Vincent had been home for a few days now, not really allowed out of bed too much but he put up a fight about it. The doctors had ended up giving him not only medications for his still healing burns but was also requiring him to be on an oxygen tank to hopefully clear up his wheezing issue. He didn't have a mask this time around but a nasal cannula, making it harder for him to try and rip off when he's moody. Dahlia had been running back and forth with trying to keep him in bed for the most part, never letting him go far from his room so as to keep his burns as little agitated as possible. He seemed to throw fits about this, not liking being contained and babied even though he was in some pain if he kept up with pushing away and such. Currently though, he was sleeping in the safety of his room, buried under blankets as one could hardly hear him wheezing thanks to this new treatment he was on. It was around time to treat and change the bandages over his burns. Dahlia was working on preparing what she needed for such a task, starting to wonder when Hunter was going to show up again.

OOC: I can't log into my hunter account for some reason only my jack so I am going to have to use jacks account just to reply to anything since I have no Internet access to use a computer.

IC: Hunter had been out patrolling the perimeter of Bitter Springs with Jack. Lately, alot of rogue werewolves have been trying to get into the city and Jack had been given the lovely task of making sure that the rogues were under control and not to many were getting in. Alot of these rogues weren't exactly the nicest of all people.

Hunter had been wanting to see Vincent and felt bad that he had been able to go and see his boyfriend since he knew that he had gotten out of the hospital a few days ago. He wasn't able to text or call Vincent at all these past few days and finally Jack allowed him to leave to go and see Vincent.

He didn't bother to use the front door, instead he jumped into the ledge of Vincent's window and quietly entered the others room. He looked at Vincent, smiling some at his boyfriends sleeping form and very carefully pulled a chair up to his bed, sitting down and just looked at Vincent for a moment and gently kissed his head.

Vincent could have been considered dead weight in his sleep, only the sound of his breathing really showing he was alive under the covers. He didn't stir much when his window opened, thinking no one would try to intrude on his second floor window. He even looked peaceful up until he felt what he believed was a kiss. He still faught to wake up some, emerald eyes opening slowly before noticing Hunter was there. His expression seemed to light up then, but he didn't move too much, smiling at the wolf.
"I missed you. What's going on outside that has you so busy?"
Slowly he started to sit up, reaching for one of Hunter's hands afterwards just to feel closer to the wolf again. Was trying not to complain about being stuck at home but he was getting tired of it, he'd already been sick before he was possessed and now after nearly 3 weeks of being bed bound? It's no surprise he was starting to get moody and restless.Right now though, he seemed okay, and he'd more than likely stay tht way until Dahila came in to change his bandages.

He smiled at the other and gently took his hand and kissed the back of it. "There are some rogue wolves trying to enter the city, Jack and myself have been keeping them at bay and under control." He said with a smile.

"Are you feeling better?" He asked softly and leaned over and gave him a gentle kiss on the cheek.

Vincent seemed much better than when he was in the hospital. He nodded some at hearing about the rouges. He ended up looking a bit longing out the window before snapping back to what was asked. He gave a warm smile at this, seeming a tiny bit tired still.
"yeah. I'm still not too happy about the extra treatments and being bed bound for the most part but better here than the hospital."
He gave a tiny blush at the kiss, having missed the other when Dahlia walked in with a tray of sorts. She didn't so much as bat an eyelash at seeing Hunter, setting the tray on the desk as she spoke.
"You know we do have a front door Hunter, If I'd known you were here I'd have made more tea but since you are here could you be as kind as to get Vivi to work with me?"
Said witch was already pouting, glaring some at his sister and the tray as it meant he had to have his bandages changed. He seemed persistent with not going along with it too as he had folded his arms over his chest so as to prevent Dahlia from removing his shirt to get to the bandages underneathe.
"Distract him or something please? This has really started to take its toll and I don't want to start using magic..."

He smiled and before he could say anything to his love, his sister suddenly walked in. She didnt even bat a eyelash that him being in here and looked at her with a small smile at her request.

Vincent of course was going to he difficult and lightly squeezed his hand."Vincent......when you get out of being bed ridden, what would you like to do?" He asked.

Vincent still seemed more in a mindset to glare and put up a fight than to comply with Dahlia right now. He looked over confused at the squeeze to his hand but then seemed to focus more so on the question. His body relaxed some as his thoughts were a little rapid fire.
"I want to go to the park. I don't like being locked up in here."
As he was looking at Hunter, it gave Dahlia the time to get his pajama top off and to start unraveling the bandages. They looked like they honestly needed to be changed but it was starting to show why it was so difficult to change them as Vincent pulled his arm away with a gurgle. He shot a look at dahlia, still clearly not wanting her to touch him. She sighed at this, wishing he wasn't so darn stubborn.
"it's just bandages Vivi there's no pain in this."
He was still just glaring at her, flinching a tiny bit as Dahlia took his arm back, the healing burns not looking as bad as before.

He hoped that by just talking to Vincent that it would help with changing his bandages. He smiled some at the answer."Then the park is where we shall go." He said.

He sigh at the stubbornness."Vincent....it needs to be changed...." He said and gently kissed his boyfriends hair.

Vincent looked to brighten up at hearing they would get to go to the park once he was better, distracting him enough to get a majority of his bandages changed. He started to get a bit annoyed when his chest bandages were messed with, going as far as pushing Dahlia's hands away and wrapping his arms around himself to cover them. It was almost as if he were embarrassed over them.
"I don't want to change those...those actually hurt..."
They were the only burns that still throbbed if he moved around too much. It could also be factored in that he was ashamed of them and wanted to keep them hidden like the scars on his back. He knew it was a dead language they were shaped in, he just didn't want anyone else to see them, much less Hunter right now.

Hunter watched as Vincent was being even more stubborn when it came to his chest wounds. He looked to Dahlia for a moment with a somewhat sad expression and gently pried his loves arms from his chest.

"If you don't let Dahlia change the bandages they will never get better." He said softly.

Vincent whined some when his arms were being pulled away from his chest, making him squirm some and unable to look at Hunter.
"just...don't look okay? I really don't like how they look..."
Dahlia could only give a soft smile for comfort as he was finally able to let her change the bandages. These burns seemed a little worse off than his arms, it rather visible that he didn't like them to be touched or even looked at with how he kept flinching and even hissing at one point with a glare at his sister over it. Thankfully it was the last of the bandages, letting him relax a tiny bit while dahlia picked up.
"Thank you for the help Hunter, now I'll go make you boys something to eat, sound fair Vivi?"
He wouldn't look at her as he was putting his shirt back on, seeming a bit slow and even shaky with buttoning it since his chest was sore now. She could only sigh at this before leaving the two alone for a while to make lunch and prep Vincent's daily medications and painkillers.

He nodded and didn't look, just distracting Vincent from the bandages being changed. Once they were done, he smiled and nodded at what Dahlia said before looking to Vincent.

He kissed the others curly hair before sighing softly. I love you. He said.

Vincent watched Dahlia leave, finally sighing as of relieved that she was no longer there. He was resisting at pulling at the oxygen cable he had before Hunter had kissed his hair again. He gave a small blush at the kiss, the words making it darker.
"I love you too!"
He had picke up hunter's hand and pressed it to his cheek, almost seeming to cling to the touch since he missed the other so much. He tried his best to give a bright cheery smile, but it looked rather tired and even broken. He let out another sigh, his eyes looking like they were drained of energy.
"I...I keep having nightmares...Octavien is in them...it's like he won't let go...."
He seemed to be trying to pull Hunter feebly closer to him, wanting to hug the wolf more than anything right now. He hasn't told Dahlia about the nightmares yet and he honestly wasn't planning to but they were starting to make him hurt again, mainly his chest, hense why he never liked those bandages to be changed.

He smiled and gently stroked the others cheek once his hand was pressed against Vincent's face. He was going to say something when the other suddenly started to explain that he had been having nightmares about Octavian. He frowned at this and decided to be gentle and laid down beside of Vincent.

He wrapped his arms around the witch, pulling him close. He can't hurt you anymore. He said.

Vincent had let his eyes shut when his cheek was rubbed slightly, trying to calm down some before Hunter chose to crawl into bed. The young witch seemed to latch onto holding Hunter as soon as he could, not seeming to care that it hurt his burns some As he tightened his hold on the other. He seemed to try and snuggle close, hiding his face before speaking up with his thoughts.
"they make the burns hurt though...it's like he's still here and trying to take my magic..."
He wanted to cry but held it back. He knew he was safe and he honestly believed he was safe but there was just too much going on in his head after his element alignment was forced to Darkness. Pairing that with his burns its rather stunning he just hasn't lost his mind yet.
