And here we are now, 4:13pm. Shuichi continued his way to the hospital, getting closer and closer. He eventually made it, rushing into the parking lot and swerving into a parking spot. He didn't care if he was parked crooked or not, the only thing on Shuichi's mind right now was Kaito. Shuichi slammed the car door, locked his car, and started running up to the hospital entrance. Once he made it in, he went up to the front desk to talk to the receptionist.

"How can I help you?" the front desk lady asked.

"I'm here to visit Kaito Momota." he said, nearly out of breath from running.

The lady typed on her computer for a bit, then spoke again.

"Third floor, room 217."

"Thank you." Shuichi said before running off again.

The blue haired boy quickly made his way to the elevator and pressed the button for the 3rd floor. Of course, the elevator had to stop at the 2nd floor to pick up a few more passengers, and Shuichi tried his best to ignore them and not be awkward. When the doors finally opened, he briskly walked down the hallways, scanning each door for room 217.

214...

215....

216...

That's where the rooms came to an end. On that hallway, of course. Shuichi walked down to the end of the hall, and turned to the right. That's when he started walking down the connected hallway. It only took him a few steps, since 217 was the next room to come. The detective walked up to the door, and paused. Anxiety filled him.

What if Kaito was really hurt?

What if he hurt his head and doesn't remember me?

What if this is the wrong room?

What if this was somehow my fault?

What if-

The bad thoughts would not give the poor guy a break. He developed a cold sweat, and his hands began to shake. Part of him thought about running away. Part of him didn't want to go in there. But of course, he could never abandon the love of his life. Not after everything the other has done for him. After hesitating a few more seconds, he knocked on the door. He waited for a few more long seconds, and the door slowly opened.

"Hey Shuichi, you can come in. He's awake, and I stayed here with him until you got here." Rantaro welcomed.

He stepped back, letting Shuichi walk inside the room. Rantaro shut the door behind him, and Shuichi looked upon the hospital bed to see Kaito. He didn't seem hurt at all; when the injured male saw his boyfriend standing at the other side of the room, his eyes lit up and his smile grew large. One wouldn't be able to tell he was hurt, that is if it wasn't for the cast on his left arm, and the bandages on his right cheek and a few on his chest, most likely covering stitches.

"Shuichi!" the astronaut exclaimed, extending his right arm.

Shuichi could tell what he wanted. He practically ran over to his boyfriend and held him tight. The other wrapped his non-hurt arm around his lover. Both of them only wanted to be close to each other. They both wanted to stay like that forever, but anxiety soon came over Shuichi again, quickly forcing him to break the embrace.

"I-I didn't hurt you or mess anything up, right?" Shuichi asked, a bit panicked.

"Of course not! You worry too much, Shu." Kaito answered.

"Yeah, about you."

Kaito chuckled, and grabbed his boyfriend's hand.

"What even happened?" Shuichi asked, sitting down in a chair next to the bed.

"Well, uh..."  Kaito laughed nervously.

"He fell off a roof." Rantaro cut in.

"What?!"

"Yeah. We and a few other guys found this abandoned building. So, we explored it a bit, and Kaito got on the roof. Then, next thing I know, I heard a crash, run outside, and there's this idiot laying in a bush." Rantaro explained.

"Hey! I'm not an idiot!" Kaito exclaimed.

It took Shuichi a minute to process what happened. When he finally did, he just couldn't help but let out a small laugh. Kaito was okay, he just, did something a little... stupid.

"Hey, what are you laughing at?!" Kaito looked at Shuichi.

"That was a little dumb..." the detective smiled.

"You're supposed to be on my side here!"

"Heh... Sorry, but it's kind of true."

Kaito looked away, his face showing a slight tint of red from embarrassment. Shuichi leaned over and kissed Kaito on the cheek, making the astronaut smile. This just made Shuichi start kissing him more, all over his face.

"Stop, stop! I'm supposed to be mad!" Kaito laughed.

"I love you!" Shuichi told him.

"I love you too!" Kaito replied, finally giving him a kiss.
