WHO: Stefan and Rosalie
WHAT: Visiting hours are a-go! He finally gets to see her.
WHERE: Orange County Hospital
WHEN: June 25th, sometime.
Illeana had already been discharged, but the hospital was still a place he visited often enough. He was constantly checking in to see any word from Rosalie, any sign that she’d be out soon, before heading home disappointed. Illy was recuperating and he begrudgingly said very little while Cole stayed by her all the time. Even though he could’ve – would’ve, if needed – stayed and took care of her round the clock, he was glad someone could take over so he could check on other things. If it had to be Cole, well, there was nothing he could do about it just yet.
He was a familiar face at the nurses’ station, often patiently waiting for anyone to be free until they could let him know her status. The first day had been bad; he was a bundle of frazzled nerves as he pleaded for information. By now he at least was much calmer, tired certainly, weary of the same routine, but at least he was calm. It made it easier to ask questions and to be granted them. This day he wasn’t expecting anything new, so it took him a full minute to really register that Rosalie could finally have visitors.
He thanked the nurse – he could’ve kissed her, really, he was so happy – and headed down to Rose’s hospital room, walking only so he wouldn’t be kicked out for running. He wasn’t about to press his luck too far, not when it was smiling down on him. The door was open but he knocked on the frame anyway before offering a quick, “Hey.” He fidgeted in the frame, wanting nothing more than to step in but just in case, on the tiny offchance that she wanted to see no one, he could take a walk. Really, he was just glad to see she was doing okay. No visitors for days on end and now they allowed him to see her? Things were on the up and up.
