Accidents make perfection

Chapter 30

Mare POV

"No Mare stay away" Farley says and motions for two soldiers to keep me back "what are you doing? Let go of me." I say and when Carmadon, Elane, and Gisa see who it is they all gasp "let go of me" I say and shake them off I run before they grab me again and see him, Cal. He has cuts, bruises, and ripped up clothes on. "Oh my god..." I say and the medics come and grab him putting him on a stretcher. I run up to him but Gisa and Elane grab me "Mare no we can meet him at the hospital" Gisa says "no I want to go with him, I need to go with him" I say crying so I'm barely understandable "Mare come on we can follow behind them"Farley says and I try to get out of their grip but I'm sobbing and so weak "mare calm down he'll be fine" Carmadon says I stand there for a while they get cal into the ambulance and close the doors "follow them" I say and get in the car. We follow them to the hospital, when we get there I get out of the car and run to his side "m'am I need you to step away" one of the medics say "but he's my husb... boyfriend" I say, I almost stumble on the words mistakingly calling him my husband. "Alright but you can only come so far" she says and I follow them inside. They force me to leave him to bring him into surgery, i stand there at the door they took him through and just stand there. Gisa comes up behind me and grabs my shoulder guiding me to the waiting room "Mare come on" She says and takes me to a seat, I sit there for 3 hours with Gisa and Farley always getting up and asking if he's doing well. Elane and Carmadon left after and hour so that I could have some privacy. Finally the doctor doing surgery on him comes out and I stand up "Captain Barrow I presume, I'm doctor Lavoie" he says holding out his hand "yes I am how is he, is he ok?" I ask and he smiles "he'll be fine, he had 2 bullet wounds in his arms and some shrapnel in his leg, no doubt from the plane crash. I may be a healer but it took us a while to get the stuff out of him. We also want to wait a while before we heal his miner cuts so that we don't wear out his body" He says and I let out a sigh of relief "can I see him?" I ask and he nods "yes but he's very sedated so he won't wake up for a few more hours, I would suggest getting some food for you and that baby before you go and see him" he says and I completely forgot I hadn't eaten lunch yet "thank you so much" I say and he smiles "no problem" he says and walks off "you go see him we'll go get you some food that's not from a hospital" Farley says "thank you" I say and they leave. When I get into his room he's sitting there unconscious my eyes start to well up and I start to cry. I put my hand on our baby and it kicks my hand, I let out a small laugh "I know he's ok, I just don't like seeing him like this" I say talking to our baby. I sit in a chair next to him holding his hand. I study his face, it's got small cuts all over it,  a larger cut going from his eyebrow to his cheek, and finally bruises all over. After about 30 minutes Farley and Gisa come back with food "how is he?" Gisa asks "well look at him." I say and she nods "he'll be fine Mare ok?" Farley says and I smile "I know" I say. We eat the food and talk about what we think happened. After about 2 hours his grip on my hand tightens and his eyes slowly open "Mare?" He asks and I stand up putting myself in front of him "I'm here, I'm here" I say and his eyes are fully open now "you called me your husband" he says and I laugh "yes I did" I say and he smiles "we'll leave you two" Gisa says and they bother leave "how are you feeling?" I ask "like I was bragged through a pile of knives" he says "what happened?" I ask and he tried to sit up but hisses in pain "take it easy" I say and he laughs " I was in an operation in the Lakeland's helping the Scarlett Guard get supplies and intelligence, we where near a base they had that was attacked . I almost made it out without harm but I saw a girl that was being taken so I went to save her. Got shot and cut up by some soldiers but made it to a plane and came here" he says "you idiot, i told you not to do that" I say and start to cry he smiles "I know, I regretted it as soon as I did it, but I knew I would regret it if I didn't" he says and pets my head "how's the baby?" He asks and I wipe away my tears "good, but I'm getting tired of all the pain" i say and he smiles sadly "i wish I could take that pain away" he says and i laugh "you have enough pain to worry about" I say and he laughs.
