I woke up to a chock. The note I had left had been moved, and the place where Daisuke had fallen asleep was empty. He wasn’t here. Panic started to rush through me and I had to swallow the urge to scream. Had he just left? I frantically sprinted to the door, checking if it was still locked. I took in the door handle, and the door slipped from it’s frame. The locked had been open. Daisuke might very well had just run off.
Further panic started to take over, and hadn’t it been for whatever small dose of rationality in my brain, I would have run around the whole hospital screaming for him. Thank god for slight reamining reason in my mind! I started to move toward the canteen, when a tall boy took a turn and walked toward me. My state was severer and I couldn’t see clear, it wasn’t until I came closer I could see it was Daisuke…
“Thank god”
I felt my knees collapse under me. Stress wasn’t something my mind could handle well. Panic attacks this intense was too much for my already chaotic mind. For a moment I was completely empty.
“What’s happening? Are you okay!? Do you need a doctor!?”
I looked up. Daisukes arms were filled with all sorts of different type of breakfast. It wasn’t from the hospital. Delicious pastries, fried eggs, toast, coffee. I was surprised.
“Did you.. just went out for breakfast?”
He looked confused at me.
“I shouldn’t have? I thought I could get back in time before you woke up and surprise you… to thank you… for last night… But the line at the baker was longer than I had planned and…”
He stopped and I realized tears was dripping down my face. Surprised I wiped away the driblets and tried to get my composure together.
“Eh, oh. Damn… Sorry.”
Daisuke looked completely startled. It was as if he had no idea what to do. Like seeing a worried new mother, who didn’t know what to do with her infant.
Thinking of that relation made me laugh… I laughed while my tears still flooded and the poor boy seems even more puzzled than before.
“It… hahaa… It’s okay” I tried to say between my laugh.
He smiled awkwardly at me and laughed quitely with me. Before we made an even bigger scene, we listed off to my room. I was surprised no one had caught me last night. It was a miracle.
We laid out all of the food out on the broad windowsill while sitting on each end. We watched the scenery as Daisuke opened up for the goodies he had brought.
“Itadakimasu!” We said in choir and laughed. I stuffed my face pretty quickly and noticed that Daisuke stared at me in awestuck.
“I have never seen a woman attacking her food like that” He tried to chuckle a laugh, but it was clear he was about to explode out in giggles.
“’scuse me for being hungry!” I said with my mouth full of food… Charming.
“Pfftt.. What a pretty sight!” He couldn’t hold it in any longer and stopped making any effort in laughing.
“Thanks. For the food”
“It’s okay. Thanks for the sandwhich last night, though I had fallen asleep. I hadn’t slept for 2 days, so I was completely a mess. And sorry for barging in so late … and stay… I’m sorry”
He avoided my eyes again. Not because he was dishonest, but really embarrassed. His cheek flushed and he tried to cover his face with his free hand.
“No need for an apology! I’m just glad you’re not hurt.. I mean, like in danger, or.. You know what I mean. I’m just glad you’re here. When Aya and Isumi told me they hadn’t seen you, and when you ignore my texts and calls, I started to worry you know… So I was just glad you showed up.. And its perfectly okay if you don’t want to talk about it, but.. You know.. I’m here to listen if you want and…”
He had placed his finger on my mouth to stop me from talking. I could probably had blabbered for an hour. I tended to do that when I didn’t know how far I was allowed to go.
“Thanks. It’s okay. I want to tell you… At another time. Okay? Let’s just enjoy the meal”
I found his smile seductive. Daisuke could be extremely sexy when he was honest and straigh forward. Something about him had always drawn me toward him, but never like this right now. I could have kissed him. I’m positive he could have done anything to me, he wanted in that moment.
The door to my room clicked open and I snapped out of my daze… In the the door stood Kouro, looking quite upset with a deep frown and a killer stare - not toward me but toward Daisuke. What was going on?
