Heaven Can Wait

Chapter 7

Disclaimer: I don't own the series Hana Kimi, or any of the characters. All ownership goes to those who do own it. The plot comes from inspiration from FT Island's music video "Heaven: Part 2". I also don't own that band, or the song…or that video. This is just a humble interpretation on my part of throwing the characters from Hana Kimi into the situation in the music video.

"I can do this…I can do this…I can DO THIS!"

Nakatsu stood outside the back door Sano had snuck in through while he had taken Yuujiro to the front of the building to distract the evil villain who had kidnapped their sweet, innocent Mizuki. The soccer playing teenager was standing there with Yuujiro at his side, whimpering to get inside. "Shoosh" Nakatsu said to the golden retriever who, at his voice, instantly dropped his ears and whined again before laying down. Nakatsu then looked at the door again and pet the dog before saying, "I know how you feel…"

With a sigh, Nakatsu readied himself, both mentally and physically, to enter the building. Before he could rush in and be Mizuki's savior, however, he saw a short figure rush out of the door he was about to rush into, running right past him. Nakatsu's eyes widened and his face broke into a smile as he rushed behind Mizuki and wrapped his arms around 'his' shoulders, hugging 'him' in a way that Nakatsu hoped Mizuki wouldn't think as homosexual.

Mizuki then spun around with a smile on 'his' face and started to say "San-" but then stopped before the 'o' of Sano's name as 'he' saw it wasn't Sano. Both faced dropped their happy and relieved smiles. The dropping of the smiles were a mixture of disappointment (disappointment that the hug wasn't by Sano, and disappointment that Mizuki had been hoping it was Sano) and worry about Sano still being inside with the crazy man inside. The two then heard a noice of pain and their heads instantly snapped towards the open doorway. Mizuki tried to then rush inside, but Nakatsu stopped 'him' like a good knight in wet soggy armor.

"Wait here Ashiya…" Nakatsu said with his hands on Mizuki's shoulder, then turned around and looked at the door, determination on his face. He then ran into towards the open doorway, leaving Mizuki and Yuujiro outside, not fully knowing where his roommate was. He was now rushing in to save his closest friend from the crazed, and quite frankly creepy, kidnapper.

Once Nakatsu was past the huge metal doorway, he paused a few feet in and looked around for Sano. After a couple seconds, Nakatsu's searching eyes fell on the two men against the wall. Shock spread across Nakatsu's face as he saw the crazed man pull his hand away from Sano's body and something shined in the light. Squinting his eyes, Nakatsu saw that the man was holding a knife. With this realization, the light haired soccer player's eyes widened to about three times their natural size and in desperation he looked around to find any sort of object to protect himself with. Within seconds, Nakatsu saw a small, round, pan on the ground. Without even thinking about it, Nakatsu side stepped a couple times to get to the pan and then once he was within kicking distance, the soccer player reared his leg back and kicked the pan at the crazed man. Just as Sano slumped to the ground, the pan went flying through the air and made contact with the kidnapper's head, causing the man to instantly drop to the ground. Completely knocked out.

Without worrying about his own safety and possibly falling into a trap, Nakatsu ran to Sano's side, kicked the kidnapper in the side for good measure, and then turned to Sano who was holding his side with one hand, and his leg with the other. "Come on buddy. Mizuki is waiting for you…" He then reached his arm down and pulled Sano to his feet. When Sano then flinched, Nakatsu couldn't help but flinch before wrapping Sano's arm around his shoulder and supporting his friend. It looked like Sano had been stabbed in the thigh, but he was also bleeding from his side. "Is it bad…?" Nakatsu asked.

When Sano clenched his teeth together and shook his head, Nakatsu couldn't help but smile and nod. This was good. "Okay. Lets get you to the hospital…" Sano then balled his hands into a fist and shook his head. "I'll be fine. Umeda can take care of this…" Nakatsu almost stopped Sano dead in his tracks to glare at him and tell him he NEEDED to go to the hospital…both he and Mizuki did. But Sano's expression was so serious, and so was his tone. "I hope you're sure about this Sano…" Nakatsu said quietly more to himself than actually to Sano. Sano must have picked up on that because he didn't respond.

After a slow yet deliberate limping, the two managed to make it outside of the building and to freedom. The man inside was still unconscious which meant that they were safe. Once outside, Nakatsu's eyes scanned the area and fell on Mizuki who was crouched down, sitting on her heels and petting Yuujiro. In the position that 'he' was sitting, he looked very cute, yet he could also see the fear in his eyes. 'Kawaii' Nakatsu thought to himself as he looked at the 'boy' petting the golden dog. At the sound of their approach, Mizuki's head raised and instantly 'his' face lit up. 'Super Kawaii' he thought at the expression. His eyes then went into 'Super Kawaii' mode as he could see Mizuki there, smiling wide for his safety, the light all around his face and his eyes even doing the anime twinkle. A stupid smile spread across Nakatsu's face for a second as he imagined Mizuki running over and hugging him for being the savior for the day, and then the 'super kawaii' mode disappeared and reality seemed to match his fantasy. Mizuki stood up, quickly brushed off 'his' pants and then ran over.

Mizuki, however, did not run over to him, but rather to the other side and instantly started fussing over Sano. It was then that Nakatsu realized he was still supporting their friend and was even still walking. "oh Uh…" he then allowed Sano's arm to fall off his shoulders and all three instantly dropped to their knees. "Sano! Are you okay?" Mizuki's cute voice rang through the silence. Sano then merely nodded while voicing 'Mmhm".

"Ah…what happened to Kayashima?" Nakatsu said and looked around. It looked like it was just the three of them and the dog. "I hope he's okay…" Mizuki then chimed in. Nakatsu quickly turned his head to 'him' as 'he' said that. As if on cue, there was a beeping sound and lights appeared on the trio. It wasn't until now that Nakatsu even realized it was dark outside, and even though the rain from earlier had stopped, the air was still wet and drizzling. Squinting into the light, Nakatsu saw that behind the light was a big bus and his face instantly lit up as he popped to his feet. A few seconds later, the door to the bus opened up and out ran three people. Not just any three people, but the three dorm heads. First was Nanba who ran over to Mizuki and Sano. Then came Tennoji who stood in front of the light, blocking enough to allow Nakatsu to see that Kayashima was just inside the bus, watching them. Last came 'Oscar' who ran over to Nakatsu and started fussing over him. "I'm fine Baka…the injured ones are over there" his finger then pointed over to Sano and Mizuki. His eyes then trailed over and he saw that Mizuki was still fussing over Sano. And Sano seemed to be…really enjoying it. He was even smiling, which was rare for Sano to do.

"Come on, get on the bus and we're taking you to the hospital!" Nanba said and pulled Sano to his feet. Sano and Mizuki both then protested at the same time, looked at eachother, then looked back at Nanba. All at the same time. While seeing this, Nakatsu's heart couldn't help but to tug slightly in his chest. Even though he didn't want to admit that he was 'gay', he loved Mizuki and it was sad to see 'him' and Sano together like that. A small argument then erupted between Mizuki and Nanba, with some unnecessary interjections from 'Oscar', but after a few minutes, everyone decided that they would leave it up to Umeda as to whether they needed to go to the hospital or not.

Once everyone got in the Bus, Nakatsu took the seat next to Kayashima in the front and threw his thumbs up once his roommate smiled at him. Their little adventure was over, and everyone was okay. All the while those who had been elsewhere searching, were throwing a little party near the back of the bus. Not that they deserved a little party, but Nakatsu couldn't help but turn around in his seat and watch as the dorm heads chatted in the back, Oscar throwing his cape around and Tennoji was flexing his muscles while Nanba lounged in the chair without a care in the world. Mizuki and Sano were safely in the bus now and the driver of the bus took off and sped away. As they were driving away, the police showed up and Nakatsu looked out the window as he watched police storm in. It seemed that not only did Kayashima bring the bus to the rescue, he also called the cops. Once he saw the man being dragged out by the police officers, Nakatsu smiled over at Kayashima and patted him on the back.

All was okay again, and with a wide smile still spread across his face, Nakatsu turned to the seat one back and on the other side from him. Sano and Mizuki were in that seat and at first Nakatsu was going to talk to them, until he saw Mizuki's feet curled up to his chest and he was resting nestled against Sano. Both were asleep and they looked so sweet together. Their sweetness caused Nakatsu's heart to completely drop and he could feel his entire being feel sick.

"What's this depressingly jealous Aura coming from you, Nakatsu?"

"Oh…Uh…Nothing" Nakatsu turned around and nudged Kayashima before pulling his knees up and pressed them against the back of the seat in front of him. He couldn't allow himself to show his sadness for not being able to be with Mizuki, so he closed his eyes and feigned sleep, only to feel more and more depressed as the moments ticked by.

'I…Love Him…'
