Chapter 4 – First Steps Always Has Problems
Viggo smiled as he looked down at Orlando, whom had
fallen asleep on the couch, his head resting on Viggo’s lap as he snored
softly.
“He’s exhausted” Craig said as he got up and
covered
with the blanket that had fallen from the couch sometime during the movie. “How
late do you need to be on the set tomorrow?”
“About ten. Peter said he’s going to do the Edoras
scenes first and then a few scenes with me and Liv. He’s postponing the scenes
with
until we’re one hundred percent sure that his ankle can handle the stress. They
don’t want him getting hurt again, although it’s a bit hard with
Craig chuckled. “He needs to rest” he said as he
got settled in the chair again “And we need to sort out Mr. Urban as well. He
could’ve killed
“I know” Viggo said as he gently stroked
out of his way to taunt or humiliate
Orli puts on a brave face but I know that Karl’s words hurt him deeply.”
“Well, we need to sort and change that” Craig said
as he settled back in the chair and continued to watch the movie with Viggo.
After an hour he yawned and looked at Viggo. “Let’s get him to bed.”
Viggo nodded and gently lifted
gently picked
up.
Both actors smiled as
his head against Viggo’s shoulder.
Careful not to bump his ankle against anything,
Viggo carried his sleeping charge up the stairs. He laid
up the ankle on a pillow, before covering him with the blanket. “Sleep tight
Orli” he said before he switched off the light and left the room with Craig.
“See you tomorrow” Craig said as he disappeared
into this room and closed the door.
Viggo nodded and went into his room. Taking off his
clothes, except his boxer he fell on the bed and was asleep in seconds. He woke
up and looked at the alarm clock next to his bed.
It read
and he turned on his bedside lamp, getting up to get some water. He walked
quietly down the hall, stopping when he saw that
he said as he walked into the room and sat down on the bed next to his fellow
actor. “Is your ankle giving you problems again?”
“It burns”
whimpered falling into Viggo’s arms “And my head hurts like hell as if
someone’s pounding a drum on my brain.”
“Let’s get you some painkillers” Viggo said “Do you
want some ice cream. We never got to it since you passed out on use so early in
the movie.”
Both men turned as another person appeared in the
door.
“You two talk so loud I could have shot you in the
dark” Craig said, faking Haldir’s line in the movie.
Arial'> chuckled and smiled at Craig. “Want some ice cream?”
Craig nodded and walked over to the bed as well.
Between himself and Viggo, they managed to help
on one of the counter stools, Craig switched on the light and opened the
freezer. “Oooo” he said “Choc chip.”
Viggo smiled as he took out some bowls and spoons for
them. “Let’s finish watching the DVDs” he suggested.
“Okay” Craig said “You help Orli and I’ll get the
ice cream.”
Viggo nodded and then moved
his foot up and moved to sit next to him. “Here” he said as he handed him his
painkillers and some water.
“Thank you”
said as he drank the medication and settled back onto his pillows.
“There we go” Craig said as he came into the TV
room and handed each of them a bowl. “Choc chip ice cream with toffee sauce.”
Arial'> smiled as he ate his ice cream and then settled down to watch the
movie. After a while he felt himself growing sleepy. He carefully moved and
rested his head on Viggo’s shoulder.
“You tired?” Viggo whispered and
He then motioned for
to lie down in front of him.
Arial'> smiled and got comfortable. He snuggled closer to Viggo as the older
man wrapped his arms around him.
“Get some sleep” Viggo said as he placed a kiss on
a blanket over them. He smiled as
nodded and drifted off to sleep.

Craig couldn’t help but smile when he opened his
eyes.
Arial'> was lying on the couch with Viggo. He was resting his head against Viggo’s
arm and Viggo had his one arm wrapped protectively around
“Morning” Viggo mumbled as he looked at Craig.
“Looks like you made some progress” Craig said “Did
he sleep through?”
Viggo nodded. “The medication knocked him out cold.
I’m glad he got some sleep since that ankle and the concussion is giving him
hell at night.”
“Let me help you up” Craig said. He picked up a
pillow while Viggo gently lifted
head. Sliding his arm underneath
head he rested the Brit’s head on the pillow. “I’ll start with breakfast” he
said as he pulled the blanket over
and wiped some hair out of his face. Craig pulled his hand back as
“Viggo” he said as he felt
cheek again “He’s burning hot.”
Viggo knelt next to
“Shit” he swore as he felt the heat radiating from the young man’s skin “He’s
burning up. He wasn’t like this earlier this morning.”
“I’ll get a thermometer and some ice” Craig said
“You try and get him to wake up.”
Viggo nodded and gently shook
eyes. I need you to wake up.”
“Viggo”
moaned as his eyes fluttered open.
“How are you feeling?” Viggo asked as he pulled
a sitting position.
“Like hell”
murmured “My ankle feels as if it’s being ripped apart and my head hurts.
Please make it stop.”
“Breathe deeply” Viggo said as he helped him.
“I need to go to the bathroom”
“Okay” Viggo slipped an arm around
carefully made their way up the stairs,
keeping his full wait off of his ankle. “Just call if you need anything” Viggo said
as he sat
down on the toilet.
Arial'> had just finished when he felt the room spinning. “Viggo” he managed to
call before he collapsed and fell to the ground in an unmoving heap.
Viggo heard his name and burst into the bathroom.
“Craig” he yelled as he fell to his knees next to
“What happened?” Craig asked as he came running
into the bathroom. He gasped when he saw Viggo trying t rouse an unmoving
“Call an ambulance” Viggo said “he fainted and I can’t
wake him up. His pulse is way too fast. Something is very, very wrong.” He desperately
tried to rouse
as Craig gave the information to the operator.
Craig moved to
instructions on how to make
comfortable until the paramedics arrived.
Ten minutes later the paramedics arrived and took
over. They immediately inserted an IV line into
“Go with him” Craig said as they started to move
“I’ll call Peter and meet you at the hospital. Look after him.”
Viggo nodded and got into the ambulance. He swallowed
the lump in his throat as he looked at
seeing his pale face of yesterday again. Something serious was wrong with his
angel and he hoped that his love would get out of this okay.
