“Mr Thompson?” Raz jerked awake and stood, clutching the book to his chest.
“You can see him now.” He followed the doctor and nodded in thanks when he left him alone with Jay
Kinda want a demon and human ship so...help?
He smiled weakly at him. "There's my prince. I've been waiting to see you."
“Hi my king,” Raz smiled softly, eyeing the machines he was hooked up to. Raz sat at the edge of Jay’s bed “how are you feeling?” He asked softly, taking Jay’s hand
"Like shit. But I've been feeling like that all morning so it's whatever." He half shrugged.
Raz sighed softly and traced circles on the back of Jay’s hand. He carefully curled up next to Jay and nuzzled his neck “should I keep reading or do you want to sleep for now?”
"No, please keep reading. I love hearing your voice." He smiled a little, pressing a kiss to his forehead.
“Okay,” he blushed slightly and opened the book to where he had ended.
“he had awoke a few days later, eyes fluttering open and carefully looking around.
‘Morning sleepy head.’ She smiles kindly and stood.
‘angel…’ he whispered”
Now he could actually see the pages and read along with him, nuzzling into him.
"She blushed, visible on her pearly white coloring. 'uh uhm no, I'm not an angel.' she looked away from his beautifully deep purple eyes and focused back on her homespun blankets. 'what's your name?' she asked after gaining her composure.
'Caspien,' he responded softly, voice like the silk in her hand, something proper yet tenderly soft at the same time."
"That's totally you. My beautiful butterfly." He chuckled softly, cuddling him closer.
Raz laughed and shook his head with a smile "that's you 100% you," He pressed a kiss to Jay's nose and continued reading.
"'and you are? if not an angel,' Caspien asked, slowly sitting up.
She went to help him, adjusting the pillows and making sure his wing wasn't pulled. 'my name is Lumi.' she responded, light blush on her cheeks 'It's nice to meet you, I wish it were under better circumstances.'"
"Nope, not possible. I'm the weirdo outlier, you're the beautiful stranger in a crowd of others just like you."
“Mm mm, you’re my butterfly. My mysterious yet maddeningly attractive butterfly.”
“’no, I think these are perfect circumstances.’ Caspien smiled softly and looked around the cozy home before focusing on Lumi. ‘It’s nice to meet you Lumi, thank you again for everything.’”
He blushed but shook his head. "Liar. I'm not that attractive and that's absolutely you."
“No you’re right, you’re more attractive than that. But until people come up with a word for that, maddening will have to do.” Raz laughed and nuzzled Jay’s hair
“’Uh Uhm, Of course. Are you hungry?’ Lumi asked, wanting to get vermin’s off of the gorgeous butterfly beforehand her.
Caspien nodded sheepishly ‘have any Milkweed flowers?’”
"Nooo, that's you. I'm below average and you're everything. I'm surprised no one scooped you up before I did."
Raz frowned slightly “Someone did try, it didn’t work out.”
“lumi nodded and scuttled to the kitchen. She brought a bowl of Milkweed salads with a few more leaves and flowers. ‘Will this do or do you want something else?’
Caspien shook his head ‘this is perfect, thank you.’”
"Well I'm glad we did cause I absolutely adore you."
“I love you too, my king.” His frown was replaced by a small smile and he kissed Jay’s lips
“lumi had no idea what to do except sit and continue her weaving. After a few moments of awkward silence she spoke.’so,if you don’t mind me asking, what happened?’
Caspian grinned and looked up from his food ‘bold of you to assume something bad happened.’
‘I never said something bad had to happen, just something.’ She countered gently
The butterfly regarded her with thoughtfulness ‘had a little run in with a praying mantis, they didn’t take to my intrusion and tore up my wing. I managed to get away but lost so much energy fighting them off.’”
He yawned softly but tried to hide it so he'd keep reading. He didn't want him to leave his arms again, especially not so soon.
Raz continued reading, not really noticing Jay’s yawn.
“*lumi nodded and glanced down at her silk blanket. ‘It shouldn’t have happened,’ she said, nodding towards the wing ‘whatever you did, I’m sure it didn’t warrent that kind of violence.’
‘How do you know?’ He asked, setting the bowl down
He nuzzled his face into his neck sleepily, wanting to keep him there but also thinking that a nap would be lovely.
Raz looked over and smiled softly “look who’s tired. Sleep my king.” He murmured, closing the book and turning on his side so that he was pressed up against Jay
"Nooo, if I fall asleep then they'll make you leave and I don't want you to leave me again." He only held him tighter, cuddling him to his chest.
“I’ll never leave you my king.” He murmured “don’t worry, if the doctors come I’ll wake you up.” He pressed a kiss to his skin and nudged into his chest
"Okay. I love you, my prince." He kissed his forehead softly before slowly falling asleep.
“I love you more,” he whispered, wrapping his arms around his waist and tugged Jay closer
He just held him tight like how a child cuddled a teddy bear at night. He just didn't want him to leave again.
Raz started to hum softly, trailing his hand along Jay's jawline and neck. He kept humming until he fell asleep in Jay's arms.
And our bois slept peacefully, though I'm not sure comfortably since they're in a hospital.
