Donde Estas Corazon

Ven Regresa por Mi

Thirty hours of gameplay, that's all he had done?! Kyou decided he couldn't
just whip through the levels of this game, how unfortunate he thought. He
picked up the case laying next to him and read the part about two different
scenarios and over a hundred fifty hours of gameplay. It was time to move
on to a different game, preferably the newer one if he was going to be subject
to this much hassle.

He tossed the controller to the side and it landed silently on the couch.
Sighing, ruby eyes shifted to the clock and he saw that almost four hours
had vanished into the annals of videogamedom. It slightly irked the neko that
he wasn't going to finish the game, but really, a ps1 game of this magnitude
wasn't worth it when he could go get the next in the series made for the ps2
instead.

"Stupid game…I should yell at Haru for getting it." Kyou grumbled,
glancing at the time again.

Another hour and Haru's shift would be over. Kyou wondered what Haru would
want for dinner. The neko didn't feel up to making dinner, mostly because he
would have to go to the store since he needed to restock the supply, and why
walk when Haru could just drive him there later? Kyou got up, deciding to
order in for dinner, Haru could take him to the store tomorrow, the neko rationalized.

***

"Give me that gun you idiot!" Was the command from chief of police
to the shell-shocked new officer after arriving on the scene. The gun was
handed over without a word of protest and the chief stormed away to question
the ballistic team.

When the result was finalized, the bullets from the suspect's body and the
one that had been lodged in the back of the ushi's Kevlar vest were confirmed
to be from the gun the chief had put in an evidence bag.

The chief sneered, the new officer wouldn't or couldn't tell his side of
the story, and there was no one else on the scene when the shooting occurred.
To the chief, it was a clear cut case. He joined the officer who had done
the shooting once again, already knowing what he needed to say.

The officer, who was sitting in the back of a patrol car, panned wide eyes
to the chief when he returned. "Sir…I-

He was silenced with an abrupt wave of the chief's hand. "You are disbarred
from the police force. You will turn in all the articles you were supplied
and clean out your locker by the end of the day tomorrow."

Nodding silently, the officer hung his head. The chief wasn't quite done
with him though. "And, you better pray that officer Sohma survives, otherwise
you'll be up on charges for murder one." The chief leaned closer to the
stricken man. "It won't go well for you either, trust me on that."

The man watched with glossy eyes as the chief went back to the crime scene,
barking orders as he moved. Eyes turned to the ambulance when the doors slammed
shut on the back of the vehicle; it drove away with sirens blaring.

He continued to watch, until the lights of the ambulance couldn't be seen
and the siren faded in the distance.

***

Kyou was laying on the couch counting the ceiling tiles for the nineteenth
time. Or was it the twentieth? It didn't matter anyway, since Haru still wasn't
home.

The neko wanted to look at the clock again, but every time he did it caused
him to feel nauseous. Why isn't he home yet? The neko worried, clasping his
hands over his stomach and taking a deep breath to calm himself.

Crimson eyes returned to the clock and the neko felt his heart jump. It was
getting too late; maybe he should call the station. Sometimes Haru had paperwork
to complete that would hold him over. Not this late though, the neko reminded
himself.

By this point, all the circumstances for the ushi's absence had cycled through
the neko's anxious mind. The worst of them, Kyou had lingered on for only
a moment, those were not options he could deal with. The neko had known
that there would be times like this he would have to acknowledge, but knowing
that didn't make it any easier.

Crossing his arms over his face, Kyou squeezed his eyes shut as he felt tears
stinging the dry orbs. "Just come home…" he whispered into
the empty room.

The neko bit his lower lip when he silently told himself that he wouldn't
yell at Haru for getting the ps1 game. Just so long as the ushi finally walked
through that door, that was what he really needed to happen right now,
ran through Kyou's mind.

***

The chief had finished at the scene of the raid and was glad to hear that
there weren't any other fatalities other than the one suspect. A couple officers
were receiving treatment for minor wounds and he had one at the hospital in
serious condition.

Getting into his cruiser, the chief willed for the fatality number to stay
at one. Hell even that death shouldn't have happened! Fuming, he jotted down
a note to find out how the disbarred officer even got on the force. It screamed
for an internal investigation into the matter. One of his officer's lives
was hanging in the balance because of someone's actions, and he would know
who was responsible and they would be held as accountable as the idiot who
had done the shooting.

Driving in the direction of the hospital Haru had been taken to, the chief
prayed that he wouldn't have to deliver any sobering news to his officers
orange haired partner.

***

"Thank you, yes I understand." Kyou finished, reseating the phone
in its cradle.

The station hadn't been able to tell him anything except that they would
call him as soon as they had word on the ushi's whereabouts. Kyou unsuccessfully
tried to mute the little voice in the back of his mind that was telling him
that the dispatcher did know something, and she didn't want to tell
him.

The neko returned to the couch and curled up, wrapping his arms around his
knees. There wasn't going to be anyone knocking at his door, Kyou told himself,
Haru would be home and there was no alternative to that fact.

Angrily he brushed tears away that spoke differently of what he was commanding
himself to believe. Untouched homework lay on the coffee table in front of
him. The neko gazed at it blankly, there was no way he was touching that tonight,
he thought. Homework, school, the blasted ps2 came second to his husbands
welfare, all trivial things if he didn't have Haru safe at home with him.

The shrill call of the phone sounded, causing Kyou to catch his breath. Please
let it be what I need to hear looped repeatedly in the neko's mind as
he picked up the phone again.

Shigure greeted him instantly, "Kyou-kun! Is Ha-

"Can't talk right now! I'll call you back later!" The neko hurriedly
related, slamming the phone down.

Staring at the phone after his actions, Kyou realized that he had sounded
abjectly worried. Running his fingers through his short hair, he knew he needed
something to take his mind off the thoughts he was having.

The neko flipped through the cd's stacked neatly in the entertainment stand.
One he had bought when he took Spanish last semester caught his eye and he
put it on, sitting down in front of the cd player.

Exactly three words were sung via the speakers and the cd was turned off.
That was not a good idea, Kyou reprimanded himself.

Kyou raised his eyes to the clock on the dvd player again. They told him
in their white luminescent numbers that it was five of two in the morning.
Momentarily the neko remembered that Shigure's court appearance was scheduled
for tomorrow. So that's why the inu had called that late, the neko realized.

So Shigure had called at two in the morning to try and get Haru to not show
up at court, ruby eyes narrowed in fury, where there was a chance the ushi
wasn't…

Kyou stopped himself before his thoughts went any farther. He felt his hands
trembling and a few more tears roll over his cheeks. "Where are you love?"
Kyou whispered.

***

The minutes dragged by for the neko. Each change of the time increased the
fear in Kyou's heart.

It was almost three in the morning now, and still no word from the station.
Kyou wanted to call them again and demand to know what the hell happened,
but in truth he was too scared to do that. If something serious did happen,
it was better he be kept in the dark for now, he thought.

But it was his husband this was concerning! He had a right
to know damnit!

The neko picked up the phone and started dialing the number for the station.
When he got to the last number, there was a heavy knock on the door.

No. Kyou's thoughts stopped in their tracks and the phone was put
down with a shaking hand.

Don't answer that. The neko's brain told him, his feet already moving
on their own accord to the door.

A tanned hand came to rest on the doorknob and the neko steeled himself,
taking a deep breath before opening the door. Unbidden tears immediately began
falling over his cheeks as soon as he opened it.

"Sorry I'm late kitten."

***

The chief watched with a tiny smile from his cruiser as the orange haired
boy clung to his husband, bawling openly.

He had driven the ushi home after being released from the hospital. The black
and white haired officer shouldn't have been released after sustaining
that injury, but as soon as he could talk again Haru had demanded to go home.

The chief had forgotten his cell phone in his haste to get to the hospital,
and the ushi's belongings had been returned to the station so there had been
no way to call ahead. He realized that he could have called dispatch to relay
the message that everything was fine, but it was only a short drive back to
Haru's apartment. He could have even called at the hospital, but that notion
struck him only after the fact.

After the door had closed, the chief started back to the station to fill
out the huge report that would be required. It had been a long night, but
at least everything had turned out good.

***

After getting the ushi situated on the couch, Kyou placed his hand lightly
over the sling that held Haru's right arm to his side. "What happened?"
The neko whispered, snuggling himself against the ushi's undamaged side.

Haru wrapped his good arm around the neko and rubbed his cheek against Kyou's
ginger hair. He had come very close to never seeing his beautiful kitten
again, the ushi thought. "Got shot, tell you about it tomorrow?"

Kyou nodded against the ushi's chest. It was obvious that his husband was
having some trouble talking and they both really needed rest right now.

Tilting his face up, Kyou brought his lips to Haru's, and when he was granted
entry to the ushi's warm mouth, leisurely rubbed his tongue against Haru's.
They parted when Kyou's mind demanded one last bit of information. "Are
you going to be okay?"

Gray eyes didn't need to look far to see the extreme worry in the neko's
eyes. A light smile changed the worry to confusion. Haru couldn't help but
smile, there was such profound love for him in those ruby eyes.

Pressing his lips to Kyou's forehead, Haru mouthed a silent yes.
