To say that Shuichi was not the smartest person in the world would be an understatement, but he wasn't one of the dumbest in the world either, so when he started getting stomach cramps he tried to figure out what could be causing them. Unfortunately there were a few possible factors; his over-consumption of sweets, his frantic work schedule, the late nights with Yuki, or that sea-food he ate the day before, just to name a few. However, Shuichi didn't think it was any of those, in fact, he was sure it was not any of those. You see Shuichi always had a…sixth sense…..for lack of better term. No, he didn't see dead people, or talk to animals, or even, heaven forbid, read minds. His sixth sense told him when something was wrong, like when his sister and he went to climb trees one Saturday morning, he wouldn't climb the tree because something told him not to…..and, wouldn't you know it, 5 minutes later his sister(1) fell out of the tree when the branch she was sitting on broke. Just stuff like that, nothing big and most of the time completely harmless, but it still told him that the stomach cramps most certainly weren't because of bad shellfish. Ok, Shuichi thought to himself if they don't go away in a few days, I'll go to the doctor, seems fair, to give it time to go away….

Three days later Shuichi's stomach pains didn't get better….In fact they were getting progressively worse, and Shuichi couldn't take it anymore. What else was there to do besides asking Hiro to take him to the doctor? So, by the end of the workday at the studio, Shuichi looked over at his best friend.

"Mu Hiro I think I'm sick…." Shuichi whined pitifully

"That's too bad Shu-kun, but what am I gonna do about it?" Hiro said with out looking up from putting his guitar away.

"Can you take me to the doctor's today…..since we're getting let out early….." Shuichi pleaded to the guitarist.

"Why can't Yuki take you? After all, it's only about four. You can go home and get him to take you, after all isn't that what boyfriends are for?" Hiro said absent-mindedly.

"Well….I would but…..His latest deadline is coming up and he's getting really cranky…." The vocalist complained while staring up at the taller male with puppy-dog eyes.

"Fine…. Let's go to the doctor's then, Shu-kun…." Hiro gave in to the shorter singer. Shuichi grabbed Hiro's arm and they walked down to the garage, got in to Hiro's car, and drove off to the doctor's.

At Dr. Suzuki Ichiro's office

"Well Shindo-san…We'll have to run some tests so I'm going to need a blood sample and a urine sample." The kind-faced doctor hands the pink haired boy a cup with a smile, "The restroom is over there," points to a door that is cattycorner to the medical counter "while you're in there, the nurse will be sent for to do your blood-draw. Then I'll be back shortly after with some questions." the peppered hair doctor said while standing up and picking up his clipboard.

"What kind of questions?" the sick singer asked apprehensively

"Just a few standard questions so we can eliminate the unrealistic possibilities so you can get the results sooner about what is making you sick." Dr. Suzuki stated soothingly, as he walked out the door.

"Ok Shu-chan go do your business in the cup so we can get home faster." Hiro said, leaning back in the hospital chair that had been created to be uncomfortable. The genki singer dashed into the bathroom and came out in a record time of 40 seconds, panting like a mad man, with gusts blowing out of his nostrils.

" This just goes up on the counter right?" Shuichi asked rhetorically while placing the cup on the counter, just a handsome, American man with piercings all over his face(2) and plenty of tattoos, and Shuichi was he saw a piercings on the man's neck, walked in carrying a steel tray that had on it syringes, gloves, cotton balls, band-aids, and a few empty vials, and under the tray was Shuichi's file.

"Hello Shindo-san" the nurse started, "My name is Johnny(3), and I'll be drinking…er…stealing…..ummm drawing, that's right, Drawing your blood today, so hop on the table and stay there because," he looked around "I seemed to have forgotten the tourniquet to put around your arm…..Be right back……and don't try to escape, we've got this whole place guarded." Johnny said playfully as he walked out the door. Hiro and Shuichi looked at each other and started laughing.

"Well, that's an experience all in it's self…"Shuichi trailed off into a giggle.

"Looking at him makes me want to get a piercing….How do you think I would look with a lip ring?" Hiro said, reaching in to his lungs to get the last bit of air.

"I'll make you a deal if you get a lip ring. I'll get a tongue ring." Shuichi said while holding out his hand mockingly. Hiro grabbed the hand and shook it side to side. As he let go of his friend's hand Johnny walked back in.

"Ok Shindo-san, hand over your elbow." Shuichi gave him the inside of his arm and it got alcohol rubbed on and the tourniquet rapped tightly around it, then Johnny found a vein while Hiro was moving behind the shorter man. Johnny looked up and stated, "Let me guess, this one doesn't like needles very much right." and at Hiro's nod gave a nod of acceptance. "Don't worry; it won't hurt at all...it's all in your head." Johnny said as he changed gloves, "and here we go" as the needle went in to the vein. "You have very nice veins Shindo-san. You would make a great heroin addict."(4) Johnny stated as he slowly filled up the first vial with purplish blue blood. "There's one down, now let's get one for your doctor, shall we?" He looked mischievously up at the vocalist of Bad Luck for a second before looking back down to his work. Johnny picked up a cotton ball and put it where the needle met his skin and gently applied pressure and he slowly slid the needle out, then he folded up Shuichi's arm to hold the cotton ball in place as he picked up some band-aids. "Which one will it be Shindo-san: Barbie, Spiderman, or a color of crayon?" as he shorted through the band-aids. (5)

"Ummmm…..the Crayon, I guess…" Shuichi looked uncertain.

"Well the colors of crayons we have today are white, red, black, and purple." Images of Sakuma Ryuichi randomly flooded into his head, for some strange reason.

"I Guess the…..Red." Shuichi said after a few seconds of consideration, and with that, Johnny took out the red one and put it quickly over where the cotton ball had been. Johnny stood up and bowed.

"It was a pleasure taking your blood Shindo-san, and might I say I was impressed that you didn't scream." Johnny joked while walking out the door with the blood and the urine. About a minute after the nurse left, Dr. Suzuki came back in.

"Your blood had been drawn correct?" Nods from the two friends came in response. "Then its time for a round of Q and A, Most are routine questions and they may be dumb or unsettling, but please answer them honestly. "Okay?" getting a nod from Shuichi, he begins. "Name?"

"Shindou Shuichi."

"Gender?"

"Male."

"Age?"

"22."

"Birthday?"

"April 16."

"Blood Type?"

"A."

"Are you a virgin?"

"No."

"How many sexual partners have you had?"

"5, but only one consensually."

"Really, are you in therapy?"

"Not anymore, but I was."

"Are you currently in a relationship?"

"Yes."

"How long?"

"Going on to 5 years."

"Have you both been faithful?"

"Yes, absolutely."(6)

"How many times a week do you have intercourse of any kind?"

"Well…..about…..8 or 9 times…If our schedules work out."

"And your partner is a woman?"

"Nope. He's all man."

clears throat " How old is your partner?"

"Yuki is 25."

"Hmmm, Do you have or have you ever had an STI?"

"Not that I know of."

"Have you been checked before?"

"Yep."

"How long ago?"

"2 years….maybe."

"Ok two more questions. Along with the stomach pains have you experienced any difficulty

or burning when you go to the toilet?"

"Nope."

"Has your sex life decreased in any way in the last month?"

"Yeah."

"Do you know the cause?"

"Well, yeah. Yuki's dead line on his book is coming up….so He is spending more time

typing and editing then he usually does."

"Ok Shindo -san, the test should be back in about a week and I'll give you a pain med for the stomach cramps….It's very mild but you can take aspirin instead of this, But if the cramps get worse then you can down these. Ok?"

"Ok, arigatou Suzuki-sensei." Shuichi stood up and bowed while Hiro got up with the coats.

"douitashimashite, Shindo-san" and he opened the door and the two men walked

out and back out to the car.

(1) For those people who haven't seen the manga or the OVA, Shuichi has a sister, her name is Maiko and she is younger than Shuichi…and Hiroshi has an older brother…….if you have only seen the anime READ THE MANGA!

(2) facial piercings are not accepted socially in Japan, and are thought to be unpractical.

(3)I don't own Johnny. The real Johnny is a piercer at Mothership tattoo and piercings in Pismo beach, California….. I only get pierced by Johnny……I love Jeanie too

(4) Someone said this to me…..I'm so scared of needles…..but it's still a great line

(5)The blood-drawing scene gave one of my needle-fearing friends the heebie-jeebies

(6) since it confused my Beta I'll explain...I am counting from the time Yuki ran off to NY...like Yuki broke up with Shuichi when he left.. then they got back together, and in the manga I don't recall Yuki running to NY so it goes from the time Yuki wrote Shuichi the song. Pick whichever one you like more, its not that important in the story when the broke up.
