Chapter 5
(Author's Note: I'm basically just putting this chapter out to avoid becoming stagnant, I really didn't try that hard and it will probably be evident. Big things planned for next chapter, Stay tuned!)
Life can be hectic in the hospital, and it would seem that today was one of those days. Since Jason had been back to his room, people slowly trickled in, to the point that a dull roar was just outside the door.
Jason lay dozing in his hospital bed, sunshine filtered through the blinds, criss-crossing over his face, he was ill, 2 and a half hours and Megan was no where to be seen.
"Better be saving someone," he growled angrily to no one in particular
Jason was used to getting things his way, a fault; the he had yet to come to terms with despite his condition.
He glanced across the room, his eyes following each blank wall. Barren and non-descript… just the way he liked it. Jason was never much for thrills anyway, he prided himself on being a warrior, and his likes exuded that mentality.
A knock came to his door
"Finally!" He said happily, "Come on in!"
But, it wasn't Megan, just Agnes coming to check on him.
Again.
The old woman was sweet, he had to at least own up to that, but she reminded him of his grandmother … and she was a little annoying. But .. Beggars can't be choosers, so he lie back and absorbed her babying and sweetly coated words.
"How are you feeling my dear?" She said smiling down to Jason
"Any aches, pains? I'm the best drug dealer you'll ever meet, better use me while ya got me," She chuckled to herself, "I'm being serious Jason, you just let me know if you have anything bothering you at all, ok? I will see to it that you have everything taken care of."
He couldn't help but smile, Hell this woman was taking better care of him than his mom had at times. It was nice to have someone who looked at you like a person, and not an eventual retirement check. Resentment to his parents? Jason feel that? Naw.
"I'm alright now , just wish Nurse Jackson would stop by for a second," He sighed.
"You did tell her to drop by right?"
His mention of the other, younger nurse seemed to hurt Agnes's feelings. She reddened and stuttered,
"W..W…Well of course I did Jason, Has she not been by?"
Lying.. eh. Why she felt the need to lie to him Jason would never know. Got to handle this one carefully he thought.
"Oh well god bless you, you are truly a wonderful woman, I tell you that enough don't I? Don't know what I would do here without you."
Agnes smiled, "Well you are a good butt kisser. But that doesn't bother me. Makes these days go by quicker. I'm going to head out, got some more errands to run. People to take care of and what not. I'll send Megan this way"
"Thank ya!"
He watched as she left the room, hoping that she wasn't too mad. Had to keep her happy, cause she in turn kept him happy.
