Chapter &

...Always

 

 

Aiko woke up to the sound of her heart moniter and murmuring outside the hospital room door. As she gained contiousness, the voices became clearer.

 

“Are you sure you don't know who called the med-nins? I would like to thank them.”

 

The sound of her mother's voice drifted through her fogged brain.

 

“Yes, we are sure. Whoever the person was made sure to be completly annonomus.”

 

“Hm.”

 

They opened the door and when they noticed she was awake Sakura ran over to her daughter.

 

“Oh. I'm so glad you're finally awake!” She said bending down to kiss her daughter on the cheek. That's when Aiko remembered.

 

“Oh! Where Ichiro, is he ok, was he hurt to bad, is he...dead.” She said the last part at a quivering whisper.

 

“No, he's not dead, but the condition he's in isn't much better.”

 

“What!” Aiko gasped. What was she talking about?! Was he going to be ok?!

 

“He was knocked uncontious and is suffering from severe head trama and a concusion.” the med- nin said solumly.

 

“Oh no,” She whispered “May I go see him?”

 

“Well, it looks like you will be ok, you've been out for a couple of days so I should really keep you in bed, but...I guess you can visit him.”

 

“Merushi!” (another word for Thank You)

 

Aiko jumped out of bed and ran down the hall. She searched in almost every room, and when she got to Ichiro's she almost burst into tears. It wasn't that he looked bad, it was just that she almost expected him to turn his head and give her that goofy smile that was saved espeicialy for her. When he didn't she almost couldn't bear it.

 

He was so still, almost as if he was dead. The only indication that he wasn't was the heart moniter and his chest moving up and down slightly. She walked hesitatingly towards him. It scared her a little to see him like this. And deep in her heart, she new...

 

It was all her falt.

 

Tears made hot tracks down her face as she stepped up to the side of the bed and spoke softly to him.

 

“Ichiro, why didn't you keep going, why didn't you run home, why did you deffend me and put yourself in harms way, WHY WERE YOU SO STUPID ICHIRO!!!”

 

No answer.

 

She laid her head in his lap and sobbed.

 

Then, she heard a voice, cracked as if from disuse.

 

“Because you are my friend and I'll always be there for you.”

 

He closed his eye's and the heart moniter gave one last beep before the dreaded shrill sound rang throughout the room.

 

“Ichiro...Ichiro! ICHIRO!”

 

A medical nurse ran in.

 

“Damn! Someone get her out of here! Hurry, someone get the doctor!”

 

Aiko was shoved out of the room.

 

No.

 

“CLEAR!”

 

This can't be happening.

 

“CLEAR!”

 

He can't be dead.

 

“Doctor we're not getting a reasponse.”

 

He shouldn't die!

 

“Call it.”

 

“NOOOOOOOO!”

 

Aiko ran as fast as she could, away from the hospital, away from the doctors, away from Ichiro. She ran long and hard til she was outside the gates of Kohana. She ran a few more miles and just as she was about to calapse from exaustion, she ran right into a tall dark figure.

 

The clouds were covering the moon, so all she could see the outline of what appeared to be a tall male of some sort. But the rest of his body was shrowded by a black cloak.

 

“Where, are you running to?” The male asked in a deep smooth voice, so as not to scare her. The sound of it made shivers run up and down her spine nonetheless.

 

“Um, n-nowhere.”

 

“There is no need to be scared. Tell me where you live, and I will return you home.”

 

“No! I-I mean, I don't want to go home.”

 

“...May I ask why?”

 

Aiko looked down, not wanting to trust this complete stranger, but something about him felt...familiar.

 

“Very well, you may travel with me if you want to.”

 

There was that feeling again...

 

“...O-okay.”

 

As she fallowed him down the path, the moon came out of the clouds just long enough for her to notice a long ash black braid swinging back and forth in front of her.

Okay so that should be enough drama to last you for a while, don't ya think. And for those of you who I'm sure have guessed who it is, YES he has a braid. I mean it's been like what, 7 or 8 years, I bet you it's grown. Besides I think a braid would look good on him. DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE CONTEST!!! Start's now and ends March 20th so that'll give me some time to pick a winner before school starts again!
