"I would never leave you." Muraki whispered, his fingers gently tracing the top of Oriya's hand. The man felt so guilty, that it was beginning to eat him up inside.
~ ~ ~
Muraki returned the smile, "I will." he replied, his hand clinging to Oriya's own. 'You saved me, Oriya-kun... I can never return the favor...' the teen thought.

Oriya smiles just a bit. He knows that isn't true... really, Muraki's left him many times in the past. But it's nice to hear, and he doesn't have the energy to argue. "How long will this last?"
----
He passes out heavily within moments. He hasn't slept in about two days, at this point. Holding Muraki's hand tightly... this feels really, really right.

"It could just be a few days." Muraki replied honestly. "It depends on how well your body takes to the treatment." the doctor sighed softly. "Worst case, you'll be stuck here for months... but I swear, Oriya-kun... I won't let you remain here. As soon as I see that you're stable, I'll have you transferred back home, and I'll personally take care of you."
~ ~ ~
The teen closed his good eye. A few minutes earlier, a nurse had given him more painkillers. He was ready to sleep again. But Oriya was already asleep... and he had done so very much for the teen... Muraki grasped Oriya's hand tightly, turning his body so that he was facing his friend. The last thing Muraki saw before passing out, was Oriya's calm and peaceful expression.

He nods slowly, frowning just a little. ".. When I feel better, we will be having a talk about all of this." Voice just a bit steely, thinking about the consequences that could have happened. "But for now.. Thank you."
----
When Oriya opens his eyes again, he smiles. Just watching Muraki, who finally looks content and out of pain. He wants to protect that.

"I don't deserve your thanks." Muraki replied honestly. "It was my fault. I brought this on you." He had to fix his mistakes. And then, the doctor swore to himself, he would forever leave Oriya out of his affairs. Even if that meant never seeing the man again.
~ ~ ~
Sleeping peacefully, Muraki shifted, his face moving closer to Oriya's. "Arigatou..." the teen whispers, dreaming.

"Yes, you did. But you're staying with me, and that counts for more than you might think."
((Muraki, you tool XD))
----
Oriya can't help it. Unthinkingly leaning forward the couple of inches and brushing his lips very lightly over Muraki's.

"Tabun..." Muraki whispered, but he soon smiled softly, watching his friend with calculating eyes. "I need to know, Oriya-kun... are you still in pain? Do you have any symptoms aside from exhaustion?"
~ ~ ~
The teen's grip on his friend's hand tightened slightly. Muraki didn't wake up, but, even in his sleep, he responded to Oriya's kiss. He did so, by inching even closer to his friend.

His friend's response makes him raise an eyebrow, but he lets it go. Shrugging a little. "It still seems very bright.. and my skin is sensitive, but not painful."
----
Oriya kisses hi for several more moments, just.. enjoying the moment, before breaking it, guiltily.

"It should take your eyes some time to adjust." the doctor replied, picking up Oriya's medical chart and scribbling into them. "The sensitivity should get better the longer you undergo the treatment." he sighed, gaze finding Oriya again. "I've asked those at your establishment to see their doctors as well, to make sure nothing was spread to them. So far, everyone seems fine."
~ ~ ~
Without realizing it, Muraki's free hand moved forward, resting lightly against Oriya's shoulder and arm. It was somewhat like a hug, bringing him closer to the other teen. He felt safe and warm... even in his sleep.

"Good." He frowns a little. "Please also have them contact the customer I was dining with last night." As he thinks about this more and more, he's realizing how very, very bad this could be.
----
Oriya sighs... Muraki apparently isn't going to make being noble very easy. He shifts in a little, resting one hand lightly on his waist and tucking his chin on top of Muraki's head. Trying to relax and sleep some more.

Muraki nodded, "I've taken the liberty of making sure all of the guests who were logged in, in both books," oh yes, Muraki knew there were two seperate guest check-in ledgers. "Have been contacted and asked to see their physicians. The cause I gave is that there had been a contamination of some of the sake. I had evidence planted that the contamination came from the manufacturer, and thus have made sure you're not implicated in any resulting problems." The doctor was quite thorough.
~ ~ ~
Snuggling against Oriya, Muraki continued to sleep peacefully, clinging to his friend. The teen's breath trailed lightly over Oriya's neck, one hand grasping Oriya's clothes, the other his friend's hand.

"Thorough." He smiles a little. "Perhaps I won't have to yell at you too much, then.
----
It makes him shiver, being this close to Muraki. Sighing, he nuzzles into his hair a little. Closing his eyes, it takes some time to get to sleep -- uncomfortable with how comfortable this is. But eventually, he does drift off again.

Muraki smiled softly. "I've learned a thing or two, Oriya-kun. You've been cleaning up my messes for years... it's only natural that I learn how to take care of my own."
~ ~ ~
Not too long after Oriya fell asleep again, Muraki woke. The teen opened his eye, realizing just how entangled with his friend he is... For a moment, he lays there in shock. But soon... Soon Muraki comes to realize that Oriya... is quite comfortable. The teen closes his eye, smiling to himself as he holds Oriya close and vice versa. Oh yes... Muraki was quite comfortable.

He smiles too. Tugging on Muraki's hand a little. "Lie down with me?" It of course can't help but remind him of that day in the hospital with muraki so many years ago... but now the roles are changed.
----
It's another few hours before Oriya wakes again... stretching a little, comfortably, looking down at muraki to make suer he's okay.

Muraki laughed happily, "I guess we haven't changed that much after all... have we?" the doctor asked with a smile. "But I fear the bed may be too small this time around, Oriya-kun. Though... I wouldn't ever dream of denying that request."
~ ~ ~
"You're awake..." Muraki whispered, having woken again not long before Oriya.
