The sting was tolerable, though his face would cringe from the pain every so often. The bottle of drink certainly helped as well. As did her gentle touch when stitching up his wound. He was feeling more and more light headed but force himself to stay conscious. However, when her soothing and melodic voice started to fill the silent air, he found his eyes closing, threatening to lull him to a slumber. He opened them again, trying to remain awake. But with every note she sang, his eyes closed again.
He recognized most of the words from what she had taught him of her language, but it was not the words he was focusing on so much as he voice and the comfort it offered. It was the last thing he heard before he admitted defeat and did not open his eyes, letting the darkness consume him. Unknowing of what happened to the bottle he had been clutching or in what position he had let himself be unconscious in. His thoughts were only of her, and how despite everything between them, she was still with him, here to help him, to heal him. It did not cause him to feel guilt, but rather, realization. Realization that letting her go was going to be one of the most difficult things he ever did.

Her voice faltered when she heard something hit the ground, and Magda glanced over just in time to tilt the bottle back up and keep most of it inside the glass. Not knowing how deep he was under, she continued to hum the song rather then sing it. When she was finished, Magda put two pillows on either side of him, and then dressed so she could run out. The best part of the gadjo world were the stores. There she used his coin to buy honey. Once back, she heated it just enough so that it would seep into the open skin. This would help it stop the bleeding, fight infection, and keep the skin from moving when he awakened.
Then Magda sat on the floor by the bed, and watched his face as she sleep. She knew one danger of such an injury was infection, and the other was her having found him too late. Reaching her hand up, Magda brushed his hair back. Odd how frightened she was of loosening him right now, even as she had all accepted the lost already. Leaning up so that her lips could brush his, Magda gave him a light kiss, before settling back where she was. Erik was on his belly, near the edge of the bed, while she sat on the floor with her head resting on the bed so she could watch him and make sure that he never stopped breathing. She loved him. Knew it with every fiber of herself. Just as she knew that it would not stop him from walking away from her. Magda lost track of time as she drifted asleep there, with her one hand clutching his.

Erik was unsure how long he had been sleeping for, or even at which point he had fallen unconscious. But when he slowly opened his eyes, he could see light seeping through the curtained window. He felt groggy and, in pain. It was an instant reminder of the events that occurred last night -- or technically very early this morning. The throbbing was intense, so he made no attempt to move right away. He also noticed Magda, on the floor, resting her head on the bed with her hand holding his. Why was she on the floor and he on the bed? He looked at her, taking in her beauty and the thoughts that filled his mind.
It were moments like this where he hated himself. Where he could quite confidently say that he was a monster. That Shaw had turned him into a monster. For if he was a better man, he would be able to abandon this mission and offer her a life she deserves, with their child. The knowledge that he could not, and had made that decision for them both, made him all the more aware of how undeserving he was of her. How she deserved far better. He was unsure how long he had been watching her, before he attempted to move. He attempted to raise his upper body -- trying not to wake her -- but the injury caused a shooting and severe pain to rush through him. He bit back any sound that would indicate this, and just closed his eyes tightly as he balanced his weight on his elbow, on the side that was not injured. Getting started for the day was going to be a mission all on its own.

Magda felt the bed shift slightly, and as she was not deeply asleep she opened her eyes to see Erik attempting to escape their bed. Just a few days ago she had teased and tempted him to stay, but then he would not. Not for her. Reaching up she wrapped her arms around his chest and used gentle force to make him lie back down. "Not so soon, the honey must dry before you move or it will reopen it." Instant, she would not budge until he was resting on the mattress again.
The honey that was on the inside would take a few more hours to heal, then moving would be sore but the risk of opening it was less. "I should bandage it too, or your stubbornness will only cause you more harm." It was as close to a tease as she could get right now. Spoken with a honest voice, but lighter too. She was trying to make sure it wasn't hard for him to stay. Yet she knew the words to make sure he stayed, "You know that you need your strength, or your powers are harder to control. You will be no good out there weak, and unable to move."
