~Stay with me~ (ShinyaXAkane)

~Chapter 11~

{Akane's POV}
There was a warm fuzziness that seemed to spread through my body, coursing through my veins. My body is light like I have been running for so long and my body turned to jello. There was a slight pinching on my stomach like I was being tickled a little too roughly. Was it worth it to open my eyes? Did I really want to know where I was? Was being with Shinya all a dream?
It was now or never. I fluttered my eyes open to the dim fluorescent lights that shone directly above my eyes. I am laying flat on a very soft mattress, my head propped up slightly with a pillow.
It's a small room with a few more rows of beds along with curtains separating those beds, no one else was in the dim lit room so all the curtains were back exposing the beds.
The wall leading to the hallway was made mostly of glass windows, and at those windows stood a tall figure, his face was shadowed by the dark hallway.
I laid still on the bed keeping my breathing even and I closed my eyes.
The door opened and clicked shut. There was a creek of a near bedside chair and a cold hand grazed my cheek, tracing my jaw line. The hand slid down onto my arm and clutched my hand. His head rested on the edge of the bed his hair fluffy and soft. Then it hit me.
This person was Shinya.
I opened my eyes to lock in his gaze. His gray-blue eyes seemed to lock onto mine. "Hey" he said in his silky voice. "Hey" I croaked out, which startled me. "How are you feeling?" He asked. "Are you in any pain?". "N-no, not at all" I responded. He smiled and burrowed his head into the bed. "That's good"
"You've been asleep for a while. I've been at your side for hours. The cafeteria was about to close so I went and got some grub, and now we are here. I'm really,really glad you're awake. It's been all sorts of crazy and I need a familiar face. I've been alone way to long" he said in a very soft voice.
"Well I'm here now, and I don't plan on leaving your side" I said more confidently. "Mhm" he sighed in a very pleasant hum. "Shinya where are we?" I said in a little bit stressed tone. "Oh, Gino decide to join the rebellion secretly and so I when I called him for help he sent them. We are at there base out of the city in the middle of nowhere... We are safe so let's just rest up and we can deal with a problems later" he said tightening his grip on my hand. He scooched closer to the bed with his chair and repositioned his head so it bumped up against my side I took my free hand and ran my hand through his glossy black hair. He hummed and started to breathe heavily. He was asleep.
Now was my chance, I finally got to play with his hair, a big fluff ball that went in all directions.
I twirled his hair in between my fingers, flipped it one way and tried in a failed attempt to flatten his naturally fluffy hair.
After playing with his hair until I was content I started to trace his face, his sharp features that seemed to be absolutely perfect made me smile as I came to a stop resting my hand on his cheek.
He was warm.
Hours passed I dosed off to sleep.
There was a light tugging on my short hair. I opened my eyes to see Shinya playing with my hair. I looked at him.
"What?" He said snickering. "It's my turn to play with your hair, it's only fair" he said stroking my hair like I was a dog. "Woof" I said playing around. He laughed. It was a genuine laugh, one I had never heard from him. It made me happy when he was happy.
He stared to braid small short lengths of my hair, twisting chunks and folding pieces up and to the other side of my head.
After a while Shinya left to go get breakfast so I was all alone in the dim room. Some male nurses came and checked up on me and said I would be able to move around in a few days. Shinya brought some breakfast for me and we are in an awkward silence.
The breakfast consisted of eggs and toast with a glass of orange juice. My stomach hurt and I didn't want to eat anything that could possibly make it worse.
"Akane you have to eat. It's been days since you've last eaten." he said in a whine. "I just don't feel good. I have no appetite." I said flipping the covers over my head. He took a bite of his toast and set down his plate. His hand was on my back as he started rubbing it, he was trying to comfort me.
I flipped the covers of my head and looked at him, he looked at me. He smelled like cigarettes which sounded amazing right now. But besides that he smelled of succulent cologne. "I will try and eat something if you let me smoke..." I said sheepishly. "... wait what? When did you start smoking? You were always telling me that they would kill me one day!" He said in an aggravated tone." Heh... hm. Well about that...heh" I cleared my throat "Life has been extremely stressful and I needed something to take off the edge, and it may or may not have also been because they reminded me of you.." I said whispering out the end. My cheeks felt hot as I looked away from his blue steel gaze. "See this is one more of the reasons why I should have taken you with me, I'm just causing everyone even more trouble, maybe I should have stayed here..." he said falling back in his chair resting his head on the head rest staring at the ceiling. "Shinya you know if you stayed you would have been blown to bits by Sybil and I would never be able to function, sent to some insane asylum where I was pumped full of meds and locked in a closet" I said with somberness, looking down on the food that sat on the over hanging table that went above my legs. Missing his hand on my back.
He flipped his head down forcing his sharp jawline into his collarbone. He just sat there and looked at me. Realizing all I was wearing was a hospital gown and underwear I pulled the blanket up higher and slumped further into the bed. Feeling all sorts of vulnerability.
He stood up and took a deep breath in, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a pack of cigarettes. He set it on the table and looked back at me. " Now eat up" he said smiling. He pushed the chair closer to the bed and sat down laying his head by my feet. "And Akane there's no reason to feel uncomfortable around me, I won't do anything you don't want me to" he said muffled by the sheets. I could feel my face get hot as I took a bite of toast. Letting it sit and took a sip of orange juice. After eating I did feel better, glad that Shinya forced me to eat.
I pulled a cigarette out of the pack and asked him for the lighter. "You can't smoke inside its against rules. Especially since we are in the medical wing. We are going to have to go to outside" he said taking the cigarette from me. He left for a wheelchair with out a word.
He came into the room with a flattened wheelchair and nurse. Shinya popped open the wheelchair and wheeled it over to the bedside. The nurse moved my IV drip bag to a pole that stuck out a little upward on one side. Shinya flipped off the covers, the cool air in the room stinging my bare legs. I had never felt so naked around the one person I loved or anyone for that fact. He noticed my uncomfortableness and as gently as he could moved me into the wheelchair. He stripped off his jacket and gave it to me. "Cover up its a little cold in here"
He started pushing me out the door, the nurse followed but took a turn and left us alone. He pushed me through double doors and we were in a huge room full of people working on computers and running back and forth from place to place. He pushed me down the ramp and all I could get out was "woah" before he swung around backwards and pushed open another set of doors, he quickly pulled me through and flipped me back around. We were in a narrow hallway that must have been the entrance and exit to the base. At the end of the hallway was some kind of security but they just unbolted the doors and Shinya pushed me through into the bright lit world. The wind gushed as he pushed me a little bit further toward the tree covered side walk where he stopped at a bench. He pulled me up next to the bench and sat down. " I've only been out here once to smoke, of course I've been spending all my time with you since you woke up so..." he said as he pulled out the pack of cigarettes and a lighter. He handed me a lit one and he lit his. It was so weird to be smoking with Shinya instead of yelling at him to stop it. " I can't wait to finally be able to move around again, so we can move on with life " I said sighing. "I can't wait either, it bothers me to see you all broken and frail. For some brave little girl I met those years ago... you don't look like your self when you're hurt... so let's try and stay healthy.." he said smiling. I wanted so bad to sit on the bench with him and curl up on to his chest and sleep. I took in a drag of my cigarette, Shinya handed me an ash tray that must have already been out here and I tapped the ash of my cigarette. He did so as well and this pattern happened until we finished. I pulled up Shinya's jacket around my arms. "Are you getting cold?" He asked. "A little but I like it out here" I said shivering which made up his mind."Lets go back inside, we can come back out tomorrow." he said in a light hushed voice. "O-okay f-ine". He rubbed my arms before he pushed the wheelchair back into the base. He carted me through a different way, through a hallway, he used a key card to unlock a door to a room. It was some kind of living corders.
"This is our room" he said. Wait ours? like shared? There was a bunk bed and a desk in the large room. "Even though you have a little longer in the hospital wing I though I would show you" he said looking at me". I smiled "this will be amazing" I said in a whisper. He smiled."Well lets get you back to the hospital wing before the doctors get mad..." he said turning off the lights and shutting the door.
Once we got back to my hospital bed Shinya moved the IV bag back and picked me up out of the chair and into the bed. I scooted to the right of the bed and patted the large gap on the bed on my right signaling for him to join me. "It's not fair for you to be sleeping hunched over my bed, just get over here" I said trying my hardest to not freak out over what I was doing,"I'm still cold and it would be awesome if you would come war-" before I could finish Shinya had taken his shoes off and joined me in bed. He was wearing a tight v- neck tee and blue jeans. He hugged me trying to avoid the tubes that strung from my left hand. I hugged him back and smiled.

{Shinya's POV}
Here I lay in bed with the girl I love. Her body pressed against mine. She had burrowed her way into a position where her head was pressed against my chest and she was curled up her legs over mine. Her light breathing turned to a deep shallow breathing. She was asleep. She hum snored in her sleep which I found adorable. I curled up too and we where both asleep.

{Akane's POV}
When I woke up Shinya was gone and his side of the bed was made. He wasn't in the room either. "Shinya?!?" I said in a frantic hope for a response. But there wasn't one. I had no clue what time it was so I sat in the bed for a little while longer. No one was around. I wanted to be with him. I flipped of the covers and swung my legs off the bed. "Shinya? Hello?". I slid off the bed planting both my bare feet on the cold tile floor. The IV bag tugged tight, pulling on the needle in my hand. A surge pain went through my arm. I looked down at my IV. It had ripped out of my skin and left a small thin line of blood that tiered down a drop of blood that ran down my arm. I wiped it off with my gown and ripped the tape off my hand. I slid the rest of the way of the bed finally holding my own weight. My insides felt jellowy and my legs started to give out from underneath me. I slowly drudged into the door flipped it open and out the door.
I felt like a zombie, waddling down an empty hallway. I took a right, going the way Shinya had the previous day and came to the large operation. People checking in on computers and some looking at the world map. None of them noticed me. I walked past them with out a care that my back and underwear were showing. My sides burned. Like I just finished running 3 miles without taking a break. But I had done no exercise. I must have taken a wrong turn because I was down another hallway with doors on both sides. I had to stop. I sat down against the wall. The cold ground was nice on my over worked body. My eyes drooped closed.
