Voices slowly filtered into Leon's brain, but his senses were still off.
He could tell that something propped his head and he was outside, seeing as seagulls cried around him. But he couldn't seem to open his eyes for some reason. His head felt like there was fluff in it and his lids were too heavy...
A bottle was uncorked and then he smelled something sharp.
He grimaced as he jerked his head away from the smell. "-way from me," he groggily demanded. He heard the unmistakable exclamation of his partner as he lifted a hand to rub his eyes.
"Leon!"
He abruptly stilled as he realized that the voice came right above him. He opened his eyes and stared at Sora's face from upside down, her eyes a little glossy from impending tears. She can't be that close to me unless... He turned his head to the side as far as he could, spotting some black spandex and her tan skin.
His head was on her lap.
Her. Lap.
His pulse started racing again.
"Mr. Oswald," called out Dr. Kate from her kneeling position right next to him. He gladly focused his attention on the doctor rather than the fact that he was partly on top of Sora. "How are you feeling?"
He blinked once at the doctor. Blinked twice at Sora's worried face and then quickly looked back at the doctor went the earlier symptoms started up again.
"I underwent a cardiac arrest," he gravely informed the doctor.
Sora softly gasped, placing a hand over her mouth. Dr. Kate did the same, but she quickly cleared her throat for several moments and even coughed.
"Can Leon still be my partner?" Sora asked with some sorrow. She was thinking about Ken's condition that led him off of the stage back when he first came to the stage. She wasn't sure what she'd do if Leon couldn't perform with her anymore. Sure, she'd still want to go on dates with him, but, well, they've been a pair for over two years now.
The stage wouldn't be the same without him.
Her eyes watered some more. She looked down at his solemn face, the action causing a tear to slip out. "I'll still go out with you," she firmly told him, placing a hand on the side of his face. "Heart problems or not."
His heart thudded loudly, immediately prompting Leon to look at Dr. Kate to diagnose him. Kate's hand was pressed tightly against her mouth as she watched the duo's interaction. Their faces... Sora looked like she just found out he had a terminal disease and Leon's expression was practically begging Kate to fix him.
A chortle came out, but Kate quickly covered it over with a cough. She took a moment to compose herself and then she folded her hands on her lap.
"Mr. Oswald, your heart is fine."
Sora sighed with relief. Leon looked skeptical.
"Your symptoms are normal," Kate reiterated. "Just follow my instructions thoroughly, let the symptoms come, whether they're stronger or not, and you'll do fine." With a chuckle, she took in the both of them in front of her. "You might come to like them."
"Is there anything I can do?" Sora asked.
Kate smiled. "Make sure he eats something."
Sora nodded decidedly and Leon gave Kate a flat stare.
