Birthdays in a hospital, every girl's dream.
Caitlen didn't know what to think about all that had happened. Sure they had survived, but she didn't feel as excited about that as everyone else. Sure she was glad to be alive, but with all the rehab she was going to need to recover from everything she didn't know if it was actually a win in her book. Part of Caitlen's issue was now she, a mostly independent woman, had to depend on others for help with basic needs. Thanks to the head injury and the surgery that came from that she was now having to have help doing basic things again. It wasn't that she had to "learn" to walk again, but some things that she normally did without thinking took some actual thought to accomplish. Because of what happened, Caitlen also found herself worrying about what would happen with her relationship with d'Artagnan. Caitlen didn't want to depend on him for everything, but she didn't have a choice at the moment so what she fears most is that d'Artagnan will grow tired of helping and leave her. While Caitlen knew on some level that wasn't true, but that didn't seem to ease her worries at all. Whatever was going to happen was going to happen though because there was no way to change what had happened. Caitlen was just going to have to accept whatever happens next because there was no other option. For the current moment though Caitlen was trying to deal with everything that she was feeling, not just her own stresses and worries, but all the others around her as well. The one thing she did notice though was she didn't seem to be as overwhelmed as she used to be by everything around her. That may have to do with the amount of medication she was on, but she honestly wasn't complaining it was a welcome change. The one thing that had shocked Caitlen most however was the fact that Angelina wasn't camped out in the room causing the nurses and doctors to question their life choices. The fact that one of her eldest sisters was absent was shocking to say the least and kind of worried her. Unable to find her phone or d'Artagnan to ask Caitlen rang the nurse's station to ask what was going on. When the nurse finally came in to check on her Caitlen finally got a chance to ask all of her many questions. The nurse didn't seem happy to be near her, but Caitlen would ask someone else about that later, she did however explain that Angelina had been in and out, but she had gone to check on the restaurant and Rebekah was getting some much needed rest. That only left Gwen, who the nurse didn't know where she was, or she didn't care, either way. Before Caitlen could ask anymore questions the nurse faked another call and left the room leaving Caitlen alone again. She would just have to wait for someone else to come visit and hope they had more information and a better attitude. |
