30 | Dear (Y/N), when I die

Dr. Doyle and Dr. Hamish walked away, waving goodbye at me, eventually leaving the room.

I looked over at Kakyoin who stretched himself.

"Stop stretching yourself and go back to sleep, it's 5am."
I remarked, leading him to turn his face to my direction, letting his hands fall down on the bed.
"But you're going with me then, (Y/N)."

"Yeah, I will go as well. We need to sleep a lot to be fit after all!"
I cheered us up as I closed my eyes in content.
"You're right with that. Let's go to sleep and dream about something nice."

I didn't hear Kakyoin lie down in bed, so I opened one eye and looked over at him.

"Say, Kakyoin, do you think we will still manage to fight DIO?"
"Hm? I'm confident we will make it in time. Why, do you have doubts?"

"I mean, I probably will, if they're not already fighting DIO right now. But I'm worried about you and your eyes."
"I will be fine, don't worry about me, you worry ward. The Speedwagon Foundation is really high tech and all that."

"I'm your friend, of course I have to worry about you. And yes, you're right."
"Those few days of us missing will be fine."

"I wonder if we're all really fit for facing DIO. He sounds so powerful, controlling so many people... but it happened a lot of times in history that many rulers talk big but can't do anything on their own. I don't want to make you remember bad stuff, but, you met DIO, right?"
"Yes, I did, when my parents and I were travelling around the Nile. That's when he placed the fleshbud, if you remember."

"Yes, I remember. He didn't convince you, so he had to implant you such a thing. Everything is so surreal..."
"And we are in the middle of this surreality. But it is how it is."

We were in a pleasant silence for a while before Kakyoin spoke up again.
"DIO talked to me, face to face, and his presence was so frighting to me back then, I was unable to move. I remember we were in his kind of chamber and he came very close to me."

"Wait, Kakyoin, do you want to tell me he did something more to you?"
I asked him in worry as I lifted my upper body up.
"It didn't get to anything, luckily. But he definitely came close to me, not only to place the fleshbud but also to try to convince me. But this time, I won't be paralysed. I'll give my all to fight that bastard."

I smiled to myself helplessly as I replied quietly.
"Yes, definitely. I will not expect an easy opponent in him then."

"But, (Y/N), when fighting him, we might face some casualties."
"What do you mean?"
"In case I will die..."
"Hush! You won't die! We have the others, we are super strong together. DIO might not be an easy opponent, but with all of our Stands combined, he will go down. So don't you dare think about anything else that us all returning to a healthy Mrs.Kujo and have a great feast all together."

Kakyoin giggled and turned his face away from me, into the direction of the window. Yes, even if he didn't see.

"Still, even if I should die, those days were the best days in my entire life."

"Why is that that those days were the best? I think they were kind of exhausting, but somewhat also fun. But I think I had better days for sure."
"Well, since I was a kid, I always had Hierophant Green. And that made me feel different from other kids, made me be more introverted. And thus, I didn't have many friends, you know. I was always alone, only Hierophant was there."

"Noriaki... I didn't know. I'm sorry. I understand why now. Thank you for telling me. I think I'm not only talking for myself, but you're not alone anymore, I'm there, we are friends now. Especially after all those crazy things we went through."
"Thank you, (Y/N). I really appreciate that. You really have a beautiful name, by the way."

"Thank you. You're flattering me while it's actually time to sleep. So, lie down and let's drift off to sleep, for at least a few hours more. Two or three."
"Understood, (Y/N). Rest well."
"Rest well."

I smiled to myself as both of us lied back down in bed.

From then on, the days flew by and almost two weeks later, Dr. Doyle and Dr. Hamish gave us great news.

"It's fine to take off your bandages once and for all, Kakyoin."
"Yaaay, Noriaki, let's go!"

It was around the 15th of January already, and time to meet up with the Stardust Crusaders, as Kakyoin and I named our group during our absence.

I was already feeling better since around a week, so I was ready to go, but everyone insisted on me staying with Kakyoin, and eventually, I did too.

"(Y/N), do you maybe want to take them off?"
"Oh, yes. Thank you."

The doctors stepped back and I walked up to Kakyoin who was already smiling.

I took the scissors from the doctors, cutting some of the bandages on the side before slowly going around in circles around his head, exposing more and more of the morning sun to Kakyoin.

I put the bandages down on the bed, looking at his skin. He had two scars exactly looking like his wound back then, but they seem pretty good and healed up regardless.

"Ready to open your eyes?"
I asked him before he nodded.

He opened his eyes after such a long time of keeping them closed, exposing his sparkly violet eyes.

"Finally!"
I exclaimed as I hugged him tightly, feeling his gentle arms around me.
"I can see, finally!"

The doctors laughed before I heard a photo camera go off.

I turned around to see them get the picture out of the polaroid camera.

"You probably want some memories for your journal, right?"
Dr. Hamish asked rhetorically, showing the picture to us.

I giggled a little before taking it from them.

"Well, immediately after opening your eyes. A great memory caught."
"It's great. Thank you, Dr. Doyle and Dr. Hamish."

"So, we can change to our normal clothes and join the others today already, right?"
I asked them as I passed the picture down to Kakyoin.
"Yes, actually, we prepared a flight to Cairo for you, so you can immediately meet up with the others this afternoon. Make sure to eat breakfast, lunch and get ready by then."

"Perfect. Thank you lots again."
Kakyoin thanked them as I smiled and nodded into their direction.

"We will leave you to yourselves now. We will come to you at 2pm to pick you up."
