Just One Half To A Whole [Jercy fic]

Chapter 27

*Percy's POV*
I rushed to the hospital

I ran stop signs and got flipped off about 20 times.

When I got there i didn't even tell the person in front that I was going in I just went it.

I went straight to Leo's room. When I got there I saw that there were many nurses and doctors in the room.

The machine that was hooked up to Leo was beeping loudly. Hephaestus was outside starring at the wall. There was a blank look on his face.

I ran up to him and asked him what happened

"I- I don't know. I was just there holding his hand and talking to him- telling him about my day- and then his life monitor started beeping and the line got all jumbled and the the nurses and doctors came it and told me to get out- and and I don't know" he said all this in a dead expression. Everything about him seemed dead. His voice, expression, face, body. Everything.

I nodded and looked into Leo's room window. Or tried too. The nurse closed the blind.

After a while of doctors and nurses coming in and out and in and out and in and out, they all left. One doctor, I'm just guessing they were the main doctor, came up to us.

Hephaestus was looking at him, probably hoping he would say something good. I hoped he said something good too but they already warned us about Leo...... Not making it.

I looked up at him, expecting the worse but I saw the doctor ha a smile on his face

"We managed to stabilize him. He had sudden heart failure, nothing to worry about, It was just a little one. He's all better now. And we also took him off the knock out drug so he should be waking up between 2 to 3 days. You were very lucky Mr. Valdez." He gave Hephaestus a pat on the shoulder and walked away

That's when Hephaestus started sobbing. He cried but fat tears that only a father could cry. He started thanking God and every god he could think of. He even thanks Leo's mom.

Seeing him cry made me cry. But not like he was crying just little silent tears. When I was done crying I stood up and walked into the room.

I saw my husband laying there. Hair all messed up and eyes sunk in. He was still the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.

A tear slipped down my face

Look at me. Talking like we're actually married.

Well I guess that's how it is when you love your best friend.
