Chapter 15

A doctor knocked on the door of the relatives room before entering and smiled at Paddy & Liam. "Hello, Im Dr. Cameron. We've had the results back from the test, Aaron had an allergic reaction to the anaesthetic we used during the procedure. I'm pleased to tell you that the anaesthetic usually wears off about two to three hours after the operation, So we can begin treating him again soon. We have taken another blood sample, to confirm the blood poisoning and to see if there is any trace of the anaesthetic left in his system. As soon as the results come through, I'll let you know."

"He's gonna be ok?" Liam asked

"We're not out of the woods yet, Mr...?"

"Turner."

Dr. Cameron nodded before continuing "Mr. Turner. But we are fairly confident he'll recover. The fact that he's awake is a very good sign."

"Can we see him?"

"You may. But I would still like to keep it to one visitor at a time."

Liam nodded understandably and looked at Paddy "You go."

"Don't be silly, Get in there before I drag you in there. Aaron will want to see you."

Liam nodded and left. He took the short walk to Aaron's room and his heart swelled as he looked through the window and saw Aaron sitting up in the bed, smiling as he noticed him.

"Hey you" Aaron croaked when Liam entered the room

"I'm so sorry Aaron!" Liam sobbed unable to hold back the tears any longer.

"Hey, ssh, It's ok." Aaron soothed "I'm still here aren't I?"

"Only just, no thanks to me. You've got blood poisoning babe."

"I know, And If i could reach out without it hurting, I'd hold your hand. Come on Li, stop crying, please? You'll smudge your eyeliner!"

Liam laughed and gently wiped his eyes "I'm sorry."

"Stop apologising!" Aaron smiled.

Liam nodded his head and took Aaron's hand. "Look, there's something important I wanna tell you, A little bit more about me. But I want to wait until you're stronger."

Liam could see fear clouding over Aaron's blue eyes. "What is it, Li? What's going on?"

"Look, I can't tell you yet. You're supposed to be resting. It's ok, I'm not leaving you or anything, It's just something else about my past. Basically the reasons behind one of our songs, You can remember "Please Don't Go" can't you?"

"I think so.." Aaron replied, confused

"Look, it's nothing to worry about. You come first ok, Forget what I said and just concentrate on getting better." Liam smiled, planting a kiss onto Aaron's head.

"Your piercings still feel weird, you know?"

"You'll get used to it! Tyler did!"

"Who's Tyler?"

Liam mentally kicked himself and covered his mouth "No-one. An ex. Sorry."

Before Aaron could comment further, a nurse came into the room. "Good news Mr. Livesy! The anaesthetiuc has left your system so we can begin treating you again! I'm just going to give you a little something for the pain, ok? There may be some side effects, but nothing for you to worry about. You'll feel a bit light headed and woozy for a while, Maybe a bit hyperactive, but it's all normal." The nurse smiled taking out a rather large needle from the tray in her hands. Aaron felt Liam grab his hand and cling onto it tightly.

"You ok?" Aaron asked. All he got in response was a simple nod, from a now very pale Liam.

"This will just feel like a little scratch, Mr. Livesy." The nurse smiled.

Liam watched as the needle slid into Aaron's arm, and he felt himself go dizzy before darkness engulfed him.

eeeee

Liam groaned as his head pounded, he woke up and found himself lying on the sofa in Aaron's room. "Ugh..What happened?"

"You fainted!" Aaron laughed

"No..Please tell me I didn't!"

"For someone who's got so many tattoos..."

"Thats different though. Those needles just look like a pen. That thing was brutal." Liam replied, sitting up and rubbing his head.

"Aw cool! Look! They gave me a Hello Kitty plaster!" Aaron squealed, yanking up the sleeve on his hospital gown.

Liam groaned and put his head in his hands. He could live with fainting, but dealing with a very hyperactive 19 year old was something he wasn't sure he could do.

eeee

Chas sat outside the hospital room, cradling a cup of coffee. She smiled as she saw Liam cross the room and stroke Aaron's forehead. She hoped that for her son's sake, things were going to be ok now, and that her boy's heart would never be broken again. She didn't realise that day, how wrong she could of been.
