"How are you feeling Charlie?" Don asked taking a seat beside his brother.

"I'm fine. I'm just ready to go home." he answered looking over at Colby.

Colby has been there from the very moment that he was admitted and hasn't left from his side since.

"You look like crap." Charlie said with a chuckle while he still looked at Colby.

"I think the scruffy look works for me. What do you think?" Colby asked rubbing his hand across the hair that was now visible all over his face.

"I think it looks hot." Charlie said

"Okay. Save it for when you get out." Don said.

The doctor that did surgery walked into the room causing everyone to become silent. Charlie expression went from happy to worried. Colby reached over and grabbed his boyfriend's hand hoping he would relax a bit.

"How is our patient feeling today?" he said looking at the folder in his hand as he stood at the foot of the bed.

"I'm fine." he said.

"Are you sure? This is the time to speak up if you feel anything." the doctor added.

"Yes I'm sure. When can I leave?" Charlie asked.

"Actually that's the reason why I'm here. We just need someone to fill out all the release forms and you can be home before dinner time." the doctor said.

"Seriously?" Charlie asked his eyes lit up.

"Yeah sir. I don't kid about releasing my patients. But if you wanna stay longer you're more than welcome." the doctor said laughing.

"I'll go with you to fill out the papers." Don said standing up.

"Isn't that great Charlie. I know you're excited." Colby said kissing his hand.

"I feel like I'm gonna go crazy if I don't hurry up and leave." Charlie said.

"Why? You haven't been here long enough to go crazy yet." Colby said.

"Yeah I know but you know how I get when I have a problem in my head I want to get out. It drives me nuts." Charlie said shifting in his bed.

(Later that evening)

As soon as Charlie got home he was greeted by the whole gang from the office and they all stayed and talked for a bit before everyone departed and went their own way. Charlie made his way over to the couch. The doctor told him to take it easy the first few days home so he was going to try his best. But knowing how he is he will be back in the swing of things by tomorrow. Hating to admit it but Charlie was beginning to get tired even though he hasn't done much of anything that day. But with just one word Colby help him upstairs to their room.

"I'm finally glad I get a chance to get you alone." Colby said closing the door to their bedroom.

"You know we can't do that tonight." Charlie said chuckling at his horny boyfriend.

"Charlie, as much as I would love to do that. I can wait a little while longer." Colby said taking his shirt off.

"You don't have to come to bed with me. I can go to bed all by myself." Charlie said when he noticed his boyfriend start to undress.

"No. When you go to bed I go to bed plus we have a tv in here so I can just hold you until I fall asleep." Colby said as he stood there in his boxer briefs and tank top.

Colby made his way over to the bed and climbed under the covers. He knew that Charlie missed it the most. He loved the way that Charlie would cling to him whenever they were sleep. He wouldn't dare try to move because he loved the feeling of his cold skin against his hot skin.

"Charlie."

"Yeah babe."

"I love you."

Colby wrapped his arm around Charlie making sure not to squezze too tight and hurt him.

"I love you too Colby."

I know that this chapter wasn't filled with all the good juicy stuff that makes you scream for more but think of this as one of the boring filler chapters that gets you closer to the end. I promise that next chapter will be better and filled with all the good juicy bits that you desperately want.

I hope that everyone enjoyed this chapter. Don't forget to review!
