Okay, I gottwo reviews so far, and I guess I'll continue…
Sorry it's short...
Last time:
Riku looked down. He quietly asked the man as he turned away, "Do I really want to know what's going on in there? Sora wouldn't be the first friend I've lost and if…"
Also, sorry about a BAD typo in the first one, if anyone noticed it… of course, you may not be as sick minded as me, but…
Adam turned around again. Riku had stopped, unable to continue with the sentence. The boy's head was down; he didn't want his diamonds of sorrow to show… Crying really wasn't his thing…
Adam bent down and quietly told him, "I'm sorry, but you may not like what you'll find in there… I don't know how close you and the other boy are, but…"
Riku interrupted him, "Sora and I were- are best friends." He looked up. Adam had to stop himself from jumping back slightly. Riku's aquamarine eyes gleamed with a strange, defiant resolve. "Sora is not going to die!" he grumbled. He pushed past the doctor, leaving him completely dumbfounded. He made his way into the hospital, not bothering to see if the doctor was following.
Adam stared after the boy for a moment. He had seemed so… delicate a few moments before. Now he was a storming adolescent, charged with, who knows what? Anger? Adrenaline? It was so strange…
But then he remembered his role as the actual doctor in this situation and followed after Riku into the hospital.
Riku walked into the waiting room, his unidentifiable aura startling everyone one in the large room as he entered. He approached the help desk and demanded lowly, "Sora Hart?"
The nurse (who sincerely looked like she was going to wet her nice white skirt) quietly answered, her voice meek and timid, "Room 113, in the ICU. There's a small waiting room there too… You don't have to stay here…"
He nodded silently and proceeded to the elevator. Rooms 1-99 were on the first floor, 100-199 were on the second, and so on. He didn't feel like walking up the stairway; it would just impede his progress towards his friend.
As the elevator doors shut, a dark hand quickly reached through and pushed them open again. He found a panting Dr. Adam, a look of wild confusion in his gray eyes.
"Could you let a guy catch up?" he huffed as the doors dinged shut.
"Mmm." Riku grunted, not in the mood for talking.
It was the longest and most awkward elevator ride Riku had ever experienced (and that was saying something because it was only, like, his third…). The air seemed heavy with grim anticipation and the doctor was just as uncomfortable as the guest.
"Nice weather we've had lately…" Adam said lamely. Riku remembered the torrential storm that was raging outside and rolled his eyes.
The elevator dinged, signaling their arrival. Riku's stomach suddenly tied in a knot. His qualms were unbearable… Maybe he should've went home…
Adam got out first. Riku hesitantly followed, and was led by the doctor to the smaller waiting room outside Sora's room.
Riku stopped dead in front of the door. He heard sobs, most likely Sora's mother, finally broken down… He was greeted horribly by another (inconvenient) flashback…
Which you will find out about next time I update! Bye!
ducks under a rock before friends start to throw stuff
Sora: Why can't you just tell us what happened to me?
Me: 'Cause that's no fun!
Riku: It would make it more fun for us. You know, knowing what is going on…
Me: I can tell you Sora isn't feeling too well.
Sora: I'm feeling just fine, thank you!
Me: Shhh! Don't tell them that! whacks him again ( I'm so abusive to them… )
