Chapter 16
Rin cried and cried in pain and despair, he never wanted to hurt anyone and especially not Yukiko. The paramedics arrived a while later, taking Yukiko out of Rin's arms and onto the ambulance. Rin got into the car with her, still only worrying about her that he didn't notice that everyone there was starting at the Son of Satan, crying for a human girl. As they got there, they rushed to close the wounds on her back, and Rin entered her hospital room.
"I'm sorry Yukiko. I'm really sorry. " Rin whispered to her as he held her hand, and he shortly dissappeared without seeing her wake up.
The other exwires however arrived at the hospital as Rin left and they went to Yukiko's room, and as she slowly woke up she looked for Rin.
"Do you guys know where Rin is? "
They all just simply shook their heads solemnly.
"We haven't seen him. He got into the car with you here, so we expected him to be here."
There was silence between the exwires and Yukiko as they all had their heads hung down low, looking at the ground trying to make sense of the things that happened. Momentarily, the silence was broken by Shura bursting into the hospital room and rushing to Yukiko's side.
"Kirigakure-sensei..."
"I heard about what happened."
Yukiko was saddened, remembering that one moment and Rin's crying face flashing in her mind. He looked so sad and full of regret that it broke Yukiko's heart to see him that way. She knew that Rin was very cautious around her when he first met her, probably because he was afraid to get hurt again. When Rin shared his pain of his past, she felt that she was closer to him and thought that he was finally starting to heal the wounds in his heart. What happened today, reopened those wounds once again.
"Do you know where Rin might be?"
"Huh? No, I haven't seen him."
"I need to go see him."
"What?! You need to be resting! No way you're going out in that condition."
Yukiko struggled as she was trying to get up, but Shura was pushing her down to try and prevent her from moving.
"I need to see him! Can't you guys see that Rin's hurt too! Don't stop me when you don't know anything!"
All the exwires and Shura stared at the little girl with wide eyes. They wondered what the little girl meant by that.
"She said that again. She said that before she ran after Rin and now too. What does she mean?"
"Hey, what do you-"
The doctor burst into the room with an angry expression.
"Be quiet! This is a hospital! If you guys are going to be loud, I'm going to kick you guys out!"
Everyone straightened themselves and obediently sat down quietly.
"Now, my name's Dr. Eric."
Yukiko remembered that name, Rin had told her of him. The doctor that saved him, a demon when he tried to kill himself.
"Hey, I know you."
"Umm... actually this is the first time I'm meeting you miss."
"No I mean aren't you the doctor... you know Rin right?"
The doctor seemed to think about the name for a while and remembered.
"Ah! That demon?"
"Yeah! He told me about you."
"Well, that was an unfortunate event. Is he doing any better these days?"
"Yeah, he's better. I'm not sure right now he is..."
"Well then, I'll come back later to check up on your condition."
"Okay."
Though everyone in the room wondered what the two were talking about, they left the room a while later, and Yukiko was still worrying about Rin who was still nowhere in sight. She stared at the ceiling of the hospital, thinking of all the fun times she had with Rin and Kuro.
Flashback
"Hey Rin..."
"What is it Yukiko?"
They were walking back to the dorms hand in hand as Kuro walked beside them.
"If I wasn't here, would you miss me?"
"Wha-"
"I mean just wondering."
"Of course I mean you're the reason I'm living right now. You don't know how grateful I am. Though you're just a kid, you support me and understand my situation."
"Hehehe... I would miss you too Rin."
"?"
"I mean if you weren't here. I would miss you no matter what anyone says about you being a demon."
"Thanks."
Yukiko looked up and saw Rin truly smiling with happiness and it made her feel happy too, seeing that Rin felt happier.
"You know what if you ever need me, just call me and I'll be there."
"Really?"
"Yeah. No matter what."
"Promise?"
"Yeah, I promise. No matter what."
End Flashback
Yukiko smiled slightly at the memory. She had never really did this, because she didn't want to bother him. Rin always came back from cram classes and played with her no matter what, so she always waited form his classes to end. Yukiko found her phone and dialed his number, waiting for him to pick up. A few moments later, as she thought he wouldn't pick up, she heard the familiar voice answering.
"Hello."
"Rin! Thank god you picked up. I was worried about you! Are you okay?"
"... Yeah, I'm fine it's nothing. You should worry about yourself."
"Don't worry, I'm fine... you know, I was expecting you to be there when I woke up."
"Sorry..."
"It's fine, don't feel sorry for that."
"I'm sorry... sorry... sorry..."
Yukiko heard Rin repeating that as he was sobbing.
"I told you I'm fine... don't worry!"
"It's my fault you got hurt."
"No it's not okay! I know that you couldn't control it."
"No, if I was stronger than no one would've gotten hurt."
"Rin Okumura! It's not your fault and I mean it! Stop blaming yourself! Instead of blaming yourself, at least pay a visit to me."
"..."
Yukiko waited for a while and she only heard silence.
"Rin? Are you there?"
"... huh? Yeah."
Yukiko only didn't know that Rin was in shock and smiled happily as tears of relief fell down his cheeks.
"So, you better pay a visit to me."
"Okay, okay. I'll be there."
"Visiting hours are over though."
"Don't worry, I'll be there right now."
"Okay, see you."
As the call ended, Yukiko stared out the window looking out at the sky. Rin entered the room a few minutes later, surprising her.
"Wha-"
"Why are you so surprised? You think I was joking?"
"How'd you... I thought they wouldn't let anyone in after Visiting hours."
"Let's just say someone helped me for the second time."
Yukiko thought about this and smiled, "Dr. Eric."
"Wow, then you should be more grateful to this person."
"Don't worry, I'm grateful. You should get some sleep though if you want to leave this hospital room."
"Okay, I don't really like the hospital."
"Hahaha, me either so hurry up and get better."
Rin held onto Yukiko's hand, watching her fall asleep and fell asleep himself before he even knew it. The next day, the Exwires, Shura, and Yukio were at the hospital for a visit again. They opened the door room, and saw the unexpected scene of Rin sleeping by Yukiko's bed holding her hand.
"Hey, you guys mind clearing the entrance?"
Dr. Eric was behind them trying to get into the room, which woke up Rin in the process. Everyone snapped back into reality and stepped inside the room.
"Hey Rin. Doing any better than the last time I saw you?"
"Yeah, sorta."
"I mean I can't stop you but at least think about other people. You can't just go off and try-"
Dr. Eric was stopped by Rin who was glaring at him as he was saying, "Don't say anything."
"Try and what? What are you guys talking about?"
"Huh? It's nothing."
"What do you mean it's nothing!? How do you know Rin?"
"..."
"Don't try to care. It's none of your guys' business. It's my life."
Bon was about to retort back to the blue haired boy but was cut off by Rin yelling at Dr. Eric.
"I'm grateful to you, but don't go saying unnecessary things they don't need to know about. Just so you know, that whole incident was caused by these people anyways."
"Oh, yeah sorry. I assumed they were your friends."
"They're not my friends."
Bon grabbed onto Rin's collar, "Oi, what do you mean by that?"
"What? It's true isn't it, or did you forget that I'm the Son of Satan."
"You bastard!"
Bon was ready to punch him in the face, angry but was stopped by Yukiko.
"Stop!"
All he could do was let him go, glaring at him angrily. As the doctor examined her, they silently sat down.
"Okay, surprisingly you're in a better condition than I thought. I think you can leave the hospital today."
"Yay! Hey Rin I can go home now!"
"Okay, I'll bring you some clothes and we'll go home."
"Hurry back okay, I don't like the hospital food."
"Okay I'll be right back and I'll make anything you want today."
Rin left the room towards the abandoned boys' dormitory.
