Chapter 3~Hospital Visit?

We had gotten the perfect tree for the cabin. The place was all decked out for Christmas. We even had mistle toe hanging up above the kitchen door. I noticed there was a small present under the tree already. It read To Mia, Open Now! I glance around.

Did I really need to open it now? I look at it more closely. It reads Yes Open Now If You Found It in tiny letters. I giggle as I sit on the floor beside the tree.

I pick up the present. I open it. It was a very small gift box. In sliver paper. Inside was a key. To a home. Then a piece of paper under it. I take the paper out and open it.

It read "We own the cabin. Merry Christmas baby" I gasp. I hold the key in my hand. We were home owners together. Soon he planned on asking me to marry him.

It was a matter of time when he would ask. Maybe he was waiting for Christmas eve. Or New Years. That would be so romantic. I could hardly wait to say yes!

I had to find George and thank him for this generous gift he had given to me. I find him napping on the couch. I thought he looked so peaceful napping there. He was adorable. I nudge him gently. He did not budge. He was in a deep sleep.

"George!" I softly say his name. No answer. I check his forehead. He was burning up with a fever. "George sweatheart wake up" I demand in a louder tone.

His eyes flutter open. He coughs as he sits up. "How long was I asleep?" he yawns.

"For over two hours. And you have a fever. We need to get you checked into a hospital. First I will take your temp" I say.

I kiss his forehead then go in our bathroom. I get the thermometer. I check his temperature. He had a high fever.

"Come on. Let me drive you there" I demand.

"I will be fine. I have a cold. I need rest" he coughs.

"Come on now. I won't take no for an answer" I tell him sternly.

I help him get his coat on. Then his shoes. I get mine on. We go to his truck. I start it. It was snowing a bit but not to bad.

Then I drive him to the ER. We are soon there. And checked in right away. I was worried about him. George lays on a hospital bed. I sit beside him. The guard at our door. Then the doctor talks to him.

And runs a few tests on George.

"We will know in a few moments. I will be back when the tests come back" the doctor tells us as he heads out of the room.

I was sure it was a head cold he had. And they would give him some medication, for him. He needed to rest at home. And he would soon feel better with my TLC for him. George was falling asleep on the bench. I get up and turn down the lights for him. So he could rest while we waited.

"Mia?" he whispers.

"Get some rest" I tell him.

"Mia thank you for being here with me" he hoarsely says.

"There isn't anywhere else I would rather be George" I answer. "you know I love you and I will always be by your side no matter what"

"I know Mia. I love you to. Did you like your gift?" he says with a yawn.

"I am amazed. You are so generous to get the cabin for us. I love that place" I gush. "you are so wonderful to me"

"Because I love you" he says softly as his eyes shut and he yawns again.

I brush his hair back from his eyes.

"Get some rest George" I demand.

His eyes close. And he rests for a bit. Before long the doctor comes back inside. He had answers to why my George was sick. We both sit up. The doctor turned on the lights for us.

"George has strep throat. And a very high fever. We want him to stay here and rest over night" the doctor orders. "with the fever that is so high we are concerned he is trying to go into pneumonia. So, we would like to observe him"

"Alright" I say with a nod.

"No, Christmas Eve is tomorrow. I do not want to spend Christmas in a hospital" moans George.

"We do not need you getting worse. I do not like this either. Please George listens to the man" I beg him.

"Fine!" huffs George.

"We will get you admitted and into a private room" the doctor tells us.

"She stays with me. She will need a bed to" orders George. "I won't stay without Mia"

"Very well" says the doctor before he leaves the room.

"We can celebrate after Christmas" I remind him.

"Everything is ruined" he moans as he places his hands on his forehead.

"Nothing is ruined. We are here together and that is all that matters" I remind him.

"You do not understand Mia" he mutters. He looks so sad. I did not know why. "I have had a very special Christmas planned for you"

"It will be fine sweetheart" I promise him. "Try not to worry okay?"

He nods but looks unconvinced. Then we are soon admitted into a private room. I turn on the tv while they admit George in.

He looked cute in a hospital gown. He always looked adorable. The nurse gushes all over him. I did not blame him. At least George was getting the best care.

"This just in! Singer George Michael was admitted into the hospital. The singer is ill but the reasons are unknown. We wish you well George. Have a merry Christmas" the announcer says.

"Some Christmas" mutters George.

"George get some rest. Do you want me to get you anything from our place?" I ask and offer.

"Not now. I am going to rest" he says with a yawn.

There had to be something I could do for George to make his Christmas better.

But what?
