Michael

He Needs Love ❤️

Michael woke up in a hospital bed with an IV sticking in his right arm. His eyes were still blurry. He didn't have his glasses on.

"Looking for these?"

Mika. Michael turned to his left to see Fortune and Mika sitting next to him with worried looks on their faces. Mika was wearing Michael's glasses. Trying to make him smile, but it didn't work.

Mika noticed and gave Michael his glasses. "Fitz called," Mika started to fill Michael in on what had happened.

"He found your phone in your pocket when you arrived and found my number and called me..."

Michael started to get out of the bed. "Ezra!" He yelled as he collapsed to the ground.

"Michael!" Mika ran over to him to help him back in the bed. "You need your rest."

"But Ezra?" He started to cry again.

Mika sat right next to him to comfort him. Michael buried his head into Mika's chest. Sobbing. Mika held onto Michael and continuously ran his fingers through Michael's messy black hair.

"He's fine," Mika reassured Michael as he kissed the side of his head. "Fortune and I have been checking on him. We got kicked out by a psychologist ten minutes ago. She said she'd come get us when she was done. We can all go see him together, okay?" He looked down to Michael he had stopped crying, but was still breathing heavy.

"Knock, knock, knock. May I come in?" Fitz questioned standing in the doorway of the ER room. Mika nodded as Fitz came in to checkup on Michael.

He rubbed Micheal's back, "he's alright Michael. He lost quite a bit of blood, but he's alive. And he needs a lot of love, and support." Fitz continued as he sat in the metal swivel chair. "It's going to be a long bumpy road to recovery for him. He..he's going to need to be monitored and go to therapy. He's lucky. We're lucky."

"Thank you," Michael reached for Fitz's hand.

"That's what I'm here for. I love you Michael and every single one of those kids. I fear every time that they bring someone in that it's you or one of the kids." He shed a tear, but quickly wiped it away. "It was hard. And I never want to have to experience it again. Okay?"

Michael sat up and hugged Fitz. "I love you Steven. Thank you!" They let go and Fitz walked out the door as he heard his name being called for a call.

"You're lucky to have him Michael," Mika said as he wrapped his arms around Michael's waist. Michael fell on top of him and just laid with his head in his chest for the next half hour.
