Chapter Thirteen (Yay! Thirteen is the best number. ^^;; It's my jersey number too. ^^)
Revealed Secret
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
It had been three days since the incident with the doctor and Seiji wanted nothing more than to get out of the hospital. He was tired of laying in bed all day with everyone fussing over him. His fever had finally broken when he woke up that morning and everyone was excitited. Everyone but Seiji.
The blonde sighed while looking out the window. They had moved him since he was no longer in critical condition.
"Seiji?" The archer said to get his attention. "Nan desu ka." He wanted to know what was wrong with the swordsman. He could clearly see taht something was, Seiji wasn't even excited when his fever had broken. Sure, he was happy, I mean who wouldn't be? He just wasn't as happy as you'd think someone would be after surviving the poison. Touma, who had been true to his word, never left Seiji's side, unless he needed to use the bathroom or something like that, but then he quickly returned.
Touma's voice had startled Seiji. He had forgotten that he was with him; he'd gotten too lost in his thoughts. He noticed that Touma was looking at him as if expecting a response. "Nani?" He asked when he realized that he had no idea what the archer had asked him.
"Are you alright, koi?" It wasn't the first time he had called Seiji that but he could hardly believe that Seiji really was his. After how long he'd wanted to be able to be with him and be able to kiss him or just comfort him.
Seiji smiled at the name, also glad that they were finally together. "Hai. I'm fine, don't worry."
The others still didn't know about their relationship and he didn't know how they would react to either. He didn't care though, no one was going to come between them. They both thought that Shin knew though. Every time he saw Touma next to Seiji or he saw them holding hands a big smile grow on his face.
"I know something is wrong, Seiji?" He used his name to show his seriousness. "You've been looking out that window and sighing all day."
Seiji knew that Touma would never stop until he got his answer so he decided that he should just tell him the truth. With another sigh he replied, "I just want out of here. I've been here for at least a week or maybe even more, I don't know. I can't do anything, certainly not by myself! I'm tired of it!" Seiji shouted losing his calm composure.
Touma was taken aback by Seiji's outburst but he should have known that would be what was bothering his lover. Seiji had always liked his solitude.
"I'm sorry, koi, but you're just going to have to wait until the doctory says you can leave." That did nothing to calm Seiji down.
"No! I've had enough of this! I'm leaving now!" He tried to get up but was pushed back down.
Seiji had a lot more strength than Touma thought he would have. Seiji was able to push the archer down and ran for the door. However, he didn't get very far since he was still weak and his tired body couldn't handle the strain yet.
When Seiji fell Touma was instantly at his side, helping him up. Once the blonde was on his feet he started heading towards the door again.
Touma was worried about Seiji. He knew that the swordsman wanted out but he didn't think he would try this hard to leave. The blonde's strength had also surprised him. He was afraid that Seiji was going to pass out again by the way he was breathing and it looked as though he were about to fall. "Seiji, calm down. You need to rest more."
"Dame! I'm leaving now!" Just as Seiji was about to reach the door it opened and the other troopers stood there staring at the scene before them.
"What's going on?" Ryo asked surprised that Seiji was even able to get out of bed, he seemed a bit weak on his leg though.
"And why is Seiji out of his bed?" Shin questioned, concerned about the swordsman health.
"I'm leaving! There's no way I'm going to stay another night here! Either get the doctory to release me or I'll leave without him knowing. Doesn't matter to me. I'm leaving either way." Seiji said and meant every word. He didn't know how he would actually get out without any help since he was near collapse now but he'd find a way.
The others knew how headstrong Seiji was and knew that the swordsman would find a way out tonight, whether the doctor wanted him to or not.
"Okay, koi, I'll ask the doctor. Only if you promise to stay in bed and rest until I come back." Touma felt bad for his lover knowing that he desperately wanted to get out. He was trying to reassure Seiji and hadn't realized he'd called him "koi." It did work though, Seiji had stopped struggling. It was also because he was no longer able to try and leave, his body being too exhausted.
Seiji was surprised when Touma had called him that. He didn't think he would call him anything affectionate in front of the guys until they told him about their relationship.
"Koi?" Ryo asked confused. Shuu was confused as well but Shin just smiled glad that Touma had finally been able to show his feelings in front of them.
Before either answered, Touma helped Seiji to his bed so the exhausted swordsman could rest.
Once he had carefully layed Seiji on the bed he answered. "Ummm... yeah. We're... uhh.. going out now." Touma said looking down, afraid of what their reactions would be.
Ryo was shocked. "When did this happen?" He coudn't believe that they had actually gotten together.
"...right before Seiji was injected with the antidote." Touma answered quietly. He looked up when he didn't get any other response. He first looked to Shin who had a smile of his face, he was very relieved to see it too. Then he looked at Ryo who seemed shocked at the news, which was understandable; then he looked at Shuu who seemed almost angry by the news.
Ryo finally spoke after getting over his surprise. "Well, I'm happy for you guys." He was very sincere. He hoped they would be able to help each other and Seiji really needed support eight now.
Both Seiji and Touma smiled warmly at Rekka, glad to hear his support. Their smied faded when they saw Shuu head towards the door without a word. "Where are you going, Shuu?" Touma asked, scared that he'd ruined their long-time friendship. He had known Shuu the longest an thought that he's understand the most out of everyone.
"I-I'll be back, I promise. I just need some time to think about... everything." He spoke with his back towards them and then he went out the door.
Everyone frowned. "Don't worry, you guys, he'll be fine with it. You know him." Shin said comfortingly.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Shuu was happy to hear that Touma and Seiji had finally found someone they could trust and love, especially Touma. He hadn't had much of a childhood and hadn't gotten much love from anyone. As far as he knew Seiji was the same.
Kongo was just angry that Touma hadn't told him about his feelings for Seiji. Yeah, not the smartest thing to be so mad aboutbut it was so unexpected. I mean, would you think that one of your friends would have feelings for eachother when they're all guys? There had been some signs though, like the way Touma looked at Seiji and how he had reacted when Seiji was kidnapped. They had all been very worried, of course, but Touma was almost hysterical.
'I know Touma was just afraid of how all of us would react to their relationship and Touma probably didn't want us to know about his feelings just incase.' He thought about how he had reacted to the news. 'Great, I probably made him think I hate him.'
Shuu decided he'd go back and tell Touma and Seiji how happy he was for them, which is what he should have done in the first place.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Ten minutes after Shuu had left Seiji had reminded Touma that he had wanted to get out so the archer left to talk to the doctory. About twenty minutes later he came back.
"Well...? Seiji asked hoping.
"The doctory just has to do another check-up to see how your injuries are doing." It had taken a long time for Touma to convince the doctor to let Seiji go home. In truth neither of them thought he should leave just yet but they figured that it would be best, especially since Seiji really would carry out his threat about leaving by himself.
The blonde nodded his head, happy by the news but tried to conceal it behind his mask. He didn't really want to get his hopes up but couldn't help it.
Touma smiled at Seiji's attempt to hide his excitment. Ryo and Shin also smiled knowing that Seiji had o be happy about getting out no matter what his features showed.
The door opened and Shuu came in.
"Shuu..." Touma started.
"Iie. Let me talk first." Shuu interrpted. When he was sure that no one was going to talk he started. "Look you guys, I'm really sorry with how I reacted. I am really that you guys are together. You both need each other." He sighed and ran his hand through his hair. "I was just kind of mad that you guys," he said looking at Touma, "didn't tell me anything. I don't know why though because I wouldn't've been able to do anything. I was being stupid. Gomen." Shuu looked down.
Touma went over to him and lifted his chin up to look at him. "Shuu there's nothing to apologize for. You're my best friend and always will be." The archer hugged him.
"Okay, enoughof this mushy stuff." Shuu said pulling back.
Before anyone could say anything else the doctor walked in. Seiji looked excited, though he was trying to hide it.
"Well, let's start this. Since Date-san wants to get out so badly." He still didn't think he should leave but Touma had convinced him everything would be alright and that it'd be worse if Seiji stay. "Could I ask please ask you to leave?"
Ryo, Shin and Shuu nodded and left but Touma wouldn't leave, keeping his promise from before.
"You know, I'm not going to leave."
"Hai, I know." The doctor said. Everytime he had to check Seiji Touma had been there, refusing to leave no matter what.
The doctor looked at Seiji's injuries. He frowned. "Did Date-san have another nightmare?"
"No. Doushite?" Touma asked confused. He didn't like the frown on the doctor's face either.
"It looks like he's torn some stiches."
Seiji looked up worriedly at Touma; then asked the doctory, "Does that mean I won't be able to leave today?" He asked afraid of the answer.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Yeah, I know, a pretty stupid place to leave the story, but... whatcha gonna do? I don't know how the whole thing with Shuu was, I thought it was kinda weird, but whatever. I hope that you're still enjoying this. I'll get the next chapt out as soon as I can.
Plz review! I love reading your comments! ^^
