Realistic or Modern Be Ready For Me

[decadent-rider]

He smiled and gently tugged on her to come a little closer "Don't tell Maya." He murmured, glancing up when there was a nurse coming to collect him to take him for a couple tests, "Get some rest." He told Max quietly.

"He'll be back in about an hour hopefully." She told the wife, getting everything arranged to move him "Gonna be a CT and then an ECG, they want to see if the antibiotics are starting to help at all yet." She told them both

Carmen woke up to an empty bed late into the moning and grumbled a little, going to find Noah with the cat hot on her heels, eventually finding him sat in his home studio and she wandered over, slipping her arms around him gently, "Mmm... Did you feed Void this morning by any chance?" She asked him quietly, kissing the top of his head.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max nodded and stood up to give him a quick kiss "I love you, I'll be here when you get back okay?" She said softly before they took him off.

Noah nodded some as he stared at the computer screen trying to figure out the song "Yeah I did, he was yelling at me all morning." He said with a small smile as he petted behind the cat's ears whwn he felt him brush against his legs "You sleep good?"

 

[decadent-rider]

She nodded and kissed his cheek, "Actually for once I did. No weird dreams." She smiled, "Don't work too hard." She told him. "I'm popping out for some shopping. If I stop for coffee on the way home I'll text you so don't have the phone on silent please." She murmured, standing as he turned in the chair and leaned down to peck his lips "Drink lots of water alright? I love you." She murmured, heading back to their oom to get ready for the day

Will smiled and waved a little as they moved him out and he just listened while they explained what was gonna happen, his mind on Max and hoping she was gonna be looking after herself until around halfway through the CT scan he frowned a little. "I feel funny." He told them, not quite able to pinpoint what the feeling was but knowing somethign wasn't right.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Noah gave her a tired smile and nodded some "I will, I promise." He murmured before kissing her back. He smiled some as Void jumped into his lap and chuckled a bit "I guess I got a work buddy now."

Max was getting worried when she noticed it had been nearly 2 hours since he left. She stepped out and went to the nurses station "Hi....um do you have any updates on William Ramos? He went to get a CT scan over an hour ago."

 

[decadent-rider]

She smiled and nodded, rubbing his back a little and finally headed out to go get her errands done, texting Nick while she was out to ask if he would be okay to check in on Noah with a text or call at some point as she was getting worried again, just hoping he'd be alright to do this european festival stint he had coming up.

She glanced up at the woman and shook her head, "Not yet, but sometimes these things take longer. There might have been a couple emergencies that meant he had to wait a bit longer for his test." She explained, sending her to go wait again. It was another ten minutes before she called her back up and wrote down a room number for her "He's been moved to a different room. They've put him into the cardiac care unit. Take a left at the end of the hall, elevator to the third floor and then straight ahead of you and they'll be able to tell you more." She explained.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Noah looked at his phone a couple hours later seeing Nick's name flash. He gave a heavy sigh and answered after a few rings "Hey whats up man?" He asked as he leaned back in his chair petting Void gently.

Max frowned deeply and gave a small nod before gathering her things out of that room and rushing to where they told her. She got to that nurses station and took deep breaths to try and stay calm "William Ramos? I'm his wife."

 

[decadent-rider]

Nick frowned at the tone of his voice. “What’s going on? You barely say a word to anyone at the studio the other day, barely answering your phone. Now a little bird is asking me to check up on you because she’s worried about you. And so am I.”

She nodded and looked up the file, “come with me, we can take you through. He had a cardiac arrest during the CT. He’s doing okay as he can. Stable now. They’ve done some more tests and now waiting on results. He’s been in and out since they brought him up here but he’s doing as good as we can hope right now.” She assured her.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Noah gave a heavy sigh and frowned a bit "I dunno man, I'm just in a funk. I'm trying to keep myself together. I got an appointment with my therapist, I'm exhausted all the time for some reason." He explained truthfully to him.

Max nodded and sighed heavily as she made her way to the room he was in. She took a deep breath as she got in seeing him hooked up to even more wires. She shook her head some and sat beside him.

 

[decadent-rider]

He frowned a little and watched her, flexing his fingers to reach for her hand. “Chest hurts.” He mumbled, already bruised from the efforts to save him. “Scared.” He managed to tell her frowning still.

He sighed and frowned. “When was the last time you took a break from work longer than three days?” He asked him frowning. “I’m not talking bad omens I’m talking writing and producing for other people as well. I’m asking cause we got a big ass festival stint coming up and no one wants to see you killing yourself for it.” He told him.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max gave a small nod and sighed heavily "I know baby, its gonna be okay. We're gonna get through this together." She said quietly before kissing his cheek gently letting a few tears fall "We'll get through it."

Noah sighed some as he started to think "I guess Max and Will's wedding was the last time I took time off, and that was for a day." He murmured running a hand over his face "I just don't want to let anyone down."

 

[decadent-rider]

He frowned and shook his head “Noah you’re burnt out.” He told him frowning. “You’ve been working too hard for too long in a row. We got studio time tomorrow, we can talk to Matt and he can talk to the label…. If you want me to help you talk to him I can do that.” He told him genuinely.

He frowned and just squeezed her hand as much as he could, trying to stay awake for hee but couldn’t manage and was out again after a couple minutes.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Noah gave a heavy sigh as he thought about it for a minute "Yeah.....I think that would be best. I don't want to get bad again." He explained quietly

Max sighed heavily calling his mom to update her over everything that had just happened.

 

[decadent-rider]

He spoke with him a little longer and sighed quietly texting Carmen the outcome once Noah had hung up

She got home hours later, walking inside and went to set her bags in the lounge, saying hi to the cat and headed up to check on Noah, walking over and just sitting down in his lap, hugging him tightly. “I love you. Do I tell you that enough?” She asked him frowning as she pulled back to look at him, cupping his cheeks.

Austin was the next one to call her and head up to see them, taking a seat in the room and sighed quietly. “Shit. How are you coping?” He asked max frowning. They weren’t close by any means but Will was still a friend and a colleague and neither of them deserved this shit.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Noah wrapped his arms around her and nodded "Yes of course you do. Baby none of this is because of you, you're the one keeping me grounded." He said softly before kissing her gently "I was thinking....maybe we take a getaway.

Max looked over at Austin and frowned deeply "I'm uh....I'm doing everything I can to stay put together." She admitted quietly wiping her eyes as tears started to fall.

 

[decadent-rider]

She smiled a little and nodded "I know it's not. I get that but I just wanna make sure you know that I love you.... And I don't know what I would do without you." She murmured, "It might be real fuckin' selfish but if that's the case then so be it." She murmured, "A getaway sounds nice. Where are you thinking?" She asked him, pulling his hood off his head so she could run her fingers through his hair.

He nodded and sighed a little "I uh, I just came by to let you know that he can take as much time as he needs.... but we're gonna be getting a replacement for him for while he's recovering." He told her fornwing "It sounds worse than it is but ... we all got bills to pay and we can't just stop working." He told her sighing a little "But once he's doing good we want him to come back." He told her.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Noah gave a small smile and kissed her lovingly just holding her close to him "Maybe Big Bear? Somewhere just the two of us." He murmured as he held her to him.

Max frowned deeply as she looked at him amd gave a small nod "Oh....um alright..." she said quietly not sure what else to say about it all "I'll let him know later once he is more stable."

 

[decadent-rider]

He frowned and sighed a little "Oh god yeah, don't... he doesn't need to think about any of this right now but I just didn't want either of you to see something or hear about it through magazines or twitter or something." He told her

She nodded "Big Bear could be nice... What about Yosemite?" She suggested, "Not that I'm complaining about us having a little holiday.... but I thought you had a festival stint coming up?" She asked him, "Also... what do you want for dinner?" She asked him

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max gave a small nod and sighed heavily "Yeah just make a post with him about the partial departure due to health issues. I don't want to go into details, but that should be fine." She murmured quietly

Noah nodded and sighed heavily "Yeah I was thinking we take off this weekend...before the tour." He said quietly giving a small shrug "I dunno, I just want to get away fast."

 

[decadent-rider]

He nodded and stayed a little longer before leaving them to it again when Will started waking up, looking over at her confused, just flexing his fingers and trying to reach for her "What... I don't know." He frowned, trying to sit up and getting more confused when he could hardly move. "Babe?" He mumbled

She frowned and just pulled back a little to look at him better "I have a client on Saturday morning but I'll be done by 12. I can come home shower and we can be out of here by 2.... But you were meant to be leaving for the festivals on Sunday.... You cancelling?" She asked him,

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max frowned as she got the bed lifting so he was sitting a bit "Whats wrong babe? Talk to me." She said quietly kissing his hand gently.

Noah frowned deeply and sighed heavily "Sunday? Did they really say Sunday?" He asked quietly having not really paid attention when they told him about the Europe dates "Okay, we do this tour, then we're going on a month long trip."

 

[decadent-rider]

She frowned and shook her head. “Noah… look at me. I don’t think you are well enough to do four weeks of back to back shows and travelling.” She told him seriously, “Nick said you’re gonna talk to Matt tomorrow… he Mmmm means talk to Matt about cancelling the festivals.” She pointed out, starting to worry more.

He frowned and just watched her. “Think im…. Don’t know.” He frowned. “Head hurts…. Where are we?” He asked her just feeling confused and a little out of it still, not remembering much of the past couple days. “We were home… and Mayas walking.” He frowned. “Where is she?”

 

[Forever6A7X]

Noah frowned deeply and gave a heavy sigh "But....everyone will be pissed." He said quietly not wanting to upset the label or other bands who were on the tour.

Max frowned deeply as she slowly pressed the call button "You fell at the studio.....they brought you here to run some tests. You had a small stroke baby." She explained quietly

 

[decadent-rider]

She shook her head. “I don’t care. I care about your health. Physical and mental. And if you are not strong enough to do this tour then you should stay home.” She told him seriously. “You can use me as an excuse if you need to but I’m not letting you get sick for that.” She told him quietly,

He frowned and watched her a little, squeezing her fingers. “But I don’t…. I don’t remember.” He rambled still, “I need…. Bucket.” He told her, frowning, feeling like he was going to be sick at any minute.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Noah gave a small sigh but nodded and kissed her gently "I love you, I'll take care of myself okay? I will get off the tour." He murmured quietly nuzzling his face into her chest some.

Max frowned deeply and got him a trash can before pressing the call button again. She looked over at the nurse who came in "He woke up and doesn't remember anything. All he remembers is up to when we got back to our home. Is that normal?"

 

[decadent-rider]

She frowned at her and nodded. “You’re lucky he’s alive let alone remembering everything that’s happened the last couple days. Enjoy what bit you got.” She muttered, checking him over and left them to it again

Will frowned a little and just lay back, watching her once the nausea had passed. “You told me…. To go to the doctors…. M’sorry.” He mumbled.

She nodded and ran her fingers through his hair smiling a little. “It’s getting long again… talk to Matt tomorrow. And when you have a definite answer on what is happening then you call me and I can book a holiday for us from there.” She promised him. “I love you.” She murmured to him
