London sat beside Maddie's bed afraid to move because she was afraid that she would miss Jake the next time he came in. London held Maddie's hand and looked at her face. Stitches went across her forehead and a bandage was wrapped around her head.
(Nurse's station)
"I need someone to go give the girl in room 312 a shot for pain." A nurse said.
Jake looked up from the papers that he was filing. "I'll do it." He said anxious to see London again.
"Okay, I'll get someone else to file those papers." He walked in the door and prepared a shot. He walked to room 312 and saw London sitting in a chair holding Maddie's hand and staring into space.
"Hey London," she came out of her spacey state and looked at him.
"Hey Jake."
"You're not bored are you?"
"Extremely," she said with a sad smile on her face.
"You can use my CD player if you want to it should keep you from being too bored."
"Well, I guess I could if you don't care, but I don't have any CDs."
"That's fine, you can use mine, let me get it real quick." He ran out the door and went to his locker.
I could bring my own CD player but then I wouldn't have an excuse to see him everyday. She thought.
"Here you go," He handed it to her; "My Kelly Clarkson CD is in it."
"You listen to Kelly Clarkson?"
"Yeah, I think she is really good."
"Me too. You know I could bring my own CD player you don't have to loan me yours."
"Yeah, but then we wouldn't have an excuse to see each other everyday." He said smiling.
"Thanks, I'll give it back when your shift is over."
"I'll come pick it up."
"Okay, I'll see you then."
