====================================
QT:NW continues the official Spin-Off for the Quaranteam universe originally created by CorruptingPower. You do not need to have read the original series to enjoy this one, but you really do need to start with Chapters 1-4 (I really suggest you read the original though, it's great!). Fans of the original should be pleased to know CP has approved the story and the continuity.
In this chapter you can expect recovery, hospital room sex, mff, frustrations, showers, and oral.

====================================
"God fucking damnit," I groaned, and someone grabbed my hand and said something.
My head was pounding and I felt dizzy for a long moment even with my eyes closed. That passed, and the
whom-whom-whom
in my ears started to clear around the same time as I peeled an eyelid open.
I was kind of surprised to find Miriam was the one holding my hand. I was looking up at her and a hospital room ceiling - well, the ceiling was just a ceiling, but the hospital bed I was laying in was a big clue.
"You back with me, Harri?" she asked me quietly, almost whispering.
"Mmf," I grunted, trying to sit up, but she put her other hand on my chest to keep me down.
"Don't," she said.
"How long?" I managed to croak.
"Six months," Miriam said, her face a graven tombstone of emotion.
"- What?" I exhaled, leaning back into the pillows. Six...? "How?"
She snorted and her expression broke into a smirk. "How the fuck are you so gullible, Black? It's been three hours."
"God fucking damnit," I groaned again, rolling my eyes.
Miriam moved aside, showing me that Kyla was sitting in a plush-looking chair in the corner of the hospital room, her eyes closed as she slept but her hands knotted into fists.
"She's OK?" I asked.
"Better than you," Miriam said. "A little shaken, once you were in surgery. Before that she was ice. She called me instead of 911 when you collapsed."
"We're in your place, aren't we?" I asked, looking around the hospital room. On second glance it was newer than I would have expected of any random hospital, and the door was able to be hermetically sealed. We were in one of the quarantine rooms that I'd seen when I'd been able to visit Vanessa while she was here.
"We are," Miriam nodded. "I wasn't about to feed you into the hospitals even with you being vaccinated. It's..." She stopped and took a breath. "Let's just say you would be just as likely to die there as get better, and you aren't that bad off."
"What is wrong with me?" I asked.
"Well, two inches higher and I could have been razzing you for getting yourself shot in the ass," Miriam said. "You got hit in the meat of your thigh, Harri. Straight through-and-through, doctors aren't even sure if you got hit straight on or if it was a ricochet. The main reason you collapsed was blood loss because you didn't patch it, you idiot."
"Lucky that's all it was," I grunted. "Asshole opened up on me with an Uzi or some shit."
"I was told," Miriam said. "Wasn't the idea for you to be staying
out
of trouble?"
