Medicine Can't Heal Everything (Private with SecretSenpai)

[SecretSenpai]

As Aaron listened to the blonde speak, he began to wonder if he should get angry and hit him, or if he was even capable of expressing any of the maelstrom inside of him. Regardless, he wanted to hit him. It was funny, really. Initially he had thought it wrong and unjust to compare the little thing to the man that had murdered his brother just by name. It seems he should have in the first place.

 

Moving with cold precision, he sat up once more, swiftly unhooking the harness that kept his leg suspended, withholding the grunt of effort that threatened to escape when he bent forward to unhook it, and the following grunt that demanded release as his leg fell down onto the bed. "It's a shame your pops didn't die instead, I'd've much preferred that." Sliding himself so that his legs hung off the side of the bed, he soon followed suit, as he stood on his good leg, his other one still all wrapped up neat and tidy as he leaned against the bed.

 

"However, a Gorium is a Gorium. I'll put you in the grave if you don't get me some crutches. Right. Fucking. Now."

 

Exhaling, the tall male blew stray hands of hair away from his eyes, ignoring the beads of perspiration on his forehead. "Vengeful brothers aren't exactly the forgiving type, if you couldn't tell by the title. Now hurry the hell up."

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Jake let out a soft groan as he watched his patient stand up. The doctor put away the documents in his hands and turned around, grabbing a syringe from a table as he pursed his lips and turned back to Aaron. "Well, you're not the only who would've preffered that." He said quietly as he walked towards the taller male, holding the syringe in his right hand though hiding it from Aaron.

 

"Stay still for a bit, let me at least give you painkillers..." Jake mumbled out as he tightly gripped Aaron's hand, quickly pushed the needle in and let the liquid flow into the other's blood - it was not painkillers, he'd given his patient sedatives. "Lay down and I'll get right back." The blond said as he tilted his head. This one was causing him far too many troubles... The doctor knew that the sedatives should work quite soon - he'd given the other quite a bit, so he should be asleep in less than ten minutes... For now he had to make sure that the harness would be changed into something that Aaron couldn't get rid off that easily.

[SecretSenpai]

Aaron huffed lightly as the doctor stabbed him with the needle. Yes, stabbed. Aaron didn't even like needles. And now, now he found himself blinking slowly as he stared at the blonde before him. Given the fact that he seldom used medicine—or more realistically, never did—the taller male was rather drowsy in record time.

 

"I think I hate you, doc'." Reaching out once again, he fastened his rough grip on the doctor's arm as he sat down on the edge of the hospital bed. "I swear to God, if you think I trust you enough to let you knock me out so you can do whatever the hell you want, you're wrong." Tugging the male closer, Aaron squinted slightly. A minute has yet to pass, but why was he all blurry? Did he inject him with a tranquilizer? "Dooooooc..ifh you fink..." With a large sigh, he mentally mused at how slow his breathing was becoming. He'd be annoyed if his thinking wasn't rather impaired, he just knew it. Doc would be pretty as a girl. Maybe. Probably. What was going on again?

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Jake sighed softly when he felt the metal grip back on his arm. With a rather blank expression on his face, he nodded at what his patient said and even let out a small smile. "Of course, now you don't look too good..." He pretended to be surprised by how Aaron reacted and gently took the other's hand off of his own. "Don't worry and rest up, okay? I'll get right back with a nice pair of cruches." He smiled gently as he looked over Aaron's body once more, feeling his lips pursing into a frown - he still hated how this guy used his body...

 

With a soft sigh, the blond tried to get the other lay down with soft, gentle movements. "Are you feeling dizzy? Maybe you should stay here for tonight..." He muttered out quietly as he sighed out softly once more and let out a smile while keeping his bright blue eyes on Aaron.

[SecretSenpai]

With another long breath, the male tilted his head back. This just wouldn't do, why was he so tired? The dumb doctor drugged him, that's why. This is why he didn't like doctors, or hospitals. As if he could trust any of them.

 

Either way, Aaron couldn't do anything about it. Only after a few moments of staring blankly at the ceiling did he recognize why he couldn't find the doctor, after which he decided to take a break. Remembering how to move his head, he let it fall forward again, opaque orbs focusing on Jake. As he opened his mouth to speak, only vague sounds that resembled his words came out. 'Ahn...I won't forgive you, damn it.' With that last coherent thought, he pulled himself up onto the damned bed so that he was on his side, unaware of the throb in his leg due to the sedative. Christ, he was tired. A small nap wouldn't kill him, would it? Hah, but you'd never know, it was a Gorium he was dealing with.

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Jake let out a soft smile as he watched the tall male slowly lay down- finally. The doctor let out a soft breath and put a gentle hand on Aaron's shoulder. "Here, now wait a little bit for me and I'll be right back - though you could take a nap as well... I wouldn't want my patient leaving my care like this." The blond smiled softly as he turned around and walked off, immediately going to find someone who would be able to get some construction from which Aaron couldn't remove his broken leg from.

 

After a while, Jake managed to find one - and he immediately showed him to a room where one was. Metal... Yeah, that would hold. Now he just had to get Aaron there - eh, it would be best to carry him there. The blue-eyed male got two guys to carry Aaron to that room when he was fully asleep while he himself went off to take care of his other patients. He needed someone calmer right now...

[SecretSenpai]

Perhaps even before the doctor left the room, the male was fast asleep.

 

His dreams were simply absurd, to say the least. Although he wouldn't remember the majority of the occurrences upon his wake, his thoughts were plagued with distant memories of his brother, whom he had not thought of in quite a while. It wasn't his brother's death that he dreamed of, but rather fond memories of their childhood together. He couldn't quite tell which memory was harder reliving, the good or the bad.

 

At one point Aaron was distantly aware that he was being carried, as his head fell back, long hair slipping past his shoulders. How annoying. In his dream, it felt like he was floating, bobbing up and down in a sea of images. Surely if he tried to reach out and grasp them he would find that he could not, but he found no temptation within himself. Alas, the young doctor's face found its place as well, naturally rising some anger within the male. He hated his kind in general, and now he found more reason to think of the man with such malice. Why was it that his family had such misfortune? He'd never heard of anything of the such happening to his friends. Why did the Jinwoon's have to be cursed by the damned Goriums. Who would have thought that such innocent-looking people could harbor such perversions in their line of work? Aside from himself, of course.

 

Moreover, soon, everything ceased to exist as he fell into a dreamless sleep, washing away the fatigue of such a tiring day.

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Jake sighed softly as he entered the new room of Aaron and let out a small smile once he noticed the other was awake. "Ah, it's good to see you're well." He said softly as he closed the doors behind him. The doctor took his time while walking around the room, opening a window and keeping the lights turned off. "I hope you can forgive me for taking such drastic measures to keep you here, however, as a doctor I simply cannot let my own patient walk out of this hospital while not completely well."

 

The blond turned to Aaron and smiled sweetly as he went to sit down on a chair next to the bed. "I can assure you that I will let the bone heal completely as long as you stay here. As for now, could I get you something?" Jake asked softly as he looked at his patient, calmness residing in his bright blue eyes.

[SecretSenpai]

Aaron was tired. It was morning, and he didn't want to be in a hospital. Same old, same old. Dark eyes watched the doctor as he walked around in the new room, opening windows and spreading sunshine and happiness everywhere. Oh, joy.

 

Focusing his gaze on the other's careless, cheerful smile, he felt a twinge of annoyance. "Mm. Perhaps you could wipe that sick smile off of your face, and let me go. I have a cramp in my thigh, I want to move my leg." Reaching up with his hand, he pushed dark strands of hair from his face as a pink tongue tongue involuntarily peeked out to moisten his lips a bit. "And a glass of water, would be nice. Also, if you think I'm going to forgive you, you're pretty dumb for a doctor." Shifting his gaze back into those blue eyes, he slightly narrowed his own. "Because I'm not."

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Jake kept the soft smile on his face as he shook his head and let out a sigh. "Now now, why can't you just accept the fact that I'm not letting you go?" He asked with a light chuckle as he stood up to get his patient a glass of water. "I won't ask for your forgiveness, you see. As long as you're here and healing properly, that's enough for me - you can hate me, you can curse me, but there isn't really an escape from here." The doctor said with a sweet smile as he passed Aaron a glass of water and sighed out, his blue eyes regaining their seriousness.

 

"Besides, if you need anything, you can press the button right here..." He pointed at a button next to Aaron's arm. "And a nurse will come help you out, okay?" He explained softly as he smiled and looked at the metal construction that was holding his patient's leg up. "I hope you learn to trust me more though. I promise not to give you any more sedatives."

[SecretSenpai]

His face passive, he watched the doctor with annoyance. This was getting old. As his fingers closed around the glass of water, he brought it to his lips. "Well, that's quite alright. But I can't promise that they'll remain alright. You see, my leg is restrained, but my arms are not. And I'm not sure if your perception is sharp enough to notice, so let me just make sure you know."

 

"I do not want to be here."

 

He tilted his head back as he drank, the cool liquid soothing his throat. "You can keep me here if you'd like, sure. As long as I'm behaving. You see, there is no reason to keep someone who is proving to be harmful to the staff. Hospitals are privileges, not necessities." Tightening his grip on the glass, he directed his sidelong glance over at the blonde. "Now, would you be a dear and fetch someone to clean this up?" With that he closed his fist, crushing the glass in his hand, it's crumbling in on itself resulting in lovely shards scattering. Ah, the joys of being a hospital patient.

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Jake sighed out softly as he let out a smile. "I'll make sure to notice the nurses to be ready just in case. If needed, your arms may be restricted as well. It wouldn't be a problem to feed you at all." He said softly as he smiled, yet his eye twiched at the sound of the glass breaking. "Oh, look... I believe I can see your debt to this hospital raising." He said sweetly as he stood up and walked off to get a small broom to clean that up.

 

"Now, you don't think that you're just being here for free, right?" He asked as he looked at Aaron and smiled. "I'm afraid you will have to pay more and more if you hurt the staff- but a psychologist would be free if you ever requested one. I believe I could manage to work that out." Jake talked softly, as if with a little child as he cleaned up the shattered glass and tossed them away. "Did you hurt your hand?"

[SecretSenpai]

At the mention of debt, Aaron's eyes refocused onto the male as he silently watched him. The goddamn nerve. This was exactly his point. "Of course I haven't let that factor slip out of my mind when considering if I'd like to stay in your care, doctor." With a smile, he absently picked out a few small shards of glass from his palm, flicking them onto the floor. Tch, that was really unnecessary, couldn't the glass have been considerate enough to have only scattered on the floor? It seems that everything in these establishments, even glasses, were a hindrance.

 

"Doctor, let me ask you something. If I could not afford to take your father to court for murdering my brother, do you think that I can afford to stay at a hospital?" Not willing to even look at the other male anymore, he held up his hand in front of his face, examining it. It seemed to be alright, which was a relief. It would be a bother for his hand to sting when used, for whatever reason, may it be opening doors to leave the hospital or hitting that damn arrogant bastard before him.

"I will pay what I owe now, so let me leave. I can even pay it in cash, just give me a phone. Will the hospital not have troubles after I trash this room and all of your lovely medical equipment, and then won't be able to repay? I think it's safe for me to answer that on my own: yes. I'm growing tired of this game, and I have a fucking cramp in my fucking thigh. Did I mention this already? Well, either way it seems I have to repeat things rather often in hopes of my words resonating in that thick skull of yours."

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Jake let out a heavy sigh as he turned to look at Aaron with a frown on his face. "If you cannot pay in money, there are other ways. We aren't that ignorant to simply demand our money - you could also stay here longer and work for a while, this way helping us, yourself and even other people." As the blond said that, his voice became soft and somewhat melancholic as he sighed out and looked at the tall, lean male.

 

"I won't let you go like this. Money is not what I seek." Jake explained quietly as he walked towards the other, a frown on his face. "All I want is to see people happy, healthy... I want to see you healthy. I hate to see people wasting their body - just look at all these wounds you have! What was the point of them all? Revenge? Pride? Satisfaction? Can you explain to me why you do this to yourself?" Jake asked quietly as he sat down on the chair next to Aaron. "All I want is to understand and help."

[SecretSenpai]

After listening to the doctor's little rant, the male was even more weary of staying there. However, he was also exhausted. And now, why was he getting so close? He was invading him, and that pissed him off. The fact that he was being physically intrusive as well was annoying. Why was he getting so close?

 

Although the thought of leaning away occurred to him, Aaron decided he was to tired to throw any more rants. In fact, he was currently struggling with withholding his yawn, his eyes slightly tearing up as a result. Gah, he was so tired. Oh, that's right, where was he?

 

Tilting his head, he looked over at the doctor while that cursed yawn escaped anyways. "...Well that's too bad, because it's none of your business, doc'."

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Jake sighed out softly as he closed his eyes for the time being. "Alright." He merely said as he stood up and offered Aaron a small smile. "Now if you don't mind, I will be going. As I said before, you can just call a nurse if you need anything." The short blond said softly as he smiled and walked out the door, his eyes showing a bit of sadness. He truly wanted to help people like Aaron - just, they didn't let him.

 

Silenly, the doctor walked through the hospitals, smiling at the nurses he encountered and also made sure to tell them to have a shot of sedatives ready just in case Aaron needed some. He wasn't too happy about having to use those, but if that was the only way, he would make sure to. The blond didn't want his patient to end up hurting himself or someone else again...

[SecretSenpai]

Aaron was tired, and probably a bit depressed. Or a lot, y'know. Even if he was able to get up, he probably would not be able to anyways, it seemed to require so much effort. With a slight grunt the male stretched forward a bit, massaging the tips of his fingers into the muscles on his thigh. This was all so ridiculous. How could that doctor not understand? Why was he doing this bullshit? Why would he think that Aaron would enjoy being indebted to the likes of him? Bastard.

 

Lying back down on his bed, the male linked his fingers behind his neck, staring up at the ceiling. What was he supposed to do, with all this time he had? After stifling a yawn, he the male decided that he really did need a shower. Looking around, the male clicked his tongue in annoyance. Ah, there it was. Reaching out, Aaron pressed the button that would call a nurse. Wooo, wasn't this going to be exciting.

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

After a bit of time since Aaron pressed the button, a young male nurse entered the room and smiled gently at the lean male. "Hello, what can I do to help?" He asked quietly, almost shyly as he looked at the raven.

 

The man had dark reddish-brown hair and light green eyes - quite an interesting contrast. He was wearing a simple nurse uniform as he walked closer to Aaron, the small smile never leaving his face though it could be seen that the nurse was a bit nervous. Truth was, this was only his second patient - still a newbie here, the young male wasn't too sure of what to do. Even so, he was determined to help in any way he could - practice makes perfect, after all.

[SecretSenpai]

Tilting his head, Aaron shifted his gaze to the person who'd entered the room. Ah, so this was his nurse? In all honesty, he had been expecting a female. Dark eyes studied the male before him. He seemed young, and naive. The type that was all goody-two-shoes and selfless and oh, so willing to help. Tch. However, Aaron did recognize that he was a nice sight to look at. But hadn't the doctor said that he'd warn the nurses about him? This kid didn't look much older than him. Well, at least it wasn't some girl.

 

"..." After giving him the once-over glance again, the ravenette looked over to his restrained leg, absently thinking about his constant cramps. "I am uncomfortable, and want to shower."

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

The nurse let out a small smile as he walked towards Aaron, nodding at his words. "Of course, just... Give me some time to take this off." He said quietly as he sighed out softly and turned to the metal construction - in all honesty, it was really rare for patients to be put in this. The nurse had heard about Aaron and was a bit scared - what if something happened? With this thought in his mind, the young male began taking the construction off, freeing the other's leg after a while.

 

"Please hold onto me while you walk - doctor Gorium asked me not to give you crutches for some reason..." The nurse said softly as he turned to Aaron, ready to help him get out of the bed. He let out a soft breath and glanced back at the metal construction. "And about this... I suppose it wasn't adjusted to your height? I could fix it up once you're done with the shower." The nurse said softly as he smiled gently.

[SecretSenpai]

Aaron watched the male as he freed him from that damned restraint, eyes half lidded. Too bad it wasn't a girl. That way, he would have been more comfortable being more of a bother. Y'know, running away and stuff. The usual.

 

After being freed, the male swung his legs over the side of the bed, grunting in annoyance. "I'm heavy. I'm taller than you, and have a lot of muscle." Gingerly he poked at his wounded leg, kneading the pads of his fingers into the muscles. Why was it that he had to tear muscles in the process? All of this was just annoying.

 

However, the nurse was being nice enough, even if it was part of routine. At east he didn't seem snobby. With a glare, he tested out his leg, finding—to no surprise—that he wasn't able to walk very well. Or at all.

 

"Come on, I'm all hot and sweaty. Where is the fucking shower?"

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

The nurse smiled softly as he shook his head. "I'm not that weak, don't worry." He said with a light chuckle as he walked to Aaron and and smiled, helping him up and stand. "There, now hold onto me." The young male reminded softly as he began walking, slowly, carefully glancing over at the other from time to time.

 

"And by the way, your name is Aaron, right? I'm Mike." He said with a light chuckle as the two of them exited the room and began walking towards the showers which were, thankfully, not too far away from Aaron's room. Mike let out another gentle smile as he walked through the halls, gently keeping the other up.

 

Once they reached the rooms, Mike let out a soft sigh and looked at Aaron before motioning to a chair. "Sit down, I need to put something on your cast so it won't get wet." He explained softly as he smiled and walked over to a nearby cupboard, taking out some plastic wrap from one of the many drawers.

[SecretSenpai]

Aaron practically ignored the other male, only recognizing him with a soft grunt in response to his introduction of himself. Mike, huh. He didn't look like a Mike. Not that it mattered, he simply wanted to shower. And leave. Both would be lovely.

 

He was more than relieved to sit in the chair upon their arrival; Aaron wasn't the type of person who enjoyed leaning upon others, both figuratively and literally. Opaque eyes watched the nurse, studying his movements as he stretched his leg. Tch. He was quite the pretty boy. As his lips parted to probably sexually harass him with words, he thought for a moment. He did look rather timid. Perhaps he should save it for the bastard doc. Sighing, he tenderly stuck out his injured leg, staring at the cast, wanting to massage the irritated muscle above it again. "Hurry up."

[Zombie_In_A_Box]

Mike smiled softly as he nodded and began wrapping the plastic around the cast, making sure to cover everything up. With a soft sigh, the nurse stood up once he was done and smiled softly. "Here, now you can just take off your clothes and I'll be ready to help you out - if you'd like, there is a small stool you could use to sit down in the shower. I suppose it would be more comfortable." He said softly as he smiled and took a step towards the showers.

 

The young male breathed out sofly as he shivered from the last time he had to shower someone - his previous patient was an old woman... Those long breasts, the fatness and... And the smell... Ew.

[SecretSenpai]

Tch. Standing up as well, Aaron took no time undressing himself. Not that it was a huge problem, seeing as he was wearing those shapeless, strange hospital garbs. Someone must have changed him at some point, he just didn't remember. Welp. Tossing the flimsy cloth aside, he looked around. Hm. Perhaps the nurse was right, sitting on a stool would be more helpful. Even standing was unpleasant.

 

Either way, he didn't quite enjoy standing there in the nude. Thus he began to walk towards the showers while his hand pulled the band out of his ponytail, allowing all of his hair to be as reckless as it wanted to be. God, his limp was so annoying. All of this was annoying. Aaron was never one to shy away from his body, he was in fact quite proud of it. His shape, his scars, it never even occurred to him to hide anything. It still didn't, really. But having some nurse see him, especially if he didn't even want to be in the hospital, was... well, annoying.

"Must I repeat myself?"
