Chapter 50: Morphine-Laced Tears
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Once Sandra and the driver had lifted Dillon down off the ambulance on the stretcher, Tony hopped off and followed them into the hospital with their things. It was a pretty quick affair to get him set up and into a room. Thankfully, the ER didn't look busy in the least. All the better for him, he'd be able to get his tests done quicker and potentially leave sooner. That is, if they didn't decide to keep him for the night. Sandra had mentioned he was concussed, and it was dependent on the results of a head CT scan to find out if it was bad enough that he needed observation.

For a few weeks after Dillon's initial injury, he wasn't down for much. He would still come over to Tony's on Friday and stay until Saturday or sometimes Sunday, but they didn't do anything outside of rest and recuperate. The thing Dillon struggled with most was the pain in his arm. It seemed to be constant and Tony wished he could have done something more to help. There was nothing out there that had ever made him feel so helpless as the sight of someone he loved in pain.The hospital and the doctors and nurses that tended to him did a good job on pain management.

All clean and dry, Tony stepped out of the steamy bathroom in a pair of maroon and gold Gryffindor boxers. He was a Harry Potter fan too, ok? Piss off. As he walked out to the living room, his attention was drawn to his phone as it pinged and vibrated on the table. When he picked it up and swiped it open, he was shocked to see that it was almost nine thirty. Had he really taken over an hour in the shower? Well, it had been worth it. His neck felt infinitely more relaxed after he let the hot water pound away at it. There were three missed texts from Dillon that he quickly tapped open.

Tony knew exactly what went through the stupid little shit's mind as he stood out on the porch and waited. Last time, Tony had conspired with Mrs. Tracey to steal Dillon's win. This time, he'd put money on it that Dillon conspired with his own mother to steal his win. How did he not see that before? It irked him to no

At the end of the strip, Tony hung a slow left to pull into the alley between the wall and abandoned K-Mart. When he was considerably out of view in the shade of the building, he turned the key in the ignition and killed the engine. They both unbuckled their seat belts and Dillon turned his body towards him, eyes bright with need. Tony said punishment, but he knew by the poorly concealed smile Dillon had when he reached his hand out and smacked him across the cheek that he was into it. When they met gazes again, Dillon had his 'Bring it'

The flow of the whole trip was much smoother once they hit the road again. The two of them laughed and carried on to Avenged Sevenfold and Led Zeppelin in the background. They had been on the Atlantic City Expressway for some time, almost an hour, before they realized they had both forgone a proper breakfast. As much as they had discussed that once on the road, they wouldn't make unnecessary stops, they stopped at the first rest stop they happened upon. Though their little detour in the K-Mart alley had happened around an hour and a half before, Dillon was still a bit flushed from the intensity of the experience.

As the hand that gripped Dillon's right wrist tightened and pulled slightly, he groaned softly and took another breath. What were his options? The arm around his neck was a no-go, but if he could free his right arm, perhaps he'd have the leverage to flip him? If he could pry his thumb off, he could break his grip. 'Fuck! That's out too!' Dillon thought bitterly as he

"Good man, I'm glad to hear. I remember that day like it was yesterday. Such simple, innocent times, eh?" Tony yawned and gave a content stretch. Dillon could relate, his body was pleasantly heavy and his vision had a warm fuzziness edge to it, if that made any sense.
