A Sinner's Love (Deadman Wonderland story)

Never Leaving Your Side

When I woke up, I sat up. I moved around and I gotten out of bed. The pain had went down, but its still there. I noticed that somebody left some food to eat at the table at the far end of the room. I went to go eat and took pain killers. Then I got out of the room. I checked my surroundings and the nurse at the end of the hallway. I then went to the nurse.

"Excuse me," I said. The nurse turned around and she looked like she's scared.

"Y-yes. How can I help you?" The nurse replied.

"Is noon yet? Chief warden told me that I can't leave my room until noon," I said. The nurse check the time on her watch.

"Its twelve forty. You can leave now if chief warden says you can leave by noon or later in the day," the nurse said.

"Thanks," I said. "How's my wound on my chest?"

"Come along," the nurse said. "Let's do a scanning on it." A few minutes had passed when I did the scanning. The nurse came back. "You are healing really fast. You have no ribs broken anymore. Your chest is going to be sore from the impact it took."

"Thanks," I said. The nurse nodded her head.

"You may leave now. Just don't do anything that involves combat that you Deamans do," the nurse said.

"How's Nagi?" I asked. I wonder what he lost this time.. I thought.

"He lost his tongue," the nurse said. "He was close to lose his right hand."

"Good enough," I said. I left the facility and went to my room. When I gotten into my room, Ganta was sleeping in my bed. I was still tired, I didn't dare to take off my boats, coat, and rings. I moved Ganta over and got into bed and slept.

~~4 Hours Later~~

"Senji," I faintly heard my name being called. I started to open my eyes and felt that somebody was hugging me from behind. I looked behind me and saw Ganta is the one that is hugging me.

"What's wrong?" I said tiredly. I moved to be facing Ganta. Ganta was sobbing quietly. I sat up. "What's wrong, Ganta? Did you have a nightmare?" Ganta sat up.

"Yeah, I had a nightmare," Ganta said. "It was a really bad one." I pulled Ganta into a hug. Ganta continue to cry into my chest. I rubbed his back until he stopped crying.

"Are you feeling better now?" I said. He got off my chest and nodded his head yes while wiping tears away. "That's good," I said with a smile. Ganta put his hand on my chest to touch it. Then he took it away.

"How's your chest?" Ganta asked. He moved closer and leaned against my shoulder. I looked up to see the ceiling.

"The nurse says I'm healing really fast. I don't have any broken ribs any more," I replied. "It's only going to be sore."

"Thats good," Ganta said. I looked down on him. He stopped crying. Thats good. He have calmed down.. I thought. I put my arm around him.

"What's was the nightmare about?" I aaked. "You can tell me if you want to." I ruffled his hair. There was silence for a minute or two.

"The nightmare was about how you were killed and the other Deadmans were laughing at me because they know I have no one to hide behind," Ganta said. "Then the chief warden took me to a room and made me watch the video of your death over and over. I didn't feel safe anymore. All I can think about was to spend time with you. When I got back to my room, I killed myself and I woke calling your name."

"It will be alright. I will never leave your side," I said. "I will always be with you. You're my little bro. I still haven't answered your questions."
