Mary came back and got the blood sample from Alessa's port. "Don't apologize, it's okay." she said gently, "It's good that you're trying to learn about her condition." Alessa had looked away as her blood was taken; it wasn't the pain that made her faint, it was the blood itself. Mary got her sample, then moved towards the door. "I'll be right back." she said, "Do you prefer apple juice over orange juice?" "E-either is fine." said Alessa quietly. Mary nodded as she left the room.

gabe stood silent. he was really embarrassed. what was he supposed to do!? he waited for someone to walk in the room so there wasn't so much tension. he felt bad for not saying anything. Alessa was going through some stuff, yet he just stood there not saying anything. "is she ok? OH maybe i should ask her!" he thought happily. he felt confident in his words, but he jumbled them up regardless. "a-are you......are you o- feeling better," he asked.

Alessa turned her attention to Gabe as he spoke. She lightly nodded. "Yeah..." she said quietly, "A little." She laid back in the bed with Scarlett across her chest. She shut her eyes to help keep herself from feeling dizzy. "I like her..." she murmured, referring to Mary, "She's nice." Mary returned a few moments later with a few small sugar cookies and a glass of orange juice. Alessa gingerly took the snack from her and nibbled on the cookies.

"Yea, she is nice," Gabriel thought. He stared out the window, not knowing what else to do. It was still bright outside. He looked around the room for a clock. There was a clock hanging on the wall, but it didn't have numbers on it. Gabe could only read digital clocks. He blushed at his own stupidity. he was too embarrassed to ask mary to read a clock for him, so he just decided that he would never know the time. "how long will she have to stay," he asked.

Mary sat down by Alessa's bedside. "We need to get her levels back to normal." said Mary quietly, "It may take a few hours or even a few days." Alessa frowned at the idea of being stuck in the hospital for more than a couple hours. "I'll try to keep on top of your case." she murmured.

[Hamrollz]

"A few days isn't that bad" Gabe said, trying to reassure Alessa. "This is the most bizzare thing that's happened to me in a while," he thought. "i wonder how many times i'll have to do this."

[Boomer]

"It is when you finally got out of here..." said Alessa quietly, "I've been stuck in a hospital for almost three years." Mary flicked her tail as she listened to Alessa. "You survived being here before." she said softly, "You can make it another day or two. Besides, you may get to go home later today. We'll see how low your iron is, then go from there." "That's a lot of talk for an iron shot." said Alessa, pinning her ears back. Mary sighed quietly. "Yes, it is." she admitted, "I'm sure Gabe will help you."

[Hamrollz]

"dont worry, im sure it will go by faster than you think it will," gabriel said, hoping this would help. Alessa is talking a little more than usual, but maybe that's because she's nervous or something," he thought.

[Boomer]

"You've never had a needle in your thigh, have you?" asked Alessa, looking over to Gabe. Mary sighed quietly as she folded her paws together. "I know it's not the easiest injection, but it'll get you out of here faster." she said, "I'm sure you don't want to hear my rationalize it." Alessa was silent for a few moments. "Can we get it over with?" she asked. "I'll go ask the doctor." said Mary quietly, standing up.

Just the thought of shots made Gabe shiver. He hated shots. "I've had a shot before, it was in my paw. They did it when I was born, I don't know why though, no one ever told me." he replied.
