Bobby slipped into her hospital room. "You awake, Eames?"
She turned toward his soft voice. "Hey..."
"If it's too late, I can come back..."
She sat up slowly. "Please stay." She gestured toward the empty chair.
He sat down; studying her. She always pretended to be strong, but she had been crying. "I brought Skittles..." He produced a package of each flavor from his suit pocket.
She smiled. "Bobby, thank you." He always tried to make everything better and usually succeeded.
