Robbie Ray's POV:
As I watched Lily turn over to her other side, I decided that now I was tired, and needed a cup of coffee. So I thought about leaving a note, in case Lily woke up and wondered where I was, but I didn't have the pencil and paper that I needed. Instead, I lightly tapped Lily on her shoulder. "I'll be right back," I whispered to her. "I'm just going to get some coffee, do you want anything?"
Lily shook her head sleepily, and turned onto her back again so that she was facing me. I smiled at her, and pulled one of the braids sticking out of her hat – wondering if she was too warm in wool.
I waved goodbye to her before heading out of the door, and made sure that Lily's eyes closed before I headed towards the cafeteria, which was located three floors down from where Lily's room was. So I took an elevator, that took forever to come, and waiting with a bunch of nurses and doctors until we reached the floor I was looking for. But, of course, like any hospital, the smell of the food was neither appetizing nor did it seem edible. I settled for the coffee machine in the back, hoping that it would produce coffee that I might actually like, and then I found a muffin that didn't look too bad, before I quickly went back to the elevator again and sat back down on my chair in Lily's room.
When I got there, I found Lily asleep. So I tiptoed in as I tried to make no sound, and picked up the closest magazine for me to look at. Unfortunately for me, the magazine was for kids in preschool, so I figured Blake had picked it up. Without any more options, I looked around Lily's room, at the yellow polka dotted wallpaper that covered all of the walls, and was starting to fade. And then out of the large wall to floor window that took up the space across from Lily's bed, but all you could see from there was the interstate with all the cars and traffic, and couple unfortunate houses that lived nearby. Then, the only thing left to look at was Lily and all of the machines that they had her hooked up to. There was a heart monitor that had been there since the incident that happened almost a week ago. And then, there was the two IV's she was hooked up to, that made it seem like it would be hard to move around of the bed – which it probably was.
Lily herself seemed almost lifeless when she was asleep. It was bad enough that she was in the hospital, but because of everything that's been going on she'd lost noticeable weight, and sometimes I thought that if you looked close enough, Lily was still as pale as when we'd brought her here.
"Mr. Stewart?" Lily whispered only seconds after I'd stopped looking at her, I noticed first thing that her breathing was starting to shallow again. I immediately put my hand against her forehead to check her temperature, "I don't feel so well."
I nodded my head, and pressed the button for Lily's doctor to come check on her. He came almost immediately, and I was send out of the room. In worry I paced the waiting room until a doctor came out and I could demand answers about what was happening.
"It should be alright," a doctor told me only half an hour after he'd entered Lily's room, giving me a pat on the shoulder. "The infections fighting back and Lily's white blood cells are too low to do anything about it."
I nodded my head, knowing, this time, what the doctor was talking about. "Will be okay though?"
The doctor, who was not Lily's regular, looked towards the room he'd just come out of and watched three other nurses and doctors exit. "We have to move her first radiation session to Tuesday instead of Friday."
