Chapter 8-

Raivis felt like he was falling into darkness. He didn't feel pain, and he almost felt happy. A smile appeared on his face as he stared at the darkness, but then lights began to flood. He began to hear sounds and noises. That smile simply vanished, before his eyes slowly began to open.

He first stared at the ceiling that was above him, before his eyes lowered and he looked around. "W-where am I?" he asked softly, his voice hoarse from not drinking anything.

"Eduard…he's awake" came the voice from Toris, before he shot up and ran over to Raivis. The blonde's eyes looked over to the one that had spoken, before he blinked. His eyes then wavered over to Eduard as he appeared next to Toris. "Thank god your awake Raivis" Eduard said with a hint of worry.

Raivis sat up slowly, before he stared at the two. He then looked around, before panicking lightly. His head went down to his left hand, before they closed. "H-He…left d-didn't he?" Raivis asked, as he opened his eyes again, staring deeply into the sheets that covered his body.

"He brought you to the hospital, and sat here for three days, worried sick about you. But then he got called up by his boss and had to go home." Toris told him as he looked over at Eduard.

"If that was the case, then why is my ring gone?" he asked his eyes moving up to the two, a glare visible on his face.

"Because…" but before Eduard could finish, another voice finished his sentence. "Because, I was not sure that you would still want to be with me," Ivan said, as he walked into the room slowly.

The blonde's face lightened greatly as he looked over at Ivan. "I-Ivan…" he breathed, tears coming to his eyes once more. He wasn't sure if he would ever see the man that he loved ever again.

Toris and Eduard looked back over to Raivis, before they smiled softly. "We don't like that you two are together, but it is apparent that you two can't be separated, so we are okay with it. Just, Ivan…" Toris stopped and turned toward Ivan, before he had the face of death on his face. "If you hurt Raivis, I will personally kill you."

Ivan chuckled softly at the threat, but nodded. "Of course, I wouldn't hurt Raivis. I might do my usual, but I wouldn't hurt him in any other way" he said with a smile, his eyes moving to the blonde.

Raivis shivered at the thought about what Ivan usually did, and closed his eyes. "Thank you Toris, Eduard," he said with a soft smile before he opened his eyes.

Ivan walked out smiling, as he pulled the ring out and placed it back on Raivis's finger. "How about, we just elope" he said with a chuckle in the blonde's ear. This caused Raivis to blush furiously, before he nodded lightly. "Da!" he said happily, before he kissed Ivan's cheek.

The next night, Ivan and Raivis eloped, and well, you know how it ended.
