Melissa nodded a little, pushing up a smile. "Well, whatever you do will be greatly appreciated."

Lucas nodded as well and hugged Melissa with one arm. "I'll try my best to do everything I can for you…"

Melissa kept up her tired smile, slowly stroking the top of his head. "As long as you don't stress yourself out, right?"

"Mhmm…" Lucas tried to get himself to relax at Melissa's touch. "Is there anything in particular you want for your birthday?"

"Nope." Melissa replied simply, starting to zone out for a minute. "I… um, you don't have to get me anything."

"But I wanna get you something… you got me a puppy for my birthday, Mel. I can't just get you nothing. You're important to me."

"But I don't want anythinggg…" Melissa insisted, giving him a slight pout. "I just want you home. I want you not to have constant nightmares, and to be happy. That's really all I want."

Lucas smiled weakly and hugged Melissa a little tighter with his good arm. "Well, I can try my best, but can you give me a ballpark idea for a physical gift of some kind?"

Melissa sighed softly, looking up at the ceiling in thought. "Well… flowers are always nice…" She whispered, glancing over to him. "I'm really bad at gift ideas. Sorry…" She laughed weakly, kissing his forehead.

"Well, if you think of anything, let me know… I don't know if I'll be allowed to have my phone on me or not." Lucas sighed.

"I don't think so… but I can always tell you when I come to visit. Though I'm not sure when you plan to go get me a present." Melissa hummed softly, looking over to him.

Lucas shrugged. "As soon as I'm able, I guess… if I'm allowed my phone, then I'll try to talk to you as much as I can."

Melissa gave him a soft kiss, curling up. "I'll do my best to do the same. I want to get to talk to you whenever I'm given the chance."

Lucas nodded a bit. "Did the doctor say anything about that?" He asked. "I wanna be able to talk to you…"

"I didn't think to ask. It kinda slipped my mind." She admitted, sighing softly. "Though my assumption is that you wouldn't be able to."

"Yeah…" Lucas sighed a bit as well. "We'll have to look into it. I don't know if I can handle it without being able to talk to you…"

Melissa gave him a soft look, burying her face into his shoulder. "You could write me letters… write down everything you want to tell me in a journal or something…"

"I guess so… maybe I can give you little doodles in the letters as well." Lucas laughed weakly, hiding his face again as well.

"I'd like that… it'd feel more like you, if there was." Melissa whispered, smiling weakly. "I know it's not the same, but it's close."

Lucas nodded a bit and sighed again. "I'm really gonna miss you, Mel… even with all the visits, I'm gonna miss you."

"I'm gonna miss you too… life is gonna be so weird without you. Everything will be the same, but missing one thing." Melissa mumbled, biting into her lip at the thought. He was really going— there wasn't even an exact time he'd be back.

"Yeah…" Lucas held as tightly to Melissa as he could. "I love you, Mel… I'll try to be out as soon as I can…"

Melissa sucked in a deep breath, trying to hold back the tears she felt coming on. So what if she was being a little over-dramatic with the whole thing? "I love you too… so, so much…"

(Should we have them take him away soon?)
Lucas smiled weakly and kissed Melissa's cheek, a couple fresh tears rolling down his pale cheeks.

(Probably… eheh. In the next two or three posts?)
Melissa swallowed the lump in her throat, holding his face in her hands. She gently ran her thumbs over his cheeks, attempting to rub his tears away. "You gonna be alright?"

(Probably lol)
"Well… I can't say for sure, Mel… but I'm gonna try my best." Lucas closed his eyes and leaned into Melissa's touch.

(:P)
Melissa sighed weakly, and nodded. She kissed his forehead, hearing voices down the hall. She assumed that meant it was time- she could feel her stomach turn at the thought.

Lucas looked up at the voices and paled, his heart stopping. "No, no, no, no, no…" He whispered, starting to slip off of the bed so that he could try to retreat.

Melissa quickly rolled over, grabbing onto his waist. "Lu, please…" She whispered weakly, burying her face in his back. "Please don't… Please…"

"I c-can't do this, please!" Lucas started breathing more quickly, shaking violently. "I-I don't wanna go…"
