Brennan groaned from the pain of being shot in the chest. She opened her eyes to see three worried faces: Hodings, Angela, and Cam. Where's Booth, she thought to herself.
"Oh, thank God you're okay, sweetie!" Angela exclaimed.
Brennan opened her mouth to say something but all that came out was, "OW," and they all laughed their worried little laughs. She looked into their eyes and saw how worried they had been for her, but also relief that she was okay.
"Can someone tell me how I am?" She croaked. It sounded like she had swallowed a handful of sand.
"You've been out for a little over a day," Angela stated.
"You were shot fairly close to your heart and you lost a lot of blood," Cam added.
"Is that why I feel so groggy?" Brennan asked and laughed at the faces that they made.
"You really scared us there, Dr. Brennan," Hodgins said.
"I know. I'm sorry. I thought I would be safe."
She looked away from her friends' faces and saw all the different cards that had already been left and how much everyone she knew cared about her. That's when it clicked.
"Where's Booth. I heard him calling my name in the apartment." She breathed in a bit too hard, causing her wound to stretch out and making her wince noticeably.
Angela pressed the button for pain killers after seeing the pain Brennan was in and said," Don't worry, he'll be here when you wake up. He's been here all day and needed rest. And so do you, so sleep."
"Thank... you..." Brennan said as she drifted off into troubled and uneasy sleep.
I know that it usually takes longer to wake up from something like that but I wasn't sure how long. I apologize for the grammar problems (if there are any) and the weirdness or any other problems that there are. I'm only in 9th grade so I don't really have any experience with some of the things that I write about, only from books that I've read (yes, I'm a dork like that hehe) but I will try to make things better in later chapters on the next fanfic that I'm going to write soon. Please keep reviewing; constructive criticism will be greatly appreciated to make my writings better and more enjoyable. THANK YOU!
