its been two weeks since Tony attacked.

Will heaves a sigh sitting in his and Liams truck. he looks out the windshield. its raining and cold outside. the skys dark gray, overcast, and little drips of icey water are steadily leaking from the thick clouds above. he lets out a slow breath, mentally steeling himself, as he climbs out of the truck. he heads over towards the group of people he'd been avoiding, slowly. he doesn't want to be here. why were they making him be here?

"hey, you okay?" Sam asks softly, walking over to him. Will nods slightly, but its a lie. he feels numb. he doesn't want to be here for this.

"don't worry, everythings going to be fine." Orion assures gently, patting Wills shoulder. Will looks over at him with a sigh.

"yeah, I guess so." Will mutters.

"where's Liam?" Rafael asks, looking over.

"he's on his way. y'know we had to ride separate." Will mutters. Rafael nods, moving when Jack pushes him out of the way to hug Will reassuringly.

"he always has to make sure your safe, even with Tony dead." Jack murmurs, smiling slightly. Will pushes away from him, wrapping his arms tightly around himself.

"do I really need to be here for this?" Will ask.

"it'll give you some closure." Orion says.

"I don't want closure." Will says.

"no, but you need it." Orion soothes.

"everyone needs closure Will. Sam went to Nathans funeral." Michael says softly.

"Nathans funeral was fucking different." Will snaps. Jack pulls him back into another hug, holding him gently.

"I know its hard and you don't want to be here, but Will, we're here for you." Jack soothes softly. Will shakes his head.

"I want to go home." Will mutters, turning back towards the truck. he pauses as a black hearse pulls up. Will freezes, blood running cold. he stares as they pull the casket out. Orion, Rafael, Jack, Marco, Sam, and Michael grab hold of the casket and start bringing it towards him. Will feels a rush of confusion. why are they carrying Tonys casket?

"come on Will." Noah says gently, leading WIll over towards the hole in the ground. "they'll make sure Liam gets over here safe and sound." Noah says softly. Will feels as though he's physically stopped breathing. its not Tonys funeral, its Liams. its his husbands funeral. Will stumbles, Noah quickly catching him, as he watches them carry his husband to his final resting place.

"no..." Will trails, shoving away from Noah. he runs at the casket, unwilling to believe his husband is dead. Orion turns, once setting the casket down, and grabs hold of Will gently.

"come on. you can't lay all over the casket again Will. they already gave you an extra day with him. they can't give you anymore. its time for you to let him go." Rafael says softly.

"no! I can't! thats my husband! you let me go! he's not dead I know he isn't! Liam! LIAM! Liam don't do this to me!" Will shouts, sobbing as he tries to shove his way away from them.

"Will he's gone. he bled out in surgery. he's gone." Sam says softly.

"NO HE'S NOT STOP SAYING THAT!" Will shouts. "HE'S NOT DEAD THATS NOT HIM! LIAM! LIAM WHERE ARE YOU?!" Will shouts, struggling with Orion.

"he's gone Will." Jack says as firmly as he can.

"he can't be! he promised me! he can't be gone! let me go!" Will screams as they drag him away from the casket. "Liam! Liam!! baby answer me!" Will screams. Rafael grabs his face, forcing him to look at him.

"he's gone Will. knock it off." Rafael says firmly. Will looks at him tearfully, before he breaks down into sobs, collapsing against Orion. the bigger man holds him tighter.

"we know Will. we know." Orion sighs softly. he's struggling to hold back tears himself, but they have to stay strong for Will. the moment one of them breaks down, Will is going to lose his mind worse. the man sobs again Orion as they start throwing dirt onto the casket.

"I don't want to say goodbye, I'm not ready to say goodbye! he's all I have!" Will screams, sobbing against Orion. his eyes suddenly feel heavy, he can't hold them open anymore and he doesn't want to. he just wants to sob. he closes his eyes and lets himself sob against Orion.

Will jerks awake, looking around. his hearts pounding, chest heaving, and his body hurts. he looks around quickly.

"the hospital?" Will mutters, looking around. Jack is asleep in a chair beside him. Noah is laying in a hospital bed across the room, Marco by his side. Will tenses nervously, turning his head slowly, to look beside him. to his utter relief, Liam is laying in a hospital bed with Orion by his side. "Liam...?" Will asks shakily. Jack shifts beside him, gently grabbing Wills hand.

"shhhhh. don't go waking up the whole room." Jack teases gently, sitting up. he looks exhausted. "its okay. they're still asleep." Jack murmurs softly. Will looks at him confused, tears in his eyes.

"whats-" Will tries.

"we're still in the hospital. Tony is dead. its okay. you don't remember waking up earlier?" Jack asks softly.

"no...?" Will says hesitantly. Jack smiles a little.

"Liams not dead. its okay. he's alright. you reacted pretty badly to one of the medicines they gave you. this is the second time you've woken up. its okay. yes you're awake, Liam is okay. I promise." Jack soothes gently. Wills lip quivers and he turns back to Liam tearfully.

"but... I-I saw-" Will starts.

"I know. its okay. its part of the side effects of the medicine. its okay." Jack assures, gently. he squeezes Will gently.

"I wanna talk to Liam." Will says.

"he's still asleep Will. I know you're worried about him, but he's okay I promise. he's alright. its okay." Jack soothes.

"no. I wanna talk to Liam." Will mutters, wincing and trying to get up from the bed, Jack stops him immediately.

"I know you're worried Will, but you need to let him sleep a little longer okay? when he wakes up, I promise I'll wake you." Jack says softly. Will nods slightly, laying back on the bed.

"okay..." Will trails slightly. Jack smiles at him, patting his hand. Will winces and reaches to rub his stomach.

"don't rub your stitches Will. he stabbed you quite a few times." Jack soothes gently, grabbing Wills other hand with his free one gently. WIll pulls his hand back away from Jack.

"don't." Will mutters. he looks down at his hand, he didn't want Jack touching his wedding ring, and freezes. where is his ring? "where's my ring?" Will asks quickly.

"hold on, hold on, don't panic. I gave yours and Liams to Raffie so they wouldn't be lost in surgery. I'll go get them stay right here." Jack assures gently, getting up. he heads out of the room. Will waits for him to leave and carefully gets up. he pulls the wires off him. he doesn't need the heart monitor or the stupid pain meds. he certainly doesn't need the IV. he pulls it all out and tosses the wires on the bed, ignoring the heart monitor going off. he shakily gets up off the bed and stumbles towards Liams bed. he carefully avoids Orion, who is sound asleep in his chair. Will reaches out and grabs his husbands hand gently.

"Liam...?" Will ask softly. Liam winces and shifts, he squeezes Wills hand.

"I hate that name." he mutters. Will smiles in relief.

"sorry Hide. I had to wake you up, just wanted to know you were okay." Will mumbles.

"s'lright." Ironhide assures gently, shakily lifting the hand holding wills to his bruised lips and kissing it gently. "glad t' know you're good." Ironhide mumbles softly. Will leans over him and kisses his head gently, smiling at him.

"I'm glad you're alive, I thought-" Will starts.

"Will! what are you doing?" Jack asks, rushing over to him.

"don't you fuckin' dare yell at my husband, I will beat your ass the moment I can get up." Ironhide growls.

"I told you not to get up yet." Jack frowns.

"I don't care Wheeljack. I told you I wanted to see him." Will mumbles.

"come on, you have to get back in bed now. the nurses are coming to hook you back up." Jack murmurs softly.

"no." Will mutters.

"baby, go lay back down. s'okay." Ironhide assures squeezing his hand gently. "I'm okay. I promise." Ironhide murmurs softly. Will looks unsure. "go. don't argue with me." Ironhide says firmly. Will nods slightly and heads for his bed. Jack helps him back to his bed carefully. the nurses hook him back up and give him a firm warning to not get back up.

Will lays quietly. Jack holds Wills wedding ring out to him gently. Will takes it immediately and puts it back on carefully. Jack hands him Liams ring as well.

"here's his, okay? he's already asleep again, so you hold onto his okay?" Jack asks. Will nods slightly, clutching the ring tightly in his hand. "just relax okay? everything is going to be alright, I promise." Jack murmurs.

"what about 'Raj and Noah?" Will mumbles.

"Noah is okay. he got stabbed once in the stomach. he's okay. he needed three stitches but he's okay. he was worried about you and Liam, but they're okay I promise." Jack assures. Will nods slightly, looking down at Ironhides ring in his hand. he lays back quietly and winces.

"everyones okay?" Will mumbles.

"everyone is okay. just get some rest Will. everything is okay." Jack soothes. "when you wake back up Raffie will probably be here with you okay? Michael and Sam are okay, but they're pretty shaken up and I'm gonna go sit with them Prowl and Lucky." Jack murmurs.

"okay." Will mumbles. he finally lets his eyes shut and falls back to sleep. this would be a long road to recovery, but at least everyone is okay.
