Someone, please save me.... (Shinkai)

Chapter 20

His eyes slowly opened and he soon remembered again about the kiss and all. His cheeks instantly flushed. God, that came unexpectedly. He felt his body in pain and he let out a sigh. It made him remember that he was alive. Geeze he was starting again with his thoughts. It wasn't changing that he still sometimes felt that numb feeling.

Sometimes he still felt dead, at least he knew that he had people who cared for him. Or did they really? There where sometimes thoughts that thought they were acting. It was sometimes almost impossible to believe that people really cared for him. And Kaito knew that his two critics knew this. They know that he sometimes had these thoughts. Kaito was pretty sure that they try to make him feel instantly better when they notice this.

"Kaito?"

His thoughts came to halt and he turned his head towards Saguru who frowned at him. 

"So what did you think about? You were frowning and your face stopped showing any kind of emotions. You know you are lucky that Shinichi went somewhere for a case."

He blinked at this, as soon his lips turned into a thin line. Knowing too well that the brit wouldn't like that. But he promised himself not to hide it from them. 

"I uh..."

The blond waited patiently for him to continue.

"You know sometimes I feel like you just put an act up. Sometimes I feel like you don't care really for me. I just can't help feeling like this."

Saguru smiled softly and he had a knowing look on him. As well as giving a ruffle through his hair.

"Shinichi and I did know this and never pointed it out. We waited that you would tell us that. Both of us knew that you would block off when we would force you to talk about it."

That made Kaito let out a sigh. Of course, they knew. He was lucky to have friends like this. It made him feel warmth going through him.

"Kaito listen here, we never would act. Why should we? Both Shinichi and myself like you and the other even loves you. I would advise you to go to a therapist. I don't think that we alone will be enough."

At the mentioning of Shinichi, his cheeks heated up. The last part came a bit of a surprise to him, that the other would say this. But at the same time, it wasn't that much of a surprise. The other was a detective and knew too well how stuff like that can affect someone. Kaito knew this and it was clear to him that he needed help. It was for the best, after all, he wanted to be better. 

"I um will try it I guess. I can't really lose anything going to one."

The other teen looked slightly surprised at this and soon relived.

"Good to know that we are on the same pace. I thought you wouldn't agree."

That made sense to him, maybe in the past, he wouldn't have agreed to it. That changed as he knows that he needed help, but he couldn't as the problems came not just from private but from his time as a thief.

"When you would have asked me that six months ago, I wouldn't have agreed or way in the past. I couldn't go to a therapist as you and I know that it wasn't just private but as well my other persona."

The other teen let out a sigh and going through his hair. 

"Yeah, now it should be alright. How are you? Did you sleep well?"

That made him hum as he thought about how he was and furrowed his brows slightly. He was feeling the pain, but this wasn't really the issue here it was his feelings which were just everywhere. He felt relatively calm, but there was something which bugged him, the last time he got kidnapped he still couldn't remember really much after entering that cafe.

"I did sleep well. My body is slightly in pain, but it is more my emotions which are in turmoil. I still can't remember much about that day I got kidnapped, and we hadn't had time to talk about this. When will Shinichi come back? I really need to talk to him and apologize that I dozed off on him."

He felt sheepish now, that he just fell asleep on the other teen. The blond snorted slightly at this and chuckled.

"I think the world is ending. You apologizing about something you did? Wow, are you really the Kaito I knew? And about the other kidnapping was related to a different group. Right now I can't say much, but when I know more I will tell you."

That made him pout as he huffed out. The last part made him a nod and wondering was that as big as the other case? He would have to wait, and wouldn't ask anymore.

"Meanie, and yes I am still Kaito."

He could feel from the latter that amusement radiating from Saguru. Which made his pout grow more. It was precisely then that the door opened and the parents of Saguru walked in. Both paused at the scene and had a questioning eyebrow up.

"Did something happen?"

Saguru grinned at his parents and Kaito could tell that the other right now had a field trip.

"Don't worry about it, I am just teasing him about something."

That made the two adults chuckle softly as they closed the door behind them.

"The kudos had to get out of the country sadly, something world related. So how are you?"

The two adults sat down on two other chairs, both afterward ruffled his hair and waited patiently for him to answer.

"I feel the pain and uh my emotions are a bit everywhere."

The two adults had eye contact for a moment and he could tell that the two are worried for him. 

"After getting out of that hospital, I will get myself help. Maybe one of you two will have a good therapist for me."

That took both adults by surprise. Kaito could tell that they were having a silent conversation.

"I would have someone in mind. He is someone who is trustworthy and he works deeply with the police together. He had many people who went through something similar like you did."

It wasn't that much of a surprise that he would choose someone who workes with the police together. It made sense, as he went through something like that after all getting shot was something which Police officer sometimes had to deal with.

"As long as he helps me, I don't mind going."

The next one who talked was the mother of Saguru.

"I am glad that you choose to get help. We didn't want to force you. So to a different topic, did you two finally had the balls to tell each other that you two like each other?"

That made him splutter as his face lit up in a bright shade as he opened his mouth but closed it again. How the female knew was a mystery to him and it was making a glance at Hakuba who shrugged. 

(* >ω<)=3ACHOOE!

It seems that Mrs. Hakuba knew. Hehe, mothers are precisive.  I hope you enjoyed it and I love to see you all in the next chapter, bye.~
