Heal
"Do you want to eat?"
"No."
"Do you want to drink?"
"No."
"Hug?"
"...No."
"Kiss?"
"No!"
"Do you—"
"God, NO!"
Hayato rose abruptly from the bed as he sent a weak glare at the brown-haired girl, breathing heavily. One hand was clutching over his grumbling stomach while the other was on the bed, supporting his now weak body and preventing him from falling.
Runa, has gotten used to this guy's short temper, didn't flinch and merely blinked at the expected outburst from her childhood friend. Heaving a small tired sigh, she questioned the silver-haired calmly,
"What do you want then?"
"I want you to SHUT THE HELL UP, DAMMIT!"
He yelled with his tone raised in every word he blurted out.
However, as soon as he finished his word, a loud grumble sound came from his stomach and he collapsed to the bed he was on once again, holding onto his stomach while he groaned in pain.
She smirked. "You shut it, or your stomach will get worse," she said mockingly to the silver-haired, who was glaring in turn.
She shrugged indifferently. "It's not my fault you actually ate Big Sis' cooking, Hayato," she told him innocently, before she glanced at the two pills laid on the small table by the bed, "And you don't even take the medicine I made for you."
"I don't need that suspicious medicine…" He denied with a small growl as he rolled his body over so his back was facing the green-eyed girl.
"You've taken this suspicious medicine before and it worked, didn't it?"
"…"
Runa sighed, propping herself down on the edge of the bed. "You're so stubborn," she said, "There's no way you're going to heal anytime soon with that hard head of yours."
Hayato didn't deny this time. A moment of silence passed before Hayato mumbled lowly—almost inaudibly, "…It'll heal as long as you're here."
"Hm?" She looked over her shoulder to the silver-haired guy. "What was that? I didn't quite hear you," she asked truthfully, curious.
Embarrassed when he realized what he had just said, Hayato quickly grabbed the edge of the blanket from his waist and pulled it over his head. "SHUT UP! I'M GOING TO SLEEP SO JUST SIT THERE AND DON'T BOTHER ME!"
She sighed again. "You short-tempered brat…." She mocked, looking at the big cocoon of blanket in front of her.
"Shut up!"
"Yes, yes," she said, and put a hand on the top of the blanket, where she guessed Hayato's head was. "Now sleep. I won't leave until you fall asleep."
Under the blanket, Hayato was lying on his side. Eyes were slit closed and a tranquil expression on his face, a soft smile graced itself on his lips as if he could feel the warmth of the girl's hand through the blanket.
"…Thanks, Unn…"
For Hayato, even her presence was enough to heal him.
Author's note:
This is for Keirei's request, Gokudera x OC fic. I'm sorry if it's not very good.
Another OC of mine (I make a lot of OC, I know ^^ ), Runa Lau. A childhood friend of Hayato, also a part of mafia and is known as the 'White Poison'. Her ability is to create medicine and poison neutralizer (specialty in making medicine for Poisonous Cooking). Oh! And just so you know, Gokudera calls her 'Unn' instead of her real name, Runa.
I know Gokudera is kind of OOC. When he said 'as long as you're here' and 'thanks' especially. I don't think Gokudera is the type to blurt out his mind. Well, he does insult a lot, but if it's a good thought, I'm not sure if he'll say that out (except to Tsuna, of course).
Well, please keep requesting. You can request for the same character more than once. :)
