Kiibos POV

               Living with kokichi in a wheelchair wasn't that bad. The worst it could be was the wheelchair closed sometimes when I was putting him in the chair.
              Although he had been reteaching himself how to was and was making baby steps with my help.
              This whole fiasco made me realize that I could wake up one day and he would just be gone.
               I had just pushed kokichi up to the table for breakfast, and grabbed Shuichi from his chair. He was startled but I pulled him outside. "Shuichi I need your help with something" I stated while holding him by the shoulders. "What is it?" His voice was shaking a bit.
                  I whispered something into his ear which caused the other to gasp. "Kiibo that's adorable of course I will help you!" Shuichi said excited. I sighed with relief.
                   "I'm gonna wait to do it until he can walk again.. so we have a couple of weeks to plan" I said and he nodded. "Meet me in the library after breakfast... I know kokichi is supposed to be with Angie as she was talking about it excitedly at breakfast" Shuichi responds and I nod.
                     "I'm gonna get us some help though..... two who know way more about this than we do" he laughed. I nodded "just don't tell everyone" I said. He nods and we head back in.
                    Kirumi had served breakfast already by the time we made it.
                   After breakfast Angie grabbed kokichi and left. I was walking to the library to meet with Shuichi. He said he would be late while leaving breakfast.
     
                   I was sitting in the library reading when somebody slammed their hand on the table. "YOUR PLANNING TO GET MA-" Nagito yelled out before Hajime covered his mouth. "Yeah" I responded.
                  "I told you I was gonna be late cause I had to get these two" Shuichi states. I nodded only now realizing the silver ring on Hajimes ring finger. And the gold one on Nagitos finger.
                  I was confused when they told me about the traditional weddings. Nagito could barely keep down his excitement, but we eventually found the perfect stuff. It would be up to kokichi and I for the wedding, but for now I had my engagement plan.
                  I had to go out and buy a ring still. I was overjoyed by how easy this would be.
                   Although I had to get his ring size. That would be easy for me being a robot.

                   It was during the night time cycle and apparently Kokichi was exhausted after his day with Angie, because he didn't wake up when I put a ring sizer on him. I found out that he was a size 9 haha tiny fingers.
                     It was kinda adorable at him having small fingers.

                      The next morning he was still passed out. He was snuggled into my chest and I couldn't get him off so I decided to skip breakfast today. When he woke up it was noon. He managed to get out of bed by himself and walk to two steps to his wheelchair by leaning on the wall.
                 I pulled him into a hug about it. "Angie was helping Mikan with some physical therapy. Now I can walk a few steps on my own" he explained happily. "I have to go back to it tomorrow though" he said and I nodded. I didn't care wether his time was without me as long as he got the treatment he needed.
                  We spent all day playing tiny games in out rooms. I was making subtle hints at my plans the whole time but he was oblivious. "What's your 4th favorite color?" I asked "hmm.... White" he answered me. "Why?" I asked again "cause it reminds me of you" he said I ruffled his hair and told him to stop being sappy.
                 "Oh I want to check Naegi progress with his talent" he said around 3 in the afternoon. I got up and pushed him in his chair to Naegis room. He knocked on the door and when Naegi opened the door he looked questioningly at us. "I wanted to track your progress again" kokichi said and Naegi nodded.
              
              After a very long test it turned out that Naegi had full control of his new ability, and had been getting help from Hajime to deal with the stress of it.  "Oh this is great" kokichi started "I mean it's not but at least your feeling better about it" kokichi ended.

Kokichi's POV

                   "Hey Kiibo can you leave for a second?" Naegi asked and Kiibo nodded and left. "What's up?" I asked him "I have been noticing something different about Kiibos behavior recently... he seems more jumpy than normal.. just keep an eye on him" Naegi answers and I nod.
                   "He was probably worried cause I went off without him yesterday without telling him why" I concluded. He nodded.
              "So how long do you think it will take for you to be able to stand for a couple of minutes without help?" Kiibo asked me after I left.
                 "Probably next week" I smiled. He nodded with a smile  "that's good" he smiled back.  It was a peaceful silence on the trip back to our room. Until... we ran into gonta.
                  "Gonta is sorry" he said after he lightly bumped my wheelchair. "No it's alright accidents happen" I respond. Gonta said a thanks before leaving.
                 "Hey Kiibo you okay?" I asked after he was quite again. The peace went sour. "Yeah just worried" "oh o-okay" I respond to him. He turned a wrong corner. I was suspicious immediately. I secretly pulled out my pocket knife.
                    I looked up to Kiibo to see his blue eyes now a sickening pink. I fought my chair out of his hands and semi wrestled him to the ground after hopping out of it.
                The knife against Kiibos neck I yelled for anyone who could hear me. It was rantaro who ran up. He was surprised "something is wrong" I stated and he nodded.
