"He needs lots of rest. He was lucky enough that the bullet didn't pierce any vital organs in his chest but unfortunately one bullet hit the ball of the humerus. We extracted the bullet and he doesn't need any more surgeries. It will likely 4 months to heal. I advise to limit strain on his arm for a while" the doctor said to Vegas.
"As for now he is in lots of pain, he will probably not manage to move his arm without feeling excruciating pain. He will need to wear a sling for a while. We have given painkillers for now" Vegas listened carefully.
"Find a way to make it as painless as possible" Vegas ordered before walking towards Pete's room.
"Khun, I advise you to not disturb his rest"
"Shut the fuck up and do as you are asked" Vegas spitted out.
He opened the door of the room to find Pete laying on the bed with his eyes closed. Vegas took a few steps forward until you were next to him. He caressed Pete's hair.
"Are you awake?" He whispered not loud enough to wake anyone up but loud enough to be heard if he was awake.
"Mhm" Pete mumbled.
"How are you feeling?"
"Like shit but... I guess it's normal" he struggled to try to sit, and Vegas helped him to.
"Be careful, you are going to hurt yourself"
"I don't think I can hurt myself more than this"
"What happened there?"
"Just some bodyguard tasks" Pete didn't go into detail at all.
"Why are you this injured? You are so skilled, how did that even happen?"
"I was protecting Kinn and they outnumbered me"
"Pete..." he sighed "I don't want to argue, not with you in these conditions. But-"
"Then don't. I need to contact Khun Kinn"
"No way, you are resting now, don't even think about anything else"
"They need to know I'm still alive"
"You should think about yourself for once, fuck them all! You could have died in there!" Vegas shouted.
"You know that bodyguards can be easily replaced, that's my destiny. It doesn't matter how good I am, I'm bound to die on the battlefield. I'm just an expendable piece. I'm okay with that»
«Not everyone is okay with that though»
"Why are you acting so weirdly? It's not like you being this worried. I'm thankful you saved me but you have no right to tell me what to do" Pete specified.
"How can you be this stubborn even in this situation?"
"Is it because you won't be able to use me anymore?" Pete felt he could no longer be silent, he had reached the point where the camel's back was about to break and this was the last straw.
"What the fuck are you talking about?"
"You know what I'm saying, aren't you after me for my body? Take it, come on!" Pete challenged him.
"Damn it Pete! You think so low of me"
"Why do you think it is like that? Certainly not my fault. Vegas... I want to rest. Leave me alone" Pete was tired and the agitation increases the physical pain he felt.
"I... okay. It doesn't end here"
"Yeah, whatever" Pete didn't know why he was so angry. He felt very guilty for replying like that but he really didn't understand Vegas, not even one bit.
