Summary: Lori is heading back from the infirmary at the same time Jacob is heading off shift. This might not end well.
After settling his mother into the infirmary for the night, as it had been decided that it was safest for her to be under constant supervision until--if--she came out of this fugue state she was in. She was more responsive today, but only barely. She'd spent an entire hour staring at a fleck on the windowsill, looking for plumberts, and he still wasn't sure what those were.
He dreaded going back to his rooms, didn't want to be alone, but he had no choice. He couldn't stay in the infirmary twenty-four hours straight, and like it or not he needed rest too. He just wished he wasn't going to be alone. If only Scorpius were here, or Sandy. Sandy would know what to do. He'd know how to get their mother back.
He came to a stop halfway between his rooms and the infirmary, and just leaned against the wall. It was so hard to go forward when he thought about his brother, and his father, and everyone else that had been lost. He couldn't bring himself to blame his mother for wanting to escape it all, even if that meant she'd left him too.
He slid down the wall, thinking he'd just sit here for a few minutes, until he could keep going. He pulled his legs up to his chest and wrapped his arms around them, closing his eyes as he fought to keep the tears at bay.
