Who: Arian Alcott with Sasha Stanford, Jesse Hartley, Riley Bryant and Justin Campbell
What: Sickness and pain
Where: Mount Sinai, NYC
When: After this and this

It was somewhere around four am when Ari was running at full speed through the hospital. His boots were slamming against the linoleum with every step and adrenaline was rushing through his body. That horrible page had come through. The one he didn’t want to want to receive, but that there was a significant risk that would. Not like this, though. Even with trying to preempt the worst case scenarios, it still sunk below that. And quickly. So fucking quickly, apparently.

He had just bolted from the ICU that was in complete lockdown with Mark telling him to ‘Just go to Sasha, wait for his mom to get there!’ Sasha, who had just been rushed down to the ER on a gurney covered in blood because Justin had thrown a chair at him. Justin had regained consciousness in the worst way he possibly could and too quickly for anyone assess the direct risks. He was delirious and very likely psychotic and seemed to think Sasha was someone who was trying to murder him. He definitely wasn’t seeing him as Sasha. Justin didn’t wake slowly or gradually. It was like he got caught in a severe night terror that ripped him to consciousness, causing him to tear out not only the breathing tube from his throat, but all the IVs that was feeding into him.

Sasha had raised the alarm, screaming for help, but even by the time the staff got to Justin, he had been off the bed trying to protect himself from what his brain was making him believe was someone trying to murder him... )

Who: Paris and Gen Hart
What: Family
Where: Mount Sinai
When: Saturday

Normally, Paris would go straight home after his treatment, usually to bed. Today wasn't a normal situation, though. Far from it. He had been kept in the loop with what was going on, but as much as he normally would have rushed tot he hospital to help out if he could, he wasn't well enough to hit the ground running. It would only make things messier if he was getting in the way in the middle of the night when shit was hitting the fan and he could well end up wiped out way worse for days. He had to be at the hospital at six am anyway, today being one of his early morning starts. Instead of getting Mikey to take him straight home, he went up to the ICU where he knew Gen would be. Mikey went out to hit the shops to get a get well present for Justin. Uncle prerogative, especially when you felt helpless in any other way.

Getting there, he immediately spotted a maintenance crew working on fixing the smashed window, the area cordoned off with hazard tape. He enquired what room Justin was in now, only to be gestured to the room directly in front of the large circular nurses' station in the middle of the unit. Made sense. Gen was sitting with Justin and he already knew Mark was at a doctor's appointment of his own. That was one of the biggest swinging factors for Paris to make sure he got there that morning, so Gen didn't have to do it alone. "Hey, fancy seeing you here. I was just in the neighbourhood, thought I'd stop by," he said, taking the seat beside her and leaning over to kiss her cheek. "I'd offer to get you coffee, but if I don't sit, I'm going to puke. How you holding up, sis? Any news?"

Sometimes, the worst battles are within us. I wish I could take all your pain away, baby. I wish I could give you peace. Fuck knows, you've fought hard enough for it.

Who: Cruz Quinlan and Hunter Alexander
What: Mon époux...
Where: Las Vegas, Nevada
When: Saturday night, after this

Hunter might have been with Cruz when he selected his own wedding outfit, but he could never have anticipated he would look this amazing. Cruz had chosen a red silk lace Gucci top with a black leather corset beneath it. It had been paired with very tight-fitting slender black silk pants with a fly that laced up with a velvet ribbon. On the face of it, it looked like almost a gothic outfit, but Cruz paired it with black knee-high heeled boots with roses embroidered up the sides, a ruby choker necklace and he was wearing makeup. Nothing subtle. Heavy smoky eye makeup with guyliner, deep red lipstick and red nail polish. His hair was chin-length now and he wore it loose around his face. Hunter was pretty sure he fell in love with him all over again as soon as he saw him arrive in the beautiful function hall that the wedding planner had transformed for them.

He hadn’t known how far Cruz was ready to take everything today, but he knew you didn’t just throw together a look like this unless you were feeling it naturally inside you. With Cruz’s latest revelation, Hunter realised right along that the signs were there from that first moment he met Cruz. Out on that high ledge of the apartment building, Cruz had been wearing makeup. Had more precipitated that breakdown? So very likely, now that he thought about it and now he had Cruz’s direct confirmation. Cruz eased into the whole thing weeks ago by framing it as a kink. It was never a kink. It was his identity, which he now finally had the courage to open up about.

Cruz was stunning. Hunter couldn’t take his eyes off him. Something just fell into place in that moment... )
