This is gonna hurt von ScarsLikeVelvet ================================================================================ Kapitel 4: ----------- When Kyo woke up after his surgery , he was in pain. Even before he opened his eyes, tears of misery were leaking down his soft cheeks and when he tried to swallow the pain turned to agony und the instinctively uttered whimper made his throat burn and silent tears were now streaming down his face. His sight was blurred, but he saw the red blob next to his bed hold something out to him, so he opened his mouth and a shudder raced through his body, when some ice chips were dropped onto his tongue. The ice soothed the burn a little bit, but not much. Since he couldn't talk, he tried to put his hand against his throat, but Dais hand curled around his wrist. He sat beside Kyos bed, ever since he had been brought back after surgery. It had taken longer and been a little bit more complicated than anticipated but it had gone well. Dai had been nervous as hell, since Kyo had been so pale and his breathing slightly erratic after being under narcotics for quite a bit longer than he had ever been before. While waiting for the young vocalist to wake up, he had called Kaoru and told him about the doctors findings during the operation and how he felt, if only to pass the time a bit. Soft whimpers had alerted him to Kyo waking up and he had gone to fetch a glass of ice chips, since he knew they were allowed to sooth Kyos throat. The painful whimpers and the tears streaming down Kyos cheeks made his heart ache. He wanted to take Kyo into a warm embrace and shelter him, but he knew the vocalist had to wake up properly for this, so he gave him a few ice chips and caught his hand, when he wanted to put it against his throat. "Hey, sweety…don't do that…it will only hurt more.", he whispered softly and stroked the captured wrist with his calloused thumb. He watched honey brown eyes flutter open once more and could see the questions inside, so he answered. "…all things considering the surgery went well, although it took a bit longer than anticipated. You will be up and about soon enough and we finally get to go home for quite a while." He put the ice chips down and put the now freed hand against Kyos soft cheek. "I'm happy this is finally over and I have you back" The vocalist leaned into the soft, cool touch and smiled softly, although he was still hurting, he could bear the pain, now that his throat wasn't so dry anymore. Sluggishly he lifted his hand and put it over Daisukes. He wanted to show him he was happy too, but all to soon all the medications still in his bloodstream caught him again and pulled him back under. He went back to sleep and his hand dropped back onto the bed. A soft sigh escaped his lips, when Kyo went back to sleep. He had anticipated more of a struggle and seeing Kyo in pain wasn't on top of his to do list, but it couldn't be helped. He picked his silent vigil back up and hoped for the best.
