🥀"I would fight for you, if you would fight for me."🥀

"Where could he be? It's not like him to stray from the group. Shirabu hates getting lost."

Suga and Semi nervously scanned the areas around them. Sometime during their walk to the hospital, Shirabu had apparently wandered off. Suga wasn't too worried though. He knew Shirabu was smart, and he'd be fine wherever he was.

Semi on the other hand, was a nervous wreck, frantically looking around and occasionally asking people if they've seen the second year. Suga could tell that Semi was uneasy. He felt bad, feeling that it was partially his fault for stressing Semi out, with his whole episode from the night before.

"Hey cuz, it's okay! We both know Shirabu's a smart boy. Plus, who would really want to take Shirabu? I'm sure they'd bring him back," Suga said as he placed his arm around Semi's shoulder.

The sudden contact made Semi flinch, but he instantly relaxed as he let out a sigh.

"I know, it's just that...I just worry about him. Especially with everything going on with his parents, and his "boyfriend," I just worry about his mental health," Semi confessed as he leaned up against a tree. Suga shook his head.

"Well I worry about yours, dipshit," he scolded as he smacked the back of Semi's head. "You care about other people so much, especially me and Shirabu. And I know it's partially my fault. I should be able to handle my own fucked up emotions. But I appreciate you. For everything," Suga spoke as he continued to scan the area for Shirabu. "I just don't want you to get too stressed. Can't have you dying on me early."

"Right back at ya cuzzo," Semi responded as they both laughed. No matter how old they got, they were still close as ever.

Suddenly, Semi got a notification on his phone. As he opened it, his eyes widened.

"What? What's wrong? Is it Shirabu?" Suga asked frantically.

Semi held the phone up to Suga's face so he could read it.

From: Shirababy💙

I need you and Suga to come get me. Please. I'm in the north bathrooms. But please hurry.

Without speaking, Suga and Semi both took off, sprinting to the north bathrooms. Semi's mind raced as he tried to convince himself that everything was okay. 'Yeah, everything's fine. He text me, so he's alive. We'll make it in time."

Suga saw the distressed look on Semi's face and picked up his pace, with him being shorter than Semi, he was much slower. Plus Semi also ran track as well as participating in volleyball, so he was incredibly fast.

When they reached the bathrooms, Semi went to swing open the door when Suga held his arm out and stopped him. He looked at Semi and held a finger to his lips, and then pointed to his ear, gesturing for him to listen.

The both leaned closer to the door. A deep but sharp voice echoed through the bathrooms.

"Come out, come out wherever you are, Booboo. I know you're in here. You can't hide from me."

Semi and Suga slowly snuck in and looked around the corner. A tall, tan male with auburn hair crept through the bathroom, looking under the stalls as he gently pressed on each door to check for the lock.

"That's Haruki, Shirabu's so called "boyfriend," Semi whispered to Suga. "He's extremely strong. Can you text Daichi or someone? Just in case things get physical, because I know I can't handle him on my own."

"I'm sure that won't be necessary," Suga said, as he always saw the best in everyone and tried to stray away from violence. They watched as he reached a middle stall, and looked under it. There were no feet, but he lightly pressed on it, and it didn't budge.

"Looks like our game of hide and seek is over Booboo!" he said as he forcefully threw his body into the stall door, breaking it off his hinges. Suga heard Shirabu yelp at the sudden entry and he stepped into view.

"Stop please! Don't hurt him!"

"And who the hell are you pretty boy?" Haruki asked with a devilish smirk on his face.

"I- umm we're his fr-"

"We're his family," Semi stated as he stepped into view as well.

"Woah there's two of you! Well, well, well Booboo. You didn't tell me you had such a good looking family behind you. I would've long ago dropped your scrawny ass."

"Don't you dare touch them Haruki!" Shirabu snapped. "You can do what you want to me, but leave the-"

"SILENCE!" Haruki screamed as he slammed his fist into the stall. The sounds collided and boomed throughout the entire bathroom. Suga quickly realized Semi was right. This man was clearly unstable, and probably dangerous. They needed help, fast.

Suga reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone. He quickly clicked on his first contact, which was luckily Tanaka. When Tanaka picked up, Suga barely had time to speak before-

"Hey! What the fuck are you doing?!" Haruki snapped as he pulled out his pocket knife and threw it right a Suga's head. Suga braced for the sharp object, but, nothing hit him. He opens his eyes to see Semi's arm in front of his face, with the knife stuck in the other side.

"Run Suga! Go now!" Semi cried, as he pulled the blue blade out of his arm and onto the ground.

Suga took off out of the bathrooms. Shirabu watched in horror as Semi and Haruki stood face to face several feet apart. 'I'm going to lose my Semi.' was all Shirabu could think about as he watched Semi rush Haruki.

Even though he was smaller and weaker than Haruki, Semi was a smart fighter. He knew when to dodge, when to run, and where to hit. He ducked, missing Haruki's first swing, and was able to retaliate with his own.

Shirabu crawled to the bathroom door as they fought, when suddenly the bathroom door swung open. Shirabu raised up only to be greeted with Oikawa and Makki.

"What the he-"

Oikawa's sentence was cut off when Semi collapsed to the floor.

"Shirabu, go while you still ca-"

Semi was also cut off by Haruki stepping on his neck.

"I think it's about time you shut the fuck up. I also think it's about time I had my own fun. Hey Barbie, lock the door." He gestured towards Makki, who was still standing by the door. Makki placed his hand on the handle, and quickly swung the door open.

"OIKAWA. GET SHIRABU OUT OF HERE!" both Semi and Makki yelled in tandem. Oikawa grabbed Shirabu's hand and sped out of the bathroom, ignoring Shirabu's cries for Semi.

Makki closed the door and locked it.

"It's just you and me now Haruki. Let's have your fun."

a/n: first off, before we talk about anything else, HAPPY BIRTHDAY OIKAWA! I cannot even begin to express how much I love him. His character has honestly gotten me through some really rough times and I can't wait to include him in future stories. He deserves the world. Anyway, I won't say much else. The next chapter should be out right after this. I hope you enjoyed it! Thanks for reading! Stay trippy babes!💚🛸
