One nurse rolled Athrun over onto his back while the other one searched for a pulse. A few second later another nurse came in with the stretcher came in. Together all three nurses lifted Athrun onto the stretcher and wheeled him out of the room. Cagalli laid there, tears streaming down her face. Athrun couldn't leave her now, not after all they've been though.
Twenty minutes later her friends walked in to see Cagalli sobbing into her pillow.
"Cagalli, are you okay" Miriallia asked, concerned for her blonde haired friend.
"Ath…run" she sobbed.
"What about Athrun? Where is he?" Kira asked.
"He… collapsed."
"What happened?" Yzak asked.
"I don't…know…I just… looked…away…for a… second…and he was….on the… floor." Cagalli sobbed.
"Is he going to be okay?" asked Lacus.
"I don't know" she said softly, brushing her tears from her face.
"I'm sure he okay" Shiho reassured.
"Would it make you feel better if we found out what happened" Miriallia said.
Lacus stayed behind while the others went to find Athrun. Five minutes later Miriallia returned with some good news.
"He going to be fine, he just passed out from exhaustion. A nurse will be wheeling him in shortly." Miriallia said as the others returned one by one.
Soon after everyone had returned a nursed wheeled in a unconscious Athrun into the room.
Cagalli sighed in relief as she saw Athrun.
"You guys can go if you need to be somewhere" Cagalli said softly, as she noticed that all of them were checking there watches frequently.
"Are you sure?" Miriallia asked.
"Yes, I'll be fine as long as he's by my side" she said not moving her eyes off of Athrun.
"Okay, then we'll be going" Lacus said as she grabbed Kira's arm.
After about half an hour after her friends left, Cagalli had dozed off to sleep. She woke up several hours later where she heard nearby rustling in the bed beside her. She slowly woke herself up before leaning over to turn on the night side table lamp. She looked over to see Athrun trying to stand up.
"You should get your rest" Cagalli said, as she stared over at Athrun.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to wake you" he said as he sat at the end of his bed.
"Its okay ,but still, you need your rest" she said sternly.
"I'm fine" he said.
"The last time you said you were fine you ended up passed out on the floor." She said angrily.
Athrun was left speechless at what Cagalli had said.
"Do you know how worried I was about you?" she asked questioningly.
"I've been worried about you for the last two years... and now that your back I'm still worrying about you." Cagalli said, unaware that tears were falling down her cheeks.
"I-I-I'm s-sorry" he stuttered as he was overcome with guilt.
Athrun laid back down in his and stared at the ceiling.
"I'm sorry" he repeated.
"It's okay, now lets get some rest so we can get out of here and go home." She said as she turned off the bedside table lamp and turning her back to Athrun to look out the window.
"Okay" he said softly before quickly falling asleep. Soon after, Cagalli had fallen asleep as well.
The next morning Cagalli had woken up to a quiet room. She looked over at Athrun to see that he was still sleeping peacefully. She couldn't help but smile as she looked at his charming features.
"Cagalli…" he said faintly, still sleeping.
"Cagalli!" he shouted, now tossing and turning in his bed.
"Athrun, wake up!" she called, hoping that it would wake him up.
Athrun slowly blinked his eyes before pushing himself up into a upright position.
"What was that all about" Cagalli asked.
"Huh?" he asked, confused .
"You were calling my name, well more like shouting it" she said.
"I was?" he said, his cheeks becoming a light pink from embarrassment.
"Yes… you were" she sighed.
"How are you doing" he asked, quickly changing the subject.
"I'm fine" she sad.
"You're not in any pain, are you?"
"No" she said, sighing heavily.
"Then what's the matter?"
"Nothing"
"Liar, something's bothering you."
"No there's not"
"Yes there is"
"No there's not" she said, turning her back to him.
"Come on… I know there's something bothering you." He said, standing up and walking over towards Cagalli.
"You should be in bed." She mumbled.
"No, not till you tell me what's bothering you" he said, crouching down to eye level.
"Fine... do you think things between us could ever return to the way they were?" she said softly.
" I still feel the same way about you as I did two years ago… and nothing will never change that." He said brushing away some of her blonde hair and kissing her forehead before walking back over to his bed and lying down.
"I will always love you Cagalli, and that's something that will never change." He said solemnly.
"I love you too" she said softly, smiling to herself. Luckily Athrun was able to hear her and smiled as well.
A few minutes later a nurse came in to check on Athrun.
"How are you doing?" the nurse asked.
"Fine" Athrun replied.
"Were you able to get any rest?" she said, grabbing the clipboard at the end of his bed.
"Yes"
"Did you have anything to eat recently?" the nurse said, jotting down notes on the clipboard.
"No"
"Okay then, eat up and get some more rest and we will see about you discharged tomorrow." She said as she finished jotting down notes and putting the clipboard at the end of his bed before walking out of the room.
Athrun and Cagalli didn't say much for the afternoon as they were both pondering there thoughts about what each other had said. Around dinner time they both had fallen asleep.
The next morning they were both woken up when a wife ran down the hall, crying nosily. A loud grumbling noise filled the room.
"Was that you?" Cagalli asked.
"Yeah, it was my stomach."
"You should go get something to eat"
"But-"
"No buts ,go get something to eat!" she commanded.
Athrun reluctantly got up and left since he new he wouldn't win that battle. He returned a few minutes later carrying a tray in one hand. He sat the tray on the bedside table.
"Do you want any?" Athrun asked.
"No, not right now" she said.
After Athrun finished eating he fell asleep. Soon after Cagalli had fallen asleep.
