Hanna almost ran into the doors, carrying the non-responsive Maka in his arms. He was worried sick, "Could somebody help us?" He ran up to the front desk to be confronted with two nurses.
The one on the left looked very stern and experienced, her glasses low on her nose, and her gray hair in a bun. The other, to the right, looked rather bubbly, and sported a long blonde ponytail and a worried face over the girl in Hanna's arms.
The eldest spoke first, "What seems to be the problem, sir?"
Hanna was so worried, his speech was impacted, "Sh-she was in a fight. Lost a lot of blood. I tried healing her up with m-magic but it couldn't restore the blood she lost, and she's out cold."
"Oh goodness!" The younger exclaimed, rushing to his side, "We have to get her in a bed right away." The eldest followed the two, putting Maka down and trying their best to change her into fresh clothing on the hospital bed. Hanna looked away as they changed her, as a gentleman.
"We can figure out her blood type from her file," the eldest nurse walked away with the blood-soaked clothing. She returned with blood bags and an IV hookup, setting it up with a slow blood flow into Maka's system, "You can check in whenever you want. Flora will be your night nurse here." She pointed to the blonde and walked away.
Hanna looked to Flora, "Ca-can I stay with her?"
Flora nodded kindly, "You did a great job on her wounds. I'll get you a chair..."

Maka opened her eyes slowly, trying to sit up but just not being able to feel most of herself. The black blood didn't just mess with her head, it messed with her body too. Unable to feel pain, she'd kept fighting even when she should have stopped. Thanks to her stupidity Soul had to hurt her to get her to stop. She sighed lightly and winced at the pain in her abdomen, arms, and legs. Soul really had done a number on her. Turning her head slightly she looked around the room. Infirmary she was guessing. Looking down at her arm she flinched at the IV drip.

Hanna smiled at Maka opening her eyes. Flora had gone to get a new bedpan for Maka and had told him that she would do this every so often out of feigned strength, but she wouldn't stay awake for too long until her body fully recovered. He rubbed his eyes... it had been about an hour now.
Flora returned to Hanna's side and saw Maka, "Hey there." She smiled at the girl, "You should probably go back to sleep, little lady. You gotta conserve your strength."

Maka turned her head to look at the blonde, she reminded her a bit of Marie. Maka shook her head and sat up slowly.
"I'm fine really," she said as she winced.
She looked at Hanna and smiled lightly. She really didn't like anything that dealed with hospitals. Having Hanna there just made everything a bit better than being there by herself. Swinging her legs out from the bed she attempted to get out. Her legs colapsing under her as she stood up.

Hanna and Flora rushed to catch her and put her back in bed, "You see what I mean, little darlin? You need your rest to get better! Your little guy friend here is worried sick about you!"
Hanna blushed, sitting back down in his chair. He didn't want to say anything, remembering that Maka wasn't all too happy with either him or Soul. But it was great to see her smile at him.

"I really don't need rest," Maka said, "I'll be fine really."
She sat back in the bed and made a face at the thought of staying here. She really wanted to pull the IV out of her arm, it made her feel sick having it push stuff into her body.

"M-maka," Hanna pulled his chair closer, "Just listen to her, okay?" His eyes were bloodshot from crying, and he reached out to place his hand atop hers gently, if only for a second, "We just want you to be okay, and you need a lot of blood in you, and rest, to recover."

Maka looked at Hanna and sighed, "Fine."
She was getting tired anyways. Closing her eyes she drifted off again, wondering where Soul was. Probably staying away from this place. One thing they could both agree on was that nothing good came from hospitals.

Hanna stroked his fingers over Maka's hand.
"You really love her don'tcha?" Flora sat beside Hanna. There weren't any other patients here overnight, so she would help him take care of Maka.
The redhead nodded, tearing up again as he watched the blood slowly pump into Maka. He wanted to say something, but he just couldn't.
"It's okay. Could you tell me how you found her, or is that too hard?" Flora looked over at Hanna with a little concern, placing a gentle hand on his back. When he shook his head, she nodded, "Alright. You don't have to say anything you don't want to, kiddo."
A few hours passed. There was only a few inches of blood left in the second bag, and Flora went to get the final one. Hanna hadn't been able to rest at all himself, and his bloodshot eyes with bags beneath them were a testament to that. He was determined to stay awake by Maka's side until she was alright again.

Maka jumped upright looking around the room, just a dream. Nightmare really, one that she hated more than anything. Looking down at her hand she noticed Hanna's was on top of it. She looked over at the boy and shook her head.
"Go sleep Hanna," she said, "I'll be fine really."
She was sweating slightly from the nightmare, but that thing usually only came around once.

"You don't look fine," Hanna said, rubbing his thumb across the top of her hand, "What happened?" Flora had left the room for the final blood bag while this happened, and he was left alone with Maka.

"It was nothing," she said, "Just a bad dream."
Looking around she noticed the blood bag was almost empty. She went to pull the needle out of her arm thinking that it ment she was done with the transfussions.

Flora walked back in, "You still got one more bag, honey. Leave it in."
Hanna grabbed Maka's hand, "I'm not sleeping till you're okay. What kinda dream has you sweating like that?" He was hoping she wouldn't keep secrets from him. If she did, that just reassured his fear that she was angry at him.

"It's nothing Hanna," Maka muttered taking her hand away from the IV.
She wanted out of here, it reminded her too much of visiting Soul like Hanna was. Also reminded her of how she wasn't able to move for three days thanks to Medusa's older sister. She closed her eyes and sighed, wanting out of this place as soon as possible.

Yep. There it was. That fear that she was angry with him. Why would she keep something like that a secret from him, when all he did was care about her so much that he'd sacrifice sleep and sanity to make sure she's okay? He sunk back in his chair and removed his hand from hers, still staying awake to watch her. Flora could feel the tension in the room and rubbed Hanna's back, "It's gonna be okay, kiddo. She'll be fine."
Hanna shook his head and drew his knees to his stomach, eyes glued on Maka.
