If I can't have you

He had nothing to do. He was miserable and couldn't do any of the things that would cheer him up. Fix somebodies bones. Off the table for the foreseeable future since that pile up. Make out with his cute, geeky boyfriend. Also off the table because said cute geeky boyfriend was currently treating him like china ever since his brother died. He was just contemplating the possibility of him being able to get over to the window to at least get a change of scenery when the creak of the door altered him to the fact that someone was entering the room. He rolled his head over and saw Levi slip in with two coffees in head. He lifted his head up off the pillow and gave Levi a weak smile. Levi stuck out a hand with a coffee in it and Nico took it graciously. Levi took the chair next to him and asked "Has Link been by yet?" Nico's brow knitted in confusion and shook his head in response.

"Why do you ask?" He said curiously before taking a small sip of his coffee and burning his tongue. Levi just shrugged in response.

"Just some hospital gossip. Apparently Amelia told him some big news and then he apparently panicked. At least according to some nurses from ICU," Levi muttered. As if he had heard them talking about him, Link walked into the room, threw a jacket into a chair and then slid into the chair. His head slumped forwards into his hands and he let out a large groan. Nico snorted and said, "What on earth happened to you?"

Link looked up and responded with a bombshell, "Amelia told me she's pregnant and I freaked out and had a panic attack on her."

"What?" Nico leaned forward in astonishment before feeling a stab of pain and slumping back against his pillows.

"Yeah, you heard right," Link groaned out before throwing his head back and almost hitting it on the wall behind him. "She called me into an on-call room after I finished operating on Crystal, you know the joint reconstruction kid that we've been working with for the past few years?" Link looked towards Nico as if to almost confirm that he knew who Link was talking about and in that brief moment Nico could see the tears that were welling up in his eyes. "She told me she was pregnant and I literally melted down and had a panic attack in front of her. And then I just ran out of the room in embarrassment and haven't talked to her since."

Levi's hand crept onto the bed to find Nico's and lace their fingers together. "Your an absolute idiocy, Link, you do know that right?" Link just nodded in response. They were interrupted by a knock on the door and a policewoman opening the door.

Fallon Lane was relatively new to the job. She'd only graduated from college three years ago and had been with the investigative department for less than eight months. So she was as nervous as she had ever been when she entered that hospital room and seen the broken boy lying in the bed. She cleared her throat and asked, "Mr Kim, do you mind if I ask you a few questions? It shouldn't take too long." The man nodded in response. Fallon watched as what she assumed was the mans boyfriend squeeze his hand and give him a quick kiss before standing up and shepherding a man she had failed to see before out of the room. From various pictures she had seen pinned up around the police room, she thought this may be the boss/best friend of Nico Kim. She couldn't quite remember his name but she remembered it was an unusual one. Something Lincoln that was it. And the boyfriend was Levi Schmitt. Fallon felt fairly pleased at herself for remembering their names and as they left the room, she turned back towards Nico. She watched as he shifted uncomfortably on the bed, clearly nervous about what she wanted to ask him. She approached the bed and sat down in a chair close to it. She flipped open her notebook and leaned down and fished out a pen from her bag.

"Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?" When all she received in response was a nod, she decided to just plunge into the questions she needed to ask. "Mr Kim, we understand that your sister was adopted into the family when she was around three years old and that her parents had died. The information we have found has led us to believe that you and your brother may have caused the deaths of the parents of Min-Jee. Can you tell me anything about that?"

She watched as Nico took a big sigh and took a moment to compose himself before starting to talk. "When I was around two years old, my brother and I were playing out in the street. I don't remember exactly what we were playing but I remember there being a ball involved. I knocked it out into the street and Min-Jun and I both ran out into the street to try and get it. We didn't look and the only other thing that I remember is a screeching, like tyres on a road."

He suddenly stopped talking and Fallon looked up from her notebook to inquire further. She was greeted with the sight of Nico having a seemingly violent seizure. She sat there frozen for a few seconds before remembering the fact that she was in a hospital. She ran out of the room and started to look frantically for a doctor. Her eyes stopped on the two men that had left the room when she had gone in to interview Nico. Both had looked up when she had burst out of the room and both began to rise out of their seats when they saw her.

Frantically she gestured and the one she remembered as Link moved passed her quickly and into the room. She heard him yelling for help, for nurses, for anyone. She looked briefly back over her shoulder and saw that the large metal cage that surrounded Nico's leg was now dented and that his leg seemed to be an unnatural shape. She swallowed hard to try to avoid vomiting and moved away from the door. She then found herself colliding with a body and looked to see herself colliding with Nico's boyfriend, Levi. He seemed anxious, hands wringing and eyes darting frantically between her and the room in which his boyfriend lay. She gave his shoulders a squeeze and gently pushed him towards the chairs where he had been sat before.

The seizure seemed to go on forever in Link's mind. He could already see the damage that was being caused to Nico's body by this violent seizure. The cage that he had so carefully constructed around Nico's leg was now dented from repeated bashing's against the side of the bed and Link knew that he most likely have to operate on that leg again. He swore under his breath, knowing that this would set Nico back by weeks. It would frustrate Nico to no end, not being able to get out of bed, be able to do physical therapy, not being able to go home to his boyfriend or at least that is what Levi had been hoping.
