I Refuse!

Yuffie let forth an aggravated sigh as she flopped down backwards on Vincent's bed. Why did he have to be so difficult? Vincent simply stared down at her with a bored expression on his face as he sat under the comforter that Yuffie was currently lying on at that moment. He sniffled a bit then clutched a hand to his chest as he began to cough violently, specks of blood covering the hand that he covered his mouth with.

"Hah! See!" Yuffie didn't even bother to sit up as she pointed an accusing finger at him.

"I fail to see what you are proclaiming…" His voice came in low wheezing gasps due to how little oxygen was actually getting to his lungs, here is when Yuffie sat up on her knees and starred at him.

"You're coughing up blood, man! I'm taking you to the doctor!" She leaned forward so that they were practically touching noses, making him blush but it didn't show on his flushed cheeks, as she placed a hand to his forehead, "Dude, you're burning up! That's one high fever, you have to go."

"I must decline your offer for a trip to the hospital…" She grabbed him by his pajama lapels and shook him slightly.

"Don't you understand, Vinnie? Having a high fever and coughing up blood does NOT mean you're healthy, it's like the complete opposite!"

"I refuse….! My advanced healing abilities will take care of the problem shortly…"

'I hope, anyways…' Vincent simply turned his head away and Yuffie let out a cry of frustration.

"Grah! You have to be the most childish fifty-somthin'-year-old I have ever met and you're goin'!" With this, she slipped a hand under his thick black blanket and retrieved his gauntlet covered hand. She stood up on the bed and tried to pull him up, but he simply drew his hand back to him causing Yuffie to be forced to let go of it and tumble backwards off the bed, landing on her bottom and wounded pride. Vincent shivered as he slipped out of bed, pulled on his robe and headed for his door.

"Please, Yuffie, leave me alone so that I can get over this in my own way…"

"Never!" Yuffie yelled as she tackled him to the floor, "You're goin' to the doc!"

~V*Y~

Vincent sat on the chair in the hospital waiting room, fully dressed in normal attire and wallowing over his shattered pride with Yuffie sitting on top of his lap so he wouldn't make a break for the door. He shut his eyes, his chest hurt and he was shivering but he couldn't tell if it was from the chills or the fact that he was in a hospital. Yuffie was humming and swinging her legs back and forth as they waited, how he hated her right now yet something felt awfully right with her sitting atop of him.

"Vincent Valentine?" The pair's eyes snapped open as they heard his name being called; Yuffie leapt up and grabbed his hand, dragging him behind her. He sluggishly followed behind her, hiding his face with his long raven hair and cape collar.

"Sorry, little miss, but you can't go back with him." Yuffie gave a serious pout and stuck a finger from her free hand in the nurse's face.

"Listen, lady! Unless you want your pretty hospital to go up in demonic flames I advise you let me go with Vinnie here." The nurse starred in horror at the look of dead seriousness that was written all over the young girl's face.

"Oh, sorry, right this way, you two!"

~V*Y~

Vincent sat on top of the examination table breathing painfully fast from nerves as both human nails and metal claws ripped into the foam mattress of the table. Vincent shut his eyes as a million different nightmarish memories flashed before them; Yuffie looked with pity at him as she saw liquid glisten on his beautiful eyelashes.

"Vinnie, it's gonna be ok… It's just a doctor's visit, they're not gonna do anything bad to you…" Yuffie reached up from her chair and began to gently stroke his leg to try and calm him down but he just quickly shook his head, the tears finally falling from behind closed eyelids as Yuffie heard a weird sound come from him that she thought she would never hear ever escape him.

'Holy Shiva! Did Vinnie just whimper like a little kid? He must be scared out of his wits!' Yuffie's mind reeled at just the thought, 'Well, at least the doctor won't look like Ho-!' At that second, a young male doctor with glasses and greased back black hair walked in looking at a clipboard.

"D****t!" Yuffie swore so loud it caused the doctor to look up at her and Vincent to open his eyes. Yuffie could see his eyes widened with unrestrained horror at the sight of the young doctor with a syringe sticking out of his pocket, the gunman nearly jumped out of his skin before he tried to shrink away from the doctor.

"Vinnie, calm down…! It's ok; nothing bad's gonna happen…!" She tried to reassure him with a calming whisper. The doctor looked in sympathy at the utterly terrified man sitting before him, so he turned to talk to Yuffie.

"Miss, your friend doesn't look so good, would you mind telling me what wrong with him?"

"Sure, aside from an extremely bad case of nerves he's had a high fever, chills, chest pain, rapid heartbeats, labored breathing…" She looked up at Vincent, she was starting to wonder if he even was breathing anymore at this point, " …and he's been coughing up blood along with the normal mucus." Doctor looked at the two of them for a second as he wrote all the symptoms down, then thinking for a minute he turned back to Yuffie and sighed.

"Miss, these all sound a lot like bacterial pneumonia but the only way to truly tell is by a blood test…" The doctor told her as he slowly pulled the syringe out of his pocket. It was at this point in time that Vincent would have bolted for the door were it not for Yuffie noticing this and wrapped her arms around him to hold him to the table.

"Doc, unless you really want this place in demonic shambles hurry up and take his stinkin' blood!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~A/N: I'm sorry that the scene with the doctor was so short and I know that the doctor would never go that fast but I wanted to finish this up before I left for school and I'm almost late as it is! Bye! Hope you like it Dragon!
