I would like to thank JNaegi for helping me write this chapter. No matter how hard it is to write anything that is from what I sent he (yes he's a man) has been able to change what I sent him into a good chapter. Please read and review.

###

Gero and Akagi arrived at the hospital where the latter explained to the nurses and doctors what happened. After taking care of the paper work Akagi sighed with exhaustion and sat next to Gero.

He looked at her. "You know what I love about the hospital staff?"

"I don't want to hear it." She responded.

"You'll love it. It's funny because it usually never happens to me. When we get to the hospital it's always the person who is hurt the most or those that are pregnant. What you should do is bring a pack of blood and pretend it's yours!" He gave a juvenile cackle at his joke.

The maid only scoffed. "That's not even funny. For one thing where am I even supposed to bring blood in from?"

"Just hit your hand against the wall. They'll either bring you in, give you a brain exam or they'll call the police. I thought Taichi would be the first person they would let inside, but he was the third because one of them lost an arm and the other one was bleeding from his cheeks."

Akagi gave a weary sigh. "If that wasn't funny before it wouldn't be funny now! The staff is down ten percent. Eight percent is down from sickness and the other two percent are attending a funeral. Why must this happen to Taichi now."

Gero tried comforting her with words. "He's going to be fine. It's not like he's been poisoned or has a dagger in his back you know?" He could tell Akagi was getting depressed before saying, "Taichi is really important to you, isn't he?"

"He's my master." Akagi replied robotically.

He had enough! "Stop calling him your master; I think what Taichi wants is to think of you as a friend and not a servant of the Kou Family."

Akagi looked surprised before saying, "If I'm not the maid who looks after Taichi how am I supposed to help him?"

"It's your life. If you want to be his maid forever that's up to you but Maybe you should just be his friend or maybe you can stay as his maid. You should do what you want but don't forget what I said!"

Hearing all this come from the ruffian, Akagi gave him a smile. She was wrong on her assumptions about the skater boy.

Soon a nurse approached them. "Hello. Are you two waiting for Taichi?"

The duo got up as the maid spoke. "What's happened to him?" Akagi asked.

The nurse replied easily with a smile. "He just collapsed from not getting enough sleep. You can take him home and make sure he gets plenty of rest."

With that the nurse left them and Akagi felt relieved it wasn't that serious! Gero also was relieved for Taichi and especially Akagi seeing how it drove her to hysteria.

As he was about to say something Gero soon saw the Erina and Tamura heading towards them, to Akagi's displeasure.

The buxom beauty asked without stop, "Where's Taichi?"

"Erina, Tamura, what are you two doing here?" Akagi asked switching to her maid personae.

Tamura answered the question. "We came to your house a day early but no one was home. When we looked around to see if you two were just avoiding us we found a note on the table saying you were taking Taichi to the hospital."

Upon hearing that Akagi gave alleged culprit a glare.

Gero gave a haste reply. "What? I didn't know what was going to happen to Taichi and I felt it was necessary that the girl who cared about him know where he was?"

Sighing at what he did Akagi just let it go and spoke to the siblings. "The nurses say he just needs to rest. That means he won't be staying in the Kou House."

Gero could have sworn he heard a bolt of lightning strike outside as Erina and Akagi glared with a red and blue aura surrounding their frames.

The same nurse returned. "You can take him home but he needs to sleep more." With that she returned to her job of helping the sick and miserable.

When hearing that Erina snapped into action. "We'll take Taichi home. I'll take care of him!"

The maid vetoed boobzilla's plans. "I've taken care of Taichi longer than any of you. I say he'll be better staying at a hospital than in his home. No need for you to get involved!"

"I'm his future bride and I say he belongs in his home with me! The HELP should know their place!"

A red vein popped on Akagi's head as she tried to remain in control. "Maybe he will marry you, but right now you're just a girl who has no education on how to take care of someone."

"I take care of people just fine!"

As the battle of tiger and dragon was about to get underway, Tamaru and Gero looked at this confrontation like a tennis match, none knew how this would end!

"Sis is getting angry, someone do something!"

Seeing that as his mark Gero intervened. "Girls, girls, girls, why don't you just flip a coin to see who takes care of him?" Even Gero can come up with decent plant to a simple solution of relying on luck.

The robot maid responded. "I don't believe luck is a good way to settle an argument."

Erina had a cat like smile with a glint in her eyes. This could be her chance! "Let's do it. I believe in my luck."

"Let me do it." Tamura responded.

"No, you're Erina's brother. You could use a coin that only has one side. If it should be anyone it should be me because I don't really care whose side wins." Pulling out a coin, which wasn't rigged, he flipped it. "Call it."

"Heads!" Akagi called out.

" Tails!" Erina cried.

The coin dropped on the ground and the females were hesitant to go any further.

"Come closer and see for yourselves what the result is to show I haven't changed it."

Both girls did just that and one of them would win and that person was...

" I win the coin toss. In your face!" Erian excitedly stated.

Akagi kept her poker face. "No. That means master Taichi has to leave the hospital!"

Gero stepped in and said, "It's okay, Akagi. I know you care a lot about Taichi but he would be happy being home and not in a hospital, don't you think?"

The maid didn't like what he said but Gero continued. "Also we're the most attractive people in this hospital."

By saying that a giggle escaped Akagi's mouth before she said, "Will you really take care of Taichi? You're not just using him to get everything you want."

Gero responded honestly and from the heart. "Yes, as long as he helps me train for my teaching jobs I will teach him how to better than his normal self."

The maid relented. "I believe you...and thank you for today. I guess you're not such a ruffian after all?"

The mood was right, Gero had raised the tsundere's romantic points to a certain point! Time to make the move!

As he was about go for it Akagi turned cold as ice! " Who said you could touch my arm!"

WHACK!

She gave him a sharp slap and Gero's butt touched the floor hard! The only thing he heard was her high heels clicking against the ground.

Gero muttered a phrase. She seriously ticks me off."

However he didn't say it angrily at all.
