Weiss Kreuz Fan Fiction ❯ Undistinguished UnderScore ❯ Chapter 17

Zeva flinched as she felt the IV being jabbed into her skin. She groaned and shifted her head to the side and slowly opened her eyes to meet the blinding lights of the hospital.

"I..Itai.." She covered her eyes with the back of her hand that wasn't busy with an IV to shield the light.

"Zeva! Your awake!!" She heard an all to formillar voice, and the sudden stir and jerk at something beside her.

"Ehh…?" She felt sick, and like she was going to throw up any minute and hopefully no one was in range. If they were..well..GOD have mercy on them. She groaned once more not bothering to remove her hand from her eyes to look at which all hovered her.

"Zeva!" Came an over excited voice "How do you feel?"

"Like I got hit by an 18 wheeler and ate bad sushi at the same time.."

"She'll be fine, gentlemen. The Dr. will be here shortly to report what he found in her blood system." The voice was gentle and feminine, a nurse Zeva concluded. She heard the door click open and click shut then silence filled the air.

"Wait a minute…Did she say gentlemen?" groaned Zeva groggily.

A few gentle chuckles were heard at her question but the voice closest to her only gave her a real answer "Hai.." Zeva finally removed the back of her hand away from her eyes and flinched as her eyes slowly began to focus.

"I have seen the light…and it hurts.." More laughs filled the tiny medical room, and Zeva could finally make out images clearly. Aya stood against the wall, his arms crossed and head slightly down. He was wearing an orange sweater that didn't look to bad with his red hair, and jeans to offset it. Yohji stood at the end of the bed, clothed in jeans and a black V-neck muscle shirt. Omi stood next to him in a white shirt and blue jean shorts. She then slowly rotated her head to look at the only other person who could be next to her, Ken. He kneeled next to her bed, he too wore a muscle shirt like Yohji only not black and not V cut. Instead it was just a simple, dark blue shirt that lightly accented his chest and arm muscles, with simple jeans to make it look all the more casual. Zeva blushed lightly at the sight of Ken's body, it reminded her of when she first met him.

"Damn…out of all the best things I've woken up too..this tops it.." Zeva smirked at her thought and peered into Ken's dark eyes. She could possible hints of dried tears lingering in his eyes, and lack of sleep reared it head as well. Then she spotted the cut on Ken's gentle face that had already started to scab over.

"NE! Ken-Kun! What happened?!" She quickly reached out to finger his facial wound only to have him jerk away without meaning too. "Eh…" Zeva slowly with drew her hand, only to have it clasped by Ken's fingers. Zeva blinked as he pulled her hand toward his face and placed her hand over his wound, tilting his head toward her touch. Zeva didn't know what was going on…she didn't know why she was in the hospital and what had happened last night. The only thing she remembered was blacking out, everything after there was nothing but total darkness in her mind. She suddenly felt Ken lace his fingers over hers and she blushed.

"Gomen, I didn't mean to pull away Zeva.." All the other men stood silent as they watched Zeva and Ken together.

"Ken..what happened last night..?"

Yohji jerked slightly and tensed "You don't remember?"

"All I remember is blacking out…everything after that is nothing but blackness in my mind…and now I'm here…with all of you…and I don't know why…all I remember is hearing Manx yelling before I hit the ground.."

"Nani?! Manx! You were talking to Manx?!" Omi gripped the bed rail as he peered at Zeva in shocked eyes. Zeva stared at Omi confused, only to jerk her hand away from Ken and clasp it over her mouth."

"Oh shit…" Said Zeva through her hand that muffled her words slightly.

"What's going on, Zeva.." Aya had finally spoken from his spot on the wall.

"ano…" Zeva looked around at each one of the guys who all mimicked the same kind of look just about, she merely smiled sheepishly and bent the fingers on her free hand to wave casually "Hi…"

"Ok, I know I'm not the only one who thought it weird that she had my wire!" exclaimed Yohji as he pointed at Zeva.

Zeva blinked "Now I'M confused! What did you do Yohji! Frisk me?!"

"Why the heck would I frisk you?"

"How else would you know I had a replica of your wire on me?!"

"Well it's kinda hard NOT to notice when your being strangled by it, but I can still frisk you if you want me to" Yohji winked at Zeva who blushed in mortification, till what he said finally registered a few seconds later.

"Woah woah woah woah! Stop, Yield make a U-turn and come back for me, please! Why would I strangle you with my wire?"

"I was going to ask you the same question…"

Suddenly a click at the door made everyone's head turn, and Manx stepped through the door.

"Manx-Sama!" Said Zeva sitting up in her bed, but slowly sinking back down as her head swam.

"Glad to see your awake, Zeva."

"Ne, Manx Sama..what happened last night?"

"I was hoping you could tell me that Zeva, When I got there the boys were battered, bleeding and you were unconchus.." At that point in time the doctor had stepped through the door, his eyes scanning over the charts he held in his hand.

"Konnichiwa, Dr." Manx bowed lightly at the Dr. who entered the room and bowed back lightly.

"Konnichiwa, I take it you're a friend of Mrs. Andonius as well?"

Zeva smacked her forehead "Shiiaaattt…did yeah HAVE to say my last name?!"

The Dr. eyed Zeva who seemed rather distraut.

"Andonius…Andonius..I've heard that name before.." Yohji tapped his chin in deep thought.

"Andonius…" Aya dropped his head in thought as well only to raise his head again, but Omi stole his thoughts.

"As in the AMBASSDOR ANDONIUS?!!!"

Zeva groaned "Hai…"

Yohji gripped the railing of the bed and looked at Zeva with shocked eyes "You're the daughter of Ambassador Andonius?!!! The last reaming heir of all his inheritance?!!!"

"Yes, Damn it! I'm rich!!"

Yohji settled lightly and eyed Ken "Lucky basterd…" he mumbled to himself.

"How horrible…" sighed Omi gently "Your family…"

"I'd rather not talk about it..espically in a hospital.."

Omi stopped himself from asking any questions "Gomen.."

The Dr. then cleared his throat to get everyone attention back on what he had come here to deliver.

"Hai, Doctor?" Said Ken, who hadn't said anything up until that point.

The Doctor looked down at Ken who knelt by Zeva's side, lacing his fingers with hers, the doctor cocked an eyebrow and smiled lightly "Are you the boy friend?" Ken and Zeva suddenly turned bright red, and before Ken could get one word out Yohji added his words of wisdom.

"Hai! Doctor! He's the boyfriend alright! So tell us..is Ken a father?"

"YOHJI!!!!!!!!" Ken could feel all of himself blushing and Zeva held her sheets in a death grip.

"Now I have no questions of why I strangled you with that wire…Yohji.."

"I was just joking!!" Yohji slowly backed away from the bed before Zeva pulled any of her Telekinesis on him.

The Doctor's eyebrow twitched lightly and he read over Zeva's charts one more time making sure everything was correct "Well..Actually..No, she's not but we did find out what was in her blood system."

"What was my blood system..?" Zeva looked at Ken was currently eyeing the Doctor. She suddenly felt a rush of fear consume her and she squeezed Ken's hand.

"Hai..we found a large amount of Lithium mixed with Pain Killers, she's lucky she's not dead…"

"Lithium?! What the hell! How did THAT get in my blood-" Zeva froze in the middle of her words as flashes of the fight she had with that man ran through her mind. "K..Kuso..that wasn't a knife.."

Ken turned his attention back to Zeva "Nani..Zeva? What are you talking about??"

"Two nights ago, I was attacked by a man I didn't recognize in my bed room.." Everyone froze and listened to Zeva's words carefully "He attacked me and I fought him, I broke his arm and I stood over him he slammed something into my leg, he ripped it out before I saw what it was..I thought it was just a knife with the way it bled..but when I cleaned it out I found the whole rather small..but I ignored it…my leg felt fine in the morning.."

Aya raised his head and shifted his eyes from Zeva to the Doctor "Ne, Doctor?"

"Hai?"

"Do you know what that kind of mixture would do to a person?"

"Not really…but from common knowledge of lithium and regular over the counter pain killers, it make a person go pretty crazy. Like I said, she's lucky to be alive."

"Ne Zeva..what did the man look like?" Asked Omi gently

"Tall, slightly broad shoulder, blackish blue hair, glasses and he was in a suit." Everyone froze, they knew the description all the well.

"Crawford" Hissed Ken through clenched teeth, he squeezed Zeva's hand tight.

"Eh…babe…BABE! That kinda hurts!!"

Ken's eyes widened "G..Gomen Zeva!"

Yohji snickered "She called you babe, Kawaii.."

The Dr. tucked Zeva's files under his arm and placed his hand on the door, still facing the room full of people and one patient. "She should be fine in a few hours, I'll come back soon to check on her, but she'll have to stay here for a little less than 48-hours. Hospital regulation and everything." With that the Dr. made his exit, Manx following behind him to question him further.

"We better go as well, you probably need your rest." Said Aya as he pushed himself off the wall to stand strait up.

"Arigato Mina, for coming.."

"No prob. Babe." Yohji winked at Zeva and she couldn't help but smile at Yohji being..well..Yohji. Omi smiled and walked over to gently hug Zeva from where she laid.

"Ja-ne Zeva-Chan! Will come back to visit you!"

She smiled at the ambitious young boy and lightly ruffled his hair "Arigato Omi-Chan." She then glanced at Aya, who lightly bowed his head at Zeva. Zeva smiled and gave him a peace sign before he too left the room. That left Ken, who still kneeled by her bed. Ken gently raised Zeva's hand and kissed it as he slowly rose from her beside.

"Feel better.." he peered down at her gently before he turned his back toward her and began to make his way toward the door.

"Wait just a damn minute!"

Ken stopped dead in his tracks and turned around to look at Zeva who pointed at him and then made a "Come here" motion with her finger. Outside the room the other three guys waited.

"Moi! What's taking him so long!" sighed Omi

"He's making out" Yohji smiled smugly as he leaned with his arms behind his head against the wall.

Ken walked back to Zeva's bed and stood over her "..Hai..?" Ken looked rather confused, yet highly adorable at the same time. In a sudden burst of anxiety she latched onto Ken's shirt and yanked him down to where, if he hadn't of caught himself with his hands on the bed, he would of come toppling down on Zeva. Ken blinked in shock, in what seemed like merely seconds he had made contact with her soft lips, and could now feel her soft tongue exploring his mouth. Ken felt a rush of blood run to his face, but slowly relaxed and closed his eyes and slowly slipped his tongue inside of her. They played with each other's mouth in an intimate yet sexual way. Ken groaned lightly and moved more of himself onto the bed, Zeva wrapping her one free arm around his waist and trailing her fingers along his back. He kissed her deeper at the feeling of her touch, and she gently entwined her long fingers in his hair. Slowly, painfully they began to break apart from each other. When completely separated they slowly opened their eyes and looked at each other.

"What just happened.." Said Ken rather dazed.

Zeva blinked, she herself feeling a little dazed "I have no idea…" There was an awkward bit of silence after her words and she bit her lip lightly. "But I liked it..whatever it was.."

Ken blushed and turned away for Zeva's steady eyes "Watashiwa…ano…" He suddenly stopped at feeling her hand brush his face. He looked back at her and leaned his head into her hand.

She smiled quietly as she stared at Ken's gentle face with a peaceful smile on her face. Ken closed his eyes and leaned in to her again, tilting his head at the proper angle. He gently kissed her quickly on the lips before he spoke.

"I'll come back tomarrow..I promise.." Ken slowly rose off the bed and walked toward the door, slowly releasing Zeva's hand as he walked away. As he reached the door he turned around to look at her again and just smiled before he stepped out of the room.

"Don't say a word Yohji.." Said Ken before he even turned around to face his friend.

"I didn't say anything!" Yohji stated in his defense mode.

"No..but you were thinking it really loud!"

"So..how was she?" Yohji draped an arm around Ken's shoulders.

"Yohji-Kun!" Ken cringed and sighed.

"You'll never learn.." Proclaimed Aya.

Ken suddenly smirked and closed his eyes and spoke smugly "But if you must know…she's most likely better than anything you've ever had Yohji." Yohji gaped as Ken slowly began walking away, feeling rather proud of himself. Omi just sighed at the two and Aya watched, trying to hide his amusement.
