Rick placed his white lab coat down onto Morty as he pulled up a chair to the table. His arms gripped onto Mortys hand as it twitched with life.
"Morty it's time to wake up now. You've been asleep for so long."
Morty's eyes fluttered open as a strangled gurgle emerged from his throat.
"That's right Morty the doctors got it all wrong. You were just so tired." Rick said as he brushed the strands of hair coated with formaldehyde off of Mortys face. Morty moaned and fidgeted under Ricks Watchful gaze. He giggled as he stared at Rick making the elder smile as he reached a hesitant stitched up hand out towards the man. Rick gripped his wrist planting it onto his cheek and kissing the palm of Mortys hand.
Mortys sickly skin felt stiff and plastic like under Ricks lips.
"You know you scared me dearly Morty. What a nasty trick you played on all of us."
"Ahg Hurrg." Morty gurgled out as he squirmed towards Rick. Rick opened his arms for Morty to crawl into them. The sickly lover laid his head into the crook of Ricks neck as Ricks arm encircled around the reanimated corpse.
"Mort-"
Before Rick could finish his sentence he felt a sharp sting upon his shoulder. Ricks hair stood on end as he roughly pushed the younger back. Blood leaked from the youngers mouth as Rick stood clutching his neck.
"Wha-what?"
Rick removed his hand from his side finding small droplets rolling down his gloves.
"That's not right. "
Rick watched as Morty licked his lips whining as he stared up a Rick expectantly clutching at his stomach.
Ricks tense figure relaxed as he realized why Morty attacked him.
"Sorry Morty I should have realized sooner you might be hungry."
Rick picked Morty up placing his coat around him.
"Summer should be back soon from her grocery run maybe she'll cook you something fantastic after!" Rick said as he walked towards the exit of his lab.
