The doctor mixed some kind of plant into a cup of water and told Elizabeth to help Will drink it. She did as she was told and did it quickly. "Will that help him?," she asked nervously. "It should. It will help bring his fever down and bring him back to consciousness," the doctor reassured him. With that the doctor left and Elizabeth continued her vigil over Will. "Will, are you up?," Jack whispered before he came into the room. "He's not up yet but you can come in, Jack," Elizabeth told him. Hearing the Will wasn't up yet greatly worried Jack. When he came in he was gladdened a little to find the Will wasn't too bad, but he was in bad shape. "How is he doing?," Jack asked her nervously. "Well, he slipped into unconsciousness late last night and his fever rose up. But the fever has come down and he's just sleeping right now," Elizabeth reassured him and herself.
"The doctor should be in soon. He was terribly worried about Will when I woke him up in the middle of the night," she told him. Jack didn't reply, he was to lost in grief and regret. "How could I have done something like this to him?," Jack said in a depressive tone. "Jack, stop blaming our self. The wound will heal eventually and Will is going to get better. So stop it," Elizabeth told him. Jack sulked in his chair from the comment but he would have to face the truth eventually. Yes, he did shoot Will, but it was and accident. And if he hadn't of fired that shot things may have turned out much worse. Elizabeth and Jack sat in silence for the next hour, the silence was finally broken by the doctor knocking on the door.
"Come in," Elizabeth said to him and the doctor quickly came into the room. "Well, at least his fevers dropped and his conscious again," the doctor said with relief as he looked over Will. "How long will it be until he wakes?," Jack questioned nervously. "Him waking all depends on if his fever breaks or not. If it does then he will wake within the hour, if not then it may be days," the doctor explained to them both. "But, seeing that his fever as dropped tremendously then he should wake within the hour," the doctor said optimistically. "Well, I must be off, but if you need me for anything then come and get me," the doctor told them before he left the room. "You see, did I not tell you he was getting better?," Elizabeth snapped. Jack excepted his defeat and slid back into his chair and waited for Will to wake up.
Elizabeth did the same and there patients soon paid off. Will started to stir in his sleep and with in minutes of him stirring he opened his eyes, but he soon fell back to sleep. "Well, we should go and get some rest. He should be up in the morning," Elizabeth said to Jack and then they both went off for a much needed rest. In the morning Jack immediately got up and went to Will's room. "Will, are you up?," Jack asked after he softly knocked on the door. "Yes, come in," Will replied groggily. "How are you feeling?," Jack asked as he came into the room. "A little better," Will told him. "Elizabeth should be up soon," Jack told him as he pulled up a chair and sat next to Will's bed. "I don't know how I will ever repay you all for what you've done for me," Will told him sincerely. "And you won't have to. The greatest payment is seeing you alive Will," Elizabeth said as she walked into the room. She overheard the conversation and walked in just as Will finished. "Elizabeth, I didn't realize that you were up yet, but its great to see you," Will said, still drowsy. "I've come to change your bandage," she told him.
Elizabeth gently removed the bandages and replaced them with fresh ones. Will grimaced in pain and he was relieved when it Elizabeth was done. "That should be the last time it has to be changed before the doctor takes out the drainage tube," Elizabeth told him. Will gave her a puzzling look and the he looked at his shoulder and saw the tube. He had been so out of it before that he didn't even notice. "Thank you Elizabeth, but what is the tube for?," he asked her quizzically. "Its for the infected fluid that gathered in your wound, but it should be coming out soon. The infection has cleared up," Elizabeth explained to him." I hate being stuck in bed," Will said stubbornly. "Yes, we know. That's only the umpteenth time you've said it," Jack said sarcastically. Will glared at him and rolled his eyes. " You have to stay in bed till the end of the week, then we might see about getting out," Elizabeth reassured him.
And Will reluctantly complied and stayed in bed for the rest of the week. At the end of the week the doctor came to check over the wound and see if Will would be aloud to leave the bed. "How are you feeling?," the doctor asked as he entered the room. "Better, but my shoulder still hurts terribly," Will told him honestly. "Well, that is to be expected Will. You were shot, and gun shot wounds don't heal very quickly," the doctor explained to him. "The drainage tube is ready to be removed. Then I will completely close the wound," the doctor added. The doctor gave Will something for the coming pain and then set about taking the tube out.
