Rose whimpered quietly. Her body was limp in AFRs arms. She was exhausted. And in pain. She'd been crying for at least the past day or so. Rose shifted and curled up against him, muttering in Amazian, her accent very heavy as she did so. Oh look. Rose speaks not only in her sleep xD but in foreign tongues in her sleep.

AFR couldn't understand a word of it, but he felt her pain... pain that he supposively caused... "I am sorry, beautiful... please hang on to me... don't let go... I beg of you." as he cursed himself up and down in his head they made it to the medical wing of this giant place. There she was put on the first fresh bed he could find and he got himself some gauze and things to treat her wounds. First the knee that looked really bad. The wound was all sort of infected... It had to be drained of a lot of puss... not glory work, but AFR could do it and wanted to do it, so he did. Kissing her wound after it was all taken care of... he was feeling mighty low bout now... but he always does. "We'll get Hawk over here... you will be good as new... I promise..." after her knee was wrapped. Next it was onto the arm.

Yep. Rose probably felt just as bad as she looked at this point. She was delirious. And still pretty much asleep. Well, half asleep. She made funny noises as he treated the wound. She hadnt been used to being treated normally in years. She was used to instant hawk healing. So it was of course that she would be whimpering. Rose opened her eyes a little and looked down at AFR as he look care of the wounds. She didnt say anything yet.

AFR didn't know what to say either was her eyes fluttered open and she looked down at him... All he could think of was the let down he was for some reason or another. Hawk could have fixed her in 5 seconds, all AFR could do was what he was doing... the arm wound was just as bad and he treated it with just as much care as the first... kissing her shoulder he started wrapping it again... AFR had some medical smarts thank you very much... he rested his hand at hers and hoped she would take it. "From what I have gathered... do I deserve to be here at your side?" He was clueless... "I wouldn't be here on my knees like this if I didn't want you... I wouldn't feel so empty if I didn't care that you have been crying over me." Fuck Lalasa... nothing she could do would even stack up to what he has already done to himself these past 15 minutes or so.

Rose curled up, bringing her knees up to her chest. She made a really quiet whimpering noise. "You said you didnt want me." And just like that, Rose was reduced to nothing. That was all it took. To be told she wasnt wanted. Or to even hear it.

AFR closed his hand and it was empty... he looked at her in disbelief. "When did I ever say that?... please tell me." He honestly did not know, and we all know she could check to verify... "I am not simple, but I would have remembered saying that... ever..." his mind raked for the answer. His head fell into his folded arms on the cot. "I am honest and sincere when I say that you are everything I ever wanted..." He was almost waiting for someone to pop up and say he was on candid camera at this point... but the joke was just on him... this was real and damn it he couldn't remember a thing.

Rose just curled up into her little ball. "The night before last" She muttered. "You dont want me. And you dont have to stick around if you dont want to. I understand if you dont want to be here. I understand completely." She continued. "I'm not good enough. I'm trouble. Really. Don't settle." She pulled herself further up onto the medical bed and culred up even tighter if at all possible.

AFR could not understand it at all... whatever he had done was just unreal. "Please... don't believe that... I don't, not a word of it." Putting two and two together it dawned on him that Assassin had to knock him out of Lukas's trance. "Two nights ago... that was the Lucas fight... He got me under his spell..." He shook his head... it was not an excuse... It was his fault Lukas got that far in the first place. "I won't let you believe that I don't want you... honestly... I don't want to be here forever... but where ever I end up I want it to be with you. I don't settle with you and I don't mind the trouble. You are the best person for me and I love you... I don't know how much clearer to make this... If Lukas got me to say those words... I apologize deeply you had to hear them in my voice... but in my heart lies your true answer." He rested his head on her side and cuddled with her... Rose ball made him sad... he wanted it to open up.

Rose shook her head. She believed what she heard those few nights ago. And she was stuck on it. It had a crippling effect. She was a very emotional person and her life ran off of whether people needed her or not. Or thats how it had been since she began with the SC. She didnt like this. Rose didnt know if she liked this feeling thing. "No you don't." Rose said quietly. Was it her just telling herself that now? Who knew. "You don't want me." She had heard what he said, but it still wasnt easy for her to believe.

AFR's head slunk against her and he held on for dear life. "With every fiber of my being I love you... is that not enough? then what is Rose, you tell the terms... how do I prove it to you?" He closed his eyes... "My heart too is brittle and fragile... I would sooner bleed it dry then mean what you think I said... what I must have said... but I was not me. I was a puppet and Lukas was my puppeteer. He wanted me to say it so he could believe it... You finding happiness must eat at him so..." AFR curled up somewhat like her against her... course he was not as limber. "don't leave me alone... you're all I've got left, Rose."

Something was changing with her emotionally. Something was going on in her head. It was just hard to tell what yet. "No you dont" She repeated quietly. Rose ducked her head down. It just hadnt been her week. Or her month. Things were just not going well were they? Of course not. "You don't need me. You don't want me." She was locking up again. That one little misunderstanding and miscommunication sent her mind into a tizzy. She was locking everything back up very fast.

AFR's heart just sank... this couldn't be happening... three nights ago he had so much planned. He wanted to do so many things with her and now all for not because of bad ventriloquist act. He had to keep talking... "I will never give up on you... I know what we have... I am not going to give it up because of some bitter man's jealousy... you have to believe me... I am sincere, I am absolute... He is playing games with us,... and he is winning, Dearest..." He wouldn't let go unless he was pulled off... "I love you more then this life has too offer you...stop denying it... it is breaking me apart..."

Rose was starting to drown him out with her own thoughts. She didnt want to believe it. Or maybe she did but she wouldnt allow herself to. "This is why I stopped feeling, huh?" She breathed a bitter laugh and ducked her head. "I should have never left... so many mistakes..." Rose whined quietly.
Lalasa stood in the doorway, her face void of any emotion. "I think it is time for you to leave the medical wing." She wasnt looking at AFR but she was speaking to him.

AFR brushed her off and still focused on Rose... "Please... don't stop feeling... it's what makes you who I love... if I am your greatest mistake let me fix it then... please... I can't lose you..." He pleased and started to lose his rock... a tear or two hit her back... but it was all ignored. "You can't slip away... not now... everything has meaning with you, Rose... nothing will mean anything without you."

And there was silence. Rose stared at the wall in front of her as AFR spoke and pleaded with her. "I'm sorry." She said quietly, her voice slipping into a semi-monotone.
Lalasa narrowed her eyes as she heard this. "Get out of the medical wing. Now." Dx MAD LALASA

AFR just laid there... his body went limp and all he got off of her was cold... dead cold... The life drained from every bit of him... "Not even nearly as sorry as I..." So this was how it was all to end...? off this?... "You may have given up on me... but I won't give up on you... you ARE the one that I want... I will never stop loving you..."

Rose hunched her shoulders like she was shielding herself. Or flinching. EITHER OR. She ducked her head. she would not cry. She would not cry.
Lalasa had had enough. She strode over, hooked both her arms in AFR's and hopefully yanked him off the bed. The small girl was a lot stronger than she looked.

AFR started to feel getting pulled away from her... he would have none of that. After getting moved off the bed he broke Lalasa's hold and turned back to Rose... from there he took a knee and put his hand back to her side... "Give me time... time is all I ask... let me try to prove to you once again what was always the truth... I have a witness, an unwilling one, but she will do. I will make things right again. I will bring the spark back into your eyes.. some how I will get your feeling back or I will lose myself trying... you have my word, my beautiful... I will fight forever for it..." That he would... he already was.

Rose pulled herself away, trying to get away from his touch. She didnt want to feel right now. She wanted to lock herself up.
Lalasa growled. "You obviously do not understand how serious I am, Mister Michael Severs. If you do not vacate this wing, I will be forced to take drastic measures."

AFR took his hand away as she tore away from him...
AFR shuddered as he choked back his sob... he walked away... not before going to Lalasa to give her a piece of his mind... he had about enough from her... "Drastic measures???... My world is imploding in front of my eyes and you have the audacity to speak of drastic measures?... Never speak to me again... I could do things unimaginable to myself that you couldn't even touch... right now I could think of a few... She is my light... SHE is my life... and if you can't deal with that then go ahead and fulfill your drastic measures..." He stormed to the door... but softened enough to look back at Rose... he wouldn't break... no... she needed him to be strong... and Lukas... he would feel that...
