaving the rest to sign him out.

Kai was extremely happy to be getting out of the somber room. It had been making him depressed. Not literaly of course. That would have been too ironic. He was already dressed when Tyson bounced into the room and closed the door.

"No fair, I wanted to dress you!" he play whined.

"Good morning to you to, sunshine," Kai, very unlike his normal self, teased back. "You can always wrap my scarf on for me. I trust you brought it?"

"Would I let you down?" Tyson grinned at Kai's smirk. He walked around behind Kai and whispered in his ear, "Red or white?"

Kai shuddered. "I don't have a red one,"

"Yeah, you do." He dangled the piece of blood stained fabric in front of Kai's face.

"Why would you keep that?" Kai asked casualy. He certainly would have thrown it out.

"Because it reminds me of when we got together. Unoffiacialy." he added the last as an afterthought.

"What else does it remind you off?"

"When you could have died." Tyson grimaced and held the scarf away from him as if it were the devil.

"Exactly," Kai watched as Tyson balled the material up and tossed it in the garbage.

"White, then." Tyson whispered again. Kai responded the same as the first time; a shudder.

The delicate, soft material was wrapped around Kai's throat from the back and then crossed in the front to trail down his back. But Tyson didn't stop there. He started to stroke Kai's slender neck, which proved to be a very sesitive place for Kai moaned. Tyson nudged aside the scarf and started to kiss the skin. Kai moaned again but tried to get words out.

"Ty, they'll ... soon come ... looking for ...us." But he didn't really try and stop the boy.

Sure enough, as Kai had predicted, a collective gasp of surprise was heard from the doorway, but it wasn't registered until someone cleared their throat.

"Excuse us if we're interupting," Hilary started.

Kai looked up sharply, as did Tyson, but neither looked embaressed. They were both flushed with passion and looked startled to be found out in such away. Truth be told, Kai found it amusing.

"You aren't excused," Tyson grumbled but straightened up. No one seemed to have heard him but Kai, whose ear he had been right next to. The light blue-haired blader silently agreed. The group by the door apparently had heard grumbles that were said sarcasticaly. Hilary took it upon herself to retort.

"What was that Tyson? I wasn't the one just caught in an extremly ... uh, extremly ..." she couldn't find the right words, it seemed.

"An extremely heated moment?" Max suggested, raising one eyebrow. Rei snickered, Kenny just gapped and grandpa gave a knowing smile.

"Since when can he read minds?" Kai muttered but only Tyson heard. Tyson gave a snort as he surpressed laughter at the childish tone Kai said that in. He was surprised that Kai had been thinking that. Who would have thought it possible of the ice-like captain of before?

"Here," Grandpa said and threw something into the air which fluttered to the bed next to where Kai was sitting and Tyson was kneeling. It was the pictures of them as children with ice cream on their faces and the other a older version of the smaller one. With chocolate bars instead of ice cream.

"I can't belive I forgot those days ..." both Tyson and Kai muttered softly as the looked at each other. They were happy like they hadn't been in a long time. They finaly had someone to catch them if they fall.
