Mark and Jack were so very excited for themselves. They were adopting. They had chosen a one and a half year old boy, named Levi. They both thought they were ready for adoption, and they had just let their families know about it too.
Mark was now laying on the couch. He chose to sleep their for the health of himself. Jack had been sick the night before, so Mark let him have the bed.
Mark had been sprawled out all over the couch, it being a hot night. He was sweating.
"Mark." Mark's eyes slowly awoke to hearing his name, but he wasn't sure if he imagined it or not.
"Mark!" Mark was now awake. He saw the clock, it was two in the morning. He didn't grab his glasses, he went straight to running to his room.
"Jack?" Mark's voice was met by Jack's groaning. Jack was lying on the bed curled up. His hands were over his stomach. The worst sight of it all to Mark was Jack's expression. He was crying- tears pouring down his face. He looked so pained like he'd been going through death.
"I'm- I'm hurting..." Jack took a breath. It hurt him to breathe. "I don't.. know.."
Mark had stood in shock. He didn't like these situations, but he went to Jack's phone and called for an ambulance.
"Mark.." Jack's hand reached out. Mark took it, but Jack was pulling him towards him. Mark laid next to Jack, who's expression looked extremely painful. "I love.. you.."
Mark moves the phone, so the person on the other side doesn't hear him, "Love you t0o." And kisses his forehead.

Mark sat in the waiting room. Almost asleep, but he wouldn't let himself. He's go get himself another soda when he got tired, and started pacing the hallway. He'd ask every once in a while if Jack was out of surgery, but there was never an update. Jack's appendix had ruptured.
Hours later, Mark got word on his husband, that surgery went fine, and he could see him. But heavily drugged. He took no hesitation to walk in the room.
"Hey.. How are you holding up?" Mark asked his husband. Jack's eyes opened and he took Mark's hand.
"I'm okay." Was Jack's reply. He probably said it so Mark wouldn't worry, but Jack wasn't too sure of the situation he was in.
"You're better," Mark says. "and you will continue to get better. I promise you that." He kisses Jack's hand. "I love you Sean."
"Yeah, yeah. I love you too you big baby." Jack's voice slurred. Mark chuckled at his words. "Speaking of that.. can we still have one..?"
Mark didn't consider that. Jack had just fallen into the hospital, and a child would be coming soon. Could they make that work out?
"I'm.. not sure." Mark said. "We'll have to talk about that once you can remember what you've said."
They never did adopt Levi.
