“ cough drops maybe?”

“Alright!” Raf slipped out of bed, stretching his leg and arms. He hadn’t stretched in a while and his muscles felt like jello. His chest was still sore, but he was doing better. Raf bounded into the kitchen, looking through the cabinets for cough drops. He found a small baggie and waddled back to the bedroom. He fished a cough drop out of the bag and gave it to Eyros. “Here. Try this.”

Eyros put one in his mouth and let it sit in his cheek

Raf sat and watched Eyros patiently like an entranced child. "Let me know if it works. I'm curious. I've never had one of these before."

“ they soothe soreness in throats.” he said softly, his voice sounding a bit smoother

Raf sat up straight, amazed. "It sounds like it helped your hoarse voice!" He gave Eyros a big hug. "Would you like to do anything, or do you want to lie around?"

“Laying around sounds nice. “ he said softly

Raf huffed. This werewolf had tons of energy after being stuck in a hospital bed for hours. "Fine— we can lay around, but I might go stretch my legs. I feel like I've been stuffed in a box, don't you?" He was basically bouncing up and down.

“ We can go for a run if you like.”

Raf's face lit up. "Yes, I would like that! I would actually love that! I just hope no more trouble finds us. I could use a good break." He probably shouldn't have said that. He just jinxed the two.

Eyros knocked on their wood door before they left. He took raf out to the woods and shifted

Raf followed Eyros outside, taking in the fresh air. He then shifted and ran across the felid at wind breaking speeds. One lap after another after another after another— you get it. It was like when a puppy got the zoomies and they booked it throughout the house, making a mess.

Eyros went for a bit, noticing his vision start to blur and his steps become ill placed
Then the ground rushes to meet his nose, his vision blacking out seconds before

Raf stopped, looking back at Eyros. He frantically ran over to his mate, licking Euros’ face to keep him awake and going. He put his back under Eyros’ head, trying to give the boy some support.

Eyros was weak, something was seriously wrong

Raf started whining. He slipped out from under Eyros, letting the boy fall gently. He shifted back, picking up the large hound and carrying him back to the dorm. He laid him in bed, stroking him gently. “What’s wrong, Eyros? Why is your body failing you?”

Eyros just kept letting out whimpers.
And there it was, blood spouting from his mouth. He tore something in his throat

Raf physically screamed. He started to panic. Who do I call? Who do I go to? The medical wing? Maybe.. that sounds like a great option.” He opened Eyros’ mouth slightly, only to see blood guzzle up. “Shit! Alright, come on! You and I are going to get help.” The calm approach was mainly for Raf’s sake.

Eyros whined and pulled his ears back, knowing his father would be here in an instant

Raf scooped up Eyros, the wolf being a bit too heavy for him. He cradled Eyros’ head so he wouldn’t choke on his own blood. Raf slowly exited the dorm room, checking the halls carefully before proceeding to the medical wing. “It’ll be okay, Eyros. I promise you. I won’t let anything happen to you, sweetheart.”

Eyros’s father was running the halls past them. A small broken hourglass in his hand, the black sand different from the white usually in them.
Lucifer didn't even notice them

(The image in my head is just a tiny friend running around while a boy is holding a giant wolf)

Raf cradled Eyros, watching this whole fiasco. “Well— that can’t be good. I thought you knock on the wood, Eyros!” He sighed, trying be lighthearted for his anxiety. Raf’s entire body was shaking as he made his way into the medical wing. He started to doubt they could do anything for Eyros. After all, a lot of blood was dripping from his throat.

Eyros had stopped whining at this point, his chest barely moving.

Lucifer was crying as he cradled the broken hourglass. Looking at the name engraved on the wood. ‘eyros’

Raf looked down at Eyros and started to whine. Little tears started to drip onto the wolf’s fur. “You can’t die bitch! You’re not allowed to die!” The werewolf started to curse up a storm. He gently placed Eyros down on the ground, tears coming faster. “You can’t leave me here alone!” Raf didn’t know what to do. His entire body was shaking roughly as he started to preform CPR on the dying wolf. “I thought you couldn’t die!” He relized CPR would be pointless. The blood blocked everything. Raf opened Eyros’ mouth to see what could have torn. Possibly to see what was killing his mate. “If you’re going— then I’m going too.”

Lucifer walked to them “ that's impossible little one..” he said softly
