All Chapters of Mark Me Yours: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Once they were finally back at the hotel, things were in danger of getting as steamy as their engagement night, when Rayan put a sudden abrupt pause on their tongue wrestling. "I almost forgot to give you your birthday present!" He exclaimed, running to his suitcase to dig around. He came back with a slightly smashed gift bag, which had been stapled shut across the top. "It's nothing fancy, but it was my first time trying something like this. I couldn't really afford any merch that would make a good present, so I found a tutorial to make something, and... well

Scott smiled fondly at the picture frame on his desk. The shell Rayan found for him was taped to the glass, and inside was a picture of Rayan from the Butterfly Pavilion. It was Scott's favorite photo from their trip. Rayan was practically covered in rainbow lorikeets, a smile on his face, and the sun hit his eyes just right, making them glow a honeyed gold. His birthday gift graced his office couch, and a picture of the two of them on the beach was his new phone background. He knew that trip was a good idea. Just last week he'd put their newfound knowledge of

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!! Scott burst into the emergency room, nearly sprinting to the front desk. Still in his pajama pants, he'd thrown on whatever shirt was closest, and his coat, before rushing out of his apartment. He even forgot to put on socks.

Looks like he's still in surgery. If yo

Rayan decided very quickly he was not a fan of being fed like this. Not that Scott was doing a bad job, it was just embarrassing. The food wasn't even that good. But, Rayan put up with it.

Michael watched on awkwardly, until Rayan's phone started vibrating in his back pocket. "I've got to take this call," Michael said as he stepped out.

They spent the rest of the day watching television. Rayan dozed off and on because of the pain meds. By his own rules, the teddy bear wasn't allowed out of the bed. If he was awake he was talking, even if he didn't have much to say. Dinner was served early, and even though Rayan got to pick what he wanted from the hospital menu, it still wasn't very good. Scott got him to eat most of it, promising he himself would get something to eat later. After dinner came bath time. A team of two nurses came in to do the job, and Scott was right in there with them, determi
