1 x 1 with Tigermeow

"I don't want to talk about it..." said Alessa quietly, still fighting to stay awake. The pain killers were making her drowsy. Her stomach growled loudly, but she didn't feel like eating. She curled up with Scarlett and the blanket before finally shutting her eyes. "I just want to go home..." she mumbled with a slight wince. Alessa was sick and tired of being in hospitals; she just wanted to put what happened behind her.

"We'll be able to go home when you're better, " Catherine sighed, but they knew it'd be quite some time until then. It was a conversation for another time, but they hoped to transfer to the closer hospital when she was more stable.

[Boomer]

Alessa frowned at the answer she was given. She didn't think she could ever get "better". The girl surrendered to her body and mind's wishes of sleeping. She drifted right to sleep. Alessa was far too tired to even have any nightmares this time. She dreamed of nothing.

[Tigme]

Catherine leaned back in the seat, exhausted. The adrenaline rush was long gone, and now they were just tired. They felt like they had failed Alessa, not taking into consideration the risks that could have happened while they were there. And now, they were right back at the start. Catherine stared up at the ceiling until eventually dozing off.

Some hours had passed and it was now dawn. Alessa woke up and looked over at Catherine. She was glad that they didn't leave her all alone. Alessa watched as a nurse came in and took some blood from her IV port.

[Tigme]

Catherine had awoken when the nurse entered the room. They looked over to Alessa as her blood was taken. They were glad she was keeping calm for now. They them turned to the nurse, "Do you know when the psychologist will arrive?"

[Boomer]

Alessa looked away as her blood was taken. As the nurse set Alessa's breakfast tray on her lap, she looked to Catherine. "I'm not sure... let me go ask the doctor." she said sweetly. She left the room and was gone for a few minutes. During this time, Alessa ate the oatmeal she was given. The nurse came back into the room. "Let's see, they have Alessa scheduled for 9 AM." she said, looking at the note the doctor had written.

[Tigme]

"Okay, thank you," Catherine nodded. Guess they were going to at least have to stay overnight. Although of course they knew it'd be much longer than that. They looked to Alessa, "I'll wait a while longer, but I may need to leave soon," they told her, unsure of the regulations on visiting hours here.

[Boomer]

OOC: Ah, I sort of turned it to the next day. But Catherine could still leave to get gas or something.

Alessa pinned her ears back as Catherine said she might have to go. "No!" she cried, "Y-you can't leave!" She frantically tried to get out of bed, but her knees were too sore. Alessa stayed in bed, but her eyes were wide with fear. She didn't want to be left alone again. "P-please..." she begged, "Please don't go."

[Tigme]

Oh, sorry! I didn't notice, my brain's a bit fried from work))

"It won't be for long, I promise." Catherine said, "It's just that with things like this, adults like me need to talk with the people who will make sure this never happens again. I'll wait until the therapist gets here, though. No one's gonna hurt you here, I promise."
