ENJOY!
"N-Nat? Nat where are you?" Rave ran wildly through the streets pushing against the stream of people running from the huge robot, "Get the fuck out of my way!" He snarled pushing past a particularly large group and coming to a completely clear street.
"Where the fuck did that idiot run off to?" Rave muttered striding forward, trying to ignore his trembling hands.
"Rave!" A familiar voice yelled and Rave turned to the noise seeing the teal-haired moron running towards him with a goofy grin. Despite having been searching for Nat previously Rave was not paying attention to him but more to the robot looming above him as he sprinted to Rave, oblivious.
"Nat, you idiot, there's a big-ass robot behind you!" Nat frowned slowing down enough to look behind him and making possibly the biggest mistake he could have.
In the few seconds he slowed down the robot gained on him considerably so that when he tripped, as he was looking back, he didn't have any time to move before the robots foot came crashing down. Rave screamed and shut his eyes tight not wanting to see, when he opened his eyes again he saw the robot walking back the way it had come, seemingly finished with its task, and Nat lying in a crumpled mess on the ground. Rave ran to him kneeling on the ground beside him and picking him up in his arms.
"Nat! Nat, please be OK… Oh god. Nat…" He cried out at the limp body in his arms.
Rave sat restlessly in the waiting room, he could see the door that led to Nat's room and all he wanted was to run over and go inside. Unfortunately he was in the middle of an operation and the doctors weren't letting anyone inside. As such Rave was forced to wait in the tiny room with nothing but woman's magazines and children's books to entertain him. Naturally he was not entertained, quite far from it in fact as he waited impatiently for the doctors and nurses to come out and inform him of Nat's condition.
Finally they began leaving the room and one of the nurses approached him, "He's alive, though he is in a critical condition. He is unconscious right now but you may go in and sit with him if you wish to."
Rave didn't need to be told twice; he jumped up and went to Nat's room. Nat was lying on the bed, his body limp like a rag doll, Rave sat on a chair by the bed and gently held one of his hands.
"Nat, you're an absolute idiot. Look what you've done now- you've gone and left me all alone." Rave whispered the tears he'd been trying to keep back spilling down his cheeks as sobs racked through his body, "what am I supposed to do now? What do I do if you d-don't wake u-"
He couldn't finish the sentence and even sitting up straight proved to be too difficult as he bowed forward, resting his forehead on Nat's hip bone. He held Nat's hand to his lips and kissed it softly over and over as his tears soaked through the beds blanket and Nat's clothes. He lay there quietly for hours and when he raised his head it was dark outside. He knew he should expect one of the nurses to come in and tell him visiting hours were over soon but to his surprise they never showed up and Rave spent the night sitting next to Nat's unconscious body.
Rave woke late the next morning, his eyes were red and puffy and he felt extremely sore and tired. Still he wouldn't leave Nat's side, not for breakfast or lunch and when evening rolled around he was still sitting by the bed only having left to go to the restroom coming off of the room once or twice. The nurses were becoming increasingly worried and when they began to hover around the door of Nat's room other visitors noticed, including a young waitress from a small nearby café. After hearing what was going on she frowned and decided, instead of waiting around uselessly like the nurses she would actually do something about it. She ran off away from the room and came back with some Chinese take away. Pushing past the nurses she entered the room and Rave looked up at her through red eyes.
"Idiot, you're going to end up in a hospital bed as well if you don't eat anything." Was all she said as she dumped the food in Rave's lap.
"Who are you?" Rave croaked hoarsely.
"My names Ailey I work in a shitty little café near here."
Rave blinked slowly looking up at her, "How old are you?"
"I'm 15, but I'm still smarter than your dumb ass."
"Considering the fact asses don't have brains I would hope so."
Ailey smirked, "Well if you can throw a comeback at me I'm going to assume you are going to be ok and take care of yourself now. So eat your fucking meals and get some sleep."
Rave simply nodded as he opened the take away she had brought. When Ailey saw he was eating she smiled and left feeling proud. As she exited the room she saw the nurses hovering around still and watching Rave, she glared at them and pulled the door shut behind her. Behind the door Rave had already finished the food he had been brought as after the first bite he realised just how hungry he was.
He still stayed where he was though, the young girl Ailey had made him feel a little better but he just couldn't leave Nat when he might wake up- or die- at any moment. So he spent another night asleep on Nat's chest, the sound of his beating heart calming him.
