-Chapter 5-

"Masamune, stop."

"Why?"

"Because I said so! I'm not hungry."

"The doctor said you need to eat something. You practically haven't eaten in a week."

"Ugh, I'm too tired to argue with you."

"Exactly, so let me feed you," Masamune scooped up another spoonful of rich chocolate pudding. He aimed it towards Onodera's mouth, but said male turned his head away and closed his mouth tight. Takano tried two more times, but was unsuccessful.

"You've only been awake for a day and you're already cranky," Takano mumbled as he placed the spoon down, defeated. Onodera turned back and rolled his eyes tiredly.

"Please can I feed you?" Takano asked sweetly, giving him puppy dog eyes. He knew that his husband had a major soft spot for his infamous puppy dog eyes. Onodera tried to hold out by saying, "Why should I?"

"Because it's Christmas and I like feeding you."

Onodera fought with himself and lost the battle, grumbling, "…Fine."

He yielded to Takano's advances and was spoon fed his dessert. He was only allowed to eat soft foods at the moment and nothing hot, so he was given pudding. Takano had been trying to feed him all day, but he never had a bite of anything. Finally, resorting to begging, Onodera had given in.

"You're really adorable when you blush," Masamune smirked as Onodera took another spoonful of pudding with pink cheeks. His body was still weak, but he was able to blush. This is what Takano missed the most; his cute face and the small things Onodera did that made his heart race. This is what Takano had fallen in love with about his beautiful lover and was scared to death he would never be able to see him again. The whole accident hadn't helped Takano's nerves, but his Ritsu was finally back, as feisty and cute as ever.

"Shut up or I'll kick you out," Onodera pouted. Takano smiled and leaned forward to kiss him. After pulling back, he said, "Oh, Riko's coming."

"What? When?!"

"In like, five minutes."

"Why didn't you tell me?!" Onodera's eyes grew in alarm and Takano smirked.

"Has she been here the entire time?" Onodera asked.

"She's been in Japan since the day of the accident. I gave her a key and let her stay in our apartment until she goes back."

"Why has she stayed so long?"

"She said she wouldn't leave until you woke up."

"And what if I never woke up?" Onodera said before he was fed more pudding.

"Then she'd still be here," Both men laughed, knowing this would be true. Suddenly they heard someone rushing through the halls outside his room.

"Don't tell me she's running while she's pregnant!" Onodera frowned just as Riko burst into the room.

"Nii-chan!" Riko flew into the room and was suddenly upon Ritsu, squeezing him to death.

"Riko….you're….gonna break…the rest of my…ribs," Onodera choked out as he was crushed in his twin's hug. She let go and tears of joy ran down her cheeks.

"I'm so happy you're fine! Don't make us worry like that again, you asshole! Don't jump in front of a damn car again!"

"I didn't do it because I felt like it! I'm sure you'd do the same for your husband!" Onodera flushed as he argued.

"Well I'm actually smart, so I would have pulled him out of the way towards me. This way, we're both out of danger and I don't get crushed by a car!"

"It was all in the heat of the moment! You don't have time to think about that kind of thing and just act on adrenaline. Why don't I put your husband in front of a car and see how you react?!"

"Okay children, let's not fight," Takano found their bickering amusing and both twins replied heatedly in unison, "We are not children!"

"Takano-san, don't you think Ritsu is stupid?"

"Very," Takano deadpanned. Onodera gawked at both of them and screeched, "I hate both of you! I'm the patient here, so you should be nice. Why are you so mean?"

"Well, I'm pregnant and hormonal. That's my excuse," Riko stated.

"What about you?" Onodera shot a glare at Takano and he replied nonchalantly, "Because I love you."

"T-That isn't even a valid reason," Onodera grumbled and blushed. Riko noticed the unfinished pudding and said, "Have you eaten regularly like you're supposed to?"

"No, he won't eat more than a few spoonfuls of pudding. I had to beg him to eat it," Takano snitched. Onodera shot him an angry look that read "Traitor!"

"Onodera Ritsu," Riko growled and towered over him. Even with her huge stomach poking out, she was still extremely intimidating.

"U-Uh, I….I just w-wasn't hungry!" Onodera squeaked and held his hands up in defense.

"If you don't eat, I will break the rest of your bones!"

Onodera immediately snatched up his spoon and ravaged his pudding. Riko's face turned into a huge smile and she giggled, "Good! Make sure you eat plenty!"

"I'm not ever talking to you, tattle-tale," Onodera growled at Takano.

Onodera's eyes drooped after eating and Riko left, leaving the two males alone. The green-eyed brunette turned slightly on his left side, facing Takano.

"Tired?" Takano ran his fingers through the smaller man's soft auburn locks.

"Mmm…" Onodera mumbled sleepily and closed his eyes. After a few silent moments, Onodera asked quietly, "Masamune?"

"Hm?"

"I love you," Onodera yawned and fell asleep. Takano smiled and leaned forward, placing a chaste kiss on his lips and whispered softly, "I love you too Ritsu."

~3 Months Later~

Onodera was finally released from the hospital after a month, sent home on strict bed rest. He had to attend therapy for his arm and leg to gain full function again while he was in the hospital and the first month he was home. Luckily, his arm break hadn't been as bad as his leg and he had his cast removed after a few weeks. He was getting his cast off tomorrow on his leg and could finally walk without using crutches. As Dr. Fukushima had said, he was very lucky after all. The only scars he would have would be the ones from his surgery, and those could easily be covered with a shirt. And he had become ambidextrous since his right arm had been broken.

Takano went to work while Onodera was home, but he came home early unless it was Hell Week. Onodera asked everyday about work and admitted he missed the stressful, overbearing, and hellish job. He had grown quite bored of staying in bed all day and secretly hobbled around the building in the afternoon. He didn't dare tell his over-protective husband, because Takano got pissed if he just caught Onodera out in the living room walking around, and imagine how he would be if he knew about Onodera's secret walks.

The next day, Friday, finally approached and Onodera practically jumped out of bed when Takano came home. He was finally getting his cast off! He grabbed the crutches beside the bed and stood up. He leaned on the thin metal supports and hobbled out.

"Okaeri Masamune," Onodera greeted. Takano rose an eyebrow and barked, "Oi, what are you doing up?"

"I have to get up anyways! We're going to the doctor's today, remember?" Onodera snapped back.

"I know. I was going to carry you to the car," Masamune smirked as Onodera's face flushed pure red. He then gave his only little smirk and scoffed, "You? You're too old to carry me now; you might drop me!"

Onodera shuffled past Takano triumphantly towards the door, thinking he had gained a point. But he suddenly gasped as he felt himself being swept up and held in Takano's arms like a princess.

"Hey! Let me down!" Onodera squirmed in his arms, holding his crutches.

"Ha, manuscripts are heavier than you," Takano replied as he smoothly walked out the door and to the car.

Reaching the car park, Takano finally put him down. They drove off and arrived at the hospital mere minutes later.

.

.

An hour later, Onodera walked out on both legs and without crutches. Takano still insisted on carrying him but Onodera ignored him and walked. Well, more like crawled it seemed. He was still getting used to independently walking and his leg was very stiff, so he moved at a turtle's pace. It took five minutes to get to the car compared to the twenty seconds it took Takano. Takano resisted laughing at his poor, slightly crippled, husband as he limped to the car. But Onodera saw the playful smirk he had and growled, "Don't you dare laugh. This is all your fault."

Getting back upstairs to the apartment was another tedious adventure. It took Onodera a good ten minutes to hobble from the car to the elevator. At last, they reached their home and Onodera collapsed on the couch exhausted.

"I never knew walking could be so tiring," Onodera yawned and leaned back against the cushions.

"That's why you're not going in to work until at least next week," Takano said.

"What? Next week! But I want to go in this week!" Onodera whined.

"Absolutely not."

"B-But Masamune…." Onodera pouted.

"No. You are not ready physically for working. This is an order from your superior," Takano commanded. Onodera knew not to argue and looked down sadly.

Takano looked at the melancholy look on his lover's face. He hated it when his Ritsu was so sad and sighed, defeated. He had a soft spot as well for his husband.

"Fine, you can go into work this week. But you are absolutely forbidden from doing any excessive walking and are going home early," Takano watched as Onodera's bright green emeralds lit up and he smiled. He felt his own heart skip a beat as he looked at Onodera's unbelievably beautiful smile.

"Really? Thank you Masamune!" Onodera stood up and hugged him. Takano embraced him back and kissed the top of his head. The brunette leaned up and pressed his lips to the older male's lips, smiling happily.

"Okay, I've been holding out for three months. I'm dying," Takano replied as he pushed Onodera back onto the couch gently and hungrily kissed him.

Onodera smiled as he walked in the front doors of Marukawa. The place looked almost unfamiliar to him; he had been gone so long. He had told Takano to go ahead of him this morning because he wanted to take a cab then walk the rest of the way here. This of course took a huge chunk of time and Onodera hadn't arrived until almost ten o'clock. He was already starving from the effort of walking.

He walked on with difficulty and arrived in Emerald. Kisa nearly jumped him as soon as he walked in and the girls from the Sapphire department surrounded him, doting on him like a hurt child.

"Ri-chan, are you okay?"

"You should sit down! Can I get you anything?"

"I'm so glad you're back! We were worried!"

"You poor baby!"

Onodera finally managed to get to his desk and sit down. The crowd finally thinned after ten minutes when Takano came marching in. They all fled when they saw the scary raven-haired man and he yelled, "Get back to work you bums!"

Takano ruffled Onodera's hair as he passed and said, "Welcome back."

Onodera smiled to himself for knew he was glad to be back.

THE END~!
