I glance at Hanasaki, to see him staring at Y/N. I look away because I don't want to start fighting. If you think you can steal Y/N from me... then you better forget it, Hanasaki. Because she's mine.

-Case Closed-

Y/N P.O.V

Hanasaki came up with an idea that the person behind this might be using some sort of gadget. So, he asked Yoshio to act as a bait. With his shield power, those people would certainly become interested in getting him on the media.

Hanasaki and I watch from the distant. I hear the sound of motorcycle. I turn my head to the sound, making sure that I'm still hidden. Things starts collapsing on Yoshio. I just watch in worry, despite knowing that he won't be harm in any way.

I watch as something start showering down. Hanasaki rush forward and kicks the person down. I walk calmly, with my hands inside my pockets. Hanasaki points the man's camera at him, making him hide his face.

I feel something grab me, something cold is placed on my neck. I turn my head to the side to see the man's friend holding a knife against my neck. Yoshio and Hanasaki turn to us.

"Let her go!" Yoshio screamed out. Hanasaki take a step closer to us. "Stop! Any closer and I'm going to kill her!" The man holding me said. I just let out a chuckle at what he said.

"Try me... you don't have the guts to do that. It's useless to even try" I said. The man looks taken aback by my comment. His shocked face turn into anger. "Don't try to test me!" He said. He press the knife to my neck, just enough until the blood to seep out.

But the moment he pulls the knife away from my neck. The wound on my neck heals and it appears on his neck. He let out a gasp as he pulls away from me, and clutched onto his neck. I turn around and face him.

"W-W-What a-are you?" He said. I tilt my head to the side at his question. "A human, of course... I'm just cursed with these powers. You can't hurt me..." I said. He just shakes his head in disbelief.

He let out a scream and start swinging his knife at me. I got cut a few times, only for them to instantly heals. He drops on the ground with blood seeping through his newly formed cuts.

"I told you it's useless..." I said. He starts to back away from me, until he can't anymore due to the wall behind him. I walk up to him, and kneels down. He stares at me with fear in his eyes. "Stay still..." I said. I lift my hand, causing him to flinch and shut his eyes tightly. I place my hand on his shoulder, willing my power to flow through his body. The wounds on his body starts closing up at a rapid pace.

His eyes snaps open as he stares at his body in shock. He turns to look at me. I give him a soft close eyes smile. I stand straight as police officers arrives here and took them away.

Yoshio rushes towards me, throwing his arms around me. I flinch at his sudden move. I relaxes and wraps my arms around him. He tighten his arms around me. I can feel his body shaking slightly.

"Yoshio... I'm okay" I said. He buries his face in the crook of my neck. "I know. But I'm still worried..." he said. I just smile at what he said. I lift my hand and gently caress his head, running my hand through his white hair.

"I'm a little tired though... that's the longest I've ever use my power" I said. Yoshio pulls away from me. He reach down, placing his hand behind my knees. I let out a yelp as he scoops me up in his arms. My arms instantly went around his neck.

"We should head back. So you can get some rest" he said. I just nod my head and rest my head on his shoulder. He turns around and start walking towards the car where Inoue-Nii is waiting for us. He opens the back door to help us. Yoshio places me inside. I scoot aside to give him space.

I notice Inoue-Nii offers Hanasaki a lift. But he refuses his offer. Yoshio clicked his tongue and enters the car. He closes the door. I just scoot closer to him, gently placing my head on his shoulder. He places a soft kiss on the side of my head, and rested his head on top of mine.

I turn my gaze slightly to look at Hanasaki. He stares at me with a sad expression. He slowly looks away once he notice me staring back at him. I just let out a soft sigh and look away from him. I snuggle closer to Yoshio's side as he held my hand in his. The car starts to move, heading towards the office.

My eyes starts to feel heavy. I've never felt this tired. It must be because I rarely ever use my power. The longest time I use my it was when I was still held captive by the bad people. But after Nii-Chan rescued me, I've never used it that long. I just close my eyes and let myself drift off to sleep.

***

I slowly open my eyes and realize I'm in my room. My head feels heavy. I've never been sick before since my power is healing. I don't understand why I got sick now. Maybe because I exhaust myself? But that's probably not it... I've never got sick even when I was imprisoned.

I turn my head when someone walks in, to see Yoshio. He walks over to me holding a tray in his hands. He looks a little relieved when he notices me awake. He walks up to a desk and places the tray down. He walks up to me and take a seat on the edge of the bed.

"What happened, Y/N? You never get sick before..." he said, in a soft tone as he places a hand on my forehead. I just shake my head, letting him know that I didn't know either. He let out a sigh and caresses my hair. "You had me worried when your body starts burning up... but at least your fever went down a little" he said.

I just smile apologetically at him, feeling bad for making him worried about me. "I'm sorry for worrying you..." I said. He leans down and gently places a soft kiss on my forehead.

"Don't think about it... just focus on getting better" he said, in a soft tone. I just nod my head at what he said. He smiles softly at me. He stands up and grabs a bowl of water from the tray he brought with him. He walks back towards me, placing the bowl on the bedside table. He rinse a towel and wring it out. He turns to me and gently place the wet towel on my forehead.

"Get some rest... I'll take care of you" he said. I nod my head. He take a seat on the edge of the bed, leaning his back against the headboard. I scoot closer to him, leaning my head to his thigh. He gently caress my hair, making sure to not shirt the towel. I close my eyes and let myself fall back asleep.
