Warning: If you don't agree with yaoi or just in sexual themes in general just push the back arrow on the top left part of the computer screen with your mouse. We all know how do to that. ;) There are a couple scenes from the game, but it doesn't reveal anything important. (I hope…)
I want to thank GinyaxAlvissForever for your quick response of reviewing my story. (You were the first one to review after all, and I felt like you were waiting for my story to come up. It kind of surprised me when there was a review the first day.) I was going to wait to write this when a couple more people reviewed, but you're review almost made me hyperventilate (from excitement of course) that I had to start writing the second chapter right away. Thank you.
Awww! Don't drown me in cookies xXxSouleKeeperxXx I wrote the second part xD Thank you for your comment though. It really made my night when I came home from work.

It wasn't like he wasn't expecting this to happen, but he couldn't help but feel a little irritated, and a little remorseful, that CR-S01 had been avoiding him the whole week and a half. This had to stop, and Gabriel knew it. The others were beginning to question what was happening between the two and it was starting to get on his nerves.
Of course he wasn't going to go up to the kid and demand to get over that he had a dream of them having sex. (Even though it wasn't a dream. It had actually happened.) Because he wasn't supposed to know what the kid had dreamt in the first place. He could tell that CR-S01 was uncomfortable when he past him in the hallways. He's eyes would lower to the ground, and he would start to breathe heavily. The amber eyed doctor noticed that the kid would pick up his pace, just to rush past him knowing that it would be the only way to not engage into a conversation.
Gabriel sighed helplessly as he was actually happy for once. The Director hadn't noticed anything different with CR-S01's behavior and so did Maria. Maria, he hoped, would never pick up on the weird atmosphere between the two male doctors, or she would be all over it like flies on a dead animal carcass on the side of a road.
Tomoe was the first one to notice the kid's sudden change in mood. She did have a crush on him after all. Hank noticed soon after, but they're both the type who wouldn't force questions upon a person who didn't want to explain.
It wasn't until he heard his patient cough violently that he looked up from the chart he was looking at. His son, Joshua, was his current patient. Even though Joshua was his son, the kid had no idea that the man in front of him was his father. "That cough, didn't it hurt?"
His son gave him a confused expression, "Was it supposed to hurt? I'm telling you doctor, there's nothing wrong with me."
"Right, then you won't have any problems showing me the hand you used to cough on." Gabriel said, putting the chart on the desk next to him. Joshua intently kept his hands down on his lap, shaking his head "no," and gave the doctor another confused expression.
"I already told you that there's nothing wrong with me."
Damn stubborn kid! He hissed as he thought. How am I supposed to see if there's blood on his hand or not? Oh! I know. "Hey Joshua lift up your shirt for me one more time."
"Okay…?" The boy lifted up his shirt waiting for the doctor to exam him. Gabriel, who looked like he was looking for something asked him to pull his shirt back down. As Joshua did so, Gabriel noticed a splat of red where Joshua had lifted his shirt.
"Hey kid, why are you trying to hide your symptoms from me?"
"Huh…! Wh-Why would you say that?" Joshua asked nervously.
"I know you coughed up blood earlier. It's on your clothing."
"Oh… I-it's just some blood! I'm full of the stuff. I'm fine."
Gabriel sighs, "Seriously who'd he inherit this attitude from…? Well, we're done talking… I need you to undergo a few tests for me. RONI, get approval for an X-ray."
"Yes, Doctor. The X-ray examination is now available."
"Okay RONI, let's go." He said grabbing his chart from his desk and left the room without another word to Joshua. Shutting the door behind RONI, he made his way to the Image Analysis Lab where Maria was leaning against the door with her arms crossed her chest. She looked at him with a glare. "What's your problem?"
"You, you colossal ass!" She yelled at him. "You got Tomoe all worried with the kid for some reason." She barked; moving out of the way, so Gabriel can go through.
"I did nothing." He told her with a snort.
"Tomoe says that the kid's been avoiding you and now she's all worried about him. He won't tell her anything ether." Maria explained leaning against the only table in the lab. Gabriel logged on to the computer and started to look threw the X-rays.
"Can we talk about this later, Maria? I'm kind of in the middle of something." He said to the first response doctor.
"No, Gabe we can't." She snapped. "It's your fault that Tomoe is all… Hey aren't you listening to me?" She was about to slap him, but she didn't, seeing that Gabe had found something on the X-ray.
"There's a cave-in in the gastric wall. The contrast medium has settled in it. Well, this is definitely proof. He can't make excuses anymore." He said to RONI.
"I agree, Doctor. New symptom observed: 'Caved- In Gastric Wall'."
"That's good in all, but can you at least talk to Tomoe or the kid. We don't need any distractions." Maria followed Gabriel out of the Lab and to the exam room door.
"Just wait here. I have to talk to my patient first. I promise I'll listen after I do so." Maria scowled, but nodded, noticing that Gabriel was being completely, and she may add, almost scary serious. She nodded, letting the male doctor go back into his exam room. "Thank you." He said quietly to himself. Joshua was still sitting in the chair with a plain look on his face. Gabriel sat down sitting his chart down on his lap. "I have proof that there's something wrong with your stomach. You ready to talk now?"
His son gave him a slightly irritated expression and mumbled, "Urgh...My tummy hurts once in a while. But that's it! "
"Hmm... So he does have stomachaches. What an idiot... I bet they hurt a whole lot too... Well, RONI, he's finally coming clean with us. You writing all this down?"
"Yes, Doctor. New symptom observed: 'Stomachache'." RONI chimed.
Joshua continued, "Yeah, I don't feel like eating when it hurts. What's wrong with that?"
"You don't feel like eating, huh? Well, given your stomach's condition, I'm not surprised."
"Everyone keeps making a fuss about it, but it's nothing! Really! Doctor, I'm okay. Seriously!"
"Alright," Gabriel checked RONI's screen to review the new symptoms he found. "Now is there anything else you're hiding? This is your chance..."
"I-I'm not hiding anything! I really am okay." Joshua insisted.
"Man... This little runt... Time to go back to the office and continue with the diagnosis." Gabriel muttered under his breath. "I guess this could be a good time to go talk to Maria..."
"Are you sure Doctor?" RONI asked, as Dr. Cunningham walked out of the exam room. "There could be something wrong with your son..."
"You mean the patient, RONI." He corrected the robot.
"Yes, Doctor, you're patient."
"Took you long enough, geez." Maria said with a frown on her face. "Are you going to listen to me now?"
"Yeah, yeah, I'm listening." Gabriel rolled his eyes.
"I want you to go talk to the kid. I'm sick of seeing Tomoe all worked up about it, because it's your fault!" She said accusingly. "I don't care when you do it, but make sure you do it soon, or I'll swear that I'll bet you to a bloody pulp and feed to a hungry wolf or something." Maria threatened before she walked away from the male doctor.
"She can be over dramatic sometimes..." Gabriel sighed. "Let's finish this case before I go corner the kid somewhere."
"Yes, Doctor."

"You're having a relapse of gastric ulcers. Which I'm guessing hurts. A lot. Why do you keep trying to hide your symptoms from me?" Gabriel asked his son.
"Th-There's nothing wrong with me... I really didn't notice it." Joshua explained.
"Just stop it!" Gabriel snapped, "There's no way you're all right!"
"Urgh..."
"Now listen to me," Gabriel said continuing on, "I don't know why you're pretending to be fine and I don't care why! But the more you keep this up, the more you make everyone around you worry about you!"
"...But..."
"Whoa, there's no need to explain. If you don't want to talk about it, then that's fine. I've gotten permission from Lisa-I mean your mother-already. RONI, get the examinations ready. If he's not going to talk then I'll find out myself!"
"...Understood. Doctor, please calm down."
"...O-Oh... Sorry..."
"...The X-rays, CT, and analysis exams are now available."
Gabriel looked at the X-rays once he was in the analysis room. He noticed the X-ray on the patients spine that there where black spots, indicating an abnormal break in bowl gas in the intestine. The third CT scan showed that Joshua's pancreas was swollen. After not finding anything abnormal on the other CT scans, he decided to go back to the exam room.
Joshua sat there with a gloomy look on his face. "..."
"We'll, I may have been a bit harsh earlier," Gabriel admitted, "I wasn't being professional, but you also—"
"Doctor?" RONI interrupted.
"I-I know. Just be quiet...! Anyways, I want to cure you completely. And everyone is worried about you."
"..."
"Joshua, will you please cooperate with the exams?"
"...Sorry."
"...?"
"...I'm sorry. I'm sorry...!"
"Hey, hey...! I-It's all right... Don't cry...!"
Joshua sniffled a bit and said, "But it's all my fault. I didn't want my mom or that nurse to worry about me..."
"...! Joshua..."
"...I'm really sorry. I just made everyone worry even more." The boy straightened himself up, "I won't hide anything anymore. I wanna get out of the hospital! So please."
"...Yeah, I understand."
"Umm... Actually, my tummy feels a little weird. Can you check it out, Doctor?"
"Of course, leave it to me. RONI, are you ready!"
"Yes, Doctor. I am fully prepared."
"All right. Let's continue the exam!"

CR-S01 sat in his cell, avoiding everyone. He couldn't help but feel a little guilty that he was making everyone so worried about him. But he didn't deserve that kind of attention from the others in this hospital! The kid, who was slumped over sitting on his bed, lay back so he was lying down. He closed his eyes, but opening them once again. He didn't feel like sleeping, fearing that he would have another wet dream.
For the last week and a half, he kept having the same dream play over and over again. Him and Gabriel together, having sex over and over again without a care in the world. What he hated the most was that he didn't really mind the dreams. They were comforting in a sense, but now he was forcing himself to think that he was sick of having the same dream again, and again.
The dreams just made everything worse. He couldn't look at Dr. Cunningham in the eyes anymore. He can't talk to the other doctors without remembering his prolong dreams.
His logic told him that he should talk to someone about it, probably Dr. Cunningham, because he was the source of the problem, but his gut kept telling him that it would just go away sooner or later... But the original dream just felt real and alive. The pleasure, the embarrassment, and the passion felt so real to him, that he started to question its creditability. Was it a dream or was it real?
"Damn it!" He hissed to himself. Why would Dr. Cunningham lie about something like that...? "Wait..." CR-S01 sat back up from his bed. If he had lied to him there had to be a reason behind it. Maybe Dr. Cunningham was ashamed that he slept with another man. Or maybe it was because he wanted to play a joke on him...? No, the kid thought, Dr. Cunningham isn't the type to joke about something like that...
The kid had to admit that Dr. Cunningham was a sarcastic type, but he didn't sound like he was being sarcastic when he was explaining to RONI that the kid been asleep the whole time while he waited for the lock down to be over. Why would anyone be sarcastic about having sex with someone anyway...wait...yeah they're would be people who were like that...
And there was a question about the blue and red vials. Did the red vial actually make him fall asleep the whole time, or was he horny and ended up having sex with Dr. Cunningham? And what did the blue vial do to Dr. Cunningham? Did it just make him relaxed the whole time, or did he become relaxed and horny? They were all good questions, the kid concluded, but how was he going to get them answered?
He could try to talk to Dr. Cunningham, but what if he just ran away again like last time? The kid grabbed a chunk of his hair and squeezed it slightly, not wanting to cause himself too much pain. He knew he was going to run away if he had an escape rout, so where would be the best place to talk to Dr. Cunningham and not be able to run away…?
"The roof!" CR-S01 concluded. There was only one way up and one way down, well actually someone could try jumping off the roof, but they would more likely have died from that height. I wouldn't jump off the roof, would I? The kid questioned himself. I'm not suicidal…
"What are you doing?" Detective Holden asked. The kid almost jumped back, surprised to see the man who caught him at the Cumberland incident.
"I…"
"Doesn't matter, I cleared you for surgery." He threw a chart inside the bars of the kid's prison. "Hurry up, or some other doctor will take your place." He walked out of the room without another word.
"I wonder…?" CR-S01 grabbed the chart and looked at the patient. Ten year old Joshua Cunningham has Wermer's syndrome and needs surgery stat. "Cunningham…? Is this Dr. Cunningham's son?" Dr. Cunningham! That means he's probably assisting the surgery!

"Careful with the anesthesia! It's a Hardy procedure." Gabriel said the Emma.
"Yes sir."
"Doctor…"
"You…!" The diagnostics' doctor said surprised.
"Please let me do this operation." CR-S01 said to the other male doctor. "Please, let me save this life."
"The room is yours, Doctor. Now hurry up and get ready for surgery!"
Gabriel couldn't believe his eyes on how fast the kid was working on the tumors in his son's body. Drain, cut, and extract. It was like the only thing that was going threw in the kid's head was saving his son's life. The kid was now operating on the pancreas. The treatment was similar, but found tearing in the pancreas. Cut, forceps, sutures, synthetic membranes, and antibiotic gel…
It wasn't until the kid started to remove tumors on the stomach when Gabriel started to feel uneasy. He didn't show it of course. The kid was about to suture for the last time in the stomach he heard the kid say, "What…!" realizing that he had dropped the needle.
"The needle fell in? Dammit… Why at a time like this…?" Gabriel hissed. "We don't have much time! The patient won't last long…!"
"…! Set the ultrasound wavelength for multiple analysis!"
"The ultrasound? What's that gonna do?"
"The needle's metal. It'll appear as a shadow if we scan!" The kid informed.
"All right… The ultrasound's ready. Let's hurry!" Gabriel felt his heart jump into his esophagus. He could only watch the other doctor search around for the needle, while holding his breath. He had to stop once in a while to drain up loose blood and stop any harmful hemorrhaging. It wasn't until he heard the kid say, "There it is!" when he started to breathe again. "Whew… I was pretty worried for a moment there." He admitted.
"Taping the sutured incision...and the operation's done." The kid sighed. "Operation complete. Let this disease pass from this world…"
"…Uh, well, y'know… To be serious for once, thanks for saving this patient." He thanked. Right away he noticed the kid wasn't going to give him any eye contact from now on. "Kid…"
"Dr…Dr. Cunningham… Can we go talk somewhere…privately?" CR-S01 still kept his eyes down, staring at the floor below him.
"Sure kid, just follow me to my office and we can-"
"No…!" The kid shuddered from being to loud. "Can we go talk on the roof…?"
"The roof…? Okay then, we'll go talk on the roof-Hey wait up!" Gabriel walked after CR-S01 who has left the room after Gabriel had said "okay." The kept a good pace in front of Gabriel, making sure if the other make got too close to him, he wouldn't try to run away. He took long strides up the stairs that lead to the roof. He listened to Gabriel's foot steps. It was clear that he was taking his sweet time up the stairs. The diagnostics doctor made sure he stepped up every single stair step on his way up to the roof.
The kid opened the door rather quickly, making his way in the middle of the roof top, where a helicopter would land if it needed an emergency landing or something… He flinched when he heard the door close, hearing Dr. Cunningham stop right in front of the door.
"The reason you wanted to come up here was because there's only one way to get up and only one way to get down." The older doctor concluded. "Of course there is one other way to get down, but I don't think you're willing to jump off and die."
The kid nodded to himself and gradually turned himself around. He noticed, when his eyes looked up to look at Gabriel, that the older doctor was leaning against the door with his arms crossed, waiting for him to start talking. CR-S01 took a deep breath, but nothing came out when he started to speck. Just air…
"You can tell me, kid. I'm not going to tell anyone." Gabriel said, making sure he wasn't sounding sarcastic or mean. "What's going on in your head that's making you keep your distance from me?"
"I thought it was real, but then logic keeps telling me that it was only a dream…" The kid lets his eyes drop again. "I keep dreaming about it… Every night, and they won't go away…"
"What kind of dreams are you having?"
The kid gulped nervously. He didn't want to tell Gabriel, but he answered, "Intimate ones…"
"And these are the only dreams you've been having?"
The kid nodded.
"Can I ask how intimate these dreams are?"
"…I…um…" The kid's face flushed deeply. He kept his head low to the ground.
"Hey, don't get embarrassed." Gabriel soothed. "You don't have to explain if you don't want too. Is it only kissing? Touching? Is it something more intimate than that?"
"It's…um more intimate than that…"
"So you're having an intercourse in your dream?"
The kid nodded again.
"So you're having the same dream over and over again with you have an intercourse with… Is it with someone you know? Is it someone who works here at this Hospital?"
"It's someone who works here at the Hospital."
"Is it a doctor, nurse or even a director at this Hospital?"
"He's a doctor at this Hospital…"
"Oh so the person in your dreams is a man?" Gabriel couldn't help but crack a smile at the kid. "I thought it was at least a female."
"Don't make fun of me…!" The kid exclaimed, finally looking up at Gabriel. "I can't control what I dream about."
"Yeah, yeah I know that." The older doctor snorted. "Sorry, anyway, so the person in your dreams is a male doctor who works at this hospital. Is this male doctor me?"
"Yes-Oh wait a minute!" The kid clasped his hands over his mouth. Damn it! Why did I say that without any hesitation?
"Thanks for being honest with me, kid. It explains a lot."
Line Break
Why do I still feel awkward when I'm around Dr. Cunningham still! The kid mentally screamed at himself. It had been three days since he confessed to the older male, and yet he still felt like there was something missing from that conversation. I told him and he seemed fine with it, and now I still can't look at him! It's so awkward being around him…
He couldn't really complain though. His outer appearance when he was around Gabriel was okay, so everyone was back to their usually selves, and not worrying about him anymore. His inner appearance was another story. The kid's heart rate would increase when he was around the other male, it just didn't make any sense to him. His stomach would become lighter also, as if he was nervous about something. "Butterflies," he heard people call it.
CR-S01 wanted so badly to ask why he felt this way. He wasn't sick or anything. Asking Gabriel was out of the question, and Maria would probably harass him, or some how take it the wrong way. Hank might be a good person to talk to, but what if he found it uncomfortable to talk about something like that? There was Tomoe! She was easy to talk too. "I'll just ask her for advice!" He concluded.
"Ask who for advice?" Maria barged in with a tray of food in her hands. "Are you talking to yourself?" She said mockingly. "Do you always talk to yourself?"
"…"
"What ever," she shrugged, handing the tray to the kid. "What kind of advice do you need? I can probably help." She brought up a chair and sat down next to the bars of the kid's cell.
"…I would rather not talk about it…with you…" The kid said grabbing the tray and sat it down on his bed.
"Bastard, why can't you talk to me?" She asked with a snarl.
"Because you'll more likely take it the wrong way, or make fun of me." The surgeon explained. "I would actually like to talk to Dr. Tachibana."
"Tomoe…? Oh sure!" She stood up sounding excited. "I'll go get her for you." She exclaimed and left the room without another word. CR-S01 flinched back a little, startled by Maria's sudden outcry of enthusiasm. It wasn't long before Maria came back, pushing Tomoe forward into the room with a huge grin on her face.
"B-but Maria. This is out of the blue." She said, trying not to fall over from the other female doctor pushing her forward.
"See yeah!" Maria left the room, slamming the door shut behind her.
"I'm sorry about that." Tomoe apologized. "Did you need something from me?"
"Yes…I…um…need advice."
"Oh!" The Japanese doctor sat in the chair where Maria was previously sitting. "I don't know how much help I'll be, but what kind of advice do you need?"
"Um… It's…" The kid paused, characteristically keeping his eyes low. "Every time I'm around this 'person'…I feel nervous…and I feel like I shouldn't because I told this 'person' about something I haven't told anyone else, and now every time I'm around this 'person,' I feel like my heart's trying to break out of my body…"
"I see." Tomoe brought her fingertips to her lips and began to giggle lightly. "I know what's wrong with you."
"Can it be cured?"
Tomoe giggled a little bit more before saying, "You're in love, silly."

"The kid looks better now. Thanks for talking to him." Maria was sitting on Gabriel's coffee table while eating a bag of potato chips. "What did you say to him anyway?"
"Actually he went to me, and can you not eat my food!" Gabriel snapped at Maria. He was sitting at his desk writing down his diagnosis for a current patient. "Geez."
"What did he say?" She said in between chewing.
"I told him I won't tell anyone, so can you please put down my bag of chips and leave."
"What ever, lame-ass," she jumped off the coffee table and sat the bag of chips down. "Still, thank you for talking to him." After she left Gabriel looked at the door dumbfound.
"Did she hit her head? Seriously that was a little creepy." Gabe told himself. Returning to his diagnosis he realized he had written down something completely random. He had written down that the patient had, 'CR-carpal tunnel Syndrome', instead of 'Raynaud's Syndrome'. "How the Hell did I get CR-carpal tunnel Syndrome from Raynaud's Syndrome?" (These two Syndromes are explained after the chapter ends.) CR…? Hey isn't that how the kid's prison number starts?
"Dr. Cunningham?" A small knock can from his office door.
"You can come in." He half grumbled, erasing 'CR-carpal tunnel Syndrome', and changing it to 'Raynaud's Syndrome'. "Tomoe what brings you to my office, not that I'm complaining or anything?"
"I would like to talk to you about the kid." She said closing the door behind her. "I found out something important that I think you should know about."
"Hmm, it's not like you to go talking about someone behind their back." Gabriel said, closing the patients' file. "But what did you find out about him?"
"Something happened between you two, and now it seems as if it bloomed into something special." She started saying, making her way to the couch to sit down.
"What are you talking about?" The diagnostic doctor was confused on what Tomoe was trying to imply. He turned his chair, so he was facing her.
"He's in love with you, Dr. Cunningham."
"In love with me? Did he really say that to you?"
"He wanted my advice about his feelings about a certain person. I just filled in the blanks." She explained to Gabriel. "I didn't want to ask him in fear that I would make him feel embarrassed, but I would really like to know what happened between you two."
"I see," the male doctor nodded. "But I'd rather not tell." He said honestly.
"You don't have to tell me, I don't want to be the one to pry." She got up as if she was going to leave.
"The kid and I had an intercourse, and I made him believe that it was all a dream."
"Oh…!" Tomoe stopped dead in her tracks. "That explains it." She sat back down, showing no signs of disappointment or anger. "When did this happen?"
"Almost two weeks ago. It was on the day of the emergency lock down."
"And what made you two have an intercourse in the first place?"
Gabriel pinched the bridge of his nose, "Geez Tomoe, when did you becomes a therapist?" Tomoe only giggled at his comment, so Gabriel kept talking, "Earlier that day I received two vials. One was blue and one was red. I had no idea what was in them. RONI ended up scanning them, but didn't know what most of the compound was in each. When the kid and I were pretty much stuck in my office, I drank the blue vial and the kid drank the red vial. After all that we ended up having sex…"
"Did you ever found out what was exactly in the two vials?"
"Yeah I called my friend who sent it to me. He told me I was supposed to use it with my wife. That really backfired on me…"
"Dr. Cunningham..." She said in the most serious voice she could bring herself to do. "Do you love him?" Gabriel started at her blankly for a few seconds and sighed. He turned to put the documents back into his patients file.
"I can't love him back." He finally said, "I was hoping that the kid wouldn't feel anything after we had sex, but I guess that's another thing that just back fired in my face." He sighed, "That's why I made him think it was all a dream, so he wouldn't have an intimate attachment with me. It'll just hurt him when he has to go back to that fridge of his."
"You had good intensions," she said in her usual sweet voice. "You feel something for him, but you want to deny it..."
"I'm surprised you're not mad at me." Gabriel had gotten out of his desk chair and had walked to the main door of his office. "I practically had an affair with my wife that I'm planning on divorcing. Doesn't that make me an even worse husband and father?"

CR-S01's eyes shot open startled from his dream. It was completely different from the other ones he had been having! He was still with Gabriel, but with some reason he had brought him to a house, somewhere by a lake of some sort. A large bed a waited for them as he was carried bridal style into a large room. It was beautiful. It was romantic.
The older doctor was so gentle and sweet with him. He touched him so tenderly that it made him want to cry. He remembered so vividly that Gabriel was so patient with him, not wanting to kill the passionate moment between them. The kid couldn't help but to moan loudly and tremble in fervor. The way Gabriel had waited just the right moment to push into him, so soothingly, which had made his whole body shudder in excitement and desire.
"Did you have a nice dream?"
Startled, he turned his head to the right, since he was sleeping on his back. Gabriel sat on a chair with a cigarette in his mouth, lazily blowing out a puff of smoke. He wore a typical smug look on his face, his amber eyes were fastened on the boy in front of him.
"..."
"I think you enjoyed yourself." He said taking another drag from his cigarette. "I almost didn't catch it, because you moaned it out so softly. What was I doing to you in your dream?"
"..."
"So you're giving me the silent treatment? Oh that's so mean." The man said sarcastically. "Does it hurt?"
The kid's expression did not change, "Does what hurt?"
"The boner that's the size of a scaled model of Mt. Everest you're having right now. It's so big that I could probably see it a mile away." Gabriel snickered, watching the kid get up and use his pillow to cover his clothed erect member. "Should I leave so you can take care of it?"
"...No..."
"Oh...?" The older male raised an interested eyebrow. "Have you ever masturbated before?"
"..."
"Do you want me to help you get rid of it?"
"No...! It'll just go away and-"
"Not when I'm here it won't." Gabriel snorted, "Or are you planning on taking a quick cold shower?"
"..."
"Hmm..."
"...What...?"
"Oh nothing," the older male sighed, "It's just that a certain birdie told me that there's something up with you, would you like sharing with me?" The kid looked down, clenching the pillow that hid his hardening erection.
"I…um…" He shook his head. "It's nothing I should be feeling…since all of it was a dream." Gabriel watched as the kid's face began to burn up in the color red. Guilt started to clinch at his stomach. How long was he going to keep lying to the kid? His lips began to open, but nothing came out, only air and more guilt. He tried again, with more luck he was pronouncing 'I'. The door slammed open behind Gabriel with so much force, causing the doctor to fall off his chair.
"Hey Kid…! Oh wait a minute, why are you here?" Maria said with a hint of laughter in her voice, "Did I scare you off your chair, Gabe?" She took Gabriel's chair and pushed it away; sitting on it after Gabriel was out of the way. "I have a surprise surgery for you, kid." She waved the chart that was in her hands at CR-S01. "It seems that a patient has Crohn's disease and wants surgery on his intestine to cure it."
"You can't cure Crohn's disease with surgery," Gabriel grunted, getting up from the tiled floor. "It can help the patient, but it can't cure the disease altogether."
"The patient wants to live a little bit longer, who cares if surgery doesn't cure him all the way?" Maria was about to hand CR-S01 the chart, but paused, seeing that the kid was covering himself with a pillow. "What's with you?"
"Maria it's morning, all men experience 'that' in the morning." Gabriel grumbled at the female.
"'That'…?" She sat there for a few more seconds before she realized what Gabriel was talking about. "Ewe, gross! You men are so nasty sometimes!" She exclaimed, throwing the chart at Gabriel.
"Hey now, we can't control that." Gabriel caught the chart with ease. "How about you try telling your blood not to go into certain places in your body when it's not needed?"
"Stop it you ass! I don't need a lesson on the males' reproductive system!" She snapped.
"Aparently you do, Maria. Have you ever had a boyfriend before?"
"Idiot! What kind of question is that?"
"You're the idiot if you can't answer a simple question."
The kid sighed, leaning forward on the pillow. I don't think I can stand this pain anymore, the kid grunted in his head. Will those two just leave already!

"Rock solid," Hank said after the kid was done sewing up the patient. "That was a fine operation as always, doctor." The kid nodded, acknowledging the praise he just received. "Do you want me to escort you back to your room?"
"Yeah."
Hank nodded, taking the lead out of the operating room. "Do you mind me asking you something?" he said turning his head to the side to look at the kid.
"What do you want to ask?"
"Is everything working out between you and Gabriel?"
"…Yes."
Hank paused, "Are you sure, because you can tell me-"
"Everything is fine." His expressionless crimson eyes shot shivers down Hank's spine.
Hank shivered a little before nodding and walking on. "It's almost time for you to leave Resurgam." Hank sighed, sadly. "You'll be leaving in two weeks." CR-S01 nodded. He did feel gloomy that he would have to leave the hospital, but he thought that this was no place to keep a killer.
"Yeah, I'll miss it here." The kid admitted, causing the ex solider to smile a bit.
"We will all miss you, doctor. You've done so much for is here. We could never repay you." Hank said.
"…"
"Hey, guys. How'd the surgery go?" Gabriel stepped out of nowhere, slightly startling Hank, and made the kid flinch back an inch. "I can take him from here."
"Surgery was perfect as usual." Hank explained, "I'm sure you're busy Dr. Cunningham. I can take him back to his room."
"No, it's okay." The kid said, "I wanted to talk to Dr. Cunningham anyway." Hank nodded his head of approval and said his good byes before he left the other two doctors.
"You really wanted to talk to me?" Gabriel sounded surprised.
"No," he said in his monotone voice, "but I know you want to talk to me." He stared up at the other doctor with his empty, hallow, crimson eyes. Gabriel couldn't help but feel a slight shiver go up and down his spine. He began to walk and the kid followed without hesitation.
"I just want to tell you a lie I've been telling you all this time." Gabriel opened the door for the kid, letting him go inside first. "I feel that the lie is hurting you more than the truth would have."
"…A lie?" He paused after Gabriel had closed the door behind himself.
"Um…yeah… The day of the lock down, when you had the dream about you and I having sex…" He watched as the color red started to creep up onto the kid's cheeks. "Well, it wasn't really a dream. It actually happened."
"B-But the bruise…!"
"Yeah, I put cover up over it, so I would make you think that you dreamt it." Gabriel took a step back, waiting for some sort of negative reaction to burst out of the other doctor.
"I-I, I'm normal…" The kid's hands were shacking for some reason. Was it from excitement? "There's nothing wrong with me after all…"
"Geez, first it was Tomoe and now it's you. What's with these positive reactions?" Gabriel tone made him sound kind of disappointed. "This doesn't make any sense." He brought his hand up to his face, shaking his head with his eyes closed. Gabriel let's out a small gasp when he felt something pull at the front of his suit. Looking down, Gabriel noticed, that the kid had his forehead pressed against the older male's chest, the boy's hands grasped at Gabriel's suit.
"Gabriel…" The kid sniffled out. "…Why?"
"Kid…I…" Gabriel brought his hand over the kid's head, letting it sit lightly on top of raven black hair. "…I just didn't want you to be attached to me." He felt the other flinch, when he started to stroke the kid's head, letting his fingers run threw the smooth hair with the effort to show some kind of affection.
"Then why did you have sex with me?" CR-S01 exclaimed, pulling away from Gabriel's body. With his free hand, Gabriel took the cigarette that was currently in his mouth and pulled it away from his lips, using his hand that was already tangled in the kid's hair to tilt the kid's head back. In one fluid motion their lips crashed together into a heated kiss, the kid's eyes were wide open in shock, while Gabriel's were lightly closed. The kid kept his mouth wide open, letting the other's tongue slip in and out, gliding and touching everything it could reach or make contact with.
The kid groaned. Warm shivers made its way down his tongue when he met Gabriel's. The older male was the one who pulled away. A rope of saliva was attached to the kid's lower lip and was connect to his own feverish mouth. "You don't have to be in love with a person to want to have sex with them." He said, breaking the thin thread of saliva.
"You just wanted to have a quick fix with me?" The kid demanded. He rubbed away loose saliva that had fallen out of the corner of his mouth. "I didn't think that you were that type of person-"
"I didn't do it with you because I wanted a quick fix! The red and blue liquid made us what to have sex, remember?" The kid gave him one of Maria's "are you an idiot?' type of looks.
"Liquid can't make us to anything." His voice had a hint of, "you're being a dumb ass," in it.
"Urgh … How do I explain this?" Gabriel finally lets go of the kid's hair and inhaled deeply, once he had put his cigarette back to his mouth. "At first when I told you that we're having sex, and yelled out that we're both not homosexuals. After I kissed you, you seemed fine with the thought about having sex with me. Logic," Gabriel cleared his throat, "was the only thing that made you think you didn't want to have sex."
"…"
"The liquid tricked your mind into thinking that you wanted to have sex, so your brain told the rest of your body, that sex is what you wanted. You understand now?"
"…Oh…"
"Do you feel any better?"
"…Yeah."
"Good, I have to go back to my office and diagnose my current patient." He patted the kid on the head before he turned around for the door handle.
"No…!" CR-S01 wrapped his arms around the other's waist. "I don't want you to go…yet…"
Gabriel raised an interested eyebrow. "Hey, weren't you supposed to tell me something?"
The kid jolted back a little, but kept his arms wrapped securely around the older doctor's waist. "What are you talking about?"
"Our conversation from this morning, it was interrupted by Maria. Remember, a little birdie told me something was up with you, and I wanted to know what it was." The kid unwrapped his arms and tried to move backwards, but Gabriel caught both in time and pulled the kid forward, causing the kid to run into his back.
"…Dr. Cunningham…!"
"Oh so you're calling me doctor again? Why did you stop calling me Gabriel?"
"One question at a time, please?"
"Fair." Gabriel chuckled.
"I thought that my feelings for you were stupid, unnecessary, and useless…because I thought it was a dream, but now I know that it wasn't a dream and there's a reason behind my feelings, it's just…Dr. Cunning- err um…Gabriel, I'm in love…with you…" There was a long pause afterwards. This of course made the kid a little worried, but then he heard the other clear his throat.
"Yeah… I love you too, kid." The older male sighed heavily and decides to let go of CR-S01's arms. "See you later kid. Like I said before, I have to go diagnose my patient."
"Gabe-" The kid grabbed Gabriel's wrist, preventing him to leave. (Gabriel remembers that the kid is a lot stronger than he looks.) "…Gabriel, I want to have sex with you."
"Whoa-wait…what?" Gabriel turned around. He looked right into the kid's eyes. His scarlet orbs showed that he was serious, instead of showing his empty "you can't know what I'm thinking or feeling," eyes. "I'm a little alarmed, but at the same time I really would like to take the offer, but," he placed his free hand on the kid's shoulder, "I'm not going any where right now, so maybe some other time when someone can't come barging in on us. Plus, we're not prepared to do something like that right now." He said apologetically.
"Oh…" The kid kept his head down, "Can you promise me one thing?"
Gabriel looked down at him confused, "Um sure."
"The next time we have sex can we do it on a bed?"

Don't worry, I'll be writing a third chapter. I just don't want to make this chapter longer than it should.
CR-carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm into the hand, becomes pressed or squeezed at the wrist. The median nerve controls sensations to the palm side of the thumb and fingers (although not the little finger), as well as impulses to some small muscles in the hand that allow the fingers and thumb to move. The carpal tunnel - a narrow, rigid passageway of ligament and bones at the base of the hand - houses the median nerve and tendons. Sometimes, thickening from irritated tendons or other swelling narrows the tunnel and causes the median nerve to be compressed. The result may be pain, weakness, or numbness in the hand and wrist, radiating up the arm. Although painful sensations may indicate other conditions, carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common and widely known of the entrapment neuropathies in which the body's peripheral nerves are compressed or traumatized.
Raynaud's Syndrome is a vasospastic disorder causing discoloration of the fingers, toes, and occasionally other areas.
xD Gosh I make myself laugh. I can't believe I kept laughing when I was writing the part when Maria freaks out that CR-S01 has a boner. To tell you the truth I really hate it when other girls err woman freak out when guys get boners because they think that men can control it (or when other woman just freak out about it), but they can't! I remember one of my guy friends said to me at lunch one day at school saying:
"You know, Euphie. I like you, because you understand that it's not our fault when we get boners out of the blue." And then he started telling me a story about a time in health class a few years ago about a girl in his class why guys got boners. I believe it was male health teacher (with some reason I thought the story was funnier that the teacher was male). Anyway so this is what the teacher said:
"You know (the girls name), men can get a boner when their pants are too tight, or if their jeans rube against them weirdly, and even if the wind is blowing the wrong way, or they just get one because they just saw something they liked." Ha-ha, I almost chocked on my food when I heard the last part. The way my friend said it just made it soooo funny…*Sighs* Good times.
Anyway make sure to review! I love reviews; they just make my day shine even brighter. :3
