Ch. 3
Bridge walked into the sickbay to check on Syd. She lay asleep in a bed, an IV was in her right arm and from her head to her torso, and she was encased in an oxygen-mist tent that was helping her breathe. Sky slept in a chair next to her bed and some one had covered him with a red micro fleece blanket. Bridge stifled a laugh when he saw that Sky still wore his pajamas, he studied him; Sky's head lolled to one side, he was going to have a very stiff neck when he woke, most of his 6'2" frame was curled into the chair that he was in, one of his hands rested on Syd's on her bed. Bridge smiled at that.
"How long has Sky been asleep?" Bridge asked Dr. Felix.
"Before or after I sedated him?" Dr. Felix replied.
"You sedated him? Is that legal on your half," Bridge exclaimed in surprise.
"Commander Cruger gave consent. Cadet Tate came into the sickbay about four hours ago to sit with Cadet Drew, he was reading to her from a book, he nodded off after and hour or so and then I injected the sedative into him shortly after he fell asleep. It should knock him out for about 8 hours, and add in his sleep deprivation, he should be out for at least 12 hours, which will be good for him," said Dr. Felix.
"Right," said Bridge. "Do you think that you could you know put Sky in a bed?"
"I would but I don't think that Cadet Tate would take kindly to being separated from his…Cadet Drew," said Dr. Felix.
"The two of them just need to get…confess their feelings," said Bridge. "I know it would be easier for me."
Dr. Felix merely nodded and went back to his rounds. Bridge looked at his two sleeping best friends and walked out of the sickbay.
Z sat on her bed in her and Syd's room, reading a magazine and eating a sandwich. She looked up when she heard the door slide open with a hiss.
"Hey Bridge," she said. "How's Syd doing?"
"She was sleeping," he replied as he came over and sat down on the end of her bed. "Sky was in with her."
Z raised an eyebrow as to say oh.
"He was sleeping in a chair next to her bed," Bridge continued.
"Well that is good," Z replied. "Sky was a walking zombie."
"Cruger told Dr. Felix to sedate Sky," he said. Z looked at him incredulously and the pair started to laugh.
"You're kidding," said Z. Bridge shook his head and said,
"I went and asked Cruger myself."
"Wow," was all she said.
"He's giving us a week off to just relax and rest."
"That's nice…A whole week?"
"Yup."
"That is great!"
"He said it should give Sky a chance to recoup, come to his senses, and confess his undying love for Syd."
"Really now…"
"I'm serious! Okay so that is what his thoughts were saying."
