[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

Okay this is the next chapter. I'm trying to update more often, but I'm not sure how much time it will be between chapters.
 
Again if anyone has ideas for names I'd love to hear them.
Constructive Criticism is welcome
 
Chapter 11

“Treize? Treize are you listening to me?” Sally asked irritated as Treize paced back and forth in the hospital room.
 
“He'll be fine in just a couple of weeks. It's nothing to worry about as long as it's treated properly.”
 
“But what if it wasn't treated. The virus could have killed him. The fever it causes alone would have killed him, and he didn't tell anyone he was sick. What if he has been by himself when he passed out? It could have been hours before anyone found him.”
 

Sally sighed and put down Wufei's chart. He'd come in only a few hours before, and was still unconscious. As it would turn out, he had a virus that, while very easily treated, could kill if nothing was done about it.
 
With Wufei's stubborn refusal to admit that he was sick, the virus had reached a later stage that would take longer to treat.
 
“But he wasn't alone. He was with you, and he'll be fine now. He can even go home as soon as he wakes up. He'll have to stay home until the virus us completely gone. You should be worrying about how you're going to get him to rest, rather than going straight back to work.”
 
Treize just shook his head and sat down in a chair beside Wufei's bed. He heard the door shut as Sally finally gave up talking to him and left him alone with Wufei.

Several hours later, Wufei slowly began to regain consciousness. It took him a few seconds to wake up enough to register where he was: a hospital. Wufei had to fight the urge to panic. There had to be a reason he was here.
 
`I remember going out to lunch with Treize, but…' Suddenly Wufei realized that he had no memory of what had happened after he and Treize had arrived at the restaurant. The urge to panic quickly grew stronger. The fact that he was alone and Treize was not in the room only made things worse.
 
`Treize knows why I hate hospitals. He wouldn't leave me here by myself, so why isn't he here?' Slowly Wufei sat up in the hospital bed and noticed the I.V. in his arm for the first time. As calmly as he could Wufei pulled the I.V. out and cautiously got out of the bed.
 
`Sally is probably in the hospital somewhere. She'll know where Treize is, and why I'm here.' Using that thought to keep himself calm, Wufei walked over to door and opened it. There was no one in the hall, but Wufei could hear people talking near by.
 
He was almost to the end of the hall when Treize walked around the corner.
 
“Wufei! What are you doing out of bed! You need to be resting.” Before Wufei could protest Treize started leading him back to the room he had woken up in and gently pushed him back onto the bed.
 
“Treize, what am I doing here?” Wufei asked quietly after he was once again lying down in the bed.
 
“You don't remember? You passed out at the restaurant. Sally says that you have a virus that could have killed you.” Treize gripped the edge of the bed hard to keep himself under control. “Why didn't you tell someone! What if you had been alone somewhere when you passed out! It could have been hours before someone found you!”
 
Wufei couldn't look at Treize when the other man was so obviously mad at him, and with just cause. Wufei had known that he was sick and had refused to tell anyone. If something had happened to him it would have been his own fault. Suddenly a thought occurred to Wufei.
 
“Is the baby alright?” If he had hurt his child he would never forgive himself. He had more than just himself to take care of now.
 
“The baby appears to be fine. Sally ran a few tests just in case. She should be back with the results soon.” Wufei winced at the tone Treize used. He was obviously very upset with Wufei.
 
“Treize, I'm sorry…I didn't mean to…”
 
“Whether or not you meant to it's done now and it can't be changed.” Treize cut Wufei off mid-sentence. Wufei took that as a sign that Treize did not want to talk right then. Looking down at the bed covers, Wufei fought against the tears that were gathering gin his eyes.
 
`He had every right to be mad at me. I screwed up again, and I could have killed our child. I have no right to be upset. It's my own fault.' No matter what he told himself, Wufei couldn't stop the tears from falling.
 
Suddenly Wufei felt arms wrap around him, and he was pulled onto Treize's lap.
 
“Shhhh, it's alright Wufei. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you. You scared be badly. I don't know what I'd do without you. Just promise me you won't do anything like this again.” Wufei nodded against Treize's chest.
 
“It's my fault. I'm sorry. I won't do it again. Don't leave. Please don't leave.” Treize could barely hear Wufei's whispered response. His words were nearly drowned out by sobs.
 
“Wufei I promised you I would never leave you and I meant it. You could never do anything that would make me change my mind. It's not your fault. I know you hate hospitals, and you try to avoid going to them, but I can't help if I don't know what's wrong. Just please don't hide things like this from me.” Wufei slowly stopped crying and just rested against Treize's chest.
 
“Are you alright now?” Treize asked gently. Wufei nodded slowly while looking away from Treize.
 
“Stupid hormones.” Treize shook his head and pulled Wufei's chin up so he could look into his face.
 
“It's more than that. You still don't trust that I'm not going to leave you.” Wufei tried to look away from Treize, but a firm hand on his chin stopped him.
 
“Somehow I'll find a way to prove to you that I'm not going to leave. I promise.” Gently Treize kissed Wufei leaving him slightly dazed.
 
“Am I interrupting something?” Wufei nearly fell off of Treize's lap in shock. Only Treize's arms still around his waist kept him from falling onto the floor. Treize just smiled and laughed at Wufei's reaction.
 
“Not at all. Do you need something?”
 
“I just came to tell you that the tests came back fine.” Turning her attention to Wufei Sally suddenly became very serious.
 
“I'm not going to lecture you on how dangerous what you did was because I know that Treize has probably already done that for me. However, you are not going back to work and you're going to start coming in for weekly check-ups so nothing like this happens again. Do I make myself clear?”
 
Wufei nodded meekly knowing that he couldn't argue with her.
 
“Okay then. I already called Une and told her that you were officially on leave, so she already knows. If you're ready to leave, then I can go get you a prescription for antibiotics that you're going to have to take then you can get out of here.”

…See I'm not trying to hurt Wufei. He's fine… for the moment. *Whistles innocently*
Anyway, what do you all think? I got this chapter done a whole lot faster than the last one. I actually had a free weekend to work on this one. I'm not sure when the next one will be done, but I'll try to get it done soon. Thanks to everyone who reviewed. I really love to hear what everyone thinks.
