Yosuke's POV:

Shit!!!

That's Yu. It's definitely him. I'd know him from anywhere. What the hell is he doing here?! Where are the others?!

Even so... Fuck. He's okay. He's okay.

"What's got you so worked up?" Giichi calls from the bed.

"N-nothing," I splutter, doing my best to hide the monitors.

"Yosuke," he frowns, sitting up.

In a panic, I grab a cup of coffee and spill it across the wires.

"What the hell!?" Giichi shouts.

"Sh-shit, I... I'm so sorry!"

He sighs, gritting his teeth. "It's... it's fine."

"I- I'll go get something to clean it up-"

"You can't just clean this-"

But I run out of the room before he can finish.

~~~

"What the hell are you doing here?" I snap lowly, marching over to him.

"Yosuke..." He breathes. His eyes light up, as he crashes into me, almost knocking me off my feet.

I gasp a little unwillingly as he embraces me, and I can't help but hold him tighter. "...I'm glad you're okay."

"...What are you talking about?" He murmurs over my shoulder.

"I just... I am." I squeeze him harder.

"...I'm glad you're okay, too," he sighs.

"...Are you... bleeding?" I ask quietly.

He nods slowly. "I'm okay, though."

"Yu-" I try to pull back to help him, but he hugs me tighter.

"It only hurts a tad, Yosuke. Trust me, I'm fine."

"...You're bleeding, man."

"...That's not what's important right now. What's important is that I've found you."

"I know... But... You have to go," I mumble into his shoulder.

"What?" He frowns, pulling back with a great force. "But... I just got here? Hey, are you okay? You look on edge. Are you with Miura? Has he said something to you? Has he-"

"Yu." I clasp a hand over his mouth. "Stop talking."

He finally nods, and I let go.

"Please," I whisper. "You're... You're ruining everything."

"...What?" His eyebrows crease.

"Where are the others?"

"That's not important."

"Fucking idiot." I punch him softly in the chest. "You need to be more careful. It's dangerous in here."

"You need to come with me," he says sternly, actually holding his chest in slight pain. "Please, Yosuke. Come back."

"If you don't leave now, they're gonna spot us together." I look around at the
surveillance cameras, feeling as my toes curl up with unease.

"So let's hurry and go," he pleads quietly. He takes my hand, trying to drag me away. But I stay put. "Hey..." He mutters.

"Go."

"No."

"Dude-"

"Don't 'dude' me," he scoffs. "Let's get outta the town. Just so I can talk to you. Please?"
