surgery

THE NIGHT BEFORE
"Ready," Ace asks as we sit on the couch after we pack everything for our hospital bag. I was to have surgery tomorrow and I needed to stay in the hospital for a few days so Ace helped me back a bag.

"You should go eat now," I say grabbing the remote and turning on the TV. He scoots up close to me and holds my waist with his head on my shoulder. "No," he says pointing to a movie he wanted to watch.

"Why it's almost 9 it'll get late to eat," I said showing him the time on my phone. "I don't want to eat," he says and I laugh.

"You always want to eat, i'm not gonna be jealous you can go eat," I say shaking my shoulder so his head moved around.

"If you can't eat I'm not gonna shove shit in your face as I eat. If you don't eat I don't eat," he says sternly grabbing my shoulder so I stop moving. "I want you to eat tho, eat for the both of us" I say and he shakes his head.

"I'm fine and if I really need it i'll eat when you're sleeping or when you're in surgery" he says and I nod. "Fine," I say and I feel his cheeks move in in a smile.

"You're gonna be okay right," he mutters in the middle of the movie, we were now in a different position, I was laying on my back as he lay on top of me, his lower body between my legs and his head on my chest. "Of course," I say running my hands through his hair.

"It's a simple procedure, doctor said he can do it with his eyes closed," I laugh and he looks up at me. "I don't know what I would do if something were to happen to you," he whispers staring up into my eyes as he softly strokes my cheek with his thumb.

"The only thing that's gonna happen is, i'm gonna go in, your gonna cry that i'm getting sliced up and then i'm gonna sleep, you're gonna cry more that i'm not waking up and then i wake up, laugh at you and then you cry that i'm laughing at you," I laugh and he snickers, "Why am I crying the whole time".

"Cause that's what your gonna do," I say and he nods. "I'll be sure to fill that promise". "Good"

"We should sleep, we have to wake up early," I say looking at the time that said 11:30pm. "You have to promise me you're gonna be okay" Ace mumbles as his head lays in the crook of my neck.

"You're more nervous than I am" I laugh and he looks up at me. "Of course I am, if something happens to you I'm the only who has to deal with everything, you'll just be laying there," he says and I nod. "That's true,".

He kisses me softly before he picks me up as if I weighed nothing, bringing us upstairs into our room. He softly sets me down on the bed, he puts me under the covers as he takes off his shirt and pants.

He climbs up the bed with a smirk as he also goes under the covers and then holds me close.

"I love you so much," he whispers. "I love you more," I say back. He kisses my nose and then my lips, savouring the kiss he doesn't move back. I pull away after a few seconds seeing the same look of fear on his face. "I'm gonna be ok" i say and he nods. "goodnight" I say. "Goodnight my love".
——————————————

We now sit in the hospital as I put on my hospital gown. This whole morning was a big blur cause I was so tired. I think Ace ate something when I slept cause he had so much energy while I had none. He practically carried me everywhere as I fell asleep in his arms multiple times.

"I'm hungry," I mutter as I sit back in my bed. He nods telling me he would get me all the food I want when i wake up.

"Did you eat something," I ask in worry and he nods. "I ate a granola bar when you slept" he nods and I shake mg head. "That's not enough" i say and he laughs. "Says the person who's ate nothing. "This is not my choice, you don't have to fast I do so you need to eat" I say and he laughs.
