RP: A not so pleasant wake-up Date: April 12, 2006 Characters: Millicent, ? (Justin/Pansy and Ella/Seamus/Romilda?) Location: The Shack Private/Public: Private Rating: PG Warnings: Grief Summary: With the treatment given, Millicent finally wakes up from her coma.
The first thing she noticed was the smell. The smell of hospital, of illness, of excessive cleanliness. It was strange. Odd. She wasn't supposed to be at the hospital. It made her nose twitch.
The next thing she noticed was the bed. It wasn't hers. It wasn't Ella's. It was wrong. Just wrong. It made her hand stir.
The third thing she noticed was the light. It was bright, intense, hurting her eyes even if they were closed. It made her eyelids flutter.
After the light was the sound. Rain falling heavily on a window. People talking in a hallway. Singing and chatting. It almost made her smile. It did make her mouth twitch.
'Pansy look! Mummy's smiling.'
After the sound there was nothing but faint echoes. Dreams perhaps. Until once more there was light disturbing her eyes, sound her ears, smell her nose. That's when she finally opened her eyes, blinking and cringing at the light even if the room seemed rather gloomy to anyone else. She looked at the ceiling, blinking until she could see, if not clearly then at least clearly enough.
Why was she here?
She looked to the side, seeing the room, recognicing the room. Ella's room. Where was Ella? Feeling panic rise in her, she tried to sit, only to realise her body did not want to do what she did. She opened her mouth, trying to speak, to call for her, but only a small rasp came out of her mouth. She coughed.
