*Hey everyone! I'm back! My friend wrote this chapter because I was really overworked, so if the style is different from normal that's why. Shoutout to @iwillsitonyourplants for this idea!*

Togami pov.
I sat in my room, contemplating the days that have recently passed. The previous day I was in class and was allowing my mind to drift off into the wide oblivion that I am used to succumbing to. I found something that made me mildly uncomfortable. Makoto Naegi: the one person who has ever found his way into my thoughts and mind and my sanity itself. 
He was there and so was I. We were standing a few yards apart. That's when I realized it. He was what had been twisting my thoughts lately, the one I had developed romantic feelings for. I sighed and allowed my mind to wander once again. I was faced with the same situation, me, him, and a few yards of distance between us. This time I embraced the thoughts, I took a step closer. But I felt a deep pain in my lungs, it was unbearable and every step I took closer made the pain more unbearable until I could only see black. I snapped out of it and tried to breathe but the pain was too heavy for me to release or gain breath. I coughed and hacked in a fatal attempt to gain oxygen. That's when a small shower of deep red blood and light pink flower petals escaped from my mouth. I breathed deeply, allowing the anxiety to pass from my body as I just enjoyed the simple pleasure of breathing. I looked down at the mess I had left, this has been happening more frequently since I first had the daydream of Naegi. I know what it is, and I know that he is the cause. I don't blame him. I clean the blood and petals off the floor where I coughed them up. I just wish that I could tell him how I felt... I continue to let my mind wander to where I would end up if that dream happened. But as I said it's just a dream, one that will never happen due to my family's wealth and dignity that I must inherit and take into my own hands when the time comes. It would be unacceptable to marry a man, let alone someone not of a respected or well known family. I sigh and sit back down. I need to clear my head or else the disease will worsen and I risk death. Not that it matters anyway, none of my family truly cares and dear Mokoto will never know how I feel deep down. He probably wouldn't accept them anyways.
 
Naegi pov.
The past few days have been weird. Togami seems different, I mean he still has the same smug way about him but it seems as though he has become more distant and allows his mind to wander, which is unlike him in the sense that he’s always so down to earth and on task. Kyoko enters the dining hall as the second one to arrive. “Hello Naegi-kun.” She greeted me with a soft smile 
“Oh! Morning Kirigiri-san!” I smiled back at her. 
“Why do you always arrive so early Neagi?” she inquired. 
“I don't know, I guess I like saying hello to everyone in the morning!” I answered her question with another bright smile. 
Kirigiri sighed. “You're always so kind to everyone.” she said “I don’t know how you do it...” I giggled 
“It's just a talent I have! Even more so than my luck, I think!” 
“That's really sweet Naegi-kun.” She smiled brightly. Kyoko and I have become close to each other over the time we have been trapped. Which reminded me of a question I was a bit more than nervous to ask. “Kirigiri-san?” I said with a bit of a shaky voice. She turned her head to face me 
“Yes Naegi-kun? Is something bothering you?” 
“N-no!” I denied but failed in refraining from stuttering a bit. 
“If something is the matter then you can tell me. I believe we are close enough to do that, that is what ‘friends’ do correct?” I smiled 
“Exactly! That's what I wanted to talk to you about.” she looked at me with a peak of interest “I was wondering if we could go on a first name basis from now on. It's fine if you aren't comfortable with that, it was just an idea I had that was bothering me!” I rambled on till Kirigiri stopped me. 
“If you wish to call me by my given name I see nothing wrong with that, Makoto-kun.” she said with a smile. My eyes widened “Thank you so much Kyoko-san!” I yelled and without thinking I hugged her. I realized what I did. Kyoko doesn’t enjoy being touched. She has made that clear through the time I have known her. I quickly released her “I’m so sorry! I forgot! I was just excited that we were getting closer. I promise I won't ever do it again!” I apologized rapidly. Till once again Kyoko hushed me, 
“I forgive you Makoto-kun, but I'm also ok with you touching me a small amount, if you ask permission first.” she smiled at me. I smiled back, because I knew it was a great honor for Kyoko to say that. She never really let anyone close before. 
“Can i hug you Kyoko-san?” I questioned politely. She looked at me then nodded her head. I hugged her around the waist since she was more than a bit taller than me. She patted me on the head and smiled, it was then that I noticed Togami standing in the doorway, he rolled his eyes annoyed. 
“Get a room you two.” he said with more than a bit of disgust then went and sat down. I still hadn’t let go of Kyoko yet. That's when a look of fear and shock ran across Togami’s face as he ran out of the room with more urgency than I had ever seen him have. After he had gone Kyoko looked at me. 
“He was in more of a rush than he usually is. I believe you could say I am worried.” She said while looking at where he exited 
“Maybe he just really needed the restroom?” I suggested “That's probably it!” I smiled. Kyoko nodded in agreement, although i don’t think either of us believed it…
 
Togami pov
I didn’t make it to the restroom before I felt my legs give way and my lungs clog up. I fell to the ground in the middle of the hall, luckily it was early meaning almost no one was there. I coughed and gagged until the blood and petals exited my mouth. After I finished coughing, I gasped for air and just sat and caught my breath, I closed my eyes and tried to calm myself down. It just hurt so much to see them together and i couldn't stand it… I loved Naegi more than I loved myself, and to see him with her was more heartbreak than I could handle. I opened my eyes to look at the mess I made. It was repulsive, I couldn't stand it. He would never love someone who could carelessly dirty the halls with his sorrow. I had nothing to clean the blood and petals with and I wasn't feeling too good. I decided to just get up and walk. I don’t know where I was going, but I knew I was going far away from here. I wouldn't plague Neagi with my sorrows and I wouldn't affect anyone. No matter how much it hurt. I walked off into the library and hid in the room with all the police files and other assorted things and let my mind go blank as I passed out from the pain in my lungs and exhaustion. It hurt so much I couldn't move, not even in my dreams. 
I was in a dark room, paralyzed. I was forced to watch Neagi and Kirigiri be together. I felt my outer body start to cough and gag, but I was stuck in my mind. I tried to get myself up but it was no use. I assumed I would just die here. This had been going since I first saw Neagi. I did my research and most people don’t survive long with this illness unless surgically treated or loved back by the one they admired. I hadn’t told anyone. Looking at my current situation surgery wasn’t an option, and Neagi would never feel the same way I do. 
And maybe I just wanted to die. Maybe I didn't deserve to be alive. Yes that was it. I would die so Neagi wouldn't have to worry about me getting in the way. I let my mind relax as I felt my body start to suffocate and slowly die, it was only a matter of time till I would be released from this world that pains me so much.
 
I woke up where I had fallen asleep, the last thing I remember was passing out after seeing Neagi and Kirigiri. I sighed and looked down at the second mess I had left on the ground. I sighed and sat up, I wondered what time it was. I checked the watch that I had around my wrist. 6:30. I had been out for more than 10 hours. I felt my stomach rumble with angry hunger. I hadn't eaten in two days. There had been people at the dining hall every time and I just wanted to eat in peace, I curled up into a little ball. I was so pathetic. I couldn't do anything if I tried. Maybe I should just starve myself so I don't die of my disease. 
That was when something occurred to me. I shakaly stood back up. I had to find Monokuma. I walked out of the library and for some reason I led myself to the big red door. I didn’t know what this door was for but I had a strong feeling Monokuma would be there. I banged on it with all my might, which wasn’t much, until I could hear soft rustling on the other side. Monokuma opened the door “What do you need kiddo!? I’m kind of busy right now!” he growled 
“I was just wondering, if my disease kills me, will Neagi be the guilty one?'' I asked. Monokuma thought for a moment before smiling “Aww! Is poor little Byakuya worried about this one true love?” he laughed his horrible sounding laugh. “But I guess it technically would make him the culprit!” he laughed again before slamming the door in my face. I didn’t wish Neagi to die, or any of them for that matter, so my death was settled. I couldn't eat anything else and I had to hold out on death until the starvation set in. I locked myself in my room and vowed I would not come out ever again.
 
Naegi pov
I hadn’t seen Togami around anywhere in the past two days. The last time I saw him was when he rushed out of the dinning hall.  I knew he liked being alone and that I should give him space but something was off, I just knew it. I made up my mind to go look for him. After asking around, Hina said she saw him enter his dorm room two days ago and had not seen him since then. I went up and rang the bell on his door. I didn’t hear anything for a moment until I rang again, small noises could be heard right inside the door. “Hello Togami? It’s Naegi, you could have probably guessed. I know you're in there. I can hear you moving.” the noises stopped. “You haven't been out in two days. I don’t think you’ve eaten in that time span. You must be hungry? Could you come out and have a meal with me?” I asked but it was hopeless. I heard Togami get up and leave the door. I sighed and stood up 
“Hello Makoto-kun”. I turned around to see Kyoko behind me. “Is something wrong?” she asked while studying my facial expression 
“Yeah, I'm just worried about Togami…” I said solemnly. Kirigiri processed the information and nodded her head 
“Would you like a hug?” she asked me and she opened her arms to accept me into a nice hug.
 
Togami pov
I could feel it, the pain, the sorrows, the guilt and regret as I heard Kirigiri hug him. Neagi had noticed my absence and came to find me
Heartbreaking
I could feel it
 
Filling my lungs
 
 
I couldn't breath
 
 
 
I was dying
 
 
 
No I couldn't die or else he will to
 
 
But at that moment I just gave up 
 
 
I coughed and gagged more than I had ever. It was loud and I heard a commotion outside of Naegi and Kirigiri wondering if I was ok. Then I heard the door open and saw the blurry figures of Neagi and Kirigiri. I had left the door unlocked. Neagi rushed up to me, I was coughing up blood and petals in the corner of the room unable to move.
“Togami! Don’t worry, I'll get help!” Neagi cried and yelled something I couldn't hear to Kirigiri. Soon everyone was crowding in my room, Neagi held me in his arms as I clinged onto the last bit of life I had left. My lungs filled with blood and pettles and I felt my mind give way to the comfortable darkness. 
NO!
 I couldn't die like this or else he would as well. I fought harder for my life while trying to get my lungs cleared but it was no use. Neagi was crying and saying things to me but I couldn't understand any of them. Just as I was about to let go I felt a giant pain in my stomach then the darkness held me too tight for me to escape from.
 
 
Naegi pov
I felt his body go limp. “No…” I said quietly as I started to cry. “NO HE CAN’T BE GONE!! WAKE UP PLEASE!” I screamed, shaking his body but I already knew he was gone. Kyoko ran up to me and hugged me while feeling for his pulse. She looked at me sadly and shook her head, I started crying uncontrollably. Suddenly Monokuma appeared “A body has been discovered!” The monochrome bear took a moment to examine the body before screaming “GOD DAMN IT!” I looked at him, Togami’s body still in my arms. 
“What!?” I said in a very distressed voice. “This little shit went and starved himself!” 
I looked at him in surprise. “I thought his disease killed him!” I said “I didn’t even know he had it...” I cursed myself for being so oblivious. 
“He had the hots for you in particular Naegi!” Monokuma laughed a bit “H-he loved me? I was the reason this happened?” I looked at myself. 
“Yup! And he knew that if he died of the disease you would have to be blackened and he didn’t want to risk your death! So he went and killed himself!” Monokuma started cursing. “I was really looking forward to that execution too!” he whined 
“H-he killed himself to save everyone…..” I started hysterically crying “I’LL NEVER BE ABLE TO TELL HIM I LIKED HIM BACK!!!” I cried while hugging my deceased love. If only he had told me. We could have been happy. But now I felt myself filled with a great despair as I ran out of the room. I wish I hadn’t. I wish I stayed with his body, because when I went back, his room was locked and his body was gone. I sighed and went back to my room and laid down on the bed not bothering to turn on the light. I just layed there unable to cry, laugh, or be mad. I missed him. If only I had known. We could just be together, happy. I buried myself under the covers and tried to sleep but couldn't. 
The next morning I woke up with bags under my eyes, I hadn't gotten much rest. I didn’t feel like getting up to go eat and see everyone but I guess I had to. Without changing clothes, showering, or doing any self care at all I just left and headed to the dinning hall. I got there last, I was pretty late and everyone was worried about me, especially Kyoko. The moment I entered I didn't say anything and just laid my head down on the table and waited till everyone was ready to leave. People started to give me worried glances due to the fact that I hadn’t lifted my head.
 I just couldn't handle it. I started to not-so-quietly sob after most people had left. I felt a gentle hand on my back and I looked up with red irritated eyes that I had been rubbing tears out of all night. “Makoto-kun….” I just looked up into Kyoko’s eyes as she gave me a comforting look “Do you need a hug?” she asked without a second thought. I wrapped my arms around her and started to cry again. She did her best to comfort me, but I told her I just wanted to go back to my dorm. 
I sat down on the bed when I got there. I ran out of tears and I felt paralyzed. Is this what despair feels like? I sighed and turned to go take a shower when out of nowhere Monokuma showed up. Even though he caught me off guard, I sighed sadly. “What do you want?'' I said coldly. 
“Ouch! That was the cruelest greeting I've ever gotten! Does Makoto-kun not like me?” he asked. He was obviously trying to set me off. I tried to ignore him but I just couldn't 
“Don’t call me that!” I yelled. To which he just laughed and said 
“Look kid! I didn’t just come here to push your buttons. I came for a reason I thought you might have more than a bit of interest in!”
“And what would that be?”
“You’ll just have to go to the big red door!”
I didn’t think it was a good idea, but I didn’t have anything better to do, so I just nodded and followed him out of my room and down the halls. I passed a few people in the hall, all were looking at me worriedly as I followed Monokuma. Hina came up to me 
“Hey Neagi are you alright? Why are you following the bear?” she asked. I didn’t answer and just kept following him until we got to the door he was speaking of. 
“Wow! Any normal person would be scared out of their minds!” Monokuma exclaimed. I just looked at him solemnly. “Okay, so basically, as much as I love my students to take a head first dive into despair, I couldn't have my precious students dying of a disease I didn’t give them!” I wasn't following his words. “So if you’ll allow me to blindfold you I have a surprise!” I just leaned down and let him tie a piece of cloth over my eyes. I know I shouldn't have trusted that easily, but I didn’t care anyway. I felt Monokuma guide me into a place I didn't know. “Ok! Open your eyes!” I took the blindfold off and I looked to be in a hospital room. I looked in the corner to the bed and saw the surprise that Monokuma wanted me to see “Togami..” 
“O-oh! Hello Naegi…” I ran to him and gently hugged him while crying. 
“I missed you!” I cried and to my surprise he hugged me back. 
“Somehow Monokuma brought me back to life and surgically removed IT from my lungs.” I knew what he was referring to by “IT”. 
“Well i guess that's too bad.” I said sadly. He looked at me a little confused and hurt until I finished my sentence “because I love you back Byakuya Togami!” to which he just smiled.
