Anna Pov:
Something's wrong I can feel it. Where's Ren? I start to jog around the hotel searching for him. He wasn't in his room, what if someone has attacked him? I break into a run now desperate to find him. I run past a corridor looking down it briefly, something catches my eye and I find my self back peddling to it. I gasp, oh no.
'Ren!' I scream. The site before me scares me. Ren's lying on the floor and the person next to him is, is Hao.
'What have you done to him!' I yell furious. He looks up and grins sadistically.
'Anna my dear nice to see you to.' He says as if were old friends who haven't seen each other in years. He slowly raises himself to his feet still smiling that awful smile.
'You bastard tell me what you've done to him!' I yell again. His smirk falls and his face darkens.
'I have done nothing to harm him, in fact I helped something your idiotic group can not manage. I'm disappointed I expected you to know what's happening to poor Ren. In time you Yoh and Ren will realise your destiny's.'
He snarls. What does that mean? How should I know what's going on
'Anna!' I hear Yoh call out from behind me. I turn to see everyone running towards us.
'Well this is nice the whole gooftroop is here.' Hao spits pulling my attention back to him. Yoh is now by my side sword drawn. Hao looks to him and smiles.
'Brother! Look after Ren for me. I need him to be strong when I come back and claim him as mine.' Hao says boldly. I feel something deep inside snap.
'What?' I scream demanding an answer. Hao simply laughs.
'See you soon brother.' He cackles once more before disappearing.
Yoh POV:
'Faust!' I yell to the blonde doctor who is rushing up to us. I look at Ren he is lying perfectly still on his side, there's no obvious signs of damage and that's what bothers me. If we could see the problem it would be a lot easier to deal with. But if it something in his mind it will be a lot harder to help. Faust begins examining Ren desperately trying to find a medical reason for Ren's condition.
'Look after Ren for me. I need him to be strong when I come back and claim him as mine.' Hao's voice dances through my mind. Claim him? What does Hao think Ren is a toy? Anger builds within me. I wont let him treat Ren like that. He's my best friend, I won't let Hao hurt him. I promised him I wouldn't let anyone hurt him every again after we rescued him from his uncle. I look over to Anna, who is desperately trying to conceal her worry and doubt and actually failing. I've never seen her not able to control her emotions and at the moment she looks as if she's about to break down and cry. I hope Anna can admit her feelings before its too late.
Anna POV:
'I'm sat staring at Ren. Faust and Yoh had carried him t his room and said he needed rest and we wouldn't know anything till he wakes up. Why does Hao want him? Why can't he just leave us alone. He has enough minions without trying to take Ren away from us. I have to admit how I feel about him. I've never felt like this before. Whenever I'm around him I feel all giddy and girly. When he's away I find myself longing for him to be beside me. And after that kiss my body yearns for him. When I saw him unconscious on the floor with Hao next to him fear gripped me tightly. I could barely breathe, my heart was pounding through my chest as if I had just ran a marathon and I felt like someone had slapped me. I feel a smile creep onto my lips as I watch him sleeping. He seems so fragile and innocent when asleep. Suddenly his eyes begin to flutter open, and he darts his golden orbs around the room.
'Hello.' I whisper making him focus on me.
'Hello.' he answers his voice raspy and strained.
'I'm sorry I didn't find you quicker.' I apologize quietly.
'It's ok.' He says forcing a smile.
'How are you feeling?' I ask still concerned. He closes his eyes briefly and swallows hard as if there is a giant lump in his throat.
'I'm ok.' He whimpers shakily.
'You don't sound it.' I declare sternly. I examine his sorry state again.
'Or look it for that matter.' He looks terribly ill. His pale and frail looking, his eyes are unfocused and half lidded and he constantly looks as though he's trying to catch his breathe. Leaving him looking very fragile and small in his large bed that appears to swallow him.
'I'm fine.' He reassures. I can see the way he's looking at me with stubborn resolve. I know this is one argument I will never win and decide to leave it there.
'Ok. I was just worried. I never want to see you hurt.' I utter blushing. He looks over my face for a while. Ohh come on say something anything.
'I know, I'm sorry if I worried you.' He mutters. He shifts about in his bed a bit before asking.
'Does ermm, does Faust, well.' He stuttered nonsense for a while before I let impatience get the better of me.
'Yes?' I snap quickly.
'Well does he know what's wrong with me?' I stare at him blankly. Truth is no one knows what's wrong with him except maybe Hao. We were hoping he knew what was going on with him. Faust said he couldn't see anything physically wrong with him, so therefore it must be a mental condition which Is far more terrifying.
'Anna?' He asks quietly prompting me to answer. I can see that he's scared it's in his eyes and the way he moves.
'Well he's not to sure, he thinks it's just down to stress.' I say with as much confidence as I can muster.
'Oh.' He begins to fiddle with the bed sheet. I can see that was not the answer he had been expecting.
'Do you remember what happened?' I ask curiously..
'Yes and no.' He says unsure. It worries me, it's not like Ren to be indecisive.
'What do you remember?' He starts to concentrate hard.
'Pain, my head hurt a lot. I left dinner, it hurt too much. I felt worried. I. I wanted help. Then someone.' He stopped and closed his eyes and grasped his hair in pain.
'Ren!' I yelled petrified that previous event were repeating themselves.
'It's nothing just a headache.' He gasps through clenched teeth.
'Please, let me help.' I yell. I grab the hot towel on the side and place it on his forehead. He opens his eyes slowly and smiles.
'Thanks.' I keep it pressed firm but gently to his head. I watch him gradually move his arms up and place his hands over mine. My heart quickens. Stay calm Anna. Suddenly the towel seems heavy and useless. We both let it fall down to the bed and hold the intense stare, still holding hands. Before I know it we're kissing. His hands move up to grab my waist and mine snake around his neck. His thumbs are making little circles over my skin and his tongue is massaging mine gently. I hear myself moan into his mouth pushing my body closer to his and let my hands wonder over his well toned chest.
'I'm going to go check on Ren!' I hear Faust exclaim from the hall. Me and Ren simply look at each other before quickly scrambling of each other, and trying to sort ourselves out. It wouldn't look to good if the doctor walked in to find Yoh's fiancée all over his patient! The door suddenly fly's open and the tall doctor merrily trots over to Ren.
'Ah good to see you're awake!' He says whilst he begins to poke and prod Ren looking for any signs of illness.
'Well you gave us quite a scare! But I think we can put this little episode down to stress. You seem to be fine now just do us a favour Ren and take it easy ok?' Faust advises, giving Ren one last look over before leaving.
'You will won't you?' I request.
'Will what?' He asks clueless.
'Take it easy?' I reply. He doesn't look as if he likes the sound of that.
'If not for yourself then for me?' I ask hopeful. His glare softens to a smile.
'Oh I suppose. For you.' He says sitting up regaining our closeness. He cups my face and kisses me tenderly again. I now know exactly what my feelings are. Love.
