Nana: I think the prompt is referring to autumn, but I wanted to use the other meaning for the word fall, instead. Sorry for taking so long with this, by the way…I'm running out of ideas again.
Aki In The Bath
Title: Voice Like Churchbells
Prompt: 064. Fall
Rating: PG-13
He should know better than to try the stairs himself, he should know he's weak and struck with vertigo. But he ignores his infirmity, attempts it because Hatori's busy and Akito needs water, he can't think past his thirst. He trips and falls down shrieking, limbs banging the banister, head thumping every step. His vision blurs when he hits the bottom, something's broken and the pain's horrendous, he can almost make out Hari flying down to him. "Akito!" he cries, his voice like church bells, face glowing white. "Akito are you alright?"
He's not, but Hatori's coming. He will be.
