He tried to get up but every muscle in his body aches and refused to even try.

Earth's POV:

I saw air get shot down by something suddenly. "What the hell?!" I stood up. I panicked and broke the window, I jumped out and didn't land on my feet, but landed on my side. I grunted as I got up, I brushed off the dirt and ran towards the forest. Aton of thorns scratched me, but I didn't care whatsoever. It took awhile to find him, "where the hell?.." I said to myself. I finally found him, he was bleeding Horribly, bruised, and scratched everywhere, both of his wings were torn up. I didn't say anything and immediately picked him up. I made my way around the forest, trying to get out as soon as possible. I got out of the forest and scanned for a hospital, any hospital. I found one but it looked like it way miles away. "Shit.. Fuck it" I said, while running at full speed, also trying not to drop him. The people who liked to walk midnight walks stared. Nobody asked anything. "Fucking assholes." I thought while running. I prayed the hospital had open slots for more monsters to randomly come in. I quickly got tired because the weight of air and me trying to run with his weight. I was forced to slow down, I couldn't physically run any more. I took a breather for a second and went back to running. "Stay with me, air." I tried motivating myself to run faster. I was close to the hospital now but my lungs were burning. "I'm sure someone in the hospital saw me by now.. Right?" I thought. Most likely not. "Fucking hell." I ran faster towards the hospital, trying my best not to trip on something stupid. I quickly made it to the hospital but it felt like hours to. The front lady looked startled, "my Lord! What happened?!" She asked. "No time to explain, please just give him help!" I pleaded. "Right away, sir!" She called for some nurses and doctors. They brought me to an emergency room and had me lay him down. "Sir, you're going to have to wait in the waiting room for now." One of the nurses said. "But-" "sir. Please go." She demanded. I didn't want to start a argument so I left the room and sat down in a chair in the waiting room. I started to kick my leg due to stress. Some people stared, and others ignored. I felt like I was hyperventilating. "God.." I whispered to myself. I waited hours for a nurse or a doctor.. Or somebody to come out and tell me he's okay. "Earth wubbox!" I heard someone call out for me. I turned to see a nurse standing by the open door. "Please come with me." She said calmly. I got overly excited and got up in less in a second. I followed her to the room. She opened the door and let me inside. I saw air and got excited again. "The results of the damage will come back soon. We will allow you to stay in here with him just incase something happens." She said. "Yes ma'am." I replied back to her. Today I use my manners. She closed the door behind her and I sat down in a seat by his bed. I looked at him upset. "I shouldn't have let this happened to you.. It's my fault" I sighed to myself. I knew it wasn't, it was whoever fucking shot him fault. I closed my eyes and leaned back. I waited a few minutes for the nurse or doctor to come back. The doors opened and the same nurse came in. "Alright, they have the results." She went on, "surprisingly, he doesn't have any broken bones! He has a little brain damage, because his hat was there to pretect his head." She said. "Is his brain damage gonna be a worry?" I asked her. "No, hopefully. He may act off for a few days." I sighed in relief. "We also found the cause of his wings..." She went on again, "his right wing has a hole in it that looks like a gun shot hit through it. But anything could hit it really-.." She pointed to his right wing. "He needs rest for a couple days... I already called the hotel owner to call whoever you work for." She said. "Wha- how?" I asked, in a confused expression. "We have our ways." She replied back, "and you need to supervise him, if we sent him home someone would need to watch him to make sure he doesn't do anything that could harm him." She added on. "Okay.. But why can't one of the employees or someone else to supervise him?" I asked. "Well, you're the only one whom is also in his dorm." She answered. "And-" "I will not be answering anymore questions, I have other patients you know." She said, leaving. "Okay.." I said, tapping my fingers together. "She never told me what to press if something happens.. Maybe I go out in the hallway and scream out 'NURSES!' or something.." I said to myself. "Whatever I'm sure there's something they have around here to call out.." I got up and looked around; the cabinets, drawers, floor, under chairs.. Expect for around the bed. I cautiously looked around. I saw a remote to change the channel on the miniture TV and stuff. At the bottom it had a red button. I assumed that's what do press when something happens unexpectedly. I messed around with the channel buttons for a bit until air's hands started moving a bit. I dropped the remote in shock and stood there, like a dumbass. His eyes slowly opened up, and looked around. "AIR!" I excitedly said, I grabbed the remote and pressed the red button. "I thought you died!.." I wanted to hug him, though I knew I would've hurt him if I did. "W-..wha-.." He stuttered out, his breath hitched when he tried to speak. A minute passed of me almost crying, and then a different nurse came in. "What's wrong?" She asked. "He awoken" I said back to her. "Oh!" She went back out to get the other nurse, and the other nurse came back in quickly. "Okay, sir, are you in pain?" She asked him. His breath hitched, but nodded a bit. "Okay, stay still and I'll call a doctor." She quickly went out and came back in with a doctor, while I was standing there, confused. The nurse and doctor talked for a second and the nurse went out, came back in with a needle and some medicine in her hand. She handed it to the doctor, the doctor quickly put some medicine in the needle and gave air a numbness shot. They were doing things I couldnt even keep track of.. They werent even paying attention to me, so I stood there confused. They soon left. Air was now sitting up, looking tired as hell. I looked down to his hand and held it. He looked at me, "...wha-.." He tried to say. "For your emotional support." I smiled. He tried to grin but failed. I pulled a chair over to where I was standing, and sat down. I sighed and rested my head on the bar of the hospital bed. "Don't talk, it'll hurt you." I said to him. He couldn't do anything other than nod or shake his head. I was very tired, I got comfortable and prepared to fall asleep, because yes. And I did.

Airs POV:

I was so confused, there first was doctors and nurses, and now I'm alone in here with earth, who was talking to me. I was trying to speak everytime he told me something. But one thing was running through my mind: "why did he save me? I'm not that special." And I wasn't, I wasn't special enough for more than at least 5 people to like me, I wasn't special enough to have a friend group, I wasn't special enough to do things you'd do on a daily basis, but I WAS special enough to have someone care enough about me to the point where they'd give me emotional support. It's been forever since I've felt safe by someone, it's been forever since I've felt alive by someone, it's been forever since.. Since I've had a genuine friend. And I am grateful for that.. I felt safe holding his hands, more safer than how safe I feel when I'm around my parents. I closed my eyes and tried to move around, stretch my muscles a bit, but yikes, everytime I tried to it burned like hell. So I just sat there. Staring into space.
