"...I have to admit," Matt told Naveen, "That's the one thing to top your Jesus act there."
|
There was a moment of silence, before everyone laughed.
|
"...What about M?" Oliver asked as while everyone was still in the middle of their laughter- looking around almost suspiciously.
|
Naveen's laughter died sharply and Next shot Oliver a small glare. Near's brother lowered his eyes, his smile completely gone.
"You're an idiot, Oliver," Linda informed as she stepped up. "L-Linda-!" Next gasped in surprise, turning around. He'd forgotten she was even at the hospital, still. "You don't even know what we're talking about-!" One snapped, defensively. "I know," Linda informed. "I just know Oliver is a-..." She fell silent, her eyes going wide as they landed on Naveen. |
"Before you freak out, just give us a minute to explain." Matt pleaded.
"Guess who's back." Oliver snorted- crossing his arms. "Back again?" C asked Oliver. "We're not going there." Oliver said with a frown. |
"Someone had better start explaining now!" Linda shrieked, causing several people to turn and look at her.
"I-... I faked my death!" Naveen cried in alarm. Linda fell silent and gave him a look that clearly said, 'Do you think I'm stupid?' |
"Look, it's too long a story to tell here if we tell it at all." Oliver sighed.
"Yeah, right now, just try not to explode." Matt begged the girl. "Near can't take anything like this right now." |
Next frowned. He really didn't want everyone knowing his secret... he had only told Matt because he loved him. He would likely have to explain it to Near and he would tell Mello... but the others were a different story!
Linda groaned. "Alright, alright... but why is Naveen out here and not with Near at the moment, anyway-!?" "Because Near's heart just gave out and I don't want to give him another heart attack right away," Naveen explained, logically. "Trust me... I am dying to run in there and hold him, but... he doesn't need that right now. He needs... he needs Mello..." Linda paused before she suddenly pulled a fist back and punched the dark-haired boy, making him stumble back in surprise. "Linda-!" Next shouted in alarm. "That's for sleeping with Mello!" Linda snapped. |
"Hey, knock it off!" Matt said- more firmly than Next had ever heard him before as he knelt down and helped Naveen up.
"Hold it, did I hear that right?" Oliver asked One. "Where is Mello, Linda?" C asked. |
"H-He's in with Near," Next said, a little shell shocked at the situation. He watched as Naveen wiped the blood from his nose, looking as if he felt guilty, though he really shouldn't. He hadn't known Near was with Mello until Mello sprung it on him and told him he was marrying Near... Naveen was the victim!
|
Matt pulled down his sleeve and put it to Naveen's nose.
"Then that's right where Mello needs to be right now." C nodded. "Is Near stable after this last one? And K's on call?" |
"Y...Yeah," Next whispered before he shook his head to clear it. "Near's fine... K said she has never seen anyone recover so quickly. She said that it... almost looks like his heart is completely healthy again."
"That's impossible," One whispered, before he let out a small, bitter chuckle. "...But so is Naveen coming back to life, so why am I surprised?" |
"All that matters right now is Near's health...and where the hell Far is." Matt frowned and looked over the group again. "...Where's Far?"
|
Ender frowned and looked at Ninja. "He took a plane before us... we figured he was already here, looking after Zero."
"Shit," One groaned. |
"...He what?" Matt frowned before his eyes shot wide. "Zero!"
He turned and started to run- pulling Naveen along with him. |
"W-what-!?" Naveen gasped as he stumbled after Matt in surprise.
