Re: Penthouse: Iris / Sam
[Iris just helped Sam lay down, got her settled and tucked in. There wasn't much use in trying to talk more to Sam at the moment. Iris could tell that the medication was stealing any coherence that Sam might have had. Her last mumbled words made Iris nod.] I'm sorry too, Sam. [One last press of her hand to Sam's hair, and then Sam was asleep.
Before slipping back out, Iris reviewed the list she'd written, thinking that she had no idea how to even start to tell anyone else about Joey's death. She still wasn't sure how to even deal with it.
On her way out, she stopped by Sam's nurse, saying that she was leaving, and to please tell Sam to get a hold of her once she was awake again. And maybe if Iris hadn't been quite so wrapped up in worry about Sam and grief about Joey, she would have realized that the nurse looked like she had no intention of doing any such thing.]
