no. I'm fixing this hi guys! Well sorry for the late update but here ya go!
The pale blond man lay in the hospital bed. His mind was like a prison for him, keeping him locked up and still. He wanted to wake. He could figure out things if he was awake. But he couldn't seem to muster the strength to open those bright green eyes.
It was like sitting in a white room. Like he had seen before when he was taken into this place. He didn't know where he was. All he could do was imagine those crystal blue orbs that had looked down on him with grace, with kindness. He sighed softly and gave up again in the motion to get out.
************
Alfred wanted to check on John Doe one more time before he went to breakfast with Gil. He sighed softly as he walked into the room seeing the little man showing no improvements. He sighed softly making sure the mans breathing tube was adjusted correctly again. "Come on john, ya gotta wake up sooner or later!" He said to the man in the cot.
He sighed knowing he was going to be getting no response from the smaller man. He checked the monitors again and then looked down at him softly. He pat the pale blonds arm softly and felt the heart monitor go up a beat. "Haha man just keep beating I'll be back before lunch...maybe you'll be awake by then...if not take all the time ya need to rest. You had a rough night." He looked at the peaceful man for a moment then pulled the curtain across the room blocking the outside world from seeing him.
Alfred started to walk down the cafeteria where he was supposed to meet Gil. He hated when patients were unconscious for long periods of time. Or in a coma. He shrugged off the feeling,"It's breakfast time! A hero needs the first meal of the day!" He said excitedly as he walked to the elevator punching in a button to go to the ground floor.
He snapped his fingers lightly to the music playing in the elevator. He took a deep breath and smiled his usual heroic smile. He felt the elevator ding and got out walking and saying hi to some of the nurses as he walked. He laughed to himself. Some breakfast will make it all better. He saw Gil walking into the cafeteria and waved to him.
The Prussian seemed distracted for a minute then waved back vigorously. Alfred laughed and walked over giving the Prussian a high five as greeting,"Hey man how was rounds?" Gil exhaled loudly,"That bad...?" Alfred asked he got a nod as they walked to some guy throwing eggs on a plate.
"There was so many screaming kids..." He sighed softly then his smiled brightened,"But the awesome me dealt with them!" He said proudly. "I even had time to visit him..." He said looking around seeing no one was paying attention. He shuffled his feet,"Oh...how was he...? I was going to visit him when I got off..." Alfred then walked away to get some kind of heroic cereal.
Gil followed behind him,"Pretty good I mean he hasn't gotten any better but hasn't gotten any worse right?" Alfred nodded tightly. This was the wrong subject to bring up to the American. He looked off for a moment then back to the Prussian,"Still brain dead?" He asked softly with a certain guard in his voice. He got only a nod in response.
And just like that the heavy subject dropped. They got their meals paying for them then sitting and chatting, about work, about people, and many other things for the duration of an hour. They surprisingly hadn't gotten buzzed in that hour to go and help patients. "So about him...Alfred they want to know if you're gonna pull the plug..." Alfreds eyes widened,"What?!" He said loudly,"He's fine and going to wake up it hasn't been that long only like a few months-" the serious crimson eyes were turned to him hiding a deep sadness,"It's been eight months and your his closest family..." Alfred shook his head. "you may be his brother but you are a doctor...what would be best for him..." Alfred stood immediately. He just walked off how childish that sounded he didn't want to hear anymore.
He sighed softly and headed upstairs to the ER.

Arthur felt something softly and gentle wash over him. It was like a lovely wave of relief. He could breathe and he could feel. He could feel his breaths leaving his body then returning. He could feel himself breathing softer. Like it wasn't a struggle to fill his lungs with the precious jewel of life. Then it was like there was suddenly too much air.
He felt a reflex of his eyes snapping open. He wasn't sure how that released the oxygen from rapidly filling his lungs but he felt his body at comfort again. For a moment. Then a red hot pain sliced up his chest making him let out a whimper and yelp of pain. He couldn't move much and felt his chest heavy. He also felt like there was something covering his chest.
He looked down at his hands, they were bruised around the knuckles and had bruises over all of his fingers. He was fascinated by the hands for so long he didn't notice the bandaged elevated leg that was connected to him as well. His voice didn't seem to be working well so he couldn't say much to try and summon someone.
He felt kind of dizzy for being up so long. His memory was quite foggy along with all of his memories. He struggled to try and remember what his name was. He couldn't remember where he was and felt a bit of cold fear isolate itself through his veins. He heard a scuffling coming into the room and tried to back up but got a razor hot pain coming from his leg.
"Okay I just have to- oh hello you're awake.~" he heard a voice that sounded feminine. It frightened him his arms started to shake causing his chest pain. "N-No..." He mumbled finding half of his voice. The sound was hoarse and broken not coming out as more than a whisper. "I just have to ask you a few questions-" Arthur shook his head feeling his heart pumping faster.
She looked at the heart monitor then to him,"Sir please calm down, I'm not here to hurt you-" Arthur started to pull things out of his arms. He felt like it was instinct to run. Was she going to hurt him. He heard more scuffling then another pair of footsteps bound into the room. It was a man. He Arthur felt his heart racing as his eyes looked around for an escape.
The mans presence made him more scarred. He wasn't sure why it did but it just freaked him out. He let out a small squeal of pain as he pulled an IV out of the crook of his elbow. He panted a bit now as the man came closer and he edged himself to the bed end where he was keeping his distance from the frightening strangers. "Sit please calm down-" the man came closer and that was it for Arthur he pushed himself off the bed yanking his leg loose from the object elevating it.
It took him only a second to hit the ground. He let out a small shriek and looked to the curtain surrounding them backing up to the best of his ability. He could hardly breathe. He felt some more noise coming from all around them as Arthur cowered in the corner. He saw another figure pull the curtain back and slowly go towards him. But this one was different he had those crystal eyes. "Hang on...just calm down..." He heard somewhere in the distance.
He looked up and his heart calmed as if obeying this man. He felt his head light and a bit confused as the man inched closer. He felt a safety running through his veins. His heart beat slowly, painfully slowly as the man carefully approached the little pale blond. "I'm going to pick you up okay?" He said with eyes that looked wide with caution. He nodded finding he had no way of speaking again.
Hands slowly reached under him until they pulled him to the bigger mans chest, strong. His mind thought softly as he let out a small gasp of pain. He felt a gentle hand holding him close to the doctors chest. He whimpered as his leg felt like it was on fire. The pain was disintegrating then flaming up again. "Shhh. You're okay don't worry your going to be fine." The soft words registered in his mind as comforting.
"Kiku will you get one of the nurses to get a morphine drip on for him?" He jeard as he listened to the soft heart beat of this man. He heard some kind of yes sir and felt himself gently lowered to the bed. He let out another whimper as he felt the solid object under him. "Okay we're going to get you some pain killers and then you can have a good rest okay." Arthur nodded as a sign of comprehension and whimpered looking at the doctor.
He looked at the little Brit and then started to turn. Arthur didn't want that. In a world of the unknown he felt safe with this one person. He quickly grabbed the mans arm with a bruised hand. The doctor looked back confused for a moment then looking at the Brit. "S-Stay..." He mumbled.
The doctor nodded as someone came over and pricked his arm with another needle but he didn't care as long as he was with this man. He felt something cold start to rush through him. His eyes slowly shut as he took soft little breaths. He went back to dream. It was safer there.
alright so that's it for this chapter. And the HE that Gil and Alfie are talking about is NOT Arthur just to make that clear if it wasn't already. Anyways love you all
