Oh and dont ask me why I give the chapter's a name at the top but not before the chapter actually starts. I'm just that lazy lol.


At the hospital, Risa sat in the waiting room, impacient and worried. This wasn't how she had always drempt of waiting for someone "dramaticly" in a hospital. Her vision was pacing back and forth in a quiet empty room but damn, was she wrong. The room was packed! Little children were crying and whining to their parents. Either the parents helped sooth them, or told them to shut up.

"When are they going to be done?" She tapped her foot on the cold floor, annoying the woman beside her cradling her baby. As if someone came up and whispered in her ear the thing she was watitng for, a nurse announced, "HIWATARI!" and Risa raced up to the desk, leaving a cloud of dust behind her.

The nurse looked at her oddly. "You're his family that came here."

"I'm not part of his family..." she said softly, giving them the "sweet girl" act. "I'm his...uh...friend. We're really close and I came here with him in the ambulance." the woman was not sure what to believe but then sighed and let her in. Risa ran in the hall in the blink of an eye. The nurse was going to tell her where he was but she didn't need the woman's help. As Risa ran, she spotted the name "Hiwatari" on the door and knocked. A deep male's voice said "come in" and she pryed the door open slowly. The minute she was in, the brunette was gazing around. There were so many bright lights. It wouldn't be something she would want to wake up to.

The her attention was pulled to the boy laying in the hospital bed. Once again, what she predicted was totally wrong. Risa was expecting him to be laying there, looking rested and comfortable but instead, his face had a pained and struggling expression plastered on it. Risa softly sat down on the bed but still it made the noise of paper crumpling. "He should be up soon. It just seems he fainted from exaustion. Why don't you try giving him these pills," the doctor handed Risa a bottle of priscripted pills. "Make sure he eats well and gets some good rest ok?" Risa nodded and the doctor left the room.

She stared at the resting Satoshi. She started rubbing his thigh as if it would make him more comfortable but also so he would know she was there. Risa noticed something weird at that moment. She hadn't had one thing on her mind. Risa was just doing things without thinking and it scared her.

As Risa seemed to be dazed, Satoshi began to grown and turn over. She noticed and jumped up. "Satoshi are you awake"
"unnnnnnnnnggggggggggggmmmmmmmm" Well...at least we know he's alive. She softly shook his shoulder until he could actually talk in whole sentences. "Wha...where am I?" he quickly blinked and reached his hands out to sit up but found nothing.

"Satoshi, you're in the hospital." she said. Satoshi lifted his head to see glaring white lights.

"No." he moaned. "I shouldn't be here. I'm just fine. This happens and I just wake up normally in my room..."
"But..."

"Why the hell did you bring me to a hospital?" he shouted. Satoshi slowly pushed himself to sit up only to see Risa crying.

"I'm sorry. I was worried and I didn't want to leave you. Plus you were alone." she sobbed. "What if you never woke again?"

Satoshi was now filled with both confusion and regret. He sighed and layed back down. "I didn't mean to make you cry. If it mattered so much to you, it's fine."

The two were silent for the next couple minutes. Then, Risa broke the silence by asking, "Why do you live alone?" Still relaxed, but Satoshi didn't really want to tell her but if he didn't he knew she would be breathing down his neck for an answer.

"I told you before, personal reasons."

"Like...a phobia?" Satoshi smirked at the remark and nodded.

"Yeah. A phobia."

There was another long pause. Risa stood up and leaned on a wall for her own comfort. "I got a question." Satoshi didn't say anything but she knew he was listening. "Do you know the difference between being alone and feeling lonely?"

"Hm..."

"The difference...You can choose to be alone but you can't choose to feel as if no one was by your side. I think that may be one thing we have in common. We both choose to be alone but end up feeling lonely." More slience...was this what hospitals were really made for, silence?

"Who are you?" the blue head asked randomly.

"Are you starting to get amenesia? That can't be good." she muttered. "I gotta get the doctor." Risa started toward the door but stopped at hearing Satoshi chuckling.
"Risa, there's no need for a doctor." she still stared at him oddly. "It's just something I would never expect from you." They both started laughing softly with eachother.

Satoshi strained to stand up but he did. Risa rushed to his aid but he insisted he didn't need it. The girl decided not to listen. "Can we leave this place?With such a crowded place, it feels like someone's watching..." Risa wasn't sure if he was serious or not, thanks to the tone of his voice but they didn't talk about it. Risa checked him out and the two walked out of the hospital together, joking about how weird the place was.


Alright, I'll be putting chapter 3 up sooner or later. PLEASE REVIEW! thankies!
