Hikaru woke up, feeling extremely weak and disoriented. She had a very bad headache and felt a little dizzy. She opened her eyes, looking at a white ceiling. She was resting in a bed and she had no clue why. It seemed as if she was in the hospital? Her brain still hadnt been able to remember how she got here, when someone called her name.

Hikaru!

It was Madoka, who was sitting on a chair, beside her bed. Hikaru turned her head and saw her immediately. The brown-haired looked very relieved and her voice was trembling, as if she wanted to cry. In fact her eyes looked teary.

Im so glad, you are finally awake! She muttered and took Hikaru´s hand, pressing it gently.

Hikaru frowned, feeling a little weird about this situation. How did she get here? And why was Madoka crying?

Then suddenly it was all there again. Doji- her abduction - the warehouse- the creepy guy and his friends- this strange feeling in her chest- Ryuga- Oh god RYUGA! Hikaru´s eyes widened in shock. Even though she was terribly afraid to ask about it, she still had to... she sat up, her headache turned even worse and she felt shaky inside.

R-ryuga...what happened to him? She whispered, her throat was terribly dry. She hadnt used her voice for a while and even talking was hard for her. Her voice only came out in a rasping sound, but Madoka understood what she said.

Its alright! She smiled weakly, wiping her tears away. She tightened her hand around Hikaru´s hand.

He survived! Even though he had been shot, the bullets didnt hit his inner organs, they were very close though. The doctors said, that he had been very very lucky! If the bullets had hit his inner organs there would have been no chance for him! But you dont have to worry, that didnt happen! He had been in intensive care since two days now and the doctors said they are very optimistic about his recovery.

Two days? She had been here since two days?

They removed the bullets and now he has to stay at the hospital again. Madoka finsihed her report.

Somehow Hikaru had her doubts about what Madoka told her. She remembered how he looked like, when she saw him the last time. He had lost so much blood! He really looked as if he...Hikaru shuddered at the very thought. She was afraid, that Madoka wasnt telling her the truth...but she was her friend! She wouldnt lie to her about something so important, right?

Madoka, please tell me the truth..., she begged her weakly. Hikaru couldnt stand the thought, that they were only trying to keep her calm.

Madoka looked puzzled.

I just did! She responded with a worried voice.

He really survived? She asked, her voice shaking. She had to be 100% sure of that. Maybe she was only dreaming that? Well her headache felt real...

Please dont lie to me!

Why would I lie to you?

I-I... dont know...maybe because the doctors told you to do so? Maybe they are afraid of my reaction or my health or whatever... and you only want to tell me the truth after I recover? Hikaru knew that she was acting crazy, but she still had to be sure!

I wouldnt do that! Madoka said with a serious face. I wouldnt lie to you about such things! You can trust me! If you want to, you can see him later with your own eyes! He did survive! I know, that is hard to believe for you, since you saw him the last time in this very bad condition, but it has been two days since then! He is doing better now!

Hikaru´s doubts started to fade. Madoka sure wouldnt suggest that, if she had not told her the truth! Hikaru sighed in relief. She really thought that he... oh god,...Ive never felt so relieved in my hole life! Tears started to run down her face. She was just so relieved and happy. Ryuga saved her. He saved her life and Hikaru wouldnt have endured the thought, that he died, because of her...because he had rescued her...she couldnt believe that he acutally came only because of her...

Madoka saw, that Hikaru believed her now. She took her in her arms, hugging her, letting her weep on her shoulder. Since she knew how hard the past days must have been for her. She needed her friends right now. Madoka hugged her friend, giving her support.

After a while Hikaru was able to stop her tears. She had been so relieved, when she heard that Ryuga was okay, that she just couldnt hold back her tears any more. Madoka brought her some water. Hikaru hadnt eaten since days. She had received artifical nutrition, what felt kind of terrible. So she was extremly happy, when she was able to drink in a normal way again. It felt so much better!

Are you feeling better now? Madoka asked her friend.

Yeah...Hikaru responded. She was still to weak to get up from the bed though. Even though she wanted to see Ryuga sooooo badly!

We all were so worried about you! Madoka told her. When Ginga´s dad told us, that you had been kidnapped by Doji and everything. It was such a shock! Even more the fact shocked us, that Ryuga wasnt dead, as we all thought!, she admitted. We had no clue about all of this...that you were in contact with Ryuga and visiting him at the hospital!

Im sorry, Hikaru murmured embarrassed. She didnt mean to lie to her friends. I had to promise not to tell anyone about this. Only a few members of the WBBA knew about this...

Im not blaming you, Madoka assured, smiling. I was only pretty much upset with Ginga´s dad! He even kept that from his own son! He only told you about this...we all were so surprised! Since you and and Ryuga...well...I didnt think that you both possibly could have such a relationship, because you used to hate him so much... because of the events at Battle blader...Madoka said, trying to stay polite. She was just so curious! She wanted to ask Hikaru so many things, but tried to hold back, knowing her friend still had to recover. They would have time for that later.

Which kind of relationship are you talking about? Hikaru thought, blushing. She realized, that every time Madoka only mentioned his name her heart skipped a beat. She was feeling so totally different about him now. Her feelings were a mess, not in a bad way though, as they used to. Oh dear...what are these feelings?Hikaru never felt these kind of feelings towards a boy before...

I-I...well...Hikaru had no clue, how to explain herself.

Right in this moment her room door was opened and all her friends came in: Ginga, Yuu, Kenta, Benkei, Kyoya, Tsubasa and other people, who worked with Hikaru at the WBBA.

Oh, finally she is awake! Ginga said, relieved, when he saw Hikaru.

Really? Yuu cried with joy. Hikaru!

We were so worried about you!

Hikaru! Hikaru!

Hikaruuuuuu!

A total chaos broke out in her rooms, when they realized, that Hikaru was awake. Everyone wanted to see her and hug her. Hikaru felt a little overwhelmed about this sudden fuss - of course she was happy to see her friends again, who had been so worried about her, but they were a little too overexcited. Everyone was talking, wanting to speak to her. The only one who didn't behave like that was Kyoya, who acted more like an adult and Madoka, since she had already talked to her friend before. Kenta was extremely happy and Hikaru was glad, that he wasn't mad with her, for not telling him about Ryuga before. In the end they were so loud, that a nurse came and threw them out, since the other patients needed rest, just like Hikaru. She said, that they could return tomorrow, but only if they learned how to behave at the hospital. To tell the truth Hikaru was a little relieved about that, even though she was sorry for her friends. She knew that they meant it in a good way, but her rips felt a little sore after all this hugging. Especially Benkei´s hug had been a little too strong.

Just right after her friends went away and Hikaru thought about going to see Ryuga, Mr. Hagane and some police men entered her room.

The director smiled gently. Its good to see you awake!, he said.

I'm sorry... so terribly sorry... I didn't realize the danger, I have put you in before and when I did it was nearly too late!

Its okay... Hikaru said. She saw how much the director had been blaming himself. She knew that her friends sure gave him a hard time too. It looked as if he hadn't slept the past few days, since his eyes were all red, due to lack of sleep.

The director smiled relieved, seeing that Hikaru wasn't angry with him.

It wasn't his fault after all. Hikaru knew that he cared about her and wouldn't have given her this task, if he knew how dangerous things would turn out. But in the end, it all went well, so there was no one to blame...

I wont bother you long, he promised. But these guys wanted to ask you some questions. Even though I told them, that you need rest!

We wont take long, one of the police man said.

That is alright! Hikaru said, even though she wasn't really looking forward into it.

We only want to know, if you remember how you got kidnapped...? he asked

Hikaru did. She explained to them how she got drugged and everything. She told them about everything she went through at the warehouse. The director paled, when he heard how bad she had been treated. It wasn't easy for Hikaru to talk about these things...when she finally finished her report, the police man seemed pleased. She gave him all the information he needed. Then she remembered some important questions, she wanted to ask them as well.

Doji and his henchmen...they wont escape, right?, she asked anxiously. She would never feel safe if she knew that Jack or this creepy guy were at large.

No, they wont, he assured to me. You don't have to worry about them again. They are under arrest!

But how did you find us?, she asked. Ryuga must have contacted them in a way, even though Doji had been so sure, that he didn't. He said something about having him under watch and taking his phone from him, she remembered that clearly.

Well...that actually was kind of weird. It seems as if Doji forbid Ryuga to contact anyone and he seemed to be pretty sure, that he would find out if he did.

Thats because of this strange hacking system the Dark Nebula has. Its called Mercy, the director said.

Yeah, but we received a signal, from this mobile phone. It was what led us to the warehouse...

Eh? But how did he do that?

Ryuga installed a tracker inside the phone. He knew, that Doji was controlling his actions the whole time before their meeting. But Doji didn't think that Ryuga would find a way of contacting us, after he met them. The tracker had been installed so, that it only started sending us the signal after a certain time. We received this signal for the first time about 11.30 pm...

But Doji took his phone away?

Yeah, but that was only to confuse Doji...so that he thought Ryuga didn't have another plan...the tracker inside the phone send the signal, despite the fact that Doji took it away. That is because it had been set on a certain time...it didn't matter if Doji or Ryuga were carrying the phone. Ryuga showed Doji the phone on purpose, so that Doji thought, that he was in control of the situation.

Hikaru was amazed.

I didn't know, that Ryuga is capable of doing such things...like installing this tracker and setting it on time...

I didn't either...the director grinned at her. His plan was absolutely brilliant and it totally worked out, the way he planned. Even if I am a bit jealous of him, but I have to admit that he has style, this guy...

oOo

Right after Mr. Hagane and the police men went away, Nancy came to check on Hikaru. Hikaru was starting to get tired about all these visits. She knew that Nancy was only doing her job and that she had been only worried about her, but Hikaru wanted to have some time for herself too. She wanted to leave her room and go see Ryuga. But Nancy told her, that it was still to early for her to leave the bed. She told her, that if she rested well this night, she would probably be fit enough to leave the bed tomorrow. As if Hikaru was going to wait so long... Why was that so hard to see him, even though they were at the same hospital? Why didn't anyone understand her? She had to see him!

Hikaru was getting desperate. She talked calmly with Nancy and was very relieved when she finally went away. She waited for some moments, hoping that she left the floor. It was already dark outside. Hikaru had spent the hole day in the hospital, without seeing Ryuga once, since all these people had been in her room the hole time. She felt kind of envious of Kenta for talking with Ryuga before she did.

Oh boy, I'm so childish, she thought annoyed with herself. Kenta had every right to see Ryuga! After all he had been his companion and friend. He had suffered so much, because he thought that Ryuga had died in the battle with Rago. Suddenly Hikaru asked herself, why she was so crazy about seeing him. Because she wanted to make sure, that he is alright...? Because she wanted to thank him for saving her...? Because she felt like she hadn't seen him way too long? All these reasons were true, but there was still something else. Hikaru blushed deeply, realizing how fast her heart beats got only thinking about him. She remembered this strange feeling in her chest, before he found her in the warehouse. It had been a very warm and special feeling, that helped her to calm her fears. Somehow she had felt him coming, before she even heard him, calling her name. She had felt, as if there was a bond connecting them. Hikaru didn't understand that bond completely. Was it because he had used her bey? Hikaru remembered Mr. Hagane telling her about the mysterious powers, that beys had. But she never had heard of something like that...was the power of beys really that strong, that it could create a bond between two people? Or was it the fact that he loved her so much, that gave him this power to connect their hearts within this bond?

Hikaru felt so confused. She always thought, that there was no way for her of being together with him and right now, all she wanted was to be with him. She realized that her heart had been acting weird, since a long time ago, even before he confessed to her. It had been hurting her once in a while, when she thought of him or spend time with him at the hospital. Maybe her heart had been craving for this love before she even realized it herself? Feelings were overflowing inside Hikaru´s heart, when she finally understood her own feelings, her soul screaming them. She loved him. She loved him so much it hurt. Oh god...how could she have been so blind?

Suddenly she felt very anxious and embarrassed about seeing him. After all she turned him down, when he confessed to her. But he sure was going to forgive her about that, right? But what if he didn't? Ryuga sure must have figured out about her spying on him...what if he was hurt because she did that? After all she took advantage of him and his situation...oh god! He must hate her by now... Hikaru felt herself tremble at these thoughts...but then again...why did he save her? He remembered his past and everything, still he came for her... there had to be a reason for that! And she wasn't going to find that out, if she didn't see him and speak to him...

Feeling a little scared, but on the same time curious, she pulled the blanket away. She was going to see him! No matter what...

When she stood up, she felt very dizzy again. She was still very weak because of the latest events... They had bandaged her hole chest and stomach, when she had been resting. Hikaru felt like an old granny and her knees felt so weak, as if they couldn't carry her body. She hold up on the wall, panting a little. She needed a few minutes until she took the next step, slowly, afraid of losing her balance. With every step, it got a little better. Her stomach was still hurting, but it had been worse.

She knew that she was being stubborn, but she wasn't going to wait until the next day. She wanted to see him now!

She wondered if he was in the same floor and room, as he used to. Or did they transfer him to another room? She remembered Madoka telling her, that he had been in intensive care. Hikaru had been so many times at the hospital in the past month, that she knew, that the intensive care was on the third floor. She wondered on which floor her room was. Well, that was something she would find out easily...

oOo

Finally Hikaru had found his room. It took her longer then she thought, since she was walking so slow. But she didn't want to overdo it, or else she would fall down...it was good, that it was already that late. She didn't meet anyone on the floor. Everyone was in his room, since it was night time...

Hikaru slowly opened the door, wondering what she going to see. She really hoped, that Ryuga was doing fine. What she saw made her sigh in relief. There he was, laying in his bed. He didn't have a oxygen mask and he looked handsome, just like he always did! His eyes were closed and he was breathing calmly. Hikaru felt so happy, seeing him, that her eyes teared up a little. She went over to his bed, looking down on him. Her heart was beating very fast, he looked so cute, when he was asleep. She didnt want to wake him, but felt this very strong desire to touch him. Even if it was only for a few seconds. Gently she let her hand touch his silky hair. Right in this very moment, he opened his eyes immediately. Surprised Hikaru backed away...

Im sorry, she muttered, feeling guilty. She didnt expect that. I didnt mean to wake you...

Ryuga looked at her, astonished.

Hikaru? What are you doing here? He asked her. He didnt look very pleased about her intrusion. He sat up.

Hikaru swallowed hard.

I-I eh...well..I just wanted to see you...she admitted, feeling like a complete idiot.

Hmmm...Ryuga seemed to be in a bad mood. Hikaru didnt understand why. So he was angry with her after all?

Ryuga, Im sorry, that I-

Why are you apolozing?, he interrupted her frustrated. Im a monster...you should stay away from me...

Eh? Hikaru didnt understand anything anymore. Why did he call himself monster?

What are you talking about? She asked him frowning.

She remembered how he told her that his parents hated him and called him a monster for his amazing strength and battle power. She couldnt help it, but feel sorry for the little boy, that had such terrible parents. Why was he mentioning that now? He wasnt a monster!

Wait...you are not still going on about this Battle blader thing, are you? She couldnt believe this! She thought he was angry with her for syping on him and he was blaming himself for Battle blader?

Of course I am, he hissed, sounding desperate. He didnt even look at her.

Ryuga? Hikaru questioned softly, reaching out to touch him. He flinched away before her fingers could land on him.

How can you even look at me after what I did? he whispered, his voice tormented.

Ryuga, it's in the past now, Hikaru insisted. It's okay...

Silver hair flew as Ryuga snapped his head up to stare at her, his expression tortured. No, it's not okay!, he exploded, his eyebrows pulled low over his pained eyes. I could've killed you that day... so don't you dare tell me that it's not important!

Ever since the seal of L-drago was broken, the dark power was taking over me... In the end, Im no better than Doji! Im a monster... even now, just because of me you got kidnapped! Just because of me you have been in such danger! If you hadnt met me, you wouldnt have been in this situation! I'm disgusted with myself! How am I supposed to live with myself after that?!

His hands clenched around digging into the blanket and snarled in agony, rage, and self-hatred.

Hikaru stared in complete awe at Ryuga, her lips parted with shock. Never once had she ever seen Ryuga so distraught.

But I'm alive, so what's the problem, she insisted. You saved me!

That's not the point! Ryuga bellowed. You're not understanding! This isnt about me saving you! This is about me, being the reason that you got kidnapped in first place!

Ryuga….Hikaru murmured. She was shocked, that he was so upset about that. Why only did he hate himself that much?

Just leave me alone, Hikaru , he whispered quietly.

Watching him sadly, the blue haired girl said, Alright, and turned around.

When he didn't respond, Hikaru sighed and continued on her way.

Maybe it's not a good idea to leave him alone, she mused. It might be better if I'm there to stop him from doing anything foolhardy. She didnt walk all the way here, to leave him now. Not like that!

She changed her mind and turned around again. When she did, she saw him laying there in his bed, one arm was thrown over his eyes and his head turned to the side.

Without speaking, she carefully walked around his bed, when suddenly a soft voice reached her ears.

I'm sorry, Hikaru , Ryuga murmured faintly, still not looking her. About you getting kidnapped...and about attacking you at Battle bladers.

You didn't mean to, she reminded him kindly. She knew now, that this hadnt been him. And you have already apologized to me about that, she reminded him.

I know that, but it seems to me you're always seeing that violent demon side of me, he whispered. And… I'm not always like that. You… you bring out the human in me, and yet, you've never witnessed that side. I'm beginning to wish… that I was another guy so it would be impossible for me to lose control over my body or powers, so I would never hurt you. I want to prove that I'm not a monster.

Ryuga, I already know that you aren't a monster, she said, sitting down on the bed, beside him. And don't you dare wish you were someone else. There is nothing wrong with being the way you are. You don't have t-

They heard voices from behind the door. Damn! They had been too loud! That was Nancy! If she found Hikau in here, that would mean a lot of trouble! After all she wasnt supposed to be here!

Quick! Hide here, Ryuga said, pushing his blanket away.

Eh? B-but...Nancy still going to see here, even if she was hiding under his blanket! That was crazy!

Her steps got closer. Since she had no other options left Hikaru hid under his blanket, feeling very stupid though. Her heart was beating very fast, when she lay there next to him, feeling his warmth. Her face was all red.

Nancy opened the door. She didnt enter though. Ryuga lay on his side and since Hikaru was smaller than him, she didnt see her. She only saw his profile. The door was closed again.

Hikaru couldnt believe that it worked out. They heard her leaving. Hikaru was still feeling nervous, she never had been so close to him. She looked up to his face.

Light sparkled in Ryugas golden eyes. The moon was shining through the window of his room. She had to get up.

Before Hikaru could scamper away, he seized her by the arm and dragged her back on top of him. Violet irises widened and a surprised gasp escaped her lips, her entire body stiffening as one strong, toned arm encircled her waist, keeping her pinned to him. Fixing her with a deep, piercing, amber gaze, Hikaru's heart fluttered erratically in her chest and her breathing picked up speed.

Ryuga…?, she breathed weakly, unable to find her voice. Wh-what're you doing?

Showing you my human side, he whispered softly.

Faster than she thought the injured boy could move, Ryuga had flipped them over so that he was now on top and she was staring up in shock at him. A fine trembling overcame her body as her heart sputtered frantically.

Hikaru swallowed thickly as she gazed wide-eyed up at the handsome guy above her.

Everything about Ryuga was practically dripping with seductiveness and sensuality. His silver-white hair and fair skin, being reflected through the moonlight and giving them an unearthly, milky glow. Every line in his sculpted chest, stomach and arms was highlighted through the jams. His amber eyes were deeply intense with an emotion Hikaru had never seen aimed at her.

Before her brain could accurately process what emotion it was, she was distracted by the feel of Ryuga sliding his hand against the side of her face. Warm fingers gently entwined in her hair. Then, suddenly, his mouth had descended upon hers, capturing her lips in an extremely passionate kiss.

For several long heartbeats, Hikaru's mind went completely blank. Words stilled in her mind. Thoughts of the past and wonders of the future were forgotten. Anything that wasn't concerned with the present was unimportant now.

Her brain had completely shut down. No messages were being sent to the rest of her body to react to him. She couldn't remember how to move her arms or mouth or any other part of her body. She was reduced to simply staring up at Ryuga face in numb amazement.

When she didn't react to his kiss, Ryuga pulled away from her lips. He averted his gaze, his eyes downcast and disheartened.

Sorry, he murmured, his cheeks flushed in embarrassment.

Suddenly, everything came crashing back to Hikaru. Thoughts whirled at super-speed within her head. Emotions of shock, wonder, and joy electrified every fiber of her being. The sequence of events fell into place, piecing together like a jigsaw puzzle. Everything made sense now.

Ryuga had kissed her.

And she hadn't kissed him back.

Before he could pull away completely, Hikaru seized him around the back of his skull and dragged his mouth back to hers. It only took Ryuga a second to register what was happening before his hands slid under her back, crushing her firmly to him and kissing her with every ounce of his soul.

The sheer passion and raw desire of the kiss knocked the breath right from her lungs. Clinging to him for dear life, Hikaru kissed him back as best as she knew how to. What she lacked in skill, she made up with unbridled fervor that matched Ryuga. Fingers twisted in his hair. Gasps escaped her throat. Heat soared within her body. Her entire body shook intensely each and every time Ryuga's his lips melded with hers.

Suddenly, he began to draw away from her mouth, and Hikaru tightened her grip on him, unwilling to let him escape.

No,she whimpered against his lips, trying to drag him back to her.

A light chuckle escaped him as he broke the kiss easily, his physical strength – even when injured – greatly surpassing Hikaru s.

Relax, he breathed, giving her a quick peck on the lips. I'm not going anywhere.

Ryuga lowered his head to plant tender butterfly kisses all along her cheek, jaw, and neck. She sighed, clutching at his back as another tiny quake ran through her delicate frame.

Why… are you… shaking? he murmured between kisses, cupping her chin and tilting her head back so that he could nuzzle the junction between her jaw and throat, nipping at the skin there.

B-because I've never… done this b-before, she answered timidly, gasping and tightening her grip on him as he lightly sucked on her throat. A-and I never dreamed th-that… you would actually ever be… doing this with m-me...

Ryuga chuckled against her skin. It was a low, seductive sound that vibrated sensually against her skin and sent a jolt of pleasurable heat shooting straight through her. The noise had her panting with unspeakable desire.

So, it's a good thing that you're shaking? he breathed, lifting his head to lightly kiss her on the lips.

She shivered as he touched his forehead to hers, gazing intently into her eyes. His fingers combed through her blue tresses, letting the satiny hair slide trough his fingers like liquid ink.

It's a very good thing, she reassured him, one trembling hand lightly stroking his face.

Ryuga grinned crookedly, giving him a very mischievous appearance.

Well, then, he murmured, leaning close to her ear and whispered, Let's see if I can get you to shiver a little more.

A pleasured shudder passed through her as Ryuga licked down the shell of her ear, ending it with a little nibble on her earlobe. Her reaction only made Ryuga grin wider.

Hmm…he mused thoughtfully. That's almost too simple. Perhaps I should challenge myself a little more. Maybe I should try to make you moan instead?

Hikaru blushed scarlet and Ryuga chuckled seductively.

I'll consider that as an invitation to go ahead, he breathed, capturing her lips.

Clutching her to his chest, Ryuga rolled so that they were both lying on their sides without breaking the kiss. One hand pillowed the uninjured, right side of her face with his fingers entwined in her hair. Hikaru´s hands rested lightly on Ryuga's chest, very lightly and timidly stroking the line of his collarbone with her fingertips. Such a simple touch made Ryuga growl with desire and crush his lips more firmly against hers.

Using his one free arm, Ryuga fastened her arms firmly around his neck. Breaking the kiss, he whispered huskily, Keep your arms there. They're acting as a shield should the nurse return. Don't want her to see what we're doing, now do we?

Hikaru's cheeks heated up. Wh-what exactly are we doing that would be bad for Nancy to see?

He grinned, his hand falling to her shirt. This.

With one quick tug, the loosely tied waistbelt around her jams fell free as he kissed her, and his hand slipped under the fabric of the jams. Hikaru gasped when his hand touched the bare skin of her hip. A tiny whimper escaped her, he lightly dragged his palm up and down her side, his hands gently stroking her skin. Goose bumps broke out over every place he touched.

Breaking away from a panting Hikaru, Ryuga gently kissed along the red marks she had on her cheek and throat. Rather than hurting, Ryuga's tender kisses seemed to be soothing the pain of the wounds, and sparking a fire deep within the pit of Hikaru's stomach. Gasping, her fingers dug into his thick hair as his hand crept higher and higher up on her ribs, teasingly tickling the wraps that encircled her breasts and chest. She groaned in frustration as he skirted around her breasts and shimmied up the side of the arms enveloping his neck. His fingertips traced her collarbone, then slipped under the fabric of the bandages and carefully stroke them.

Dipping his head down, Ryuga kissed and licked his way down the girl's panting, trembling throat, working his way to the bruises. He kissed the wounds as his hand finally left her collarbone to lightly stroke her breast.

Hikaru gasped, her eyes flying open, and Ryuga smiled against her skin.

Are you enjoying my human side? he whispered, lifting his head to kiss her softly.

Y-yes, b-but Ryuga, Hikaru panted, wrapping her arms tightly around him, You're not th-thinking we should stop here? After all he was badly injured! And this was a hospital...

I've considered it, he admitted, still not letting go. But I dont why I somehow dont feel like it..?

I think I should return to my room now..., she gasped, tucking her head into the crook of his neck as she fought to catch her breath. And I d-don't want you to overdo it...

Drawing back slightly to look into her eyes, Ryuga removed his hand from her breast to cup her cheek and tilted her head up to him. I may be an injured guy, Ryuga murmured, but I love you way too much to let you go now...Im lovesick!

Eeeehhhh?

B-but...Hikaru felt her defense weaken No. She had to be reasonable...even though her heart and a rather larger part of her brain told her not to.

Please stay here, he begged, his voice getting a little deeper, making it hard for her to think rationally.

If you stay I promise that I will stop. Why dont you sleep here...? He asked. I want to sleep holding you in my arms...

The blue haired girl seriously didnt know what to say. She wanted to stay with him too...snugglig closer to his heated, welcoming body, she listened intently to his heartbeat and his steedy, deep breaths. O-okay, she murmured blushing. The thought of parting from him right now felt so painful... and she didnt feel like walking all the way back to her room either.

But you have to sleep or else Im going to leave! she warned him. He smiled happily.

Alright! He closed his eyes, showing her that he was serious.. Hikaru had to giggle. He was acting so sweet! Good night, she muttered and craned her head to kiss the underside of his defined jaw. I love you!

A blissful smile appeard on his face, when she said that. He still had his eyes closed. Putting his arms around her, he murmured gently. I love you too!

The End
