Transmutation Interlude 12 - RL Hospital Log PPTH

Jul 02, 2010 23:25

Edward started off asleep. He's unconscious, on his back, an IV draining into his arm. He's wearing blue hospital scrubs because his clothes are trashed. On the table beside his bed, where there is a water pitcher and a glass for him, as well as a remote, are his personal effects. One state alchemist watch, a set of six earrings and a small repair ( Read more... )

Winry had nearly worn a hole in the linoleum of the waiting room floor. She had never had to wait like this before. She'd been Granny's assistant during the surgeries that saved Ed's life originally and when his automail ports had been installed.

She knew everyone here was worried. That went without saying. But she couldn't help but think Ed had been too lucky, too many times. Until she could see him for herself, she wouldn't know if he'd be okay. When the doctor said Ed could see visitors, she grabbed Al's gauntlet, squeezing the leather as if he could feel it.

Winry pushed through the door, biting her lip, taking in how pale Ed looked, the tubes running in and out of his body. Clinically, he looked okay, but she couldn't quite look at him clinically. "What were you doing, Ed?" Her normal yell barely came out as a squeak.

He looked towards the familiar voice and he smiled weakly and spoke, his voice still rough, he'd clearly damaged his lungs somehow. "Winry..." He sucked in a small breath. "Better not have been...crying."

"P-promised, didn't I?" Her voice cracked and Winry swallowed, trying to get control of herself. She made her way to the bed, red eyes indicating that she either hadn't slept in a while or possibly had been crying. Leaning over the bed, Winry kissed his forehead softly then pressed her cheek against his. "I was so scared."

"Yeah I know. Don't cry Win. As you can see, I am perfectly alright...alive anyway." Edward rasped a little and put his flesh hand over hers weakly.

Winry laughed, though it sounded almost like a sob. "At least you didn't destroy my automail this time." Closing her eyes, she twined her fingers with Ed's. She wanted to hold him tight; to never, ever let him go and do something foolish again. It wasn't her decision, though, and Ed still had other promises he had to fulfill. Straightening, she smiled for him. "So," Winry said, "you're going to take time and rest and actually heal for once before charging off." Though she said it cheerfully, Winry didn't exactly leave any room for argument.

"Just because he didn't get you now, we have to stop him Winry." Edward said, coughing because of talking too much. "He's going to kill a lot of people."

"And you're not going to die trying to stop him, Ed!" Winry took a breath, trying to keep control of her voice. "Envy...he...said you are a sacrifice. They're...not going to do anything again 'til you show up. You know it."

"Oh that." Ed coughed and shook his head. "I don't know what they want me for yet...something to do with their plans and why you're a hostage...but I don't know."

Winry stroked the hair off Ed's forehead. "You probably shouldn't talk any more." Her smile was gentle. "Besides, there are other people here who want to see you."

Edward frowned a little but reached for her hand. His grip was weak and feeble, but he grasped her hand as best he could.

Twining her fingers with Ed's, Winry leaned down and kissed his forehead again. "I won't go far," she whispered. "If you need me," Winry nodded toward the window, "I'll be right out there. Okay?"

He nodded, letting go, giving up his grip on her. Asking her to stay is ridiculous. "See you." He said softly.

"Mm!" Winry patted his leg and turned to leave the room, seeing someone outside the door.

hope you don't mind naoto jumping in! truthinfortune July 4 2010, 05:01:20 UTC
It was Naoto who happened to be standing just outside the door. The petite detective was only too happy to defer to Winry when the doctor requested that the "next of kin" should be allowed to see him first.

"So... how is he...?"

Heh. hands4healing July 4 2010, 05:10:53 UTC
"So pale." Winry shook her head, mentally comparing Ed at eleven to the way he looked now. "He's already complaining..." She pressed her fingers against her eyes, trying to hold back the tears.

Naoto pursed her lips. She hadn't expected any miraculous recovery, but still...

A few quick strides closed the distance between them. The petite girl wrapped her arms around Winry.

"It's all right. He's going to be okay now."
