(She had paced and fretted until the doctors had finally come to her and forced her to drink a bottle of gatorade as they explained in some odd sort of round robin how the surgery had gone. She had interrupted and begged for layman's terms and warned them to tell her the truth... but as far as she could tell they were optimistic.. could she be as well? Sighing, she had sat in a complete daze until a nurse had finally come to lead her to the room where her lover lay, once again, under the supervision of the many beeping and whirring devices, and once again she couldn't see his beautiful eyes. Tucking her lower lip between her teeth, she walked quietly into the room, her hand protective against her stomach as she approached his side. It was sad just how familiar this entire sight was.. and how she simply walked over to slip her hand into his.. she would never, for the rest of her life, forget how pale and drawn he had looked at that moment.. and how desperately she had prayed for his recovery. Sighing, she brushed his hair back from his forehead as she leaned over to press her lips to the soft skin there, her own eyes closing as she listened to his soft breathing and imagined him waking and speaking to her.) I'm here, baby. (She murmured to him, sitting down at his side in the chair and holding his hand as she watched him, waiting and hoping for the best.)

  - He searched her gaze before he realized that she really did understand him and a low breath escaped his mouth, his lips curving into a slow, self satisfied smile as if he had done this all by himself without the doctors help. He laid his head slowly back onto the pillow and closed his eyes for a long moment, just letting himself calm down and really absorb the fact that he was going to be alright, that life would move along as it should as long as he gave it a chance too before he slowly let his eyes open again, the smug, almost cocky expression firmly in place on his face and in his eyes that were suddenly so much brighter then they had been. "Hey." He smiled again, lifting his hand to gently brush away the tears from her cheeks. (NT) -- Nick, Mon, Mar 06 2006, 12:39am PST

  - His eyes drifted over her slowly, taking in her haggard apperance that he had only watched deteriorate without being able to say anything for the past few weeks. "You've looked better, princess." He murmured, though his words weren't mean, more worried and a little scolding. "Think they'll let me out of here soon now?" He was anxious to be home now, to be in his apartment with her and back to work and just living life again. Hell, he was anxious to have a drink of bourbon and smoke a cigar and enjoy life and all its luxeries even more then he had before this had all happened. He would be enjoying that cuban to the fullest extent of enjoying it, not to mention he wanted to be able to make love to her - definately on the top five list of things missed.
