Nikkie had spent the week tense and not sleeping much. She was worried about Lena, and eventually Anthony had sent her back to her house, because she'd been too distracted to really be much help around the agency.

"Monique, I managed without you for quite a while, another few days isn't going to make the office fall into disarray," he said, gently but firmly bundling her out the door. "Go home. Sleep. Text or call people. I'll pray for your friend." She'd gone, but with rather ill grace, only to fall into fitful sleep as soon as she'd gotten home.

She'd woken up Saturday afternoon to a text from Joey, telling her that Lena had been found. She was in the hospital, and Joey was going to see her, if she wanted to come along. After texting him back to say yes, she definitely wanted to, she threw on clean clothes and hurried out the door. She picked up a bouquet of flowers to try and brighten up Lena's room a bit, and continued on to the hospital. She found Joey at the entrance and hugged him, asking, "Have you seen her yet? How is she?"

	"Psst, he's really good in bed. Shh, don't tell him," she mock-whispered behind her hand and then shot him a smile. "Oh come on!" he protested, though it was clear he didn't mind. "I mean...thank you, but hush!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nikkie wasn't even trying to hide the fact that she was both curious and amused. "Cross my heart," she said, her face mock-solemn. "It shall never pass these lips." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You ladies are making me blush," Joey informed them, and he was indeed turning red. "You're adorable. Are you guys busy? Can you stay awhile? I'm sick of being alone. I mean, Thomas has been here a lot, but he's at home catching up on grading things for his students and when I'm alone all I do is think and it's kind of horrible." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You really are," Nikkie agreed. Nikkie wiggled a bit in her chair. "I've got nowhere to go," she said. "I can stay until they throw me out, if you want." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You lived with me for two weeks after Lucifer had me so I didn't have to be alone," Joey reminded her. "I think I very much can handle hanging out today." "Thank you," she said, placing her hand over her heart. "I've felt sort of numb until today and now it's catching up to me. He wanted me to know I was worthless and I started to believe it."

	"Which is such shit, because you're completely wonderful," Nikkie told her, anger and sadness warring in her heart. "You are, you're a genuinely great person and I love that we're friends." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"What she said," Joey added, moving so he was a little closer to Nikkie, though it was entirely subconscious. "Thank you," Lena repeated, feeling warm and ridiculous. "I love it too." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nikkie reached out and squeezed Lena's hand. "I'm really glad you're going to be OK," she said softly. (Reply to this) (Parent)
