Happy/Sad Pathetic Day we Call Birthday
Final Chapter
Chapter Five: Happy B-Day
Last time...
The first division captain broke the hug before leaning in a whispering five words into Kagura's ear.
"I love you, China...doll"
There was a sharp pain in the back of her neck before everything went black once again.
And now the final chapter...
Edo Hospital 6:45 PM (one hour until sunset)
Kagura opened her eyes only to be blinded by a white light shining in her face. She blinked a couple of times before adjusting to the light and realizing the room she was in was in fact a hospital room. 'When did I get here?' she asked herself.
She vaguely remembered seeing Gin-chan eat her sukonbu. She would have to get him back for that, but anyway she also remember hugging the sadist. He whispered something before he knocked her out but what... She didn't have time to think about it because Shinpachi entered the room before rushing back out.
"G-Gin-san! Kagura-chan is awake." He yelled. Kagura wanted to punch the boy. Her head still hurt and his yelling wasn't helping. She slowly sat up from her lying position, wincing in pain as she moved her left arm a bit too much. She didn't remember that injury. Just then Gintoki came into the room with a parfait in his hand.
"Oh you're awake. Hold on a sec." The man said. He quickly ate the rest of the parfait and then proceeded to put eye drops into his eyes. He cleared his throat.
"My dear Kagura-chan. I thought you were going to die. John said you wouldn't make it and I tried not to believe him honest, but it was just so hard!" (me: that's what she said. srry couldn't resist.) Gintoki cried. He made his way to Kagura's bed and fell on top of it crying, though the tears were fake. It was like he was in his own little drama. Kagura just felt like punching him for some reason, so she did. Shinpachi sweat-dropped.
"Anyway. Kagura-chan how are you feeling?" Shinpachi asked as he took the seat next to her bed.
"My head hurts and I can't remember a thing. How do you think I feel uh-huh?" she replied.
"Well it's good you're awake. I was starting to get worried." Shinpachi said, the sweat drop still on his head.
Gintoki yawned loudly. "Man I'm bored." he said. "Something interesting needs to happen now."
Then the door burst open. Okita walked through. When he noticed Kagura was awake he quickly hid something behind his back.
"Oh. C-China you're actually awake." He quickly sidestepped over to the bedside making sure Kagura couldn't see his back.
"What are you hiding Sadist?" Kagura asked.
"N-Nothing." He answered. He then leaned in to Gintoki and whispered. "I'll hook you up with free all you can eat parfaits if you leave. Oh and take loser-boy with you."
Gintoki seemed to contemplate this for awhile before shrugging and grabbing the pubescent male by his collar.
"Eh? Gin-san? Where are you taking me? I want to talk to Kagura-chan!" He yelled as he was dragged out of the room. He grabbed the sides of the doorway trying to fight back from his boss' constant pulling.
"Shinpachi you need to understand that you never get in the way of a young man in love. Ah~ sweet youth." Gintoki told the glasses boy, still trying to yank him free.
"Who is in love? I don't see anyone in love!"
"Poor Shinpachi-kun. So young and naive." The silver haired samurai yanked one more time and successfully managed to pry the boy off the door frame. Okita and Kagura merely stared at where the two had once been for a moment. Afterwords neither of the two moved nor spoke. Kagura was fighting an inner battle that her reason was losing and her emotions were winning.
INSIDE KAGRUA'S MIND
Two old men sat at a table concentrating deeply on the game of chess they were playing. One was reason and the other was emotion.
"So the bastard confessed huh? Reject it." Reason stated as he moved a black pawn forward.
"He's in love with her and she obviously returns his feelings. Accept it." Emotion replied also moving a pawn only his was white.
"No way! If she does that then he will get hurt." Reason shot back. He moved another chess piece.
"But to deny her happiness is worse!" Emotion retorted also moving a chess piece.
"Reject it!"
"Accept it!"
"Reject it!"
"Accept it!"
As they argued, they moved chess pieces across the board. Frankly this wasn't helping Kagura at all. So back to reality.
REALITY
There was still an awkward silence in the hospital room. It went on for a few more seconds before Okita cleared his throat.
"These are for you. Get well soon or something." Okita said as he brought out a bouquet of flowers. Kagura stared wide eyed at them. She gently took them from his hands and sniffed them. The flowers smelled just a beautiful as they looked.
"T-Thank you Sadist." She said softly. A light blush appeared on her face. Okita walked around and sat on the edge of bed. Kagura's blush deepened as she remembered the words he spoke to her.
"I love you China...doll."
Okita watched as the young girl blushed a pretty tint of pink.
'Even her blush is cute.' his conscience said, but he chose to ignore it.
"China?"
"W-What is i-it?" 'Holy crap!' Okita thought. 'Damn this girl is too cute for her own good. Better make her mine quick before someone else does.'
"Go out with me." It was more of a command than an actually question.
"W-What?" Kagura was really shocked. Someone wanted to go out with her. That person was also her rival and, though she would hate to admit it, her crush.
"Go. Out. With. Me." He said again only this time a bit slower. Kagura wanted to say yes and she was about to, but then reason bought up the dangers in her life. Her overprotective sad excuse for a father, her older brother who by the way would probably kill the sadist for dating his younger sister (though he broke all ties with her), not to mention her own Yato blood was a constant threat. The last thing she wanted was for Okita to be harmed by any of these things.
Reason was winning at chess again. The only way for Emotion to win would be if Okita did something so shocking, so surprising that Reason would be distracted long enough for Emotion to cheat. Yea that wasn't going to happen.
"I-I can't!" Kagura told him. Tears were beginning to well up in her azure eyes and Okita could tell she was hurting. He could also predict the reason why she "couldn't" become his girlfriend, but he asked anyway, faking shock.
"W-Why?" He faked pain, shock and depression.
"Because I don't want you to get hurt, you sadist! My papi would come and kill you and so would my brother! Not to mention what happened yesterday could happen again any day! I couldn't possibly live with myself if I was the cause of any one of my friends getting hurt, but especially you because I"
'Here it comes' Okita thought. His was smirking inwardly.
"because I...BECAUSE I LOVE YOU!!!" Kagura told him. By this point Kagura was crying uncontrollably. Okita smirked where the girl couldn't see.
"Geez China. It's good to know you care about little old me, but I can take care of myself." Okita told her. He leaned in towards her a bit and cupped her left cheek with his right hand. He used his thumb to wipe away some of the tears.
"But aren't you worried about my father and broth-" Kagura started but was interrupted by Okita.
I don't need to worry about your crazy family or even crazier blood because frankly I don't care. If they want to kill me, let them. As long as I'm with you, it doesn't matter." He leaned in extremely close and closed the distance between their lips.
INSIDE KAGURA'S MIND
Emotion didn't need to cheat as he stared at the chess board in concentration. With a shaky hand he moved his rook forward before smirking at his friend who stared in awe.
"Check...Mate" He said smugly, before Reason toppled the table over while declaring a rematch.
REALITY
Kagura's eyes went wide at first, but then she slowly closed her eyes and melted into the kiss. Said kiss started out soft, but soon became fierce as Okita nipped the young girl's lips asking for entrance which was granted quickly. In that instance the world around them blurred as their tongues battled for dominance and the kiss deepened further.
At that moment, Shinpachi, who had managed to escape Gintoki's clutches, barged through the door but stopped in his tracks as he witnessed the kiss deepen.
"AHHH! KAGURA-CHAN'S INNOCENCE!!!"
The two lovebirds stopped and stared at the annoying glasses-wearing boy. The looked at each other then shrugged before returning to their -ahem- previous activities.
Kagura smiled inwardly. Despite all that's happened over the past few days, this was definitely her best birthday yet.
