3 Days Later Hiro's POV

3 days have passed ever since we found Kohana...

Riki: "Did she wake up yet?"

Hiro: "No..." I replied and brushed stray hair away from Kohana's face as she laid there still, in bed. I was kneeing right next to the bed.

Kenshi: "Probably from the amount of blood loss..."

Boss: "How about you Hiro? Are you alright?"

Hiro: "Yeah... I'm fine thanks."

Takkun: "You lost blood too you know..."

Hiro: "Yeah, and I don't regret it."

Riki: "Take a break man, we can wake you up when she wakes up."

Hiro: "I'm fine... I wanna be here when Kohana wakes up."

Kenshi: "At least eat something please Hiro... You haven't been eating for days..."

Hiro: "So hasn't Kohana."

All: "..."

Hiro: "... Sorry. I'll be down in a few minutes."

Riki: "Alright. We'll be downstairs waiting... Kay?"

Hiro: "Yeah..."

(As the guys walked out, they pat me on the shoulder with a small smile. I smiled back and watched as they left.)

Hiro: "(Sigh)" I gently took her hand. "Please open your eyes Kohana... Please..." I muttered and slowly lost conscious.

Kohana's POV

Kohana: "???" I slowly opened my eyes to find myself on a bed. Oh my god! Why am I on a bed?!?! I snapped my head to my left and saw Hiro sleeping peacefully while holding my hand. "Did he... Save me?" My eyes are filled with tears as I slowly peeled the blanket off of me and sat up. "Hiro?" He has dark rings under his eyes... I gently ran my thumb under his eyes. "I'm sorry..." I kissed his forehead and quietly got out of bed. I carefully placed the blanket over his shoulders.

Hiro: "Mmpf...." Hiro stirred.

Kohana: "Thank you for saving me." I whispered and opened the window.

(A/N: She has been training for years, she could jump out of the window... :3)

"I'm always causing trouble for you... I'm so sorry. It's best if I leave..." I turned towards the window and was about to walk out when a pair of strong arms circled around my waist. "(Gasp!)"

Hiro: "Don't go..."

Kohana: "Hiro..." I slowly placed my arms over his.

Hiro: "Please... Stay with me..."

Kohana: "I can't... I'm just a burden to you guys..." I sighed and slowly turned around, facing him.

Hiro: "You never were a burden. I never thought of you as a burden." He whispered and pecked my forehead. "I love you so much. It is only I to blame. I should've found you sooner."

Kohana: "Please don't blame yourself."

Hiro: "Please tell me... Were you kidnapped right after I dropped you off at your apartment?"

Kohana: "..."

Hiro: "Kohana?"

Kohana: "(Sigh)... Yes."

Hiro: "..." He sighed and closed his eyes. "I should've walked you in..."

Kohana: "Hiro---"

Hiro: "Damn it! I shouldn't have left you out of my sight when I know your father abuses you every chance he gets!"

Kohana: "Hiro please!"

Hiro: "I love you so much and yet I didn't do what a man is supposed to do! ... Protect the one he loves..."

Kohana: "You are not to blame---"

Hiro: "It's all my fault! I left you alone! In danger! Suffering... I should've found you sooner! I'm so useless! Stupid! It's my----!!!!!"

Kohana: I couldn't take it as Hiro kept talking badly about himself so I stood on my tip toes and crashed my lips against his. After a few seconds, I gently pulled away as I felt him calming down... "Please. None of this was your fault. In fact... I want to thank you for saving me." I smiled and started pulling away. "!"

Hiro: "..." Grabs the back of my neck and deepened the kiss. He pushes me against the wall and wrapped his arms tightly around me.

Kohana: "Mmmm..."

Hiro: "I love you Kohana."

Kohana: "I love you too Hiro." I smiled through my tears and returned his kiss...

No POV

Kenshi: "Should we really be spying on them?"

Riki: "Well, he did say that he'll be down in a couple of minutes... We gave him an hour... And he's doing THIS right now..."

Takuto: "Eewwwwwww..."

Boss: "Ah, young love."

Takuto: "Shut it beardy."

Boss: "Takkun... So mean..."

Kenshi: "Quiet guys, they might hear us..."

Riki: "Yeah..." He agreed and continued watching the scene through the crack of the door.

Kohana: "How did you guys find me?"

Hiro: "Takuto tracked your phone..."

Kohana: "My phone... I don't have it anymore..."

Hiro: "You don't?"

Kohana: "My... Father took it..."

Hiro: "Is that why...---"

Kohana: "He has been listening to your calls and messages..." She mumbled and looked away.

Hiro: "So I did get you in trouble..."

Kohana: "No... Of course not. He still would've punished me anyways for not fulfilling his missions..."

Hiro: "Still... I'm sorry."

Kohana: "Don't worry about it." She smiled and pecked him on the lips. "Don't blame yourself okay?"

Hiro: "...Alright..." He made a small smile and kissed her.

Riki: "O-Kay... We better go---"

Kenshi: "Hey don't shove!"

Boss: "Oww!"

Takuto: "LOOK OUT!!!!"

(Bam!)

All: "Ahh!"

Kohana: "Kyahh!?!?!"

Hiro: "The hell?"

Kenshi: "H-hi...."

Takuto: "... I didn't start this..."

Boss: "Heeeeyyyy! ♪♪♪!"

Riki: "Sup?"

Hiro: "Don't 'sup' us... How long were you guys watching?"

Kenshi: "Um... The whole thing?" He asks innocently.

Kohana: "(Blushes.)"

Hiro: "So you saw us...?"

Takuto: "Doing something gross? Yeah."

Hiro and Kohana: "!"

Riki: "Shut up man..."

Takuto: "You said you wanted to spy on them."

Riki: "Did not! I told you guys that we should check and make sure Hiro and Kohana's okay."

Kenshi: "Well, we didn't really walk in so we were technically spying..."

Riki: "Details details..." Riki mumbled while looking to the side.

Boss: "Hehe."

Takuto: "What are you laughing at? Beardy..."

Boss: "Takkun is so mean!"

Takkun: "Bleh." (Sticks out tongue.)

(CHATTER CHATTER)

Kohana: "Um... Pretty rowdy isn't it?"

Hiro: "Yep. Wanna go somewhere else?"

Kohana: "Hehe okay."

(Kohana and Hiro leaves, leaving the others still arguing/chatting.)
