The Spy and The Detective (Daisuke Kambe x Reader)

28

I stared at Daisuke as he rested in the hospital bed. The nurse told me he should wake up very soon. I wiped the tears that streamed down my cheeks as I watch his chest rise and fall a slowly. Who would of thought I would care so much for this arrogant man. I smiled to myself as I thought back on when we first met.

"How did you manage to make me feel like this again..?" I laughed to myself. I pulled my hair back and tied it into a ponytail while looking up at the ceiling.
"I guess it wouldn't be so bad living in Japan...huh." I told myself. I looked back down at Daisuke and leaned into the bed. I grabbed a hold of his hand and pulled it up gently towards me. I place my lips on his fingers and give his hand a tiny squeeze.

"You know...it's been really hard for me these past few years without Luke. I know I'm a broken record with him, but he was my soul mate. I think you both would've been great friends. Well...maybe not at first but you'd grow to love each other. I...know he'd want me to move on...I just never could...until now. I'll always love Luke and cherish him in my heart. And even though I said he was my soul mate, I believe that a person can have more than one in their life. You and I? I think you're exactly what I've been missing. So I just need you to wake up and tell me that you are in, because...I am in this. I'll probably have to tell you this again but that's fine. Daisuke..." I rambled on.

Daisuke grinned as he opened both his eyes slowly. He turned his head and kept that wide grin on his lips. "Can you repeat all of that again?" He asked. My eyes grew wide and my cheeks burned from embarrassment. I shook my head and smacked his hand. He chuckled as he reached for my hand and intertwined his fingers into mine.

"Live with me." Daisuke said. I stared at him in shock as his eyes scanned me for a response. I laughed, pretending to think hard about it. "I mean I already do." I joked. Daisuke grinned even bigger and pulled me down towards him. I grabbed a hold of the edge of the bed to catch myself from falling but I end up falling into his chest. He grunts in pain causing me to worry and check him, but he ignores the pain and pulls my face to his, planting a kiss onto my lips. I melt into him and kiss him back, letting out all my frustration, worry, and desire into the kiss.

I pull away slightly and exhale as he brushes a strand of my hair away from my cheek. "I've never been this happy in my whole life." Daisuke professed. I placed a hand on his cheek and smiled back at him. "Daisuke..." I whispered. He placed his hand on top of my and closed his eyes. "No matter what you decide, you'll be the woman I marry one day...I know it." He insisted.

Hearing him say "marry" caught me off guard. Before, I would've never cared for it. Now, I actually could see myself having a family with Daisuke.

A nurse breaks up our moment as she comes in to check on him. She looks over at me and smiles. "How are you doing Mr. Kambe?" She asked. Daisuke looks up at her with a small smile. "I'm feeling fine. When am I able to leave?" He asked impatiently. The nurse laughed and checked the monitors, writing down some of the information on her paper.

"You'll have to be here for a few days just to make sure everything heals fine." She said. Daisuke muttered something that I couldn't hear which made me give him a dirty glare. He turned his face away from me as he frowned but still held onto my hand tightly. He then turned back towards the nurse. "How is Ms. Onisha doing?" He asked. The nurse looked at him with a sad look on her face, telling me that it wasn't good news.

"I don't know the exacts of her situation so I rather not explain, but I can have someone else speak to you about it. Give me one moment." She explained, quickly rushing out of the door. Daisuke looked over at me and sighed. "I know you and Liz aren't on good terms, but I hope she is ok." He said quietly. I sigh into my hands and brush my hair back behind me. "Even after everything that has happened, she's still my best friend. I can see why she did what she did so I won't blame her." I professed.

Before Daisuke could reply, a man walks into the room towards us. "Are you both related to Ms. Onisha?" He asked.

"I'm her best friend. The closest to family she has." I stated. The doctor nodded and rubbed the back of his neck  and looked at us with a sad expression. "We tried everything we could for her, but her injuries were to severe. We revived her twice but she wouldn't respond to anything so she died. I'm very sorry for your loss." He explained.

My eyes stayed focused on the doctor as I started to tremble. I could hear mumbling sounds of people talking but I completely zoned them out. I was in shock and didn't know what to do. The only thing I wanted to do now was to see Liz. "Take me to her. I need to see her." I muttered just loud enough to be heard. The doctor frowned and just nodded his head. I could hear Daisuke saying something but I ignored him and followed the doctor in a trance.

The doctor leads me to a room where I could see Liz's figure underneath a white cloth. I walk over to it and place my hand on top, letting the tears fall onto the cloth that I didn't know I was holding in. I bowed my head and sobbed loudly, wanting to smash something. I look up towards where her head was covered and gently pull down the cloth to reveal her face. Her face was pale, her eyes were shut and she looked peaceful. I placed my hand onto her cheek and flinched by the sudden coldness that hit my warm hand. I smiled and cried out loud as I couldn't believe my friend was gone...and it was all my fault...again.
