----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ryan sat in the room. He was in pain, but he wouldn't tell anyone. He was just glad that everyone left, even Seth. He didn't want anyone to worry, although they were. He opened his eyes when the door opened.
Marrissa was standing at the door. "Hey." She said.
"Hi." Ryan gasped. "What are you doing here?" He asked.
"I, uh, I, left my purse." Marrissa replied. She left her purse on purpose, she wanted to see Ryan again.
"Oh." Ryan said.
"How are you feeling? You don't look well." She said.
"Just tired." Ryan lied. He didn't need her even more worried.
"Oh, do you want me to leave?" She asked.
"It's up to you." He replied.
"Okay." She said while sitting down beside him. "Uh, Ryan."
"Yeah?" He asked.
"Uh...," She started, "Never mind."
"I need to talk to you about something." He said.
"Yeah?"
"Mr. Atwood needs his rest, visiting hours for Mr. Atwood is over." A nurse said. "You'll have to leave miss."
"Oh, okay, uh, I'll talk to you tommorrow, I guess." Marrissa said while leaving.
"Yeah." Ryan replied while watching Marrissa leave.
"Get some rest Mr. Atwood." The nurse said while leaving Ryan, once more, alone in the hospital room.
Ryan closed his eyes, and sighed in pain. He didn't even notice when Seth, Kirsten, and Sandy came in.
"Ryan?" Kirsten whispered.
"Huh?" Ryan whispered back.
"How you feeling?" She asked.
"Fine." Ryan lied.
"Are you sure?" Sandy asked.
Ryan nodded.
"Do you need anything?" Kirsten asked.
Ryan shook his head. He didn't need anything, but to be left alone.
"We'll be out in the hall if you need us, allright?" Sandy asked.
Ryan nodded. "I'm just gonna get some sleep."
"Good-night sweetie." Kirsten whispered while kissing Ryan's forehead.
"You sure?" Sandy asked.
Ryan nodded. "Just tired."
"Then get some rest. Seth, Kirsten, come on, let's let Ryan rest. We'll be back soon." Sandy said. "If you need us we'll be in the waiting room." Sandy said while leaving.
Ryan was happy to be alone again, he missed Marrissa, and almost called her, except for him feeling bad. He soon drifted off into a pain-filled sleep, he just hope that the disease could be treated...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Two nurses and a doctor rushed into Ryan's room. Kirsten and Sandy looked up when they did and ran to the room, followed by Seth. What was going on? Kirsten halted at the door when she saw the doctor and the nurses working on Ryan.
"What's going on?" Sandy asked.
"Code blue." Another nurse responded while coming into the room.
"What? He's not breathing? What's wrong with him?" Kirsten asked as tears filled her eyes.
"Get them out of here! NOW!" The doctor ordered while working on Ryan.
"I'm sorry, but you'll have to leave." The nurse who just came in escorted the two out then rushed back into the room, slamming the door on the two's faces.
"Sandy." Kirsten whispered. "What's going to happen to him?"
"I don't know Kirsten, I don't know."
To be continued...
