Taj watched with almost as much horror as Casper appeared to be in, just from seeing his lover in such pain and riddled with such confusion. He always seemed so strong to him even if he was ever clueless about things and this was the first time, he'd seem him, so very...not. Sure he'd seen him upset and shaken by what happened with Andy but this was just different. Casper had the will to keep going and helping back then. Taj got up in enough energy motivated by the need to be by Casper's side and pulled himself to the edge of the bed, threw down some blankets and pillows and let himself fall clean off onto them. The landing was nauseating. He even made that gulping dry heave gagging, expanding his cheeks looking like he was about to just throw up from it. But, he even sucked that up rather quickly and drudged himself up to Casper's side and laid a hand on his leg. "Baby?" He said with wide curious eyes trying to softly gain his attention. "It's okay baby. We're fine now. Everything's fine now. We're safe. They're friends. He saved you. And you found me again." He smiled softly not sure Casper was all there yet. "You'll always find me." This one was more of a whisper, his own energy giving out and he laid his head down Casper's leg right where he was, not quite close enough to embrace him and just couldn't seem to pull himself any closer for the pain. "You found me." He repeated one last time closing his eyes, his breathing pattern not quite right, an upped pace for all the effort and hurt he put himself through to get to him.
