Karl woke up from his operation the next morning. Sapnap was beside him when heard struggling beside him he turned to see his lover awake and looking uncomfortable he was squirming around in bed obviously scared.
"Hey buddy it's ok I'm here alright" sapnap said pushing his brown hair out of his eyes. "Where am I?!" Karl whispered screamed.
"You're in the hospital baby" sapnap said stroking his hair still.
"You had a heart attack sweetie" sapnap said. "What?" Karl said
"Am I going to be ok" he asked and sapnap couldn't really give him an answer because he really wasn't sure.
"I don't know baby I really don't know" he said kissing his forehead. "I'm going to die aren't I" Karl said putting a hand over his mouth.
"You'll be ok baby I promise" sapnap said not knowing if it was true. "No I won't!" Karl sobbed.
"Hey hey hey you need to relax baby ok you have a weak heart ok" sapnap said pushing tears away from his face.
"What is this!?" Karl sobbed again noticing and tube in his nose that went into his stomach.
"It's a em" sapnap started. "Nick! Please tell me" Karl cried he said just wanting answers.
"It's a feeding tube baby" he said holding his hand. Karl sighed sadly and covered his face again sapnap starting to notice Karl had a habit of doing that. He slowly took his hands away and held them.
"The doctors put it in because you were so malnourished but it will mean you will gain weight" sapnap said rubbing his shoulder.
"No!" Karl shouted trying to pull it out of his nose.
"No Karl don't touch that ok you want to get better right?" He asked and Karl nodded sadly. "Right, you need that to get better alright" sapnap explained.
"Will I need it forever?" Karl asked "probably not the doctor said it's temporary but you might need it for a while since you have severe anorexia and bulimia, it will be in until you have a norma- healthy weight and the right amount of nutrients ok" sapnap said holding Karl's hands.
"But it will be fine ok I promise" sapnap said.
Sapnap comforted Karl for a good few hours after this conversation.
Karl let go of their hug slipping back down into bed whining slightly. "I have a head ache" he groaned "do you need me to get someone?!" Sapnap asked alarmed. "No I'm ok- can you just get me some water please" Karl asked his voice cracking and raspy,
"Y-yeah of course here" sapnap said softly taking a cup of water of the tray next to his bed. He supported Karl as he took a sip of water.
Karl sunk back into bed feeling awful everything seemed to hurt.
His head was now throbbing. "Maybe we should get someone to come" Karl said trying to make his headache go away.
"They could at least give me something that will make this dang headache go away" Karl stated.
"Yeah yeah yeah ok hun I'll call someone he said using the emergency call button.
Someone quickly came in. "Everything going ok in here" she asked. "Yeah em I have really bad headache and I was wondering if there was anything I can take for it" Karl asked hopefully.
"I'm sorry but you have surgery in less than 12 hours and you can't eat or drink in that span".
"Surgery?!" Karl questioned. "Yeah did nobody tell you?" She asked.
"No" Karl said his hand shaking in sapnaps.
They did tell sapnap but he forgot to say it to him god he was so stupid.
"They told me about it it's fine" sapnap said "I forgot to say it" he said guiltily.
"Alright then is their anything else" the doctor asked. "Yeah what's the surgery for I already had a stent" Karl asked. "Your heart was put under so much strain from the constant vomiting that the doctors think it's likely you'll have quite a few heartattack later and want to prevent that"
"And what's the fatality rate?" Karl asked no really wanting to here the answer. "There's always a chance I can't say there's not but you are with the best doctors so I wouldn't worry and you're young so please don't stress yourself it will just make the pain worse" she said turning to leave closing the blinds behind her
"I'm going to die sapnap aren't I" he sobbed. "No babe you're not ok you'll be ok I promise you I'll be here when you wake up ok babe please don't worry to much" sapnap said.
Karl continued to look scared and sapnap rubbed his soft hand. "I'm so sorry Karl if I could take it all away I would" he said kissing his head.
Karl looked away not wanting sapnap to see him so scared.
