Hearths Warming Grief.

by BronyNathan


The glow of the hearts fire.

Fluttershy felt uncomfortable with all the treatments the hospital had her do. She needed blood tests every three hours, as well as temperature checks, therapy, and was on a steady stream of anticoagulants.
Woodwind had never left her side, though, which made the endeavor a little more bearable. She had asked that Woodwind do the physical therapy with her, which would make her feel comfortable that someone she trusted with her life would be doing the invasive exercises. The doctors agreed, and now everyday from two to four, they were able to spend time alone.
That made Fluttershy ease up a little bit.
The Doctors had finished their routine tests when Woodwind stepped in. He carried a large bowl of wet water in his mouth.
"Ish it time fo' ou' thewapy shsehion?" He mumbled, placing the bowl on the floor.
"We were just leaving." one of the nurses said as she put a bandage over her new Iv.
They closed the curtain and left them alone.
Fluttershy stumbled off the bed and headed for the foam mat on the floor where Woodwind was sitting, soaking some towels in the steaming water.
"You ready?" he asked as Fluttershy took a slow, shaky seat in front of him.
"I guess so.." she said, breathing heavily from the walk over.
"Alright, sweetie. I need you to lay your head in my lap."
She obeyed, falling down on her back, wresting her head on his thigh.
He spread her rigid left wing out.
She winced in pain. He began to stretch it in and out, then up and down. He placed one of the soaking towels over it to relax the muscle.
"Alright, Fluttershy, just keep holding that wing out."
"So.." She began to say as she winced when he began working on the other wing.
"How are the twins doing?" She asked, still wincing.
"Oh they're fine. They're at their Aunti Pinkies house." He said placing a towel on the other wing. "That ponies pretty much like a child herself." he continued laughing.
He decided to give her a break. She stared up at him with her bright blue eyes and smiled. he leaned over, kissing her down her neck.
"I never thought i'd be able to do this ever again." He admitted to her.
She grabbed his head and brought it back up to hers, and kissed his lips and held him their.
She let her lips fall off his and began to blush.
"I never thought i'd be able to do THAT again."
He looked back to the door, then the clock. "When is your next checkup?" He asked her smiling.
"Hmm, not for another two hours i guess. Why?" She asked smiling.
Woodwind pulled the blanket off the bed and wrapped them in it, rolling them so she was on top of him.
"Oh, no reason." he laughed mischievously.
They kissed and let the whole world melt away around them.
Nothing was there now but their love.
