Chapter 2
"Miss, miss"I hear a voice say shaking me out of my sleep, I've been sitting here for at least an hour and a half if not more, "yes"I say, "I think there's somebody who want's to see you"the doctor says, it takes me a minute but then the events of the day come back in a rush and I remember the somebody is Fitz. I let the doctor take me back, she said the others couldn't come with me because he's in the icu and only one person could see him at a time. As we get closer I realize my hands are shaking as I don't know what to expect. We get to the door and before we go in the doctor tells me exactly what's happening, she says that his heart has stopped once but that they got him back, and he's stable now and he should be awake shortly.
I very gently open the door and go inside, and honestly what I see scares me. Fitz is lying there on the bed wrapped in a warming blanket, iv in his arm. He looks a lot more pale than the last time that I saw him, a lot more frail and smaller than normal. I very timidly grab the chair by his bed and sit down on it, I very gently grab his hand,my thumb rubbing circles on his palm. "god Leo, I'm so scared, I can't make it without you, you gotta wake up love, I love you more than i've probably ever said before"I say brushing tears off of my cheek, god I can't be crying right now. I take a deep breath and sit and watch him for awhile. Suddenly I feel a hand squeeze mine and I realize he's waking up. "Jemma,where am i"he barely murmurs, "hey love, your in the hospital, your safe, I need to get someone alright, i'll be right back"I say, "yeah"he says quietly. I go out and to the nurses station, and I let the nurse know that he's awake. She goes back with me and we go inside to wait for the doctor to come, but in the mean time she decides to get his vitals. "how you feeling"she asks, "cold and tired"he says, "k that's normal, do you mind if I get your temperture"she asks, "no"he says. She gently rolls him onto his side and I realize how she's going to do it but honestly it doesn't bother me.
I sit in front of him and try to keep him distracted but I can still tell it's painful as the nurse rubs his back with one hand, "hey your doing great,almost done"she says and then it is. "95, thats good your temp's coming up"she says. At this point the doctor comes in and tells me it's time to go to the waiting room for a bit until he's done and then I can come back. I go outside to get some air and I realize just how grateful I am that he's awake, I know that he's not out of the woods yet but he's alive,he woke up.
