Matthew looked at her as she clung to him. Scared that he was not going to make it. Scared that the only way he was going to ever see Viola again was as a ghost. He bit his lower lip as he waited for her to speak. Paling a bit at her words. "I hope he is wrong. He has to be wrong. I don't want to die soon. I want to stick around and stay living so can be with you." He said softly. "Other than being scared you are alright right?" He asked softly. He was really worried about her. "I want you to be here." He whispered. Stroking her hair and pulled her into him more. He looked at Jin. Taking the pill he had forgotten he was holding and swallowed it. Making a face as it tasted awful. He blinked as he heard he was cared about by Tecca. He hadnt realized that. He wasn't used to males actually caring about him.<br/><br/>He jumped as he heard Tecca's pained growl. He blinked as he saw the pool of fading water. He bit his lower lip hearing Tecca groaning. It kind of made him feel bad because Tecca wouldn't be in pain if he hadn't protected him from a mercenary. He still felt kind of guilty about that. He heard the man speaking and saw the wide eyed shock. Had he not been expecting that? What was over there. What was the condition of his body? He looked at him as he watched. He felt some of the pain beginning to lift from his body. He felt his heart slowly start to beat just a little bit faster. He winced and made faces as his shattered ribs began piecing themselves back together. The ventilator havng to work less as his lungs began to weakly pump air through his body again. Weakly but it was an improvement. He looked at Tecca who seemed relieved to be sitting. He didn't feel as much pain. What if he forgot them when he woke up? A guardian angel? Tecca was offering to be his guardian angel or something? What the hell just happened? He looked at his body. It didn't seem so crushed. Even his nose was looking the way it was supposed to. "Is it time for me to go back in?" He asked softly.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">A nurse came in and began checking his vital signs. Blinking and her eyes went wide. "Its a miracle." She said soft hushed voice. Turning the ventilator down some but then had to turn it back up. Shaking her head. She looked at Jin. "His lungs seem to be moving a bit on their own. His vitals are stronger but still kind of weak. I believe he'll make it through the night now though. I'll be sending in the night doctor as soon as he gets in." She said. Bowing to them and walked out after changing the saline water in the iv. "That was a miracle. He is a fighter." She said to herself as she left the room. Completely convinced a miracle happened in this room.</span>
