K/S Hospital Scene bc Into Darkness was so K/S TASTIC

[done_in_3]

It was so sudden. He woke up with a flash, bright lights, soft sounds, a bed, he was alive?? But he'd died in the chamber...in engineering. Spock and he had exchanged that vulcan hand-thing whatever the hell it was. He'd died, he was dead. Was this heaven? Holy....

No. Bones was here nagging at him.

"Oh don't be so melodramatic, you were barely dead. You've been out cold for two weeks."

He was so...taken aback. What had happened? He just remembered being in the locked chamber watching Spock shed tears, glimmering tears of anguish as he slowly died of radiation poisoning... his heart lurched at the memory. He didn't know the vulcan was even capable...

And then Spock was in the room, approaching him. Suddenly... everything else was forgotten. Hell even Bones was gone in his mind, though he could hear the doctor put in a "You know Uhura and I had something to do with it too."

"....Thanks, Spock... for saving my life..."

_{[He was calm. He's just confused and in want of some answers. It also helps he has half a teaspoon of patience. He responds to Spock's efforts regardless and come to a placid state, now fully awake and ready to converse. Also he's famished. On second thought perhaps it's not really that Spock had a need to silence him with 'calmness' perhaps its just him wishing for Jim to be more in his comfort zone of vulcan emotional castration. A perfectly normal desire honestly. He'd prefer if Spock loosened up a bit more sometimes or if the Starfleet HQ were more carefree and had fewer sticks up their collective ass.]}

He did huh?... _{[His eyes darted to the window. The landscape, while small from his view, was of a car park, plantations in the background, and a sign planted proclaiming this unholy place as the Riverside Starfleet Medical Center.]}

Bones came all the way out here? How bad was it?

[spohkh]

[Spock, sensing Jim's gather patience, eases back...

He's not getting anything right lately.
Spock gathers his thoughts...hesitating...]

Jim... your heart stopped.

[done_in_3]

<sub>[Spock is getting plenty of things right. Stop.

Jim pauses, looking at Spock seriously.]</sub>

...

after... _{[Yes... he remembered the very last moment in the barn. His chest bloomed with agony and then everything went black when his head hurt rather boldly.]}

.....

... So you.... saved me.

[spohkh]

Jim... I...

[Spock breathed for a moment.]

Doctor McCoy saved you... I did what I could to get you here.

[Not to forget that he had lost his emotional control again]

Sorry I missed your aim ping [I'm on now D8]

[done_in_3]

No... Spock if my heart stopped right there I would have died in that barn if you didn't do something.

I know you didn't run me here...

_{[He smirked softly]}

I guess mom's medkit finally came in handy, I'm sure she's proud of herself.

<3

[spohkh]

Your mother...

[Spock stops... ] We should inform her that you are awake, she will want to see you. And you are hungry, allow me to procure you some food.

[The Vulcan stands and moves over to the replicator, pulling out his padd as he went.]

Happy 1100!

[done_in_3]

It's really late, Spock. Can't she wait until tomorrow?

<sub>[He watched Spock's delicious ass as he headed to the replicator. He'd ask for dessert but he doubted it would be offered in a hospital setting. Damn.]

...Guess I gave you both a scare...</sub>

WOOT!

[spohkh]

[Spock's fingers pause on the keypad.... Jim was right. He sent Winona a small written message letting her know that Jim had regained consciousness and would love to see her in the morning.

Taking his eyes from the PADD he focuses on the replicator and gets Jim chicken noodle soup. He bring it over on a lap tray.]

Yes... it was an unpleasant experience. However, you are here, and it is illogical to dwell on the past.
It is... good to see you awake.

[Indeed, Spock couldn't stop staring at Jim's vibrant blue eyes. He was alive...

..alive.

His gift was almost taken from him once more... He doesn't know what he would do if his gift was lost forever.]

we're like RABBITS

[done_in_3]

_{[He accepts the soup gratefully and has it finished in minutes.]}

Unpleasant?... tell me the truth.

_{[He reached for his hand]} Talk to me.

All of it... all the time. XDD

[spohkh]

[Spock doesn't want to worry Jim.... but the fact is, it's all there in his head. The worry, the absolute trauma of seeing Jim die in front of him once again. The quiet stillness that filled his heart and mind as the bond that represented everything that he had with Jim suddenly disappeared.
There was no Earth shattering event... no planetary destruction... Rather, it was like a light-switch. All of a sudden, the light was out. Gone. Still.

Spock knew that Jim was a free spirit... a being who explored space and everything around him with a passion that rivaled his own. And yet... knowing that, he wanted nothing more than to hold Jim close...

...to keep him forever safe in his arms. Spock's mind shuddered at the very thought. He couldn't do that... he wouldn't. Jim would hate him for it.
No... Spock knew the dangers that they faced on a regular basis while traveling space. It would be illogical to refuse their existence.

Didn't mean he had to like it.


Spock took Jim's hand... stroking the fingers as he kissed him lightly with his long digits. To speak would mean to admit his feelings...
...and already he felt as though he had done something wrong.
It was like Winona said... he was immature. And right at this very moment, he was painfully aware of it.]

You died Jim... again. It was painful.
The bond suffered.

It is simple truth Jim to admit that I did not know what to do, and that still I wonder what would I do if we could not bring you back. However, I cannot allow myself to think that... because you are here... alive and well. And for that I am eternally thankful.

[done_in_3]

_{[Jim wasn't convinced with that small explanation. Not when he can feel a whole spectrum of emotions, a whole masterpiece painting he could give better than Spock right now. Anguish, desperation, grief, fear.... a desperate fear of losing what he held most dear and knowing the reality of that threat. He'd seen it before and yearned never see it again, yet he knew the posts they held held many dangers, some that could and very well might take his life for good. He gave his love an authoritative glance while kissing him back more deliberately with his fingers.]}

... Spock... You don't have to be restrained around me.

_{[Or is this what the bond was for? So Spock didn't have to explain it with inferior words? Aggressively inadequate to describe the emotions he could feel acutely through this intangible bond?]}

[spohkh]

[Spock shudders then.... Jim's words rolling throw him like a thunderous wave.
Biting back a sob of relief, the Vulcan leans forward... burying his head in the nape of Jim's neck, just inhaling Jim's scent. It's there, under the odd and sickly hospital smells, the scent of Jim... alive.

Spock's hand leaves Jim's... and he places it gently over Jim's heart, making sure not to disturb any of Leonard's work.
And he just stays like that for a moment...giving into his weakness.]

[done_in_3]

_{[Jim closed his eyes, opening his arms to Spock]}

C'mere.

_{[With one hand he moved the bed tray to the adjacent table and then tugged the vulcan closer, onto the bed if he'd allow it. He held Spock close, relieved his mother wasn't here for this. He knew Spock was on edge while she was around. To some degree he was performing for her and he needed time alone with him to handle what happened today.]}

I'm sorry...

_{[He feels so repentant for this accident. He sees Spock's pain and it is mirrored in himself, he hates seeing Spock torn up about anything. He wants to fix it, he wants to hold him and make it all better, what would fix it? Just say the word, he'll do anything.]}

[spohkh]

[Spock's fingers clutch Jim's hospital gown....
As Jim speaks through the bond, Spock reaches for it like a starving man...]

Do not apologise... It was MY fault.

[Spock's anguish over the entire situation became palpable as he replayed everything in his mind. His stupidity for agreeing to fight Jim... and failing to keep him safe. Spock couldn't stand it.]

[done_in_3]

_{[He adamantly rejected every notion. None of this was his fault, he was trying to keep him out of trouble. He couldn't have predicted Lightning would react so violently. It's not his fault that Jim is so high maintenance.... HE'S sorry he has this shit to deal with. For the first time....he regrets all the bad habits he's adopted to cope. They never hurt anyone before, he never let anyone in to BE hurt. But Spock's in here now...they're hurting him, making him doubt himself. Jim feels a bit ashamed of himself. Fucking stupid for being in this hospital at all.]}

[spohkh]

[Spock leans his head up so he can look at Jim... It only takes a moment and then he's kissing him... gently though, considering where they are and why they are here in the first place.

With great care, Spock caresses Jim's face...pouring his love through the kiss.]

do not blame yourself Ashaya.... We will help each other..... not stupid.... beautiful Jim...

[Spock's mind is filled with his love and adoration for Jim... and absolute happiness that he is alive.]

[done_in_3]

_{[He held Spock close, not wanting the kiss to end. He didn't want to be in this position anymore. He hated recovering instead of charging forward and it was hell on Spock. He kissed gently and encouraged the vulcan to lay with him when it was over.]}

We will. Everything will be fine.

_{[He meant that too. Everything was going to be exactly how he wants, his life with Spock, his body. Even his grief. That crap's days were numbered. He had love for the first time in his life. He blossomed open for Spock, showing his returned affections, the intensity of all his pining, yearning, his year of silent devotion to a man he'd never have the honor of calling his own.]}

[spohkh]

[Spock tries to be gentle with Jim... he really does. Logically he should leave Jim alone to heal, but he can't seem to bring himself to be away from Jim any longer...
So, without breaking the kiss, Spock lays down beside Jim... pulling his mate into an embrace.

All the while he whispers Vulcan endearments through the bond.]

[done_in_3]

_{[Jim gets comfortable in that hold, wrapping an arm around Spock again. He framed his face as he kissed him softly, as tender as he could. He pet his hair back.]}

It's gonna be fine, Spock. Everything's going to be fine.

[spohkh]

[Spock nodded... he believe him, of course he did...
Leaning his forehead on Jim's, the Vulcan relaxed.

A large part of him felt ashamed at the emotional outburst... but he was starting to believe that around Jim, it didn't matter so much.]

Yes...
Together now...

[Spock was exhausted...and he didn't really realize it until now. Still holding onto Jim, the Vulcan relaxed into the bed... his eyes starting to drift shut as his mind wrapped itself comfortably around Jim's.]

[done_in_3]

_{[He pet Spock's hair back and watched as Spock fell asleep. This was a new experience, Spock sleeping first. Jim laid awake for a long time watching him and thinking about both himself and how he fit with Spock. Spock's emotions and how he responded to Jim's lifestyle. His old coping mechanisms just didn't fit anymore and while they were something he was loathe to give up he knew he ultimately had to. They might not always end up with someone in the hospital but it was hurting Spock to witness them. Spock was going to have to see the source of Jim's darkness sooner or later. He began to wonder just how and when that would happen... he began to wonder a lot of things, holding Spock while he slept.]}

[spohkh]

[Spock's mind drifted as he slept on... content to float in Jim's consciousness.

In his sleep he was also able to analyse everything that had happened...and how poorly he had handled it.
Not only had he had several emotional outbursts... but he allowed himself to engage in two separate melds with Winona Kirk.

Highly unacceptable.

Spock would have continued sleeping...but there were voices steadily growing in volume. A gruff voice that was most familiar...]

[done_in_3]

"...it's not safe to have him draped over you Jim--"



"Leave him, he's fine. I like him there."

"This hospital doesn't operate on your whims, Jim. You need your chest clear so you can heal."

"It is clear, he's on my side Bones. If you wake him up I'm gonna be mad."



"Like I give a shit about your little tantrums, you want to know how fast I can drug you into submission?"



"Is that a challenge, doctor? I think I want to take you up on that. Hey I think I saw a cute nurse out there, I'm gonna go ask of she can be the judge for us."

"Jim-- dammit stay in that bed!"

"Nah, I think I really need to go ask her myself. You don't have my charms."

"Would you stop?"

"Are you gonna let him sleep?"



"...fine. You win, you happy?"

"Quite."

[spohkh]

Doctor, you would find that if you had asked me kindly... I would have been compelled to move.

[Spock sits up, straightening his rumpled shirt.... but forgetting about the bed head.]

You have my apologies Doctor, for not following the hospital protocol.... I will remove myself.
[Spock switches over to the chair... looking calm as he can with hair sticking all over the place.]

[done_in_3]

_{[Both men look at him rather suddenly, Jim stifled a laugh but grins brightly at Spock. Bones just looks annoyed with Jim.]}

I was going to, Spock. Jim stopped me. Sorry to wake you.

_{[Professionally, he said nothing about the hair but he assumed they had a nice night side by side. It was surreal to him to see the hobgoblin in that position. He'd never seen him be intimate with Jim in any way and it was still kind of a fantasy until the moment he came in the room this morning.]}

I came here to give you your meds anyway, Jim.
