Alrighty! so this is the other prompt people seemed to want (Nico is on a lot of pain meds after surgery for something and keeps switching between languages. Will thinks it's adorable.) I also decided to combine it with a Trans AU prompt because I personally wanted to do that :)) I hope you enjoy!

Nico's eyes fluttered open like the wings of a butterfly. It was bright and Nico found himself with a piercing headache when he looked around. He took a deep breath and tried again. He wanted to move his head, but when he tried to lift his neck up, his chest ached and he flopped back down, huffing.

Nico heard shuffling beside him and was barely able to turn his head and see what was making noise. It was Will. His beach curls and sunshine skin. Gods, Nico couldn't stop staring at him. Will looked at Nico and let out a breath. He stood up and sat on the edge of Nico's hospital bed.

"Hey, darlin'," Will greeted as he ran his fingers through Nico's ink black locks. Nico couldn't help but smile at him.

"Hi," Nico said as he leaned into Will's hand. Will's brows furrowed and Nico wondered what the matter was. "What's wrong, love?"

Will's expression was one of surprise before he smiled warmly and chuckled. "Sweetheart," he sighed. "You aren't speaking English." Will cupped Nico's cheek.

Nico scowled. He was speaking English. Of course he was, he would know... right? "I am." Nico pouted, attempting to cross his arms over his chest but realizing that his entire chest was wrapped. He glared at the wrapping, trying to remember why exactly he was here and why his entire chest was covered in bandages and had what looked like bags? Pumps? Drains? Attached to it.

Will chuckled once more. At both Nico's confusion and his defiance. "Darling, you're speaking Italian," Will said gently. "Also, stop glaring at your bandages, you got top surgery, remember?" Will's eyes were so stunning Nico almost missed what he was saying.

"I... oh!" Nico exclaimed and let out a giggle. "I forgot. Also why can't I feel my chest?" His tone was one less of concern and more of amusement, like he was floating.

Will let out a breathy laugh and leaned down to kiss Nico's forehead. "Well that I could understand. Now you're speaking ancient Greek," Will then kissed Nico's nose. "Also, you don't have much feeling because of the surgery, you'll get some back later once you heal." Nico was confused about what Will was talking about, but he didn't really care. Will was here and warm and Nico just wanted to cuddle up with him and go back to sleep.

"Can we go home? I wanna cuddle," Nico pouted, puffing out his bottom lip.

"Ah, back to Italian," Will sighed. "Honey bun, I can't understand you when you speak Italian." Will tucked a piece of Nico's hair behind his ear.

Nico felt like crying. He whined and lifted his arms in an attempt to reach for Will. Though when he did so, his chest hurt again. A tear rolled down his cheek.

"Aw, baby," Will cooed as he leaned down and kissed Nico's tears away. "Why are you crying? I'm sorry I can't understand you." Will frowned.

Nico huffed. "Cuddles." Nico stated, hoping Will would understand.

Will grinned. "That's English, love. Thank you," he said softly. "And of course we can cuddle, we just gotta get home first. Then I'm all yours." Will grinned and kissed Nico's pout away.

Nico kissed Will back eagerly deepening it, not wanting Will to let go. But, Will had to pull back. "Noo," Nico groaned, his lips desperately searching for his boyfriend's.

"I'm sorry hun, but I'm gonna go get the nurse and see if you can be discharged." Will explained. He ran his fingers through Nico's hair again.

Nico still couldn't quite comprehend what Will was saying. He tilted his head in confusion and pinched his eyebrows.
