Blood and Blankets: Part 4
18 hours and 45 minutes, into his wait and Sherlock was no longer alone in the waiting room. He wished that he was, because the strange woman who was sitting next to him, (unhappily married, at least three children, and looking for a new boyfriend) was possibly the most annoying person he'd ever had the misfortune of listening to.
She was babbling on about some story about werewolves and vampires, and Sherlock just wanted her to shut up. He wanted to tell her to shut it, but his conscience, that thing that he'd only developed really once he'd met John and that had a tendency to sound like the doctor, told him it was a bit not good and that she was probably worried and anxious about someone too.
Despite the warnings from his conscience, he was ready to let lose with a nice explosion of words and a good tirade, when a doctor opened the doors and spoke.
"The family of John Watson?" he asked.
"I am, yes," Sherlock said.
The doctor proceeded to explain in annoyingly vague details about John's condition:critical and status:alive... before he got to the most important part. Where John was now.
Ten minutes later, Sherlock was at John's side. John was pale, hooked up to machines that were doing most of his living for him.
John was unconscious which was probably a good thing, since the pain would be almost unbearable if he were awake. However the sight of John lying so still and frail on the hospital bed, hooked up to those machines was unbearable to Sherlock.
He stroked John's hand with one of his, as he caressed John's forehead with the other, willing life into his friend's frail frame.
"Wake up soon," he demanded, "please." Please was supposedly a magic word, and Sherlock would take any chance however improbable that led to John waking up.
