Logan watched as Max's chest rose with the rhythm of her steady breathing. The beeping of the respirator did nothing to help ease his nerves. It was all his fault. He knew it.
He heard the door of the hospital room creak open. The nurse looked at him with a sympathetic face. She slowly shook her head and whispered "I'm sorry," as she turned around and left the room.
A deep sob wrenched itself loose from where Logan had buried it and rose up his throat. A few tears stung his eyes, and soon they flowed freely. Anguished cries shuddered through his body as the events of the night before played through his head.
