Chapter 5

A/N: OMFG. Can I even try to top that last chapter? I dunno. Here you go, have some fanfiction from little marshmallow's perspective! Agh! I'm so in love with this story. Also, since I last checked. OVER 800 VEIWS! WTF YOU GUYS. Again, it's not the same as favorites or follows, but it still means a lot to me that anyone would even click on this, so THANK YOU!

Pain. That was Swap's immediate thought when he woke up. Fell, that was his second thought. In a moment of where am I panic, he swiveled his head around to take in his location. He seemed to be lying in a hospital bed, sat slightly upright by a pillow. The room wasn't very big, but it was cool, which was sort of pleasant. There was an IV in one corner that didn't seem to be in use. It was weird.

Something was gripping his left hand forcefully, and he turned to see a passed out Fell, head on the bed, hands holding onto his own with force. He looked like he had been crying, a little puddle of pink around his head. He looked exhausted. Swap felt a little jump of affection for the other.

The door on the left wall opened and a human walked in, looking at her clipboard and muttering to herself. She looked up and jumped a little when she made eye contact with him."O- oh!"

Swap raised a finger to his teeth, looking at the asleep form next to him. In a moment of understanding, the woman nodded.

She walked a little closer to him and smiled, looking back at her clipboard. "How are you feeling?" She whispered out the words, obviously trying not to wake Fell up. Swap felt a wave of gratitude.

"Better than when I fell asleep. Leg is still killing me." He winced when trying to move it into a more comfortable position.

"Good. If you're finally conscious, then we can start the procedure."

"W- What procedure?"

"Well... since you're literally made of bone, with no skin, there's really no way we can fix your leg."

Swap felt a rush of panic. "Y- you're gonna amputate it?"

The woman looked shocked, and then she smiled. "No, no. We just need to get a replacement for that specific bone. Of course, to do so we need to take the rest of the previous one off, but Fell refused to let us do that until you were awake enough to tell us what you wanted. You've got yourself one hell of a boyfriend. I'm a little jealous." She chuckled. "Wouldn't leave your side the whole time you were out."

"H- How long was I out?" Swap could feel the heat rise to his cheekbones. Having someone tell him how lucky he was made him see it even more than he already did.

"A day and a half, almost two. It's about four in the morning right now. He was awake half of the time as well. Refused to go to sleep. Pretty much did nothing but sit there and talk to you. We tried to give him as much space as possible. Most of the staff are terrified of him."

Swap looked back at Fell, feeling the tears rise up. He felt cared about, which was a nice feeling compared to how Galaxy had made him feel. He looked back at the lady. "Jeez..." He couldn't really think of any other word to describe his feelings.

"Well, I need to take a look at your leg, if that's okay?" Swap nodded, and she pulled the sheet aside, pushing the gown he had somehow gotten in aside and looking down at the snapped bone. Swap tried his hardest to look away. He couldn't help but take a small peek. Feeling the bile rise, he stared. The bone was snapped in half, hanging limply from the back of his tibia. It was sickening. There was gauze wrapped around the ends in an attempt to stop the bleeding. The woman looked at it carefully before smiling.

"We're just making sure it doesn't get infected before we put in the replacement."

Something nagged at his mind. "W- What is the replacement, exactly?"

"Oh! Well, we figured this would be a pain in the butt, and would probably hurt pretty bad if we left it as it is, but we saw no reason to remove the whole leg. One doctor from another unit suggested that we just give you a plastic replacement. She said she could get a model made by tomorrow, as long as she had some measurements. Fell here let us measure his own, since you two were the same size and such. We're getting it made today." She smiled.

"So you're going to remove this bone and replace it with a plastic one?"

The woman nodded and put the sheet back in place. "Yes, pretty much. Do you want anything?"

Swap thought for a moment. "W- water. And I'm a little hungry, if you don't mind...?" He looked back at Fell.

She just nodded and left, leaving him there in the silence. He put his other hand on Fell's head and stroked it softly, smiling. Seeing a sad Fell made him pretty upset, but it didn't bother him too much, as long as he could make him happy again.

He was snapped out of his thoughts when the woman came back with a paper cup of water and a tray. On the tray was a piece of toast, with some little butter and jelly packets, and an apple. She set the tray next to him, and handed him the cup. "Press the button right there if you need anything else, okay?"

Swap nodded and downed the cup, feeling a little better. He turned to the tray next to him. Guessing that Fell had refused to eat, he split the toast in half, covering his own in butter and jelly. Knowing Fell, he was just going to put a little butter on his own.

When he was done eating the toast, which was slightly burnt, he was full, so he left the apple there. He was just laying there, his only tethers to reality being Fell's hands and the pain in his leg.

Something moving next to him made Swap jump, looking to his side. Fell raised his head and groaned. "Fuuuck I fell asleep." He yawned, sitting up. He hadn't noticed the awake skeleton next to him, apparently.

"Good morning, sleeping beauty." Swap smiled when Fell snapped to attention, eyes wide.

He was standing in seconds, panicking. "Holy shit! Are you okay? Do you need anything? Does it still hurt?" Not waiting for any answers, he leaned over and gripped Swap into a hug. "You don't ever, ever do that to me again, understand?"

Swap just nodded, hugging him back. Feeling tears seep into his gown, he began to cry a little as well, tears of joy obviously. Fell sat back down, letting out a breath. "You scared me."

"Well, I'm here now, huh?" Fell laughed a little.

"Yeah."

-More time skips, aren't they fun?-

The next morning, Swap could barely contain his anticipation. He was going to be rid of his broken bone. Fell kept pacing the whole time, refusing to eat or do anything but worry. He was concerned about the procedure, no matter how many times the doctor assured him that they knew what they were doing. He even walked Fell through it a number of times.

The nurse, whom Swap had found out was Ms. Nyesh, came into the room at that moment, the doctor behind her. "Alright, we're ready." The doctor pushed in a wheelchair, which Fell immediately jumped to help Swap get into.

"Can I push him there?" Fell looked antsy, as if he didn't want Swap to even go. Swap squeezed his hand, trying to get him to calm down. Fell squeezed back.

The nurse only nodded, leading them out of the room and following the doctor. The turned down a hall to the left of where he was, going through a set of large doors. This hall was made up of mostly doctors and nurses, aside from the few people sitting huddled in some chairs. Fell let go of the wheelchair, although, he knelt by Swap for a moment and gave him one last hug.

He pressed his teethe to Swap's forehead, murmuring an 'I love you', before he went to sit down. The nurse smiled and pushed him through another door, this one to a surgical room. There was a metal table, and one of those little wheel tables, that already had tools on it. The doctor set a gas tank next to the table as the nurse helped him up onto it.

"Now I'm not gonna lie, when you wake up this is going to hurt. It'll go away, and we'll get you some painkillers, but we just want to warn you." The doctor and nurse were washing their hands, letting Swap have some space to mentally prepare himself. He was shaking, but he tried to calm himself down enough to breath normally.

The nurse walked back to the area, gloves then on, and set up the anesthesia, placing the mask the best she could on his face. When she was sure it was secure, she looked at him, trying to smile. The last though he had being of Fell telling him he loved him, Swap fell into a comforting darkness.

-*You put another time skip in the same fanfiction-

-*You feel like trash to the world-

Swap woke up in a very bad mood. His leg felt like it was on fire, there was an annoying beeping sound, he had to pee, and everything was foggy. He groaned and turned his head to the side, trying to wake up properly. A voice came from somewhere above. "Oh good, he's waking up. Hey, buddy, you need anything?"

He groaned and looked up to see an ever so familiar face looking at him, concerned. "Papy?"

"Yeah. The nurse let me in. Fell's getting you food from that Italian restaurant you love so much. How you feeling?"

"Like a cow butt. It hurts real bad..." He groaned again. Papyrus placed a hand on his head.

"It'll stop hurting soon, kiddo. I promise. The nurse is off getting your painkillers now." He smiled. "You want some water?"

Swap nodded, silently thanking god for giving him such a great brother. Vision starting to clear, Swap looked around. He was back in the room from before. His leg was propped up on a pillow, with a thick blue cast over it. It hurt pretty bad, like a burning sensation, and he couldn't feel the spot where his fibula once was. It was pretty disorienting, but he would get the hang of it.

Papyrus came back with an ever so familiar paper cup, handing it to Swap and sitting on a chair that was pulled up beside the right of the bed. He smiled at his brother, watching him down the water.

The door in the front of the room opened, and the nurse walked in with a little yellow bottle. "Papyrus? I brought in the pills. Oh, he's awake! Good. Is Fell back with the food? He should eat something substantial."

Pap shook his head, taking the capsule from her. "Thank you." He set it on the table beside the bed.

"How are you feeling?" Ms. Nyesh smiled, standing by the corner of the bed.

"Better, it feels kinda weird, though. Thanks." Swap returned the smile, trying to be positive.

The door opened for a second time, revealing Fell and a bag of take-out. He looked a little shocked to see Swap sitting up, then concerned, then ecstatic. "Jesus fucking Christ! You're awake!" He walked over, setting the bag next to the painkillers, and sweeping him into a hug. "I- I- thank god!" Fell let him go, holding onto his shoulders and getting a good look in his eyes.

He was about to cry again, tears showing on the edges of his eye sockets. It made Swap want ti cry as well, although he tried not to. "Yeah..."

"I got you food, w- when you're hungry. Paps, I got you something too." Fell looked away from the two, most likely embarrassed with his outburst.

The nurse, whom was examining Swap, smiled at the three skeletons. To other people, it must have looked strange to see all three of them standing there, but probably not to her. "I'm going to be on my way. You three look like you have things you need to talk about."

"Yeah, thank you!" Papyrus laughed a little and turned back to Swap. "You hungry?"

Swap nodded, feeling the little empty hole of hunger poking at him. Fell opened the bag and poked around a bit before pulling out a black container and plastic cutlery. "Papyrus said you just wanted spaghetti and meatballs, so..." He drifted off, looking at Swap with surprise when he made a squeak of excitement.

"Really?" Yes!" Fell set the container on his lap, smiling at the childish other. He turned to Papyrus, hands still hovering over the bag.

"I got you the same thing. And that mustard you asked for." Fell pulled out another container, along with a small plastic bag of mustard packets. Swap laughed.

Fell pulled out his own container, taking the rest of the mustard for himself and sitting in a chair a little behind Papyrus's chair against the wall.

Swap was already halfway done with the spaghetti by the time this exchange was over, Pap having just started his. He smiled at the two, feeling a surge of affection run over him. "You guys are the best. You don't have to fret over me this much!" A little embarrassed, Swap looked at his food.

"We want to, though. You gave us quite the scare." Papyrus laughed, although it sounded forced. Swap shook his head. He didn't want to be this worried about, because he knew it was such a hindrance to them both. Although he did like to be pampered occasionally, he didn't like to be so immobile.

"You can't stop us, even if you try." Fell chuckled. He seemed to be trying to hide in his hood, red faced.

Swap smiled larger, feeling his own blush from earlier reform. "Touche." Papyrus looked back and forth between them, confused. He sighed, shook his head, and went back to his food.

When they were done, filling the time by chatting over unimportant things, it was awkwardly quiet. After a few moments, Swap looked over at Fell, whom was already staring at him. He felt himself get slightly blue, looking away. He didn't look back for a few minutes, and when he did he almost burst out laughing. Fell, bright red, was yet again trying to hide in his hood, looking at the ground. His red orbs flashed up to stare at Swap before he started laughing, hard, into his jacket. Swap, unable to resist, fell into fits of giggles, looking away.

This entire time Papyrus was looking at them with both a look of confusion and amusement. Then a look of realization. Swap and Fell were to busy laughing to notice him examine both of them before he started staring at Fell with a very scary look.

That was, nobody notices until Papyrus faked a cough to get their attention. Swap stopped laughing, looking at his brother confusedly. "You okay? I hope you didn't pick up anything."

Pap ignored the question and looked at Fell, shooting daggers that Swap could feel on his spine. "Fell. I need to talk to you. In the hall." He stood up, grabbing the other skeletons sleeve and pulling him out the door. Leaving Swap all alone to watch the muted conversation through the glass.

Papyrus's arms were crossed, and he seemed to be lecturing Fell. Then Fell got red. Very red. He looked at the ground, making a slightly angry and embarrassed face. Pap laughed, and leaned in, seeming to whisper something in Fell's... ear hole. Fell looked a little scared, but also very determined. He nodded, glaring slightly. Pap laughed and walked back into the room, Fell in tow.

Swap tried to pretend he hadn't been watching them and looked at his hands, hoping they hadn't noticed. Papyrus stood by the door, shooting one last glare at Fell before he turned back at Swap. "I gotta go. See you later. Get well soon!" And with that he turned around and left. Swap looked at Fell curiously.

"What did he say?"

"Nothing important." Fell scooted closer to the edge of the bed, propping his head on his arm. "I'm gonna fuck Galaxy up. He had no right to tell us what to do, but it's definitely not going to just blow over after he did this to you. It pisses me off."

Swap nodded. "I- I know. Just don't get violent. You saw what he did to me, I don't want you getting hurt, too."

Fell only laughed a little and placed his other hand atop Swap's, making him blush all over again. "If he ever does shit like this again... Jesus Christ he could have killed you, Swap... I don't even want to think about it. Let's just savor the fact that he didn't." Fell closed his eyes, a tear falling onto the bed sheet. The another, and another. They didn't seem to stop. "I love you too much. I don't want to lose you." He was whispering, shaking just a little.

Swap let a few of his own tears fall. "Y- you're not gonna lose me. I'll make sure of that." He smiled. "We've got my leg all patched up, I'm not gonna die, okay?" Fell only nodded, squeezing his hand tighter.

"Hey, Swap."

"Mm?" He looked at Fell, who had let go of his hand and was blushing furiously.

"I'm gonna hug you again, okay?"

Swap nodded, opening his arms and scooting aside to make room. Fell climbed up next to him, pulling him into a hug. Swap rested his head on the others breastplate, closing his eyes when he felt the skeletal arms wrap around him.

Resting his head on top of Swap's, Fell let out a content sigh. "I don't want to lose you."

"You won't. I promise."

"I love you, you know."

"I love you too." Swap started to drift off, content in the warmth of Fell, as well as his rhythmic breathing.
