this sucks

[demon_hall]

I'm wandering again, but I have so little energy left that I'm just shuffling along, still wrapped up in that green blanket that reminds me of Nick's eyes. I haven't slept since the night he was taken from me, I haven't eaten, I haven't drank anything. Nick would probably smack me if he saw how badly I'm taking care of myself. That thought makes

They put him in an observation room.

*gapes*

*looks around, then starts talking quickly*

Where? Can I see him? Is he alright?

*rattles off a bunch more questions*

*whispers to Sean*

You do realize you're covered in blood, right?

Re:

[angel_sean]

Oh.

*looks down*

I...I...*stares at his hands that are covered in blood*

Nick is being kept in Observation Room 4, Chris can see him, just don't wake him up.

Do you want me to take him to Nick, then?

Re:

[angel_sean]

*nods*

Please.

*looks up at you, eyes filled with tears and vanishes*

Re:

[protectorlee]

*looks at Chris*

Come on, man.

*takes his arm and vanishes over to the infirmary, outside of Nick's room*

Just don't wake him up, alright?

*can't look at Nick*

Re:

[demon_hall]

*looks in at Nick*

Oh my fucking God.

*looks at Brandon*

Can I go in?

[protectorlee]

*nods, speaking softly*

Just don't wake him up, alright?

*leaves, nodding to the angel who's standing guard at the door*

*I nod and walk in, closing the door behind me quietly. I take a deep breath and look over at Nick again, tearing up. He looks so small and fragile on that bed, he looks so damaged... I walk over and sit down on the edge of his bed, taking one of his hands in mine. His fingers are covered in new pink skin, and I run my own fingers over them, trying to process this. I reach up and gently tug his covers down, wanting to see the rest of him. I wince as I look over his chest and stomach, and bite my lip as my gaze comes to his belly, the belly I've kissed and nuzzled and tickeld, where there's a pink cross-like scar. I close my eyes for a moment, then pull the covers lower

*whimpers softly at your touch but snuggles closer towards your warmth, murmuring softly in my sleep*

[demon_hall]

*I wince and pull my hand away from your belly, wrapping my arm back around your waist*

Sleep, love. You're safe now.

*I wish you'd always been safe*

*settles down again, muttering quietly*

[demon_hall]

*watches you sleep for a very long time*

*thinks about how glad he is that you're back, but that he wishes it had never happened*

*nuzzles you again*

A few hours later

[demon_nick]

*wakes up suddenly*

*looks at you*

*starts muttering*

Re: A few hours later

[demon_hall]

*is still awake*

*looks up at you*

Hi.

*hugs you very tightly*
