30 Firsts -- Visits (PG-13)

[emoryems]

A/N: this is a continuation of ‘Cold’, the first of my (haha) drabbles. I’m so sorry it’s so long - I couldn’t stop myself.

VisitsPuck hadn’t been lying when he said he was okay, that he had only hit his head. Kurt probably thought he was dying or something, when really he should have been worrying about himself

The small waiting room outside of the ICU is filled with various families all sitting in little pockets on the lush leather couches. As Puck leans back and sinks into his seat, he wonders if the hospital thought that a comfortable waiting room would actually make people feel better about severely sick or injured loved ones

The ICU room is filled with the sound of soft voices and the beeps of heart monitors. Puck walks passed two curtained-off beds before he sees the familiar figure of his boyfriend laid out to his left. A nurse is standing by his head adjusting an IV line and checking a machine’s output.

Puck walks slowly forward, eyes locked on the high cheekbones and the stark contrast between the dark circles around Kurt’s eyes and the pallor of the rest of his skin. There is something about the white sheets and blue blanket that seem to sap the sass and strength that characterizes Kurt from the other boy, leaving him small and fragile-looking on the bed. It hurts Puck more than he imagined to see all of the reasons he calls Kurt ‘Princess’ dimmed away

Oh, good, I'm so glad everything turned out fine. :P

OH it was a very nice surprise! I didn't know about that. It's ridiculous how the US is behind on so many gay rights issues compared to some other countries, but at least we're heading in the right direction. I loved that you made a continuation out of 'Cold'. That was a gripping drabble and hated that it had to end. So I was very ecstatic to see this! And I'm glad my original prompt didn't work because I don't know if I could stand waiting in the dark along with Puck. Very intense and touching <3

WHOA I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THIS THING TAKING PLACE IN MY OWN COUNTRY. O.o
Now I do! Thank you!

And I loved this continuation so much. With Puck and the EMTs and Kurt all drugged up and being worried about visitation rights... <3

I hadn't even heard about it until I wrote this! What a lovely surprise, though :)

Thank you <3

Win! I loved it, but I'm confused: how old are Puck and Kurt in this?

Re: 30 Firsts -- Visits (PG-13) 3/3

[emoryems]

Hahaha shhh! I was hoping no one would ask! :P

I'd say eighteen, though. Just after high school, maybe, so a parent/guardian wouldn't have to be involved (although I don't know very much about the healthcare system in the US :/ so I may be completely off my game here).

Thanks <3
