MRI, New Cast, Shoulder Surgery Decision

Ted and I decided to go back home so that he could get the rest he needed to heal his ankle. But I only get to stay for a few days at least. I was currently getting him settled on the couch so he could rest his ankle. "How is that?" I ask, after adjusting some pillows under his foot. 

"Perfect, thank you."

"Ok, Now how about I go make something to eat?" 

"Sounds good." He nods. 

I nod and lean down and kiss him quick before going in the kitchen. I search for something to make and then make it. Once I am done I walk out and hand Ted his plate and go get drinks before getting mine. Once that is all set I walk out and sit on the chair opposite the couch. 

"The few days I'm here, I'm taking care of you." I tell him.

"I appreciate that. Thank you." 

"I do wanna get a different cast today though." He adds.

"Right. Well we can see if we can get that done."

"After the MRI of course."

"Yes. Get everything taken care of while we can."

"I hope it's not worse than a break."

"It does not feel like it but, we will see in a few hours."

"I just can't believe you didn't show any reaction to the injury during the match. You looked fine. Then again adrenaline masks pain sometimes."

"I did not feel it at the time either. It was like any other time."

"Right."

"Then we will find out how long I am out for." Ted sighs.

"It shouldn't be too bad."

"Right. At least a few months."

"Depends on how bad it is, and if you need surgery or not."

"We can only hope it is not that bad."

"Right."

"We will find out soon."

"Yeah." I nod.

Soon we finish eating and I take our things in the kitchen and clean them. After putting them away I walk back out and sit back in the chair, Ted looking at me.

"What?" I ask. 

"I want you to come over here." Ted fake pouts.

"Too far away from you?"

"Yes."

I giggle before getting up from the chair and going over to him. Once I get close enough Ted pulls me down so I am laying half on his chest and half on the couch.

"Ah, much better." Ted sighs, holding me close.

"Yes, much better."

"Going to miss this."

"I know, I will too."

"Which is why we are going to do it as much as we can now."

"Of course."

"Not letting go anytime soon either."

"I figured as much."

I lay there and trace patterns on Ted's chest as he rubs my back. I sigh in content just enjoying the moment. 

"So just a relaxing day today, that's the plan."

"Yes. Got nothing other than the doctor today."
