Thankful Meeting

HHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!
Lovely to see you all again!
This, my friends is chapter 7!!
Oh yeah!
((NEW CHARACTER ALERT!))

Akila** THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I love being praised. LOL. But then again everyone does.

Yana** Don’t fret my dear friend, Akuma is going down! (evil laugh)

EMYLI** THANK YOU! But I’m curious, what part is unrealistic?

Lella** I know it’s kind of sad but it’ll get happier. As for the leg, well I thought the same thing but then I wanted him to be able to get up. SO, here’s the plan, Shuichi did break his leg. It’s in a cast and because he’s just too preoccupied and worried, he doesn’t notice the pain. Deal?

Kira-chan** I’m so glad that Inumoon3 told u about my story and I’m really glad that you read it. Thank you. Oh and I’ll take your suggestion into account. Thanks for the luck!

Rosemary** Thanks, I’ll try.

Nekosune** Oh, how was the vacation? I feel so proud to know you checked mine first lol. Ooooo, and more cookies? Thanks. Got any peanut butter ones?

Tammy-love** Here’s more just 4 you.


Chapter7::

Shuichi walked out into the parking lot leaning against the wall. He wasn’t feeling too well as his head started to spin. He was in pain, though he didn’t notice, and all the heat didn’t seem to help his situation. Shuichi stopped walking and watched the car that started to drive out into the street. He barely saw a tuff of blonde hair as the car turned the corner. Shuichi started to go after it but stopped after a couple of steps and held his head. He began to get dizzy and dropped to the ground. As soon as he leaned back against the wall, Shuichi passed out.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Akuma was walking toward Shuichi’s room when he noticed the door open and some nurses and a doctor inside. He rushed to the doorway and began to say, “What Hap…”
He trailed off when he saw that Shuichi wasn’t in the bed. “Where the hell is he? What did you ass holes do?” He yelled angrily with fists clenched tight.

A doctor looked over his shoulder at Akuma then turned to a nurse and whispered something to her, pointing at Akuma. The nurse walked over and gently pushed him out of the room and into the hall. She then said sweetly, “It’s alright sir. We’re just having a little problem locating the patient.”

Akuma narrowed his eyes at her and told her quietly, “You can’t find him?” Then he raised his voice, almost yelling, “You lost him? How can you lose a patient?”

The nurse held up her hands and said calmly,”Sir, you have to calm down. This thing happens all the time but we usually find them in the cafeteria. I’m sure that’s where he is.”

“Don’t tell me to calm down! And if he is at the cafeteria then why aren’t you all looking there? I want you to find him right now!” Akuma continued to yell in the poor nurses’ face.

As Akuma started to pace, the doctor from inside the room came out and said quietly but in a tone that said he was upset, “Sir, please refrain from yelling in a hospital. If you don’t be quiet immediately, I’ll have you removed from the premises.”

Akuma’s face screwed up in anger and he walked off down the hall extremely mad. At the end of the hall he turned around and yelled back, “If you don’t find him soon I’ll sue you for negligence!” Akuma turned back and rounded the corner, coming upon the stairwell and releasing his rage on each stair. Needing to cool off, Akuma walked out to the parking lot. He was pacing back and forth and suddenly stopped when he saw Shuichi sitting on the ground in front of him. His head was down and he was leaning against the wall, unconscious. Akuma stood there for a couple seconds stunned before slowly walking over to him and crouching down. He whispered, “Shuichi?” When Shuichi didn’t stir, Akuma picked him up and walked back into the hospital. ‘That bastard must have tried to take him away. I guess Shuichi refused to go.’ Akuma thought to himself and let a smile grace his lips. “It’ll be alright Shuichi. Don’t worry about a thing. I’ll take care of him for you.”

Once Shuichi was safe in his room again and Akuma had explained where he found him, He walked down to the cafeteria and found a table away from the crowd. Akuma got out his cell phone and dialed a number he knew by heart.

On the third ring the other end picked up. “Yeah, Akuma, what is it this time?” The man asked.

“I have a job for you. I need you to take care of someone for me.” Akuma said in a voice full of hate.

The man smiled and asked jokingly, “What kind of job my friend? Someone giving you trouble?”

Akuma let out a small chuckle. “You know who Eiri Yuki is right? I need you to make him gone. And while you’re at it, Take care of this guy named Hiroshi Nakano. He’s one of Shuichi’s band mates.”

“Well, that’s an expensive job, taking out two celebrities and all. I’ll need double the usual payment.”

“Just tell me you can do it and you’ll get your damn money!” Akuma demanded.

“Yeah, yeah, sure thing. But tell me something. What did these two do to you anyway?” The man asked with a laugh in his voice, deliberately trying to piss off Akuma. ‘The guy can get one hell of a temper over the smallest things.’

Akuma got angry and yelled, “That’s none of your business!”

The man smiled at his accomplishment and said, “Geez, man, I got it. Calm down already. Just have the money delivered by tomorrow.” The guy then hung up, leaving Akuma fuming and a few people glancing his way after his sudden outburst.

^*^*^*^

Shuichi opened his eyes and looked around his room. ‘Well doesn’t this look familiar?’ He thought sarcastically. Shuichi sat up in bed and just stared straight ahead, thinking. ‘I guess I must have passed out in the parking lot. That means I didn’t get the chance to talk to Yuki. Is it my imagination or did Akuma carry me in and tell me that he was going to take care of someone?’ Still thinking, Shuichi laid back against the headboard. But almost immediately he shot back up, saying franticly, “Would he seriously hurt Yuki? No, he couldn’t do that, Akuma doesn’t even know who he is. Maybe it’s Hiro! Maybe he noticed Hiro was getting suspicious!” Shuichi threw back his covers and started to get out of his bed. ‘Damn it. I wish I knew where my cell went.’

Before Shuichi could get to his clothes a nurse came in the door. “Oh dear, you have to get back in bed right away. You can’t be up and around. How do you expect to heal?” She said in a pleasant voice. The nurse moved over and gently shoved Shuichi over to his bed and sat him down. Pushing Shuichi so that he lay down, the nurse pulled up the covers.

“But…” Shuichi tried to protest but was cut off.

“No buts, now stay there. Your lunch is in the hall, I’ll bring it in.” The nurse walked out grabbed a tray off of the cart in the hallway and came back. She set the tray by Shuichi on the table and turned to leave. “I’ll be back to get the tray when you’re done.”

“Hey, um, do you know where my cell phone is?” Shuichi asked the nurse before she left.

The nurse turned around with a pleasant smile on her face and replied, “Why of course dear, your friend has it. You know you can’t use cell phones in patient care areas.” Then the nurse walked out the door without another word.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^

Atari Hito, with his short, red -dyed hair and black eyes, walked over to his computer. Turning it on, he did a search on Eiri Yuki and Hiorshi Nakano. After finding what he wanted, Atari went to his closet and pulled out a black sweater and blue faded jeans. Putting them on, Atari grabbed his keys and went out the door.

*^*^*^*^*^*^

Hiro and Suguru were taking a lunch break at the deli across from NG. When Hiro finished he stood up saying, “I’m going to visit Shuichi. See if he’s awake yet.”

Suguru sighed and said uninterestedly, “Yeah, ok. I’ll see you tomorrow then. I know you won’t be able to work when you come back.”

Hiro thought about that then silently agreed and walked out the door. He went to his bike and got on, putting his helmet on and driving into traffic. Coming to a light, Hiro turned the corner and brushed off the fact that the car behind him did the same. But when Hiro turned again at the next corner, so did that same car that was now riding really close to his bike. Hiro sped up just in case, thinking it was just a coincidence.

The car sped up as well, keeping close to Hiro. Getting angry at the fact that it might be a reporter, Hiro drove into the approaching, deserted parking lot of an empty store. He pulled into a spot and got off his bike turned the engine off. The car turned into the parking lot and parked a few spaces away from Hiro, turning of his engine and getting out. Hiro noticed a well built guy getting out and decided to approach him. “You got a problem?” The guy came up to Hiro and punched him in the gut. With Hiro bending over, the guy hit him on the back of the head and Hiro fell to the ground. ‘He hits hard.’ Hiro thought in pain.

The guy pulled out a needle filled with something and stuck it in Hiro’s arm. When Hiro went limp, the guy picked him up and set him back down by his bike, leaning against it. He put the needle in Hiro’s hand and went back over to his car. ‘That should do the trick within a couple of hours.’ The man thought as he got into his car.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^

Yuki got home and stepped thru his door. He went to his office and turned on his laptop. Yuki then went to his kitchen to make some lunch before getting lost in his latest novel. He opened the cupboards and looked around, getting annoyed when he found nothing in them. “Looks like I forgot to go to the store.” Sighing, Yuki decided to go now before he forgot again and went to grab his keys.

He walked down the hall of the building toward the parking lot and noticed someone quietly following behind him. Yuki caught a glimpse of him went he was locking his door and decided to find out what the guy was up to.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Shuichi set the tray back on the table when he was done and waited for the nurse to come back. Within five minutes she walked thru the door with a smile on her face. “I see you’ve finished. Well, I’ll just get that out of you’re way. Is there anything you need?”

“Um, yeah. Who am I going to be released to when I can get out of here?” Shuichi asked.

The nurse slightly turned her head in question and replied in an unsure tone. “You mean whose taking you home and going to take care of you until you get better? That would be Shoyu-san. Why do you ask?”

Looking upset, Shuichi asked, “Is there anyway I can change that? I mean I should be able to choose shouldn’t I?”

The nurse smiled sympathetically and said very pleasantly, “Of course dear! Who would you like? Another friend?”

Shuichi didn’t understand the sympathy but smiled anyway and said brightly, “Yes, his name is Yuki! I have his card in my pants pocket.”

The nurse found his pants and pulled out the card, looking it over. “I’ll just be right back. I’m going to take care of this dear.” The nurse smiled widely as she exited the room.

An hour later, and the nurse had already come back, the doctor came to check up on him and now Akuma was in the room, fuming mad. “I just happened to look at your file and it said that you’re going to be released into the care of some Eiri Yuki. What’s that all about Shuichi? How dare you do something like that without my permission!”

Shuichi narrowed his eyes and clenched his one good hand into a fist. “I don’t have to ask your permission for anything! I don’t want you taking care of me plain and simple. I can care for myself, I don’t need you!”

Akuma narrowed his eyes as well and said quietly with a hint of rage, “Don’t you say that again. You don’t know what you’re talking about. Haven’t I told you that I’m the only one who can care for you?” Akuma took a step forward and grabbed a handful of Shuichi’s hospital shirt and pulled him so they were face to face. “Remember what happened the last time you tried to leave?”

Shuichi managed to get Akuma’s hand off of his shirt and hit Akuma in the face. “Don’t even try or I’ll call the police so fast your head will spin.”

Akuma wiped blood from his mouth and looked at Shuichi in surprise. “Well, I see you’ve gotten stronger.” Akuma took Shuichi’s chin in his hand and tilted it up so Shuichi could look into his eyes. “Don’t you see what this guy is doing to you? He’s trying to take you away from me. Don’t let him control you like that Shu. Think about that, I’ll be back in a little bit.” Akuma said with a pleading voice and then kissed Shuichi on the lips softly.

When Akuma pulled back, Shuichi spit in his face and wiped his mouth. Enraged, Akuma stepped back and hit Shuichi across the face and turned to leave.
