Blood and Tears

Two Halves of a Whole.

I lay back down in the bed, watching as Gilbert pull up a chair and sit next to me. We sat like that for a while, until loud footsteps sounded outside the door. I turned my head and looked at the said door and the footsteps grew louder. I heard Gilbert mumble something and he stood up. I was about to ask him what was wrong when rapid knocks sounded on the door. "Yo Gilbert! Can we come in?" I stared at the door as it flung open, Gilbert still next to me. Gilbert mumbled something under his breath as Alfred stormed in and I guessed it wasn't very nice. 

He stared at me in suprise. "He-" Alfred bolted over to my bedside and began to poke my cheek. "But- They said- What? How?" Gilbert grabbed his hand and glared at him. "Don't touch him." I sat up a little as Arthur, Francis and Ivan entered the room. They all stared at me and I shifted uncomfortably under their gaze. "Stop staring at him!" Gilbert snapped. I reached out and grabbed his hand, pulling him down. "What are they doing here? Why do they keep staring at me?" I whispered. "Jour family vas here before jou voke up und I guess Ivan just got here."

I nodded and Francis replaced Alfred's spot by my bedside. "'ow are you feeling?" I looked around uncomfortably. "Uh. I... um..." I didn't know really. What do I say? "Spit it out! We don't have all bloody day!" I turned my eyes on Arthur. One out. Alfred smacked Arthur behind the head. "Dude. Not cool. Say sorry." Arthur turned on him. "I will not! I have things to do!" Alfred got angry. "Like what?" Two. Francis turned to them. "Shhh! We are in a 'ospital! Do not start this 'ere!" Three. I lay back down, listening to them argue. Ivan moved around them and came over.

He poked me lightly in the shoulder and I looked at him out of the corner of my eye, Gilbert staring at him intensely. "I did not mean to put you in coma. I am sorry about that. I am also sorry for not seeing you. You will forgive me?" I looked away. "I don't think I can Ivan." He looked puzzled. "Why not?" I heard the bickering at the end of my bed stop. "I just don't. I want to forgive you... I really do, but... I don't think I can. I don't think I can forgive any of you. Gilbert is really the only person who has ever cared."

Ivan nodded. "I see. And I understand. It will be long time before you forgive us, da?" I nodded. Ivan made a noise of approval. "You made wise choice. I too would not forgive so easy. Get better soon, da?" I nodded and Ivan left. I sighed and closed my eyes, tired and sleepy. I must have fallen asleep right after because next I awoke with a doctor lightly slapping my face. "What?" I asked. "You need to stay awake please." He said. "How come?" I yawned. "If you fall asleep, there is a chance you could go back into a coma." He began to look at a bunch of mashines.

"Oh." He laughed. "You're pretty nonchalont about it. If you don't mind me asking, what was it like?" I looked at him confused. "What do you mean?" He unhooked me from the I.V's. "Being in a coma. Being dead. Well, you were dead for only a few seconds... Maybe half a minute. But still, what was it like?" He pushed me to sit up so I did. "Well, it was strange. I could hear everything but I thought it was a dream. And when I woke up, I was actually asleep dreaming. If that makes any sense." He nodded and scribbled something down on a slip of paper.

"It was so confusing really. It was like living two different lives. One where nothing happened, the dreams, and reality. I'm not even sure if any of this is real." The doctor laughed again. "Don't worry. It's real. Now, what about your arms? I noticed when you came in that they were covered in scars? Why is that?" I bit my lip. "I uh... I ahem... c-cut." I whispered the last part but he caught it. "Does anyone else know?" I looked out the window. It's dark out there. Just like in your head. I nodded. "Yes. Gilbert knows. The albino that came here with me. And, I think my family seen my scars while I was in the coma... But they didn't know before."

He nodded again in an understanding manor. "Why do you cut?" He asked. I looked at him, then back down. Then pointed to my head. "Th' voices... Get um, mean, and they won't leave until I, uh you know..." I made a cutting motion on my wrists. "Do you have a theripist?" I shook my head. "No..." He moved so I could see him. "Would you like one? I have a friend who is a great theripist. She is very nice and loves to help people just like you." I looked up a little. "People like me? Like people with voices?" He nodded. "Yup. She can help make them go away." Go away? "Like forever?" He nodded again.

I felt my heart beat faster. Some one else who can help? Make them leave me alone? It's a load of shit. We can't leave. "Would you like me to call her and make an appointment?" I shook my head. "C-can I talk to Gilbert first?" He looked out the door, then back to me. "I'm sensing you trust this Gilbert alot." I blushed and nodded. "I know that you love him." My eyes widened and my blush deepened. "You don't think it's gross, do you?" He shook his head. "God no! Love is love. It doesn't matter the gender, race, nationality, colour. Nothing. By my guess you love him and I've seen the way he beggs the nurses' to let him stay here with you. It's cute."

My face flushed more. "H-he did?" The doctor nodded. "For the last five months. He hates leaving you here. Most of the other male doctors don't get it. Some couldn't care less. There are a handful of us though that think it's cute that they found love. Wait here. I'll go call in your Gilbert." He left and I blushed the hardest I think I've ever had. He called Gilbert mine. Mine. I felt like floating. He's right. Gilbert is mine. And I'm his. Two halves of a whole.
