Ryuichi was at home, after practicing at N.G. Recording studio. He turned off the shower water and stepped out of the tub. His hair stuck to his face as it was drenched with water. His body was dripping wet. He grabbed a towel and wrapped it around his waist. He grabbed a medium sized towel and dried his hair with it as he walked out of his bathroom. He walked down the hall to his room to take his medication, but just as he did, his doorbell rang. He puts the pills bottle down and walked down the stairs to his front door in the foyer. The ringing was persistent, so he quickly opened his door, blinking in shock.
"Hiro-san?" He asks, still drying his hair.
"What are you doing here and how did you know where I lived?" He asked him, soon frowning at Hiro's panic expression on his face.
"What happened to Shuichi?" He asked in a serious tone.
"He's in the hospital. The hospital called his sister, who then called me to tell me about it. I got a hold of everyone else involved with Bad Luck and Mr. Sakano told me how to contact Tohma, who gave me your number and address. I tried calling you, but you were obviously in the shower, so I followed Tohma's directions and came here." Hiro explains.
Ryuichi nodded his head and ran up to his room to get dressed, before quickly coming back out.
"Please take me to Shuichi." He begged and pleaded to Hiro.
Hiro nodded and threw him an extra helmet.
"Why do you think I drove here? Get on." He smirks at him.
Ryuichi smirked back and catches the helmet, putting it on. He follows Hiro outside and got on the back of his motorcycle. He held onto his waist tightly as he started up the bike and drove off to the hospital.
They arrived to the hospital Shuichi was sent to. Ryuichi quickly jumps off the moving bike, throwing Hiro's helmet to him, before running inside the building.
"Where is Shuichi Shindou?" He asked the nurse at the desk frantically.
"Room 1185 b."
"Thank you", Ryuichi said rushing to his search of the room.
"Sir no running in the hospital!"
Ryuichi ignored the nurse and continued his search for Shuichi's room. When he found it, he didn't hesitate to slam open the door and walk in. There was only Shuichi's sister there, holding his hands tightly as she sat next to him. She jumps and turns around, noticing Ryuichi. She widened her eyes and pointed at him.
"Ryu…."
Ryuichi shook his head, placing his index finger to his lips. She nodded her head as he walked up to Shuichi's unconscious form.
"Can you tell me what happened?"
"Someone found Shuichi lying in the street in front of Yuki's house. He was naked and covered with blood and bruises all over his body. There was also semen and blood in his ass from when he was anally raped."
"He was found in front of Yuki's place?" He asked her.
"Yes, you don't think Yuki did this and kicked him out, do you?"
Ryuichi smiled as he turned to look at her.
"Of course he wouldn't. Yuki cares for Shuichi." He lied to her, putting on a fake smile as his left hand trembled behind his back as it balled up into a fist.
He stared at Shuichi and grazes his bruised and swelled up cheek gently, getting strands of pink hair out of his face. He bit his bottom lip hard, making it bleed a bit. His eyes pierced Shuichi's form harshly as he thought of Yuki. His eyes widened and his pupils dilated.
"Ryu-chan?"
Ryuichi didn't hear her. He stood still and motionless, glaring at the unconscious Shuichi with murderous intent in his eyes, gritting his teeth, until his lips curved up into a malicious smirk.
"Ryuichi-san?"
"He, I'll be back after paying Mr. Novelist a visit." He grinned dangerously.
Ryuichi turned his back on Shuichi's sister and walked out of the room. He walked out to the waiting room where Hiro and the rest were sitting.
"How is he?" Hiro asked Ryuichi as he stood up.
"His cute younger sister is in there, so she'll explain everything to you. I'm going to need to borrow your rad motorcycle to go and pay a certain romantic novelist a visit, after making one little pit stop home. I'll be back here soon."
Hiro cocked his brow in confusion as he listened to Ryuichi.
"You alright, bro? Your mannerisms sound different from usual, Ryuichi." Hiro said as he threw him his keys.
Ryuichi only grinned and waved his hands as he caught it.
"I'll be back, bro." He said walking out of the hospital. He got on Hiro's motorcycle and started it up, loving the sound of the engine.
"Ooo, I love how this baby purrs. Hiro got himself something." He said gently caressing the side of the bike, before driving out of the parking lot.
"I heard you request Ryuichi. I'll make Mr. Novelist pay for what he did to your cute and sweet lover."
Sakano watches Ryuichi leave with a look of dread on his face.
"Oh no, not again." He mumbles quietly to himself. "He hasn't been taking his medication, like he's supposed to."
