Re: Penthouse: Iris / Sam
[Sam was already fading fast, so Iris didn't question her any more about Cris and his competence. Instead, she spared a moment of relief that Louis wasn't with Ra's or (somehow) Ian. She did shake her head though.] Someday all of you are going to have to accept that I wasn't sleeping with Bruce. [The words were quiet and almost held some amusement to them.
But then Sam was swaying, and the nurse was there, giving her information. Iris wasn't certain she agreed with the diagnosis, but she didn't fight it. After so many years away, there would have to be so many things about Sam that she didn't know. She did her best to shoo the woman away, even if it was rude.] I've got her. [And she did. Pulling back the covers and tipping Sam so carefully to the side, getting her angled to be able to rest under the covers that were easily pulled up once Sam's head was on the pillow. Iris took another moment to sit on the edge of the bed and push her sister's hair back.] I'm going to go home once you're asleep, alright? I have ...things I need to take care of. But I want you to call or write whenever you need to. If I can, I'll come if you need.
