Shota had fallen asleep in his gaudy yellow sleeping bag he blonde had got him many years ago. Soft breaths were being released from the ravenette's mouth as he laid in the floor of the hospital room.

Hizashi slowly tossing in the hospital bed and groaning silently. He slowly opened his eyes which couldn't see much, due to the fact he didn't have his glasses on at three moment, so everything was a blur. He saw a yellow blue on the floor and immediately recognized it and tried to call out to him but only a weak raspy sound escaped from his lips and caused him to fall into a coughing fit causing tears to well up in his chartreuse eyes.

Shota jumped in the bag as he heard the coughing which scared him a tad bit. He quickly climbed out of his bag and looked at Hizashi wide eyed.

"HIZASHI! How are you feeling ?!" He said rather loud as he rushed to the males bedside.

"Hizashi...?" He asked as he watched the blonde cough as he tried to answer what he had been asked.

Hizashi looked at Shota like he was going to cry. He slowly looked over the bandages on his arms then grabbed at his neck weakly that was also covered in the fabric. Then looking at the blur that was Shota, tears began streaming down his face as he pulled at the bandages on his neck.

Shota quickly pulled Hizashi's hands away from his neck and pulled him into a hug gently whispering " shhhh.... it'll be alright," Shota was honestly lying though, he didn't know if Hizashi was going to be alright, " all that matters is that you're alive ...." he said into Hizashi's ear as he held him against his chest.

Hizashi's gripped tightly onto Shota as tears continued to pour down his face from his eyes. A doctor walked in the room because he was alerted to the rising heart rate, indicated by the beeping of the monitor.

"Hizashi yamada correct...?" He asked as he interrupted Hizashi and Shota's bonding moment with his words.

Shota quickly pulled away from Hizashi, blushing, but still holding the males hand.

Hizashi just nodded at the doctor, then he looked away. He wasn't going to even attempt to talk now cause it hurt too much to do so. Even though his response was limited his mind was racing in fear and worry, ' what happened?! Why can't I talk?! What's wrong with me ?!'.

The doctor sighed as he looked at Hizashi, "I understand this is going to be painful to head, but now that you're awake I can tell you... yet it seems you already know the jist of it. Mr.Yamada, after the villain attack yesterday you were shot in your throat, it almost killed you and would have if it hit your carotid artery..." he paused for a moment and looked sorrowfully ya Hizashi, who he knew was the voice hero on top of this, " it severely damaged your vocal chords and if we didn't remove them you would have died. I'm sorry this happened and I'm sorry you have to hear this but you'll never be able to speak again, we did all we could to the best of our abilities," then he sighed and looked up at Hizashi for his reaction.

Hizashi had gone pale. He didn't know what to say, even though he couldn't talk at all. He used his voice for everything. He was a teacher, radio host, and a pro hero, he used his voice for everything and it helped him express who he was. He wasn't Hizashi Yamada without it. Tears began to fall from his eyes and down his face as he cried leaning against Shota, who was struggling to hold tears back for his friend.

"A-are you serious..?" Shota asked astonished by what the doctor had said. He protectively held onto the blonde like a child onto a blanket.

The doctor sighed once again and looked at them giving a small nod, " yes sadly I am...."

The doctor took a seat and clasp his hands under his chin, " sir " he was now directing his words at Shota " Could you come out the room with me for a second?"

Shota sighed as he reluctantly let go of Hizashi and stood up, walking out of the room with the doctor.

Once they are out of the room Shota looked at the doctor, " so any more bad news you ray of sunshine,"

" Oh no-" he stated shaking his head a bit and looked at Shota " it seems that this will hurt him a great deal, so-"

He was then interrupted by Shota yelling " OF COURSE THIS IS GONNA AFFECT HIM A GREAT DEAL! HE IS PRESENT MIC FOR GOD'S SAKE!" He was furious the doctor, to him, was making it seem like it was nothing.

"Sir-" the doctor tired to speak again.

"NO DON'T SIR ME!" He yelled as his hair stood on end and his tired eyes glowed red.

"Sir I'm just asking you if you'll take care of him !" He shouted a bit angry " Please stop!"

Shota had tears in his eyes " O-oh... I ...um...." he slowly stammered in embarrassment, he rubbed the back of his neck.

" I'm sorry..." he murmured as he walked back in the room, his eyes drifting to Hizashi.

"Hey..." he did as he sat on the bed and sighed as he wiped some of Hizashi's tears which were still streaming down his face.

Hizashi leaned into Shota's touch, he was hurt, devastated, he was distraught, and he didn't know what to do anymore.

"I'll take care of you..." he murmured as he looked into Hizashi's green eyes.
