“I don’t wanna know,” he turned back to Jas and his his face in his chest.
The doctors came in and sat down in a nearby chair. “So, as you know he does not have powers…for right now. If our calculations are correct your powers will return to you in a month. Don’t get excited just yet. To make sure you’re power’s will return we have to have a blood letting where ever the wound is. That’s the source and how it is spreading through your body. We can do that tomorrow if you’d like.”
Jas held him close and nodded as the doctors spoke “what’s the percentage of living?” He asked softly, gently stroking Nick’s hair and pressing him close to his body “what are the risks of getting his powers back?”
"He'll live. Then again if we don't get this subtance out of his body he could die. The stuff that is in his blood stream is potentionally poisons to his blood type. If he had been any other blood type then he would be find. This bullet was speciaclly for him. So, he can get his powers back without doing this or we can do it he'll get his back back for sure and he won't die."
Jas glanced down at Nick “why do you always have to be so difficult when it comes to preserving your life my love?” He teased, kissing his cheek. “Do you want to go through with the surgery?” He asked.
"I mean if it keeps me from dying then yes. I'll be going under right?" he asked.
"Yes, you will be under. It makes it easier for the blood to come out," they explained.
Jas nodded “are we starting the surgery now?” He asked, sitting up on the bed and looking over at Nick
"Whatever time you want. We're ready for him," the doctors stood up.
"You pick," Nick mumbled.
Jas thought for while before nodding and standing “if it helps him,” he said with a nod. He kissed Nick roughly, cupping his cheek to bring him closer “I love you my savior. I’ll be waiting for outside, Alright?”
"O-Okay…" sighed and sat up. He kissed him once more, not wanting him to leave. Nick lifted his shirt so they could start.
Jas waited outside the surgery room in a chair across from the door. He curled up and soon fell asleep after a few hours. He slept fitfully and jolted awake when a doctor shook his shoulder "Is everything alright?" he asked, standing up and rubbing the sleep from his eyes
"Yeah, he's asleep right now. He made sure to get it all out. We don't even know what to call this it looks alive." he showed the tray to Jas before covering it up. "You can go see him if you like. He'll wake up in a few minutes."
Jas nodded, flinching when the doctor showed him the thing that was in Nick. He thanked the doctors and nurses and went inside to see Nick. Sitting at his bedside, he took his hand and pressed his lips to the back of it. He shut his eyes “my love, my most treasured, damn You for making me so soft and emotional.” He laughed softly and gazed at Nick
Nick's fingers wrapped around Jas's even though he was still asleep. He hummed and latched onto Jas's arm.
“Even in Sleep you cant be alone, my poor baby.” He chuckled softly and slid in next to Nick, careful not to move him too much or any of the wires that were connected to him. He pressed a kiss to his head and smiled “I’m right my angel. Don’t worry. I’m not going anywhere.”
A few minutes later Nick woke up to Jas laying beside him. "Hi…." his voice was soft and delicate.
“Hi beautiful one.” He kissed his head and smiled “how ya feeling, darling?” He nuzzled his neck and looked up at him
"Out of it…" he laughed and then winced. "Still….can't laugh," he smiled softly. Nick's eyes looked tired and it felt like the pain would never stop.
“Sleep a little my dearest one.” He scooted up on the bed so that Nick’s head was close to his chest. Jas kisses the top of his head and stroked his hair. He cupped nick’s Cheek and gently tilted his head up to hiss his lips. “Your absolutely gorgeous when you first wake up, you know that right?”
“Am I?” He smirked and pecked Jas’s lips. His eyes closed as he let Jas touch his hair and face.
“As handsome as the devil himself.” Jas reassured, gently running his hand through Nick’s hair before gently lifting the shirt to take a peek at the stitches
“How scandalous…” he teased feeling his shirt being pulled. If you wanted…to touch me…you could have just…asked,” he smirked lightly.
Jas rolled his eyes playfully and gently touched the area around the scars, he nodded in satisfaction and curled back around Nick, his hand resting gently on his lower back. “If you didn’t want me touching you, you wouldn’t have been smiling like that right now, would you darling one? But fine, I’ll ask next time I want to make sure your stitches are done properly.” He kissed his head and shut his eyes. After a few moments of silence, he lifted his head and gazed down at Nick “do you know what that thing was they pulled from you was?” He whispered softly
He shook his head. "I don't… they didn't show me remember…..I was asleep." Nick pulled Axel back down. "I want…your warmth…"
He nodded and shuddered slightly. “I’m right here, dear.” He gently nuzzled into Nick’s neck and tangled their legs together. He pulled the blankets over them both and wrapped him in his arms “better?”
"Yeah…" he whispered. "I know…you haven't…seen me, but…is it alright…if I…sleep for a bit?" he asked softly stroking Jas's hair.
