Robin wandered restlessy through the halls, passing April's room almost ten times, before she finally went it. The Aid's patient was fast asleep. She looked at the woman lying on the bed, and wondered if that would be her someday, or Patrick.

But just as she thought of it, she shook the disturbing thought away.

"How's she doing?" Asked a male voice from behind her. Robin jumped, and turned around quickly.

"Jeez, you scared me! As to you're other question, all you have to do is look at her and you'll know." Patrick looked over her head at April, and when he looked back at her, Robin saw the confidence in his eyes,

"She'll make it."

"Ya." Robin said faintly, looking back at Patrick.

"I love you, Robin." Tears leaked from his eyes, "I love you so much." Robin closed her eyes, hoping that when she opened them again, she'd see the healthy, vibrant boy she's known before the Aids.

"I love you too, Stone. I always will." Stone's eyes closed slowly, as if he didn't want to sleep, but his body wouldn't let him stay awake. Before he fell into deep slumber she heard him murmur,

"I… I don't wanna die…"

"Robin? Robin!" Robin shook her head, clearing her thoughts, and looked straight into Patrick's worried face. "Are you okay?"

"Yes. I was just thinking." She doubted her believed her, but it really didn't matter.

"About what? It looked like you took a trip to Florida." His attempt at humor made her smile.

"Well, no, not Florida." More like the horror at Port Charles. "How are you dealing with…" Patrick's eyes, and expression immediately went flat. Of course.

"How I'm dealing with….I'm dealing fine. You don't have to check up on me, you know. I'm a doctor, I know the odds, facts, everything. You're not my nurse." With that blow to her anger, and pride he walked away.

Drake always talked to her about not letting anyone get close to her, but whenever they talk about anything remotely personal, he closed up so tightly there was almost, almost no room for discussion.

But Robin didn't care what he said, she would make him eventually confide in her. But in the mean time, she had to stop thinking about Stone!
