A/N: Thank you so much for the review, Damkie! And yes, I totally know what you mean! Shorter chapter today, but I'm hoping to get a longer one up Monday. Enjoy!
The light is softer when I wake up. It's morning and the room lights are off, all light is coming from the window. I wonder how long I've slept this time. I turn to see who's watching me today and scream when I see him sitting in the chair.
"HEY!" The yell does not come from him.
I jerk awake and sit up, breathing heavily and sweating. The room is darker, half of the lights have been turned off. It was all just a dream. I repeat this thought to myself a couple of times to slow my breathing. I lean back into the pillows and look up to see someone I don't know watching me.
"Are you okay?" It's the voice I didn't have a face for. He has dark, messy hair and I think his eyes are blue, but in this light it's hard to tell.
I nod, apprehensive because I don't know this man at all.
"Was it a nightmare?"
I nod again.
"I'll be right back." I watch him leave and he returns with Dr. Po. She smiles at me.
"I'm going to give you something so you can sleep a little better, okay?"
Ummmm…I'm not really sure how I feel about that. But I can't exactly tell her no, especially since she's already adjusting the knobs on one of the machines. I can feel my body relaxing and it clicks that one of my IVs is for pumping me full of drugs. I wonder which one she's giving me as the room grows fuzzy.
