Daddy's little bug (discontinued, see description)

25

When they arrived at the hospital, Casey was curled up on the bed, out of the way. The paramedic pulled the streatcher out, with the help of another paramedic.

They are pushed into the Emergency Room, as the man explains stats and numbers to a woman, who is following them.

Another woman tried to pull Casey off the bed, and in response, got kicked in the side, and a sobbing little.

"Leave him, his cousin will be here as soon as she can, but he's not going anywhere until then" the paramedic said, before turning his attention to the little, "Casey, say sorry to her for kicking her"

Casey shook his head, curling further into himself at Justin's feet.

"Do I need to tell your daddy?" He asked, which got a worried whimper from the boy, as he mumbled a quick 'sorry'.

"Thank you" the man raised, patting his head.

The nurses just shrugged, working around the little, curled in a ball at the end of the bed. When Justin was all hooked up to an IV, a heart monitor, and all the other gadgets, the nurses left, all but one.

She was a pretty blonde, with pale skin and blue eyes. She smiled, kneeling by the bed to get eye level with him.

"Hey, bud" She whispered, "is this your daddy?" She asked calmly.

Casey nodded his head, curling further into himself.

"How old are you?" She asked, and Casey just held up a single hand, fingers spread wide to show her. "Wow, you're a big boy" she grinned at him, and he gave a small smile. "We're going to take good care of your Daddy, but I need your help"

She helped Casey sit up, as he packed his head to the side, staring up at her.

"I need you to be really really good, that way your daddy can focus on getting better, then when he goes home, he can give you all his attention again, yeah?"

Casey nodded.

"Can you tell me your name, love?" She asked.

"Casey" he mumbled.

"That's a really pretty name" she smiled, causing the little to blush, "what's your daddy's name?"

"Jay Jay" he whispered.

"Yeah? Can I call him that or just you?" She asked

"Just me" Casey stated, slightly possessive.

"What can I call him?" She asked again, smiling as the little thought hard.

"Justin" the little whispered.

"I like that name, too" she smiled, "the doctor is gonna come in and see what's wrong with Justin, so you have to be really good, and stay out of the way"

Casey nodded.

"Good, now if you're really good, I'll go get you a hot chocolate, how's that sound?"

Casey grinned up at her as he nodded.

When she finally left the 'room', with one last smile to him, and the only sound was the beeping of the heart monitor Justin had just been hooked up to, Casey crawled up his body a little. laying his head on his daddy's stomach, and curling around his legs.

Kelsey came in not long after, and cooed at the boy, before setting on the chair in the corner.

They sat like that for a while, before a doctor came in, studying the clipboard in his hands.

"Hello, My name is Dr. Ryan" he said, before finally looking up. "after running a few test-"

"Already? Jesus" Kelsey interrupted.

"Yes, and after the blood test, we can safely confirm that Mr. Carnes appendix is at risk of bursying, and that is why he collapsed"  the doctor stated.

"Bursting? That could kill him" Kelsey stated, with wide eyes, before wanting to take it back when Casey whimpered and curled around Justin  more.

"Not if we do an immediate surgery to remove it" the Doctor said.

"So you want to take him into surgery?" Kelsey asked, "how long will it take?"

"Yes, and it should only take a couple hours if everything runs smoothly"

Kelsey nodded, "ok"

"Ok" the doctor replied before existing the room, returning moments later with a bunch of nurses, all unhooking things, and prepping Justin for surgery. They all worked around Casey, as he whimpered, from his place.

"Alright he's ready" one of the nurses called. And the bed was being moved, they were taken down the hall, to a set of double doors.

"Ok, he needs to get off" one of the nurses said, stopping the bed, and looking at Casey. He whimpered again.

"Come on Case, let's go get some breakfast" Kelsey tried, but to no avail, Casey was stuck to Justin's side, like he was super glued there.

"Hey Casey" a familiar voice called to him softly, "why don't we go get you that hot chocolate now, yeah?"

Casey looked up at the nurse from before, her pretty eyes shinned down at him. He nodded slow.

"You have to come with me though, so I don't get lost" she said, and he slowly sat up, taking her hand, and sliding from the bed. They started to walk away from the nurses, but he pulled back quickly, rushing to the side of the bed and kissing his Daddy's head softly.

"I love you, daddy" he whispered, before running back to the nurses extended hand. Kelsey smiled and followed behind.

"Trish, i'm going to the cafe, i'll be 5 maybe 10 minutes" The woman called.

"Got it, Anna, but hurry please" the other woman called back.

They were soon at the Cafe, and Casey had his hot coco minutes after walking in. The nurse had to go back to work, but not before leaving that two her Contact info.

Kelsey and Casey stayed in the Cafeteria for hours, waiting for someone to come and tell them that everything is OK, or at least that he's not dead.

They waited until eventually Casey fell asleep, and Kelsey wishes she could join him.

Hi, so for some reason this chapter took me forever to write and it was such a struggle to get it to a thousand words, and I still didn't make it. It was close, but not close enough.

So this one is a little short, but he's not dead, yet. We still don't know why he has a headache.

Anyway, I will leave you guys at that, also I like that nurse.

Love you  guys. ❤
