The blinds to the window in her room were shut. Megan stirred in her hospital bed, a few hours of sleep finally coming to her after a very restless night. It felt safer when her friends were there, but the fear that she'd fall asleep and never wake up gripped onto her relentlessly. Maybe she was losing hope that she'd ever survive this thing, but Megan was a fighter and the looks on the faces of those around her, concern in their eyes, pushed her to hold on. The Healers had told her last time that part of getting through it was believing you could. She didn't know if she believed that, but for her friends she was willing to try. As her eyelids fluttered open she inhaled as though she hadn't been breathing in her sleep. Moving to sit up, she stopped abruptly as the ache deep in her bones forced her to lie back down. She expected to see both Ernie and Justin sitting nearby, but Ernie must have gone to check on the apothecary, because Justin was the only one there. For a moment she forgot everything from the past. All of her stubbornness and pulling away, and she pulled her arm out from under the blanket to reach out for him with her hand. "Justin." |
