*he chuckles softly* yeah.. *he falls over in his seat with a soft ‘oof’*
Max? Max, talk to me, buddy. Are you still awake? *Carlos had to keep his eyes on the road, but he kept glancing at the rear-view mirror hoping to see Max sit up again.*
*he mumbled something about being tired, curling up into a little ball of white and red*
Max? Max! Stay awake! We’re almost there! *Carlos rounded a corner and there it was – the hospital*
*no response, good thing the hospitals right there, right?-*
*It was a blur for Carlos from there. He didn’t remember driving up to the emergency portal. Just that Max was taken out of the car. He didn’t remember if he parked his car or if a valet did it for him. But hours later he was in post-op, sitting with Max and waiting for him to wake up.*
