189 Dannys POV
I ran to Toms house the second I got the text from Dougie, cursing the fact I had overslept. Dougies text had woken me up, telling me that Tom had seriously hurt his leg and now Harry and Dougie were taking him to hospital, just in case he had broken it or something. I reached the door just as I heard a scream of pain from Tom, which made me sprint the last few feet to the living room, finding him screaming and crying in pain, crying out whenever someone touched him.
"Tommy! Tommy baby, whats happened?! What did you do?!" I shouted, falling next to my lover straight away, wiping away his tears. I hissed when I saw the cut on his head, figuring he must have fallen over and hit his head. "its going to be okay honey, we're going to sort this out, okay? Come on, I'll carry you to the car." I didn't give Tom much choice, just (carefully, always carefully) put one arm under Toms shoulder, the other under his good leg, trying not to jostle the other as I picked him up. Tom still cried out, clawing at my tshirt in agony. "shhh, baby, shhh, I've got you now. I'm not going to hurt you, I promise, just shhh." I whispered, cradling the crying blonde in my arms, trying to comfort him by kissing his head, it did nothing.
"Dougie, go get Mickey or something, while we get Tom to the car, okay?" Harry gently kissed Dougies nose, something that usually stopped him from panicking, he was holding it in quite well right now, but I guessed it was best that we did distract him though, just for a little while. Dougie ran off upstairs, and Harry took hold of Toms possibly broken leg, keeping it upright. Together, we managed to get Tom to the car, laying him on the backseat comfortably. "shhh, shhh Tom, shhh. Its alright, its gunna be okay." I got in after Tom, managing to fit in behind him, wrapping my arms around his tiny little waist.
Soon, Dougie was back out again, carrying Minnie Mouse, he jumped into the car and gave me the toy, barely having time to strap himself in as Harry drove off. Tom cried the whole way to the hospital, eventually just crying into me, squeezing my arm painfully. "its okay, shhh, we're going to sort it out. We're going to stop the pain and sort it out. Shhh." I whispered the whole time, stroking Toms blonde hair, pressing us close together. I tried not to enjoy our closeness and tried to instead focus on the fact that Tom was in pain, he needed my love and comfort, not me practically swooning because we were so close for the second day running.
Finally, we got to the hospital, so I picked up the crying Tom, carrying him into A&E, luckily it wasn't too full, so hopefully we would get sorted pretty quickly.
190 Toms POV
My leg was honestly so, so painful today, with every beat of my heart, my leg shot a huge wave of splicing pain up my whole body, which was making my head pound in time with it. I had given up completely on trying to not pretend I was in pain, or stay away from the guys and the toys, I just needed some more comfort today, to ease the throbbing. So now I was clinging to Dannys shirt, and Minnie Mouse, crying uselessly into his already soaking wet chest. "shhh, baby, its gunna be alright. Its not long now, we'll ease the pain soon." Danny was whispering, stroking his fingers across my hip, I tried not to cringe. I hadn't completely forgotten everything due to my current pain, I was still very aware of how disgusting I was.
"Thomas Fletcher?" a nurse finally called, so again, Danny picked me up and carried me to a waiting room, and my panic levels went up tenfold. I finally realised where I was, and how much I hated hospitals, they were horrible places, people died here! People came here when they had nervous breakdowns, and when they had nervous breakdowns, they left! Thats exactly what my dad did, he had a nervous breakdown, went to hospital, and left 2 days after he had come home! I didn't want to be in here, where people decided to leave the people they were supposed to love, I hated being here!
"right so you've hurt your leg?" the friendly looking nurse smiled gently at me, I shook my head, I just had to get out of here! Before she touched me and realised there was something wrong, something wrong with me all over, I just needed to get out of here, before anyone realised there was something wrong. "hey, Tommy, you don't need to be brave right now, tell the nurse whats happened." Danny encouraged, holding me on the bed a little, his heavy hands on my shoulders, comforting but restraining. "n-n-nothings happened! I'm fine!" I lied, she was also going to touch me too! I didn't want her to touch me either, cause she might discover the cuts, or the bruises. I was covered in bruises right now, because my skin was so weak, because of my awful diet, I hated the bruises so much. They looked even more ugly than my face.
"Tom! You don't need to lie, or be brave. Look, he's hurt his leg, fell over or something, hit his head on the table too." Danny warned, then explained nicely to the nurse what had happened. "right, so how did you manage to fall over then?" the nurse asked, looking at me with pity, like I was helpless in all this. "nothing, I was just, walking and fell. I'm fine! Its just a bump and a bruise." I whimpered, I couldn't even remember how I managed it, I just know I fell over and hurt my leg. "aw, well lets see if we can get you fixed up. We'll have to x-ray your leg just to check for breakages, because looking at this bruising, it looks like a break." The nurse smiled condescendingly, putting my teeth on edge. "its not a break! Its fine!" I cried out, I did not want to be x-rayed! I did not want any of this! I was fine, I couldn't spend this much time here! These places changed people, made them want to leave! I cried out helplessly, wanting just to go home, and curl up under a blanket in my music room.
"aw, baby, stop it. Its alright, its just an x-ray okay? Just an x-ray. Nothing is gunna happen." Danny squeezed me close, letting me soak his shirt again with tears. "I don't wanna go!" I cried, whimpering uselessly because I really wanted to get out of here, I hated places like this. They changed peoples minds, people died, and they strapped you down to beds here! They sent me to sleep and held me down to the bed for over a week only a few months ago! I couldn't be here when stuff like that happened! I didn't want stuff like that to happen, I just wanted to go home and be safe!
"Tommy, honey, calm down. You need to calm down now. You're hyperventilating." Danny bent down to my level, stroking my hair, smearing blood across my head at the same time. He had a few blood spots on his shirt too! Oh god, I ruined his shirt! How could I be so selfish and ruin his shirt?! "I-I can't! I-I'm sorry! I-I'm so sorry!" I heaved, so glad the others had been made to stay in A&E and the nurse had gone away, this was so horrible, so babyish, but I couldn't help it! I was just, so, so scared. "its okay baby, shhh. Calm down, before you pass out, okay? Its all going to be okay soon, I promise, I won't let anyone hurt you. I'll be right here, right beside you, all the time." Danny promised, managing to calm me a little. "p-promise to stay with me. Promise." I whimpered. "yes, I promise, I promise you I will be here the whole time, making sure you'll be fine." Danny kissed my forehead then my lips gently, not letting go until I was calmer and breathing.
