The Heart of Mars & The Heart of Space (A Mick Mars/Tommy Thayer Love Story)

Chapter 19-Frantic Collapse Pt. 2 (Mick POV)

A/N: Things are gonna start to click in this chapter for Mick...please do enjoy!

God, I didn't Wanna let Tommy go when we got to the arena. He looked so tired and pale and as if a strong wind came up it would blow him away. I couldn't shake the bad feeling I had that something bad was gonna happen. All I could think about during Motley's soundcheck was him, I just really didn't want him going on stage tonight...but as much as I didn't Wanna let him...I just, god I can't lose him!

Thankfully, I had also managed to catch him in between Kiss' soundcheck and ours. I couldn't help but feel frantic, he looked even worse than he had been looking. I told him I didn't like the thought of him being on stage, but finally reluctantly told him if he was gonna do it to be careful as he can. He is my soulmate, the light of my life...I just...it kills me to see him feel so bad, I feel helpless.

Once we got back to our dressing rooms and began to prepare to go on stage.... Question after question was fired at me from Nikki, Vince, and T-bone. I snapped at them to shut the fuck up, and one question at a time!

"Guys! Slow down!", I snapped and then sighed.

"Mick dude, Tommy looks terrible...think he's coming down with something?", Lee asks for once serious as can be and strangely is sitting still.

"I don't know! I'm not sure what's going on.... I just want him to be ok!", I state worried. And I can't help but tear up a bit...

"Mick, have you ever thought of the fact...well I didn't Wanna say anything, but do you think maybe he could be pregnant?", Nikki asks in a matter-of-fact tone. My eyes widen and I freeze.

"It would make sense, from what you've said and what we've seen. Then we could be wrong, but if he is...well I can tell you from personal experience I've never seen someone's symptoms be that bad. Sure, it can vary with pregnancies...but not sure. I too want him to be ok." Nikki finishes off what he'd started saying. My mind is reeling...Could he be? Could my Tommy be pregnant and possibly carrying my baby? I've always wanted kids I can't deny, and I finally found the perfect partner to want/have kids with. I would be so happy if that turns out to be the case.

Our show goes great once we hit the stage, but obviously my mind is anywhere but where I'm at or what I'm doing. Mercifully, the show ends and I sprint as fast as I can to Kiss' dressing rooms, and I find my Tommy in full regalia laying down on the couch. He looks even paler than he had earlier, even under the greasepaint he's wearing, and I gently place his head in my lap. I could tell even with out him saying it, that he looked like he was gonna get sick and seemed dizzy. I was scared, no not about possibly him being pregnant but him getting hurt.

Of course, I followed Kiss to the stage and Tommy had clung to me for dear life at one point and I watched as he took the stage. It seemed like he was fighting so hard to hold back nausea, and he was making one hell of a valiant effort and somehow, he managed to make it thru most of their set and then it happened. He started to sway more and more and before I knew it, he was on his knees and I rushed out on stage, not giving a damn who saw me or what they thought but before I could get to him, Tommy had already collapsed and was on his back and he seemed very much unaware and out of it as he passed out.... I—I, my heart dropped! Paul, Eric, And Gene are gathered around...the fans are gasping, looking on in concern and I bark out to get a fucking ambulance! It's frantic to say the least! I hope he will be ok! Please let my beloved space-angel be ok!

After what seems like an eternity, medics arrive, and Tommy is still passed out. At last, we get into the ambulance and I know everyone else will follow. I sit to where I can still hold his hand, willing him to wake up. I tell the medics and all what happened and what had been going on...Hoping all the while, hoping so very much that he would be all right and if he indeed turns out to be carrying our baby...I hope the baby will be ok as well! I've never been more anxious or scared in my life!

But, the thought did manage to occur to me in my worry that if he is pregnant....well, I would of course be happy, but first things first find out for sure and making sure everything is ok or will be ok.
