"You can't unless you have something to stitch up the wound, otherwise there's a higher chance of bleeding out" Will said. Although he still had tears in his eyes and I could tell he was in a lot of pain he managed to keep his voice steady
"I have a sewing needle and thread from making costumes, Will that work?" I asked
"So long as it's sterilized" Will said
I quickly ran and got the needle and thread
"Do you have a bowl of some kind?" Will asked.
"Yes" I said before running and grabbing the first bowl like object I saw.
"I can't heal myself like I did for you, I don't have the energy so please promise you'll take care of me" Will said his voice shaking a little
"I'll always take care of you" I said as I kissed his cheek.
"This is going to hurt. I'm counting on you, no matter what I do or say I need you not to stop" Will said and I nodded
"What do you need me to do first?" I asked
"First I need you to fill the bowl with the alcohol, then you need to put the needle in to sterilize it when you done I'll have to put my hand in" Will said before pausing for a moment.
"My hand needs to stay in for at least a minute" Will said firmly but I could also hear the fear in his voice.
"Then you need to sew up the back of my hand, remove the bullet and sew up the front" Will said
"And what is the best way to remove the bullet?" I asked
"You need something to use something like forceps" Will said
"And I'll need something to bite down on" Will added all confidencenowgone.
I grabbed a comb for him to bite down on then got to work. I poured the alcohol in the bowl and put the needle in it. after making sure it was sterilized I took it out then I took the bandage off Will's hand and gave him the comb, he then placed his hand in the bowl. Will let out a muffled scream as if he had placed his hand in boiling water and almost took his hand out but I stopped him before he could and held his arm so he couldn't move it I then pulled him closer and held him as we waited. Will dug his fingers into my shoulder and cried as I counted in my head making my heart ache and making me hate Drew even more. I finished counting and let Will remove his hand then I grabbed the needle and threaded in. I then had listened to him cry even more as I stuck the needle into his hand. after the third stitch Will stopped screaming and crying and I felt his head fall to my shoulder.
"Will?" I asked looking up to see him passed out.
I took a deep breath to calm myself then I slowly laid him down on the bed and continued working. Although I had hated making his scream and cry I hated that I had made him pass out from pain even more.
I finished stitching the back of his hand then grabbed two small knives and turned his hand over using the knives like forceps to pull the bullet out then I then placed his hand back in the alcohol to make sure there wasn't any dirt or anything left from the bullet. I then stitched it up the got some clean cloth and bandaged his hand. I slowly got up and walked out of the room and over to the lake where I frantically washed the blood off my hands. once my hands were clean I sat back and took a shaky breath as began to get lost in despair
"Down once more to the dungeons of my black despair, Down I plunge to the prison of my mind Down that path into darkness, deep as hell Why, I ask, was I bound and chained in this cold and dismal place? Not for any mortal sin but because I prefer a gentleman's embrace. Hounded out by everyone, Met with hatred everywhere, No kind words from anyone, No compassion anywhere" I sang the I looked up towards the gods
"Why!" I yell before I buried my face in my arms and softly cry. after a moment I felt a pair of arms wrap around me
"I resent that statement" Will said
"Will! your awake!" I said as I turned to face him.
"Have I not shown you anything but kindness and compassion?" Will asked as he placed his good hand on my cheek
"But if it wasn't for me you wouldn't have gotten hurt" I said
"I would rather feel this pain then see you hurt. I know that a lot of people don't look at people like us in the best light but I still love you with everything I am" Will said and I kissed him with a smile on my face.
"Will, I have something for you" I said after I pulled away from the kiss.
"What is it?" Will asked and I reached into my pocket and pulled out a ring
"My mother's ring" Will said with tears in his eyes but when I gave it to him he placed it back in my hand
"I know it's not very masculine but I want you to keep it" Will said with a smile and I looked down at my own ring and took it off.
"Then I want you to have this, it belonged to my father" I said placing the ring in his hand and his smile widened
"Will?" I asked before pausing to work up the courage to say what I wanted
"What's wrong Angel?" Will asked
"I...I wanted to know if.....if you would come with me to Brazil" I said
"Brazil?" Will asked
"Rio de Janeiro, Brazil I've heard that it's not illegal to be guys like us" I said
"What are you saying?" Will asked
"Well...I'm not sure if they would go as far as to let us marry but if...if they did...." I said trailing off at the end
"You-You want-"Will started to say but I cut him off
"Marry me" I said taking his hands in mine
