"DIE!?! YOU'RE DYING?" Hinata screeches, upon exiting the bathroom. "DON'T DIE PRETTY KING!"

"Dying? I thought that the feather thing was only a temporary and minor thing..." Daichi says, feeling both worried and angry. Didn't Suga want them to be friends? Didn't Suga want him to help him? If so, why didn't he tell him? Why didn't he tell him that the whole loosing feathers thing was serious?

Suga, despite the serious topic of conversation, can't help but laugh at Hinata's reaction. "I'm not dying! I'm just a little sick. In fact, I'm barely even sick. You know, I bet you could do something to make me feel better." His words are emitted from behind a smile... A small smile that should be reassuring. It isn't reassuring to Daichi. After all, not too long ago, he found Suga crying, on the ground, blaming himself for everything that is happening.

"Really?" Hinata squeaks, with a bright gleam in his eyes.

Suga nods a "yes", before explaining, "Actually, there are two things you can do. First, you don't have to walk the whole way... But walk with Kageyama in the woods a little bit. Just make sure that he is well enough to walk home. Afterwards, since you are reporter, please show the world how much damage the construction is doing. Show the world why they should care."

"I WILL! I HOPE THIS MAKES YOU FEEL BETTER!" Hinata shouts, before practically dragging Kageyama outside.

Just before Kageyama closes the door, Suga shouts, "Don't worry about me! I'm tougher than I look." His words earn him something rare... They earn him one of Kageyama's genuine smiles.

"You know, you never answered his question..." Daichi says suddenly, with a blush upon his cheeks. "Am I your mate?"

Never before has a question made Suga's heart beat as fast as it is beating now. "W-Well," he stammers, "I r-really like b-being with y-you... And y-you're cute." Soon after his confession, Suga hides his face behind his hands. "There, I said it! Now let's ignore what I said... There are more important things that we need to focus on."

Due to the fact that he is hiding his face, Suga can't see him... He can't see Daichi slowly walking closer to him, and wrapping his arms around him. But he can feel it... He can also feel the soft kiss that Daichi places upon his forehead. "True... But we should talk more later... We should talk about his more later. After all, I think you're beautiful. Oh we also need to talk about your feather thing... You may have fooled Kageyama, but you can't fool me."

"Okay," Suga whispers, all the while slowly lowering his hands. Almost immediately upon having his hands lowered, Daichi gazes down at him... He gazes down at him, and shifts his position so the very tips of their noses are touching.

"We'll make everything better... We'll save the forest, we'll save the animals, we'll save the crow-people, and we'll save you. So just trust me, okay? Trust me and feel free to tell me anything," Daichi says, with gaze filled with warmth. With a gaze filled with love. "Tell me things even if you think they'll make me mad... Just tell me. After all, I could never stay mad at you for long."

"Okay," Suga whispers, "Okay... Now lets get to work."

"This is it!" Suga shouts, jumping up from his seat on the couch. His outburst is so loud and unexpected that Daichi ends up spiting out his coffee. "There is a law about being unable do construction in areas that have this kind of tree," As Suga speaks, he points to a page in the book he is reading. "Apparently it is used to make some kind of important medicine. There is a whole bunch of these trees in the forest, Daichi! Although, they can be hard to see since they look a lot like another kind of tree..."

"That's great!" Daichi says, before grabbing the book and reading the page himself. It's true... What Suga said is true... Who knew that something as simple as a type of tree would be the key to the whole forest's survival? "Now we just need to get proof... And we need to show people the proof. We can save the forest!" Daichi, who had been struggling to do his job as a conservationist is happy. Who knew that all he needed was a little help? In his excitement, he makes some bold decisions... Such as the decision to pick Suga up, spin him around, and kiss him on the lips. Suga's lips are slightly chapped... But Daichi doesn't care. "Sorry, I didn't mean to kiss you so suddenly..."

"It's fine, Daichi," Suga says, with a chuckle. "I liked it." Before Daichi can respond, Suga kisses him. The kiss is brief but enjoyable... It is the best kiss that he has ever received. "Now let's get our evidence!"

CREAK.

The door opens.

An unexpected and unwanted visitor enters.

"You're not going anywhere."
