Oi, chapter 3 up.

I obviously don't own a thing, exept the glass of water I am sipping...Oh, and this laptop. YAY. ^/^

"Yes, please come in." Homare said. The door opened and in stepped a woman who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen. She was short, about 5' 2", with long blonde hair that was tied back on a braid that ran down to her knees. Her eyes were blue and grey with a touch of green. The first time Kanou had seen her, she thought that she was Ayases' sister or something. But they were in no way related. Men had fallen all over her when Kanou had first met her on a business trip, because, although she was small and had a delicate structure, she was chesty.

"Ah, Kanou-Kun, you are in here. So that is why I had the urge to come in here. Why are you here, brat?" She asked. Although she was young, she was a prodigy. She was director of the hospital and the best surgeon Kanou had ever seen, and he had been to hospitals all over Japan.

She also had a habit of talking down to him. He didn't know why, and when he had asked her why, she just looked at him with a sly grin on her face and told him that she was older than he knew. When she smiled at the confused look on his face, her sharp canines showed. They were really sharp. The first thing he that went through his head after that was vampire. Then he glared at himself because vampires didn't exist, and if they did, they wouldn't work in a hospital, because of all the blood. It would drive them crazy, right?

"Yuna-San, did you happen to check into Ayases' room and see how he is coming along?" He asked.

"Ayase-Chibi? He is here? What happened?" She asked her eyes narrowing. Though she looked like a little angel herself, she could kick someone's ass in a heart beat. Kanou had experienced that first hand. She was a she-devil when it came to fighting. She was actually what Kanou could call a friend. Not an Ally, an actual friend.

After retelling her what Kanou and Homare witnessed, Yuna told the nurse that she could leave. The nurse turned and left, but not without glaring at Yuna and Kanou. Yuna turned back to Kanou with scary look on her face. Her mood matched that of Kanous'.

"I will see what I can do. Homare, I was here to tell you that you are free to go now." With that, she turned stalked out of the room.

"Uh, Dr. Cruizza?" Homare called after her. She reappeared after a moment and cocked an eyebrow.

"What?" She said.

"How is the woman?" He asked quietly.

"Oh yes, she is doing quite well in recovery. Though…" She stopped in mid-sentence.

"What?" He said, looking concerned. She sighed.

"We found a chunk of Ayases' skin and some of his blood in her. Plus she was on cough medicine, and with what you told me, I believe that it was used to keep her from properly using senses. Also, she was hyped up with an aphrodisiac, meaning she was probably about to get raped. But the thing is, that….she…already was. Someone had raped her once and she might have gotten away before she was raped again, but those men found her, I think. I don't know yet. You will just have to ask her yourself when she wakes up. The hole in her stomach has been cleaned and stitched up. So if you will excuse me, I have to go and check on Ayase-Chibi. Kanou, come with me." She demanded. She didn't wait for an answer from Kanou, she just left, expecting him to follow. He did.

"I will catch up with you two later." He said and walked out the door.

Yuna walked briskly down the hall, headed to the front desk.

"Yuna? Are you done with you're the surgery on that woman?" A voice asked. Kanou turned to see a tall pale man. The strange thing about him was his eyes. They were like sea foam green, they were really light. His hair was black and flowed down to the middle of his back. It was tied back with a sliver clasp at the base of his neck.

"S-Soren!" She stuttered and blushed deeply. Kanou lifted an eyebrow. "What are you doing here?"

"I work here, remember? Anyways, you didn't answer my question. Also, I just got out of doing surgery." Soren said, as he walked toward Yuna. Her blush only deepened as he backed her up against the wall, his hand next to her head. He leaned down and kissed her.

Kanou walked up to him and lightly tapped him on his shoulder. Soren stood and looked down at Kanou.

"Yes?" He asked darkly. He saw Kanous' jaw clench.

"Kanou-Kun it's fine." She said, her face still red.

"Who is he?" Kanou jerked a thumb in Sorens' direction, and Soren raised an eyebrow, as if Kanou raised no threat.

"Um, he is my husband, Kanou-Kun." Said Yuna. Kanous' mouth fell open.

"But you are only seventeen." He exclaimed.

"No, I told you that I am older than you think." She smiled. Then her voice turned tense and her smile faded. "Anyways, you just got out of surgery, right? Who were you operating on?"

"A pretty blondie named Ayase Yukiya. He looked a lot like you, Yuna. Why?" Soren replied, noting the tightness in Yunas' voice.

"How….How is Ayase?" Kanou asked.

"Yes, how is Ayase-Chibi?" Yuna repeated.

"Well, he has a huge amount of stitches, and we have him hooked up to some water and blood, but he is out cold. We will have to wait until morning to see how he is going to go about healing." Said Soren. Kanou turned away from the two and ran into the waiting room.

"Which room is Ayase Yukiya in?" He asked the lady at the desk.

"Room 206, but visiting hours are over and he will not be able to have any visitors for a couple of days." She said. Kanou looked down the hall he just ran from. Soren and Yuna were coming through the doorway.

"You know you could have just asked me, and I would have gotten you into the room. Soren is also willing to let you in." Yuna stated nonchalantly, then looked up.

"Kanou Nii-San." Gion shouted, running through the double doors that led outside.

"Somuku!" Someya was right behind him, though he was running slower.

"Please use quiet voices, this is a hospital." The nurse at the desk said in a hushed tone.

"How is Ayase?" Gion asked concern showing on his face.

"What happened Somuku? What happened to Ayase-Chan?" Someya cried, though Kanou though he was faking it. It all came with the works of being a filthy okama.

"I am going to check on him right now. If you want to know what's happened so far, just go talk to Homare and Misao." he said while walking off with Yuna and Soren.

After walking down the opposite hall that Gion and Someya were headed off to, they rounded a corner. The doors ran on both sides of the hall, some doors opened, others closed. They walked a bit further before stopping in front of the room labeled 206, and Yuna turned toward him.

"Now, since I am the director of the hospital, I am aloud to give special privileges, but you can't disturb him. If you do you are out. Got it, you brat?" Yuna said firmly, while taking the front of his shirt and pulling him down to her level.

"Yeah, I got it." Kanous' mind was to far away to care what was happening. He was just a door away from Ayase. He could hardly help himself from barging into the room and hugging Ayase. He took a deep breath and steadied himself. More of keeping his emotions in check.

He opened the door and found himself walking into a dark room. There was a small light over the bed that his angel was lying in, his pale skin looking translucent from the lack of blood. There was a faint beeping sound that measured the heartbeat of a patient. Ayase was lying on his stomach, his back exposed, showing the stitches that ran from his left shoulder to just above his left hip. Underneath the stitches was a long red cut. It was raised, inflamed from the stitches and bleeding in some places.

Kanou silently walked over to Ayases' bedside and pulled up a folded chair. Opening it, he sat down and took Ayases' limp hand. It was cold. His blonde hair was splayed around his head, casting shadows on his closed eyes. His back was rising and falling with each shallow breath he took.

Kanou leaned down and kissed Ayases' hand. He held it gently, afraid that if he held it any harder it would break. The emotions were raging inside of him, causing his breath to become short. He clenched his teeth, determined to not make a sound. He heard a footfall behind him and felt a hand on his shoulder.

"You are tense. You shouldn't have to worry, I believe that he will pull through no problem. Ayase-Chibi is strong." Yuna said in a whisper.

"But he is…Still fragile." Kanou said, his voice cracking from choking back his emotions. Yunas' eyes widened at the amount of worry Kanou had for the boy lying in the bed. Then she smiled, yaking on a soft look for him.

"It will be ok, Kanou-Chibi, everything will be." She said wrapping her hands around his shoulders and ruffling his hair. She let go almost at once.

"See, I made you stop worrying so much. I told you everything is going to be ok."

"Why did you…?" He was out of thoughts as to why she would be so compelled as to do that and was slightly freaked out and annoyed. She smiled again and turned toward the door, where Soren was waiting for her. Just as she was about to close the door she turned her head to whisper to him.

"I did it for two reasons. One; because you are like my brother when he worries over things like this, his face tells me everything, and two;….I know what it is like to lose and to almost lose someone who is precious to me. Believe me, I know the pain. I almost lost the man I love. again." She said as she looked up at Soren before shutting the door.

"Ayase…" He whispered, the emotions spilling over.

A single tear made its way down the side of Kanous face.

He gasped.

He quickly realized it and wiped it away simply allowing himself to forget it ever happened.

Ayase floated, in and out of pain and sorrow. He had to tell someone something, but he couldn't remember what. It hurt. He didn't know what, but it did. It was like liquid fire pouring on his back and working its' way through his veins.

Then he realized he was scared. He wanted Someone…Who though?

"….Se…" Something faint was heard. It was a nice sound, it didn't hurt.

"…Ase…." There it was again. Ayase didn't know what it was but he wanted to hear more of it, so he strained his senses, even though it hurt a little.

"….Ayase…." He heard that voice, finally the silky smooth voice of Kanou. He was the person he wanted to tell something to, but it was making him sad, because he would make Kanou angry and maybe he would also get angry at the Kuba brothers.

Suddenly a sjharp pain weaved its' way into the base of his skull and he cried out.

Kanou heard Ayase whimper before he started crying in his sleep, and before he knew what he was doing, he was petting Ayases' head, causing the blonde to open his eyes.

Ayase saw Kanou and the emotions built up inside of him came out. His face crumpled.

He sat up and started to cry.

"K-K…Kanou-San, I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to-" He was cut off when Kanou hugged him gently, carefully, as to not touch his back.

"Ayase." He said softly, as he tilted Ayases' face back to look at him.

Oh, what is going to happen now? The next xhapter should be up in about two weeks at the most. I am busy moving right now, so I don't really have much time to type and such...Sorry. Knives and pitchforks are not needed in this scene...

*Ayase* You aren't going to make me-"

*Reiketsu* "Oh I probably am."

*Kanou* "What do you think you are going to do to Ayase?"

*Reiketsu* "Wouldn't you love to know?"

*Kanou* "I can beat it out of you."

*Reiketsu* "Oh, bring it ossan!"

*Kanou* "Ossan!"

*Ayase* "Y-you guys..."
