One Year Later
Chuck and Casey sat in the waiting room nervously waiting. Stephen was having eye surgery to see if it would correct his vision. Chuck had his head against Casey's shoulder asleep, Casey reading some gun magazine he brought with him. Casey checked his watch an hour after they left Stephen in the hands of the doctors, they said it would take an hour and 45 minutes to 2 hours. It had been close to that, Chuck mumble moving around sitting up.
"Anything?" Chuck asked, resting his chin on Casey's shoulder.
"No, unfortunately." Casey turned his head, smirking at how close Chuck's face was.
Chuck gave him a quick peek on the lips. Another 40 minutes later the surgeon came out . Casey and Chuck stood quickly.
"He did good, we are sitting him up in recovery now you can see him in a few." Dr. Daniels said.
Casey breathed a huge sigh of relief, while Chuck jumped up and down.
"Someone will be out shortly to take both of you back."
"Thank you." Chuck said.
After the doctor left, Casey pulled Chuck into a hug. Both stood holding each other until a nuresecame and got them. They followed her to another room when Casey opened the door and Stephen lit up seeing people. When Casey said,
"Hey buddy." Stephen clapped his hands saying
"Dada, Dada."
Chuck laughed saying,
"What about me?"
"Daddy, daddy."
Chuck sat on one side while Casey sat on the other. Stephen started getting sleepy. Casey picked him up and settled him on his chest. Chuck smiled at the sight.
"What?" Casey grunted.
"Nothing, nothing at all." Chuck smiled, watching the man he loved holding their one year old in a hospital bed.
