Summary: Being hardcore has a price.
He's been beaten and whipped with barbed wire and cut up with glass. He's gone through so much torment and pain, but nothing was as bad as what he went through tonight. It probably was the most painful injury he's had yet. But Chris Parks was use to the pain.
He lied in a hospital bed in a room to himself. It was quiet, but comforting to him. The only sound was from the TV, but that was barely making any sort of noise as it is. He had been here for a couple days now. The doctors said they were going to release him as soon as they made sure he was somewhat alright. They didn't want him walking out still injured.
"Out of my way, lady! That's my husband in there!" he heard a familiar voice shout.
He smiled and chuckled inside his mind. It was Carley, his wife. She was worrying her pretty little head off about this whole situation. It wasn't too long before she managed to break through the doctors and nurses to get into his room.
She went in and saw him lying in his bed. Carley was slightly out of breath with her red hair ruffled somewhat. "It took me forever to get here, but I'm here, baby. How are you feeling?"
"Better, but it still hurts..." Chris replied. His voice was a little hoarse.
Carley went up to him and stroked his thick, brown curly mane. She looked into his dark eyes. "Aww, baby, I hope you heal quickly."
"I will, I will." Chris said."These are nothing. They hurt, but I'll be back on my feet soon."
So he told her a little white lie. In reality, they hurt like hell, but he couldn't let her know that. Chris had to be strong for his wife.
She smiled. Her stressed eyes lightened up a little bit. She put her hand in his. "Okay, I'll be here with you till you get better."
Carley lightly pressed her lips against his. She sealed her promise with a kiss.
