The Thorn among the Roses

Chapter 5: Yeah, my best friend..

Eijiro knocked on Bakugou's door, dressed in a grey tank-top and ripped black jeans, covered by a red flannel hoodie. He wore a headband across his forehead, since it was around the time when his hair wanted to fall. Bakugou emerged in a black tank-top and jeans. "Let's go." He said, closing his door behind him. "Do you have your Myki?" He looked at his redheaded friend. Kirishima nodded and they started to the elevator. "Tell me if you're going to be sick, ok?" Bakugou said as he pressed the button for ground floor. "I will, bro." Kirishima didn't make eye contact for the whole bus trip. They got off at their stop, Bakugou leading the way. Kiri's eyes widened. "Why are we at the hospital?" He looked at the ash blonde. "Because you're vomiting blood. God, how dense are you?" Bakugou sneered as they entered the waiting room. The boys waited for about half an hour before Kirishima started coughing. 'Shit. I can't let him see the petals!' Kiri thought, holding his hand to his mouth. Bakugou looked at Kiri. "Go to the fucking bathroom, you idiot." He demanded. Kiri obeyed, speed-walking to the public bathroom. He coughed into a toilet, making sure the stall was locked. Kirishima sighed. 'At least I didn't throw up.' He exited the bathroom, checking his appearance. Kirishima saw Bakugou at the desk and walked up to his bro, standing beside him. "-Here he is now." Katsuki gestured to Kirishima. The receptionist nodded. Kirishima and Bakugou were sent to a room and waited for a nurse to come by. Eijiro was anxious while Bakugou looked like he didn't want to be there. Kirishima was checked over. "So, what's been happening?" The nurse asked, he was a young man with tan skin. "He's been vomiting blood." Bakugou said for Kirishima. 'Yeah, just blood..' Kiri thought to himself. "That's what you know." The nurse said. "Kirishima?" He requested for the pale boy's perspective. "I've.." He glanced at Bakugou. "You want privacy?" Katsuki looked at his friend, like saying: 'Are you fucking serious?' Kirishima nodded. The ash blonde sighed and left the room, waiting outside on the seats on the side of the door. The nurse waited for Eijiro to continue. "I've been vomiting flowers.." The nurse was taken back. "Go on." He scribbled notes down onto a small notepad. "Usually before and after school. Only sometimes I get it at school." He scratched at his wrist nervously. "Have you been coughing up flowers, too?" He asked. Kiri nodded. "What kind?" He looked at the anxious boy. "Roses.." Kirishima muttered. The nurse nodded, putting his notebook down. "Take your shirt off for me." Kiri did so, feeling the cool draft on his bare chest. Kirishima lay down. "Tell me if it hurts." The nurse said, beginning to prod at Eijiro's stomach. The redhead coughed as the nurse got near his collar bones. The nurse stopped. "That hurts?" Kiri nodded. "Alright, you can put your shirt back on now." Kirishima did as told and Bakugou came back into the room. "Is he ok?" Katsuki jumped to conclusions. "We need to do a few tests." The nurse said. "You're both Yuuei students, correct?" The boy's nodded. "Alright." The nurse started. "Go sit in the seat over there, we'll start with a blood test." He indicated to the big chair in the corner of the room as he left. Kirishima walked over to the seat, sitting in it. The boy stifled another cough. The nurse came back, with equipment and a vomit bag. "Just incase," He said, handing the bag to Kiri. The nurse drew blood, Kirishima calm. They said that Kiri had to go get an MRI on the same night, just to be sure. Before going Kiri was sick, vomiting flowers. Bakugou was patting Kiri on the back. This episode was shorter than the last. Kirishima disposed of the bag and went in for his scan. "You two best friends?" One of the staff said to Bakugou, who was sitting in the seperate room with the MRI staff. Bakugou nodded. "I heard a bang come from his dorm and then he's on the floor of his bathroom, vomiting blood." The boy folded his arms. "He's getting paler everyday.." He muttered. "How long has this been going on for?" They asked. "A couple of weeks or so. He almost missed Homeroom the other day." The staff nodded and put up a finger, telling Bakugou to be quiet. "Kirishima are you ok?" The other staff member said into the mic. "Yep. Everything's ok." Eijiro's voice came through a small speaker. Relief washed over Bakugou when he heard his friend's voice. "You're really worried about him, huh?" The staff member who just checked on Kiri turned to Bakugou. The ash blonde gave them a small nod, looking the other way.
