RP: Trying to get better Date: 25th March 2006 Characters: Megan Jones, mentions of Anthony and Kevin Location: 7 Sterling Close Private/Public: Private Rating: PG Warnings: A sneaky Hufflepuff Summary: Megan has decided she has been sick long enough and decides it's time to get out of bed.
Megan was feeling a bit better. She had been eating as much as she could handle and making sure to drink plenty of water. She still itched and it hurt to move but at least she was able to move. It bothered her that she still needed help to do some things. She wanted to be better and she wanted to be better now. Of course she knew that was not possible but she was going to do her best to try and stimulate her healing. She wanted more than just being held by Anthony and Kevin, even if it was wonderful being between them. She just wanted more...much more.
It was wonderful to be alone, even if for a little bit. Anthony, Kevin and her mum were taking such good care of her, especially Kevin but she knew that to get her strength back she needed to do things on her own. She figured taking a shower would be easy enough. The feel of the water running over her was just what she needed right now anyway. She turned on the bed and placed her feet on the floor. She stood slowly keeping one hand on the headboard, she felt a little dizzy but it wasn't too bad. She walked slowly to the bathroom, keeping one hand on the bed the entire time. She did need to stop once and rest on the edge of the bed, so she took a few deep breaths and stood up again. It took her a minute or so to make it to the doorway to her room and the hall.
The room started to spin just a little but it wasn't unexpected after spending over two weeks in a coma. It did not escape her that she would more than likely give one of her patients a stern talking to if she found out they were doing this. She pushed that thought aside and reminded herself that she was doing this so she could get back to normal and that meant getting back to her patients. The voice inside of her head laughed at her at that thought, it reminded her that she was doing this for herself and what she wanted. It might have been true but Megan didn't want to completely admit that.
She walked slowly down the hall with one hand against the wall. When she finally made it to the bathroom she sighed in relief. She walked in and sat on the toilet for a moment before turning on the shower. She stayed seated and removed her nightgown and then stood and carefully stepped into the shower and under the spray. The warm water felt incredible on her body. It helped relieve the itching she still felt and relaxed her. Now that she was in the shower she really hoped she didn't fall. It would be embarrassing for her to be found hurt in the shower. Plus, she knew Mum would yell at her and more than likely Anthony and Kevin would too. If she managed to get back into bed before they came home then no one would have to be any wiser.
It took her a long time to wash her hair and shower, since she had to stop every so often to keep from falling down. She felt much better for though and even if she was found out, it was worth it to not feel grungy anymore. She turned off the water and stepped out slower than she did going in. She grabbed a towel, dried off and sat on the toilet to rest for a moment. After she was through she made the slow trek back to the bedroom. She sighed in relief that no one was home yet and was pretty proud of herself for getting away with her moment of naughtiness.
Once back in the room she climbed back into bed and grabbed her wand and summoned a clean nightgown. She put it on and lay back in the bed, she felt exhausted after that and now all she wanted to do was rest and wait for either Anthony or Kevin or both to come home.
