Chapter 8

Patrick's POV

A few minutes after I had gotten enough strength to talk and move, I see a familiar face run into the room excitably
I smile as he yells for me and I of course answer.
Saint hops up onto the small bed and I hold him closely.
"P-Patrick?" Pete says in a cracked tone
"Pete." I reply, trying to contain the smile on my face
He slowly walks in with Declan in his arms. I smile widely as he quickly sets Declan down and runs into my arms.
"Well hi there" I say between giggles
He just holds onto me tightly as he begins to speak
"I thought I was going to lose you." His voice hoarse
"I'm here baby, I'm not leaving" I say as I kiss the top of his head. He slowly lets go and picks Declan up and back into his arms. I then noticed that Saint was fast asleep, cuddled into my side.
Mr.We--well hello Patrick! Dr. Urie excitably says
I smile as he checks my vitals and slightly frowns. He covered it up right away but I noticed.
"I think we need to do some blood tests Patrick" he says slowly
I nod as he goes to get the supplies
Sighing as he came back

I watched as the Crimson liquid filled a small capsule. It was kind of mesmerizing.
Dr. Urie bandaged my arm and went off. I noticed the gauze go red in some spots but I ignored it for now.
Pete smiled warmly as I slowly fall asleep. Holding the two small boys in each arm. I missed them so much.

Petes POV

As Patrick fell asleep with the boys, I quickly took a picture and uploaded it to Instagram with the caption " Family first 🙏🏻"
Soon my phone exploded with comments of " awe!" And "is Patty okay?!"
I smiled at the publicity that our small band had. After Declan had came along we had agreed on a break in order to focus on our baby. Andy and Joe had also been newly weds so it was a perfect time to go on hiatus. Maybe one day we will come back.

I turned off notifications for Instagram and then reposted to Twitter. Then closing my phone and watching my small family. Knowing one day I might lose them. I quickly vanished that thought as tears sprang in my eyes, Pleading to come out.
Declan had soon woken up so I took the squirming baby out of Patrick's arms. Holding him tightly as he giggled and played with my hair. He seemed so fascinated with the color, although it was just blond with darker roots.
Soon Saint had also woken up and was complaining of missing his uncles. I sigh and went to get him some Legos, promising to let him see them soon.

Dr.Uries POV

After I had taken Patrick's bloodwork I worriedly sent them to the lab to be immediately tested. Fearing the worst.... Hoping the best.
A few hours later I tested Patrick's vitals and they seemed okay, except for his white blood cell count. After the incident it has been very low and I'm very concerned.
The bloodwork came in a few hours later, my fear had became a reality when he was positive for Leukopenia. A disease that involves a very low amount of White Blood Cells which means he's susceptible to illness at a higher rate, and any illness is deadly.
I head to the Wentz's room, to announce the sad news which can be avoided if they're careful.

Patrick's POV

"Leukopenia?" I say slowly. " Will I be okay?"

Dr. Urie nods and smiles. "As long as you stay away from people who are sick and you stay out of the public for long periods of time... You should be okay."

I nod and frown. I want to be able to live my life without worry. I want to take my boys out. Tears began to slip as I realize how limited our lives will be. Pete rushes to my side and holds me tightly, promising that everything will be okay. But I'm scared that everything will be okay, when I'm gone.
