I'm SO sorry I took so long to update! I feel uber guilty. . We got a new computer and haven't installed Word yet, and I was always too lazy to get out my laptop. Also, I'm busy because I'm in a show. (This week is tech week O_O) However, those are both bad excuses. I'm just a procrastinator.
Please excuse my lack of hospital knowelege. I've only been in the ER twice: when I was born, and when I got a concussion in 3rd grade from falling off a fence.
Kurt's eyes fluttered closed and he became completely limp.
Finn's mouth fell open and it turned into a silent scream. His broad shoulders shook and his eyes squinted shut. He let his head fall onto Kurt's chest. Then he felt Kurt's chest rising and falling slowly. Finn's eyes opened. He breathed in sharply and stumbled to his feet with the unconscious Kurt in his arms.
Finn ran through the rain, seeing blurs of yellow light through the slits of his eyelids. Then he saw a flat brick building across the street. He ran across the street without waiting for the walk signal and made an approaching car honk loudly and screech to a stop. Then he stood panting, in front of the hospital he came to every time he had injured himself playing football.
He let himself suck in a few more deep breaths before charging at the glass door at the front of the building. He prepared to slam it open, but it opened automatically and he almost fell over as he stumbled into the white room.
There was a woman with a sleeping toddler in her lap, a wide eyed old man, and a chubby woman with bright red lipstick sitting in the dark green waiting chairs. They all stared at Finn.
Finn stood there trembling and dripping wet, holding what looked like a Kurt-Sized rag doll in his arms.
The lady behind the desk made a little gasp. She came out from behind the desk and said "come this way." They walked quickly down a hall way with doors on both sides. Finn's wet sneakers made squishing sounds on the carpet. The lady stopped in front of one of the doors and knocked on it softly. Finn thought she knocked too softly. He would have banged on the door so hard it might have broken down.
The doctor took much too long to open the door for Finn's liking. He was tall, but not quite as tall as Finn, and he was balding and wore huge glasses that made him look like a bug. The spectacle in his doorway didn't seem to faze him. He let Finn in and the lady nodded and closed the door as she left.
"What happened?" He said in a calm, breathy voice.
Finn stuttered, "I-I was walking and-and I saw s-something. Something in the water. Stuck to the w-wall. He hit his head. He w-was d-d-drowning. His leg! There was a wire stuck in his leg!"
"Ok, take a deep breath and calm down." The doctor said.
Finn looked at Kurt. "He can't hear you. He passed out."
The doctor chuckled, "I was talking to you. You can put him down on the bed."
Finn frowned and his grip on Kurt tightened. He did not want to let him go. Then he sighed and carefully placed Kurt on the paper covered bed. The doctor opened a cabinet, took out a pillow, slowly lifted Kurt's legs, and placed the pillow under them. Kurt grunted, coughed, opened his eyes a tiny bit, and then squinted from the bright light.
"Kurt!" Finn yelled with a goofy delighted grin. He fell to his knees beside the bed and threw himself onto Kurt, nuzzling into Kurt's shoulder. Kurt made a painful sound.
The doctor cleared his throat and tapped on Finn's shoulder. "He probably has a concussion. We'll do a cat scan to see how much damage was done. He'll also need stitches for his leg. You can wait in the waiting room if you like." He gestured towards the door.
Finn straightened up and petted Kurt's face with one finger. Kurt smiled a little bit. Finn looked up at the doctor, who gestured towards the door again. Finn reluctantly stood up and dragged his feet out the door while the doctor started asking Kurt questions like, "What is your name?" and "What day of the week is it?"
I promise to update sooner this time! ;D
