Trying to add more better vocabulary n' stuff ;)

On with the story!

"Misaki? Misaki!" Akihiko said urgently. Hiroki and Nowaki snapped their heads towards the sound. Akihiko was holding a now-awake Misaki's hands.

"Get your hands off me you pervert!" Misaki yelled. Akihiko could've cried for joy; the boy still had his spark. Nowaki cleared his voice, addressing Misaki.

"Takahashi-san, I see you're awake. How are you feeling?"

Misaki looked up at Nowaki, saying worriedly, "I don't really know, but I can't feel my legs!" Tears threatened to spill over Misaki's face. However, Nowaki looked relieved.

"Is that all? The painkillers can make your legs immobile for a short period of time, and you should feel them in about an hour." Misaki sighed happily. Akihiko lifted Misaki into a wheelchair after Nowaki nodded at him. Nowaki was already turning towards Hiroki to speak.

Just as Akihiko was lifting Misaki into the wheelchair, Takahiro bursts into the room, panting heavily. "Misaki! Are you alright?" Takahiro was breathing like an asthmatic. Having to fend off two hug attacks was exhausting for Misaki. Takahiro looked at Misaki sadly, taking it the web of casts that encapsulated his legs and arm. Takahiro looked at Akihiko vengefully.

"I thought you were supposed to keep him safe!" He cried. Akihiko looked from Takahiro to Misaki, his face full of pain and anger. Misaki interjected Takahiro before he could say anything else.

"Nii-chan! This was my own fault, so stop blaming Usagi-san for everything!" Misaki huffed, trying to cross his arms for effect. Sadly, the cast prevented Misaki's display of anger. Takahiro brushed Misaki off; instead he continued his speech, much to Misaki's disappointment.

"I think Misaki should come live with me. Misaki can take care of himself and Usagi normally, but he won't be able to in this condition…" Takahiro told Akihiko, almost in a pleading voice. Akihiko could see the emotions swirling around Takahiro's eyes, and felt his need to care for Misaki. It was reminiscent of when Takahiro had told him that he would take care of Misaki when their parents died.

Akihiko had a moment of indecision, but the need to be with Misaki overpowered any doubt he had before. He wasn't giving up Misaki to anybody, not even Takahiro. Akihiko wasn't ever going to let Misaki get away again.

"No." Akihiko said simply, before trying to convince Takahiro. Takahiro, however, was about to cut off Akihiko when Misaki spoke up again, fury evident in his voice.

"I'm not just a possession that can just be traded around!" Misaki yelled indignantly. After this outburst, Misaki mumbled quietly, "I'm fine with Usagi-san, if he wants me..."

"Misaki!" Akihiko cried with joy. He rushed to Misaki and kissed him with enthusiasm.

…

…

Too late. Takahiro stood in shock, his mouth hanging open. Takahiro tried to form words, but the language didn't seem to be there. Misaki was just as shocked. This was going to be bad.

"Aba.. Uhm… WHAA?" Takahiro looked about ready to faint. Akihiko's only thought was 'Run!'

Nowaki smiled gently as they left the room like madmen. Takahiro rushed after them with a wild look in his eyes. Even though he didn't like Usami-san, his lover was a nice kid. He called out,

"I'll be seeing you next week!" Nowaki said. As Nowaki was smiling and waving, Hiroki turned to him and started complaining.

"Can you believe Bakahiko?! He's sleeping with my student! That brat doesn't even like to read! Why would an author date someone who doesn't like to read?! And get this." Nowaki sighed. Hiro-san was on a roll; nothing short of a nuclear explosion would stop him now. Hiroki heaved his chest up and down before continuing. "I can't believe it's Takahiro's little brother too! If I didn't know better I'd say that brat is just a replacement!"

As fast as his anger came, it started to slowly dissipate as Hiroki fell into Nowaki's arms. The constant frown that composed Hiroki's face was substituted by one of sadness.

"But… The way Akihiko looked at him." Hiroki was so out of character that it caught Nowaki off-guard. "With such love… and caring…" Hiroki looked up at Nowaki. "I love you Nowaki!" Hiroki plunged his head into Nowaki's scrubs and Nowaki felt Hiroki's sobs rack his body.

Nowaki looked sadly down at his lover. 'It must be really hard to see the one that you loved with someone else…' This reaction of intense pain from Hiroki also made Nowaki nervous. 'Hiro-san still loves me right?' Nowaki titled Hiroki's head up to his and kissed him. Hiroki looked at Nowaki incredulously, his tears gone. Wiping his face vigorously, he glared at Nowaki.

"Don' .Anyone." He growled. "I love you." Hiroki mumbled quietly, leaving Nowaki to just stare at him, a huge smile on his face. Nowaki was loved; and he knew it.

Checkout was a breeze; Akihiko just had to smile and wave. The front desk lady called to him,

"S-sir! Y-you need to s-sign this!" She sputtered out.

"I'm not doing autographs right now, sorry!" He said, breezing by them with Misaki. Akihiko picked up the pace and wheeled his lover out to the car. Takahiro was closely following them, eyes burning. Misaki was in shock, but was going along with Akihiko. After all, he didn't have much choice...

"Oh." They both said in unison. There was no way Misaki could fit in that car. Akihiko ruffled his already disheveled hair in annoyance. Misaki wiggled uncomfortably in his seat, thinking sullenly, 'I'm being such a burden... First I get run over and then I can't even fit in a car!' Misaki inspected the car closely with Akihiko, trying to discern how he could fit.

"What's on the wheels?" Misaki asked curiously. Akihiko's car was usually the only clean thing he owned... Akihiko looked suddenly uncomfortable. 'It must be that Takahiro is chasing us..' Misaki was pretty uncomfortable too.

"Well, erm... You see..." Akihiko looked closer, dreading telling Misaki it was his own blood. Jumping up, he said enthusiastically, "It's a piece of paper! That's what it is!" He snatched the pice of paper of the wheel and it was sticky with Misaki's blood.

"What is it, Usagi-san?" Misaki was trying to get a better look, craning over Akihiko's side. Akihiko turned around, smiling at Misaki. Takahiro, however, was approaching fast. He was fuming, and Akihiko could almost see steam where the man walked.

"Let's just take the train!" Akihiko said happily. Misaki looked suspiciously at his lover; that smile was the one he reserved for meetings and parties. In other words, it was totally fake. Sighing, Misaki decided to go along with Akihiko's little farce until they got home, or, at least until Takahiro wasn't approaching him.
_

While they were on the train, they sat in an uncomfortable silence. They had lost Takahiro, for now, but Misaki thought that running wasn't such a great idea. Akihiko's mind was racing; what he found on that paper couldn't be true. On the bloodstained paper, a messy scrawl wrote, "Was this an accident? Call XXX-XXX-XXXX to find out." He has no idea what to make of the paper. Takahiro was completely out of his mind now; he would deal with that later.

Was it an accident? Either way, the responsible party was going to be punished.

How was it? Finally some more insight into Misaki's 'accident'! R&R!

Let me know if you guys want a small chapter a day or one big chapter every other day :)

I know the chapter's a little short; I've got some huge projects coming up that are very important.

Until next time!

AwkwardOtaku16: Gotcha! No more a/n's! I have trouble explaining some things but I'll try my very best! Please keep writing your fic it's amazing! Hopefully my story can be as good as yours someday :)

xMiharux3: I'm glad you liked 'Niisaki'! I thought it was really cute 3

More cliffhangers for you 3 I'll probably slow down with the uploading though :/ I'm going back to school next week ;-;

NamiTsukino: I'm sorry to make you cry! That means it's a good story tho ;)

I hope to make you cry again… In a good way!

Vixou:

1st- I'm glad that I have a style! I usually just write whatever I think they would say; I'm glad it seems IC. I have definitely tried to improve with details, it something I really struggle with. Probably years of having 1 hour to write a 5 page essay (ಥ﹏ಥ)

2nd- Yay! I improved! I permanently have a tab up for now lol. From others fanfictions I've read, vocabulary is huge. I've read stories with zero plot but good vocabulary and I like them better than plot with no vocab. Vocabulary is again, another struggle of mine. I hope you find that this chapter is more colorful! However, I think that my style leans toward a more simplistic approach so not every word will be so exotic. This is my first time writing tension/angst in general, so by the end I'm sure I'll improve :) Practice makesperect! I'm glad I can get someone picky to like my fic :D I'll keep up the good work!

Judy- (Your name wont show up for some reason?): I'm thinking the same thing o.o We'll see what happens to Misaki and Akihiko! I'll try and end the story well for you :D

MindVScape: Feisty. I like it :3 The next chapter is up right on time :)
