Double Dipped 30:

Silver Lining

Andy choked back a sob as she got a good look at Dee. He sat in the infirmary at Ryo's bedside. His dark hair hung limply and looked as if it had not been washed in the three days that Ryo had not opened his eyes. “You have to try to eat something,” Count D said gently and placed a soft hand on Dee shoulder. Dee stared at the food as if it had no right to exist as long as Ryo eye's remained closed. Count D sighed and handed the plate to Leon who took it away. Count D took in Dee's sunken eyes and pale skin so different from the robust man he had come to know and care so much about.

“Baby, I need you to open your eyes.” Dee said when Count D gave him another pat and left him alone. “Please, just open your eyes.” D stretched out in the bed and pulled Ryo into his arms and held him tightly needing the reassurance of his warmth that his lover was still alive.

JJ wanted to believe Sofu, but as another day passed and still Lord D was still unable to sit up he grew worried. “I thought you said he was stronger than D because of his age, D was at least able to sit up.”

Lord D raised a trembling hand and placed it heavily upon JJ's arm. But he could not garner the energy to speak. “I gave him a sedative,” Sofu explained and tucked his son more securely into bed. “He is in a lot more pain than you know, and D experienced. Yes he has stitches and so did D. But D did not tear during delivery. The rip went upwards towards his testicles. He will be on his back for some time yet. Now please, your sons are hungry.” Sofu said softly and went to pick up one of the whimpering babies. JJ picked up the other one and they both sat in silence. Both thinking of how much they loved Lord D and wanted him to get better.

Andy held tight to Nestoir as she walked into the infirmary and saw Dee curled up holding on to Ryo's still form. “I know you fear for me, but I can do this.” Andy whispered.

“You are my wife and the mother of my child, how can you think I wold ever condone you putting yourself at such a risk.” Nestoir said just as quietly. “You do not know how far he is, you could get trapped.”

“That's why I want Angel with me, he can track me in the mist better than anyone and he can pull me out if it is necessary.” Andy replied her voice rising a bit and causing Dee to jerk awake and look around ready to protect Ryo.

“It is just us, there is no need to crease your bow with worry,” Nestoir said reverting to his odd poetic syntax caused by thinking in ancient Greek and translating to English in his mind.

A light turned on in the room and Bikky walked in holding tight to little Lyo's hand. “What's going on guys?” Bikky asked and looked at Ryo. He had hoped that the light and people meant that Ryo had awakened he forced down bitter tears that his hope had been false. When Jill had went to the pet shop to pick them all up he had demanded to know why Ryo wasn't there. Jill had sighed and said nothing. All she could tell him was that Leon had called and asked her to bring them to the consulate. Chris was silent and held tight to his little badger friend. Another light could be seen coming down the hallway and Leon rounded the corner into the light and shut off his flashlight. D stood beside him holding Aoi.

“Let me just call for Angel, we can do this.” Andy persisted, she saw her husband falter and latched on to his arm. “I can't bear to see so many people suffer.”

“Dee... Dee... They... They are behind you.” Dee gasped and looked down as startling dark eyes opened and blinked several times. “I'm coming, love, watch out.”

“RYO!” Bikky yelled and launched himself at the prone form on the bed. Ryo winced when the smaller body collided with his. Dee still stared in shock as the words Ryo had mumbled began to make sense.

“Ow uh, Bikky, get off.” Ryo said and wrapped his arms around his son to hold him close. Ryo frowned he was so weak. “What happened?”

“You had a concussion, you have been out for three days.” Sofu said as he weaved his way around the many people that cluttered the infirmary. Sofu gently applied pressure to Dee's arm and he moved aside from the bed. Sofu had to physically life Bikky from the bed and set him aside. Dee gawked in amazement at the small Asian man as he lifted the tall gangly teen.

“Hey man, put me down, “Bikky protested not wanting to release the blankets tucked around Ryo. “I'm not a kid dammit I'm thirteen.”

Ryo sat up and held his head against a wave of dizziness. “Bikky ... mouth,” Ryo muttered. Dee moved aside to get Ryo a glass of water and heard a gasp. He moved the waste basket over just as Ryo turned green and puked in front the crowd full of people. Ryo heaved before he fell back against the bed with his hand over his eyes.

“I'm sorry Ryo, daddy, I'll never swear again,” Bikky promised and looked anxiously at Sofu. “He'll be ok?”

“I will decide that after I examine him, everyone out, except you detective Laytner you may remain.” Sofu said crisply and washed his hands. Andy wiped happy tears from her eyes and left with her husband. Count D smiled brightly at his grandfather before he and Leon departed ushering Bikky and Lyo back to the room they had been sharing with Chris.

JJ sat on the bed with tears falling down his face as he stared at Lord D. He slept deeply, JJ had lifted his arm and it had fallen to the bed like a dead weight and he had not moved. He thought Kami's were supposed to heal quickly. He had done this to Lord D. He had loved him too much. “He loved you just as much,” JJ looked up at Lady Aurora and tried not to weep openly on the ancient vampire's deep red velvet blouse. “It is quite alright child, your tears won't stain.” She said and wrapped her arms around the young man. “Think of how much you have done for him, how much you loved each other. My son would have remained traumatized if you had not shown him the truth of love. Wounds heal child, he will be up before you know and you will both share in raising my grand children.” Lady Aurora walked over to the large bassinet and looked in on the sleeping babies.

With a smile she left JJ alone in the room. JJ wondered how Lord D's hair had gotten in a braid. It had been loose only moments before. He figured that Lady Aurora had used her exceptional gifts to put the neat plait into her son's hair. JJ stroked Lord D brow before he settled down and drifted off into a fitful sleep.

The sun rose higher in the sky close to noon and Dee stared intently at Ryo's face willing his eyes to open. Last night Sofu had cautioned that Ryo might slip back into unconsciousness, but Dee held hope. He saw Ryo's eyelashes flutter and he sighed. He blinked unexpected tears from his eyes and he gazed at the strong masculine face with feminine features. It was such a contrast, his Ryo's face. Just like his body, all angles and pale skin. Light hair and dark eyes. Ryo was his perfect conundrum, like Monopoly and Sudoku rolled into one enticing puzzle.

“Hey gorgeous,” Dee said and watched those unbelievably long lashes lift and reveal the deep pools within. Ryo tried to say something but nausea quelled the need to do anything but retch. Dee held him over a pail that Sofu had left for just such an occurrence. “It's ok, Sofu said that you might be queasy for a few days. You have to stay off your feet.” Dee said and kissed the lids that remained closed after Ryo had flopped back on the bed and breathed deeply.

“Bikky and Lyo?” Ryo asked not opening his eyes but smiling at the gentle caress of Dee's lips across his cheeks. He felt a wet cloth softly being drawn across his lips and he smiled.

“Bikky is at school and Lyo is with D and Leon. You just get some rest and get better ok.” Dee made and odd sound and Ryo moved his hands to see tears falling down his face. “Promise me that the next time you see something coming me, you let me get the concussion, I can't handle seeing you hurt.”

“I'm a cop Dee, a damn good one.” Ryo interjected and dragged a shaking hand across Dee's face.

“I know, but you are also my love and I... I'm not that strong.” Dee said and broke. He crawled into bed and placed his head on Ryo's shoulder. Ryo brought his arms around Dee and held him.

“Yes you are.” Ryo whispered and kissed the top of Dee's head.

Clarisande waited a moment before she made her presence known. “Sofu D said that you can have some broth and herbs. It should help your stomach and the weakness you feel.” She said explaining the tray and the steaming bowl she offered to Dee. Dee was silent in his embarrassment. He wiped his face and helped Ryo to sit up. Clarisande smiled over her shoulder as she left him to feed Ryo blowing each spoonful carefully to make sure it was not too hot.
