Sir… We don't treat homosexuals in this hospital. Sir… We don't treat homosexuals in this hospital. We don't treat homosexuals in this hospital. We don't treat homosexuals. Homosexuals…

The words rang in Hidan's head as he watched in horror as all the nurses and doctors on staff began filing out of the room leaving Kakuzu bleeding heavily on the stretcher. The bastards even had the audacity to unhook Kakuzu from the IV. The brunette doctor with the eye patch began walking away and Hidan grabbed him roughly by the shoulder.

"What the fuck are you talking about? Why the hell not?" Hidan demanded, throwing anxious glances back at Kakuzu every so often.

"Mr. Gisei, I'm afraid that due to the diseases your type may carry-" The doctor began to say.

"Diseases?" Hidan shouted in pure rage. "Are you fucking implying that I gave him some kind of disease? We haven't even fucked yet so keep your excuses to yourself and treat my boyfriend." Hidan demanded. When the topic of sex was brought up the doctor nearly choked and his nurse turned bright red.

"Sir, of course I'm not implying that you gave him the disease, it's just that-" The doctor tried, only to be cut off by Hidan again.

"Oh! So now you're implying that my boyfriend cheated on me?" Hidan retorted, pulling back a fist to hit the man. The doctor's eyes widened and Hidan slowly lowered his arm, tears forming in his eyes. "Just treat him… Please… He'll die soon, and then I'll die as well." He begged, finally at the point of desperation.

The doctor and nurse were silent, but Hidan knew their minds weren't being changed. It seemed like everything was wasted. It felt to him like all the years he spent fighting for his relationship with Kakuzu was so that they could be killed by the very type of people they despised. Growing up was just a blur to him as Hidan realized that now, in this moment, with this beaten down Kakuzu, his life was worthless. He wished, for what felt like the hundredth time, that they were kids again. Now Hidan was losing Kakuzu. And with him, he was losing himself.

As he watched Kakuzu lying there, so helpless and broken, he felt himself breaking. The feeling of a broken heart was so vivid in his mind that he almost didn't hear a new person entering the room.

"Is there a problem here, Danzo? Why is this young man not being attended to?" A female voice demanded to know. The brunette doctor stiffened and his eyes narrowed.

"Tsunade get back to your wing of the hospital. This doesn't concern you." Danzo said, turning and shooing away his nurse, who happily left the tense atmosphere.

"I don't think so." Tsunade said in a sing-song voice, walking over to Kakuzu. Hidan turned away from glaring at the doctor and saw a tall woman with blonde hair in low pigtails walking over to Kakuzu's stretcher. "So?" Tsunade asked, turning to face Danzo.

"So what?" He responded bitterly. Tsunade rolled her hazel eyes and pointed to Kakuzu.

"Why, pray tell, is this boy lying here, dying, and not being treated?" Tsunade snapped. Danzo's face hardened and he crossed his arms.

"You know the rules Tsunade, no homosexuals, and this boy is-" Danzo started, trying to sound final before he was cut off by an angry stomp of Tsunade's foot.

"The RULES?" Tsunade yelled in a thundering voice. "That's your own stupid phobia! If you're scared of a few teenage boys I pity you Danzo." Tsunade ended in a steely voice. Danzo cringed at the frightening expression on Tsunade's face.

"Tsunade, it's not fair to-" Danzo attempted weakly, before, to Hidan's surprise, Tsunade punched Danzo across the room. Hidan's jaw dropped as he watched the woman stalk over to Danzo with a vengeance.

"You listen to me," Tsunade began, lifting Danzo by the front of his shirt. "I will not allow you to let a life slip away anywhere in this hospital. That's just sick. So wrong that I can't explain it." Once Tsunade dropped Danzo back onto the ground she turned to Hidan with a cheeky grin.

"Well now, let's go take care of your friend." The female doctor said confidently. Hidan put a hand on Kakuzu's arm before throwing a lingering glare at Danzo.

"My boyfriend." Hidan corrected.
