[TUESDAY | EARLY MORNING]

[onetwoko]

*Akihiko is in bed, the covers pulled up over him. There are bandages where he got scratches. He looks as if he is asleep but has yet to regain conciousness after last night's mission. His brow is slightly furrowed, but otherwise he is mostly still.*

-is leaning against his bed, arms on the mattress-

Ne, Akihiko-senpai... gomen... I- I'm... ... this is..

This is my fault... if I had been paying attention, this wouldn't have happened. I would have warned you. I could have warned you. I-

.... I'm sorry I couldn't predict this... I-

.........

-takes his hand and rests it against her forehead-

I'm really sorry...

[onetwoko]

*His fingers curl slightly, grasping Fayt's hand that holds up his. His brow draws tighter and the ends of his mouth contort downwards just a little, as if he is in pain. He seems to still be not fully conscious, but he mutters something, barely audible.*

...orry....

[sees_chairman]

....! -holds his hand a little tighter-

No... don't be sorry... It's nothing but my fault... but... just...

....

just don't leave me okay?

I-...

I wouldn't know what I could do... -closes her eyes-

...just--

[onetwoko]

*His grip starts to lax as he slowly slips back into unconciousness again*

P....everyone in...anger...Ga...a scare...

[sees_chairman]

-holds onto his hand-

You're not in danger... you're here... with me...

here....

I just... need you to wake up.... onegai....

[onetwoko]

*Akihiko's eyelids scrunched together, then opened a crack, feeling blinded by the morning sun filtering through the window."

.......

[sees_chairman]

I- I won't leave... until you wake up...

I can't let anyone or anything take you away from me... not... someone else that I hold close to me...

I won't let this happen again... I'll repent for what happened to you... It's my fault and I'll accept that...

Just... -rests her head against the mattress-
....don't....
...leave me.... -falls asleep-

[onetwoko]

.....

*Lays in silence until he is sure she is fast asleep, then lets out a long breath, pulling off a weak lopsided smile before tilting his head sideways and lightly gripping her hand*

....I'll be here.

*Turns head to stare at the ceiling, eyes slowly adjusting to the sunlight.*

[sees_chairman]

-sleep talking whut?-

....hm.... that's....

how it should be....

.........

... daisuki.....

[fatal_requiem]

-walks into the room-

So you're awake.

[onetwoko]

*Turns head a little to get a better view* ....Yeah.

...How long have I been out?

[fatal_requiem]

Close to a day.

-looks down at fayt-

She hasn't moved since they moved you in here.

[onetwoko]

*Turns head to the wall, withdrawing his hand back under the covers, albeit with a little difficulty.*

.....I messed up again.

[fatal_requiem]

Shit happens. Just be lucky you didn't die...

.....?

Again?

[onetwoko]

...I wasn't careful enough and ended up putting people in danger.

....

...What if something had happened while I was out cold? I was supposed to be their support.

...Not their burden.

*Stares blankly at the wall*

The most important thing is that the silent kid found an access point and they got out of there and that you're not dead. Let's just keep to that.
