The cold air rushing in his nose began to awaken Noah. His lashes shook, and he stirred in his bed. When he opened his eyes, he stared at the white ceiling of a ward. After looking around, it seemed to be an ICU ward instead.
He then stared at the monitor and saw a reading of himself. It seemed that his body temperature was still so high.
Actually, he could feel it as well. The heat was very uncomfortable unlike when it was from getting too close against Luca. Thinking about Luca, Noah continued to look around, hoping to see a strand of Luca's hair or a glimpse of his shadow.
His vision was tunneling from the heat, and he was bothered by the ice-cold cuffs on his wrists. He could also feel the scratches in his body, but he didn't mind those for now. He moved his arm weakly to make the cuffs clink against the metal railing of the rolling bed.
"Luca… Caliga… anyone…?"
