The Burning Truth (Slow Updates)

[ 13 ]

Enji slowly opened his eyes and squinted his eyes from the blinding light. He sat up and looked at his surroundings and realized he was in UA.

'H-how did I get here...?' He thought to himself until he suddenly remembered everything that had happened and panicked.

His breath became labored and the heart monitor beeps loudly in his ears. The room spun as he forced himself to get up, but only winced in pain from the bruises that hadn't fully healed yet. Enji felt his eyes water, and he tried to yell for someone, but nothing came out.

The heart monitor beeps louder than his anxiety spikes higher. It felt like the room was closing in on him, trying to swallow him in complete darkness. Then suddenly the door burst open from hearing the heart monitor going beeping like crazy and appeared was Shouta with worry and concern written all over his face. Shouta was coming to check on Enji to see if he was awake, but then he heard the heart monitor going off rapidly and running to Enji. He rushed towards his side to calm him down.

'Shit! He's having a panic attack!!' Shouta thought to himself in worry as he gently turned Enji's head to face him on the side of the bed.

Tears streamed down Enji's face as he looked at Shouta. He was afraid of what the others think now that found out and most importantly on what Valk will do when finds out.

"Hey hey Enji it's alright. Calm down and tell me what you hear." Shouta told Enji quietly.

Enji tried to calm his breathing so he could focus and listen for any sounds. The sound of Enji's heart monitor is slowing down at each deep breath Enji takes. After a couple of minutes Enji was calm enough to answer Shouta.

"I....hear the heart m-monitor beeping...." He said softly to Shouta.

Shouta nods his head softly. "Okay, now tell me what you see." He said to Enji.

Enji slowly looked around in the infirmary and spotted a flower vase full of white lilies. He looked back at Shouta to tell him what he saw, until he realized Shouta was wearing a man bun.

'When the hell did Shouta put his hair in a man bun..??' He thought to himself. It took Enji a full minute before he responded back to Shouta.

"I see a flower vase full of white lilies and you are wearing a man bun..?" Enji said sounded more like a question then he intended to actually be.

Shouta grins and rolls his eyes playfully. 'At least he finally calmed down now...' He thought to himself not trying to show any hint of sadness that'll make Enji start blaming himself for it.

"Why yes I am in fact wearing a man bun." Shouta stated.

"Well at least you look less like a hobo than you did before..." Enji replied.

Shouta almost forgot that they both was still in UA, key word almost,but then again he is a petty little shit and knows how to get back at Enji.

"Says the one who still have a gay panic whenever Toshinori is shritless or wearing sweatpants." He said with a shit eating grin.

He then doges a pillow being thrown at him by a very embarrassed Enji as his grin grew wider on his face.

"SHUT UP!" Enji yelled while blushing madly to his face down to his neck.

Enji knows that he couldn't lie and say it's not true, especially to Shouta's face. Sometimes he forgets the things he tells Shouta can be used against him, just like right now.

Shouta only laughed at Enji before saying. "Well you should be glad that you'll get to see it more often since you're staying at UA dorms until further notice."
