Summary: I thought I told you to take care of yourself, isn't the omamori enough to keep you safe?

Flower used: Azalea; keep safe or take care of yourself

He was doomed and he knew it.

Hattori Heiji panted while leaning against the brick wall and clutching his side, blood was rushing out of the big gash, his green shirt was darker then the normal since it was stained with his blood. His sight was blurring and he was feeling very dizzy.

He slid down onto his knees, a gallon or so blood was already spilled, he clenched his eyes tight then opened them again. His other hand instinctively reached out towards his neck and clasped onto the omamori Kazuha made for both of them.

He breathed out loudly and smirked slightly,

"You ahou, I thought this omamori was suppose to keep me safe." he whispered half-heartedly to no one in particular.

Slowly his surrounding darkened until everything was completely black.

Beeping sounds was the first thing Heiji heard after his black-out, he squinted slightly to see his surroundings.

Everything was white, he's in heaven now. Ha! And Kazuha told him he wouldn't be aloud into heaven. A feeling of pride and regret overflowed him. He didn't want to die but he sure proved Kazuha wrong, he gloated mentally until…

"Heiji!" a familiar voice called out, worry and sadness was evident in the tone used.

Heiji squinted again, trying to make sure if what he thought was right. Those beeping sounds were getting a bit annoying.

He could barely make out the figure beside him. Kazuha was crying, her eyes were red and puffy and she looked like someone had cut her air supply for a long time, her hair was a mess and she had her hands clasped together.

Heiji struggled just to open his eyes.

"Heiji! You're awake!" Kazuha shouted with so much relief.

Heiji winced, must she scream so loud everytime!

"Ahou." he told her, his voice rough and worn out, like he had been shouting all week.

Kazuha glared at Heiji half-heartedly and she sniffled. She just couldn't stay angry at him, especially not in this condition.

"You're the Ahou! I told you to be careful, isn't the omamori enough to keep you safe!" she sobbed. Heiji just stared at her.

"I was so worried…" Kazuha continued in a soft voice, muffled when she buried her face in the hospital blanket Heiji was using. "They said you lost a lot of blood and…and…that you don't have much chance of making it…"

Kazuha raised her head and looked at Heiji with relieved eyes though it was still filled with tears, she bit her lower lip and inhaled deeply.

Heiji felt guilty…wait— if he lost a lot of blood then who? He and his father don't have the same blood type and he knows his mother can't donate blood, so who? He looked at Kazuha.

"Zuha…" he started and Kazuha looked at him a bit startled he hasn't used that nickname on her since they had started Junior high.

"What is it?" she responded a little softer than her usual tone.

"Who gave me the blood, I know Mom an' Dad can't transfuse blood with me?" he asked.

Kazuha hesitated slightly and showed him the wound that a needle had probably made. Heiji felt a little confused before picking up the pieces and placing everything in order.

"Did…did you," he felt a little stupid, but he remember Kazuha was scared of those injection needles, so why did she.

"They said you lost a lot of blood and…and…that you don't have much chance of making it…"

It hit him, so she did for him.

Kazuha nodded slightly at his question, she bit her lip ever so slightly a habit out of nervousness.

Heiji's gaze at her softened and she blushed a little.

After some silence, both of them regained their normal atmosphere. Arguing verbally. And some 'ahou's and insults and a little blaming later, Kazuha started to fall asleep beside the hospital bed.

Her head laying on Heiji's bed and her whole body seated on a large comfy chair. Heiji huffed, annoying woman, he thought then he remembered when she showed him the wound of the injection needle, and he smiled a little and gazed down at the sleeping ponytailed female.

And that was the only time he noticed something on the bedside table.

Flowers.

A bunch of beautifully arranged flowers in a vase and a card was leaning on it.

Heiji reached out and took the card, he opened it and read the message.

'You ahou,

Isn't the omamori I made for enough to keep you out of trouble! I swear dead bodies and cases follow you wherever you go, hope this will add protection. Guess what kind of flowers they are and you'll know what I mean.

Get well soon, you ahou.

Kazuha'

Everything was written in a clean scribble, totally Kazuha's hand writing.

Heiji twitched, 'ahou', she just had to use that word but he'd just let that pass for now. He looked at her again, she looked to peaceful to wake up and yell at, he'd just do that later.

He examined the flowers on the table, 'Guess what kind of flowers they are and you'll know what I mean.' he tried to remember what kind of flowers they were, he did have and A for his Biology.

Then it clicked. He remembered those kinds of flowers, they were Azaleas. But what does she mean? Azaleas, what do they mean? She said it'll add protection, and then he remembered what Kazuha was reciting in lunch just last week.

" Roses means love and passion , Alliums means unity or humility, Asters means dainty and afterthought, Azaleas means keep safe or take care of yourself,…"

Keep safe or take care of yourself…

Heiji smiled, not his usual cocky grin but a genuine smile and stared at the sleeping girl beside him.

That little worrywart.

A/n: I may need to clear a few things... I have no idea if Heiji's Mom canor cannot donate blood, or if HE and his father have the same blood type or if Heiji and Kazuha have the same blood type, I got the later idea from Ran and Shinichi(they both have the same blood type), so I just need to clear that up...

I tried to squish the original LONG story...12 pages, then I squished it to 3 I hope it's still good, so anyways...Make me happier, read more better written stories, REVIEW!

Please and Thank you!
