Tues. cont.
"He's going to be fine. Just a cut and some bruising but, I'm not sure you should go in Nathan," Mr.Norio stood outside of the infirmary with Ren and Nathan.
"But sir," Nathan starts.
"I just don't think it's a good idea. I'm not saying you can't," Mr.Norio sighs.
"Ok, thank you sir," Nathan nods and starts into the room where Takeshi was. He sat on one of the infirmary beds, a white bandage wrapped around his head. Eclipse was sitting in a chair nearby with Maiman lying next to Takeshi on the bed.
"Hey, I'm sorry man, I didn't…" Nathan starts.
"Don't worry about it," Takeshi suddenly replies, his back to them as he stares out of the window.
"I didn't mean for it to get like this. I didn't mean for you to get hurt. I…" Nathan starts again.
"I said it's fine. Really. It's good. We're good," Takeshi cuts him off again.
"But you got hurt, like, really bad," Nathan studies him.
"Nathan," Takeshi's voice is calm. Calmer than any of them have ever heard. "It really is ok. Please, don't worry about it. I'll be fine."
"Well, I'm still sorry," Nathan sighs.
"Takeshi. You should really lay back down," Eclipse sighs.
"No, it's ok," Takeshi lets out a small laugh before starting to stand up. His legs give out as he passes out again, sending him to the floor. Nathan rushes towards him and helps him get back onto the bed.
"Sorry, I'm such a burden," Takeshi sighs as he comes back to.
"No, you're fine," Nathan gives him a small smile.
"Takeshi you need to rest, ok? That's the third time you've tried getting up," Eclipse lets out an annoyed sigh.
"Yeah, I guess you're right," Takeshi leans his head back as he closes his eyes. After a few minutes, he falls asleep.
"I'll stay for a few minutes, to make sure he doesn't get back up," Nathan looks at Eclipse who nods in response.
"Thank you," Eclipse sighs tiredly.
"Are you ok with that Ren?" Nathan looks at Ren who nods in response.
"Yeah, that's fine," Ren's eyes are on Takeshi.
"Eclipse, can I talk to you in the hall?" Ren looks at Eclipse after a few minutes who nods and stands up.
"I'll be right back," Eclipse walks over to Takeshi and kisses him on the cheek before turning and walking out of the room with Ren.
"Did that just happen?" She looks at Eclipse after they close the door.
"Did what just happen?" Eclipse raises an eyebrow.
"Did, that fight…" Ren starts.
"Yeah, that fight happened," Eclipse sighs.
"I feel horrible. Why do I feel horrible?" Ren looks at her.
"You feel horrible?" Eclipse asks in confusion.
"I feel horrible for that. I… I enjoyed it at first. I really did. But. Now? I feel horrible for enjoying it. I mean, I still hate him for everything but…" Ren lets out a long, stressed sigh.
"Look, you guys have been through a lot so it's normal. Especially the whole thing with Oliver and Vena…" Eclipse sighs.
"Vena? Who's Vena?" Ren looks at her in confusion.
"You don't know about Vena?" Eclipse studies her.
"No. I have no idea who Vena is. Who is she? And what whole thing with her?" Ren studies her back.
"If you don't know then I'm not saying. That's something for Takeshi to explain," Eclipse shakes her head.
"What? Why not?" Ren begins to become slightly irritated.
"I can't. I just can't. That's a him thing," Eclipse continues to shake her head before starting back into the room.
"Eclipse!" Ren starts after her but then lets out a long sigh and calms herself down.
