YYF14: - -# Shut up... R&R, peoples!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yusuke walked toward his apartment with Koenma in his arms, ignoring the stares of passerby.

He stood at the apartment door, trying to decide whether or not he should live with his mom again.

He shook his head and sighed. He didn't have a choice. He didn't want to impose on Keiko. He opened the door and entered, quickly going to his room.

Yusuke lay Koenma on his bed, then locked the door so Atsuko couldn't get in. Then Yusuke decided to try and wake Koenma up.

He shook Koenma's shoulder. Koenma stirred, then turned onto his side and curled up. Yusuke smiled. Koenma seemed grateful to be asleep, so Yusuke decided not to try to wake him up anymore.

------

About half an hour later, Koenma sat up, rubbing his eyes. He blinked, realizing he wasn't in Reikai.

"Hey, K-chan. Finally wake up?"

Koenma's eyes brightened, looking to the side.

"Yu-chan! I missed you so much!"

Yusuke smiled. "I missed you too. I haven't seen you for about… almost four months?"

Koenma nodded. "Yeah…"

"Botan said you didn't eat much. Do you want something?"

Koenma nodded slightly.

"Okay. C'mon into the kitchen, and we'll get some ramen."

Yusuke got up and unlocked the door, but turned around quickly, hearing a gasp and a soft 'thud'.

"Koenma? You okay?"

Koenma stood up carefully, putting all his weight on his right foot.

"My foot hurts."

Yusuke frowned. "Try to walk again. Carefully."

Koenma gingerly put weight on his left foot, but fell to his knees.

"Yusuke, I can't walk."

Yusuke sighed. "Okay, I'll get the ramen and bring it in here. When we're done eating, then we'll take a look at it."

Koenma nodded, sitting on the bed.

Yusuke left the room, and came back a few minutes later with two bowls of ramen, handing one to Koenma.

Koenma took the plate and the fork Yusuke handed him and began to eat. Yusuke nibbled on his own ramen, not really hungry.

Koenma quickly finished his ramen, giving Yusuke an idea.

"You can have mine if you're still hungry," he said. "I'm not."

Koenma smiled. "Thanks, Yusuke."

When he was done eating, Yusuke put the plates away and reentered the room.

"Now let's take a look at that foot."

Koenma carefully took off his shoe, revealing a mass of bruises.

Yusuke recoiled slightly. "What'd he do? Stomp on it?"

Koenma shook his head. "All I know is it's broken."

"Which part?" Yusuke asked. "There's more than one bone in your foot."

Koenma stared at him. "You paid attention in class?"

Yusuke shrugged. "I'm more surprised I attended." He shook his head. "Still, what part?"

Koenma lightly touched the area where the bruises were most concentrated.

"There, where these joints meet the middle. Something's not connecting, and it hurts."

Yusuke frowned, tracing the area with his finger. "Yeah, I can tell. Even when you're not moving it?"

"When I'm not moving it, not that much, but when I do move it… you can imagine."

Yusuke winced. "Should Botan heal it?"

Koenma shook his head. "No, she's tried to heal my cuts, and that makes them hurt worse."

"Well… maybe we can ask Yukina."

"Why Yukina?"

"Because your dad knows Botan and how she heals, but he doesn't know Yukina as well as he knows Botan. Maybe it'll be different. We might as well try."

"But how would we get to Yukina? She's at Genkai's, and I can't walk."

Yusuke thought for a moment, then sighed in defeat. "Dunno."
