Waking up the next day was pretty easy for Cosima. Her eyes snapped open at around 7AM and after ten minutes of searching for her glasses she could see properly again. Looking across from her bed Cosima could see that Delphine was still sound asleep. It took Cosima a good minute to realize that she was staring at her sleeping neighbor, mouth agape and probably looking quite creepy. Its just, she looked so...peaceful. And so, well...beautiful. It was like Cosima was staring at a sculpture and not an actual person. Sighing lightly Cosima blinked and looked away, staring at the door. She felt cooped up in this tiny room, even though she'd been conscious for merely one day so far. Nobody would enter and find her gone, the breakfast staff had already been, leaving Cosima with a plate of toast at the foot of her bed. She soon ate it, feeling ravenous.
Licking her lips Cosima looked around the room. Nothing had changed, no one had come and Delphine certainly hadn't left. No one would notice if she went walkabouts for half an hour would they? It was then she spotted the security camera on the wall. It was positioned in the corner above the door, but surely they wouldn't be watching it 24/7? Deciding to take the risk and throwing her bed sheet off her in one smooth motion Cosima sat up in her bed, sliding off of the thin mattress and feeling her feet on the ground. It was cold and smooth against her soles, which made Cosima shudder briefly. She had been in bed for so long walking took a while to get used to again. Grabbing the stand with her oxygen on she wheeled it next to her, pulling the door to open it Cosima smiled and strolled out of it.
The corridor was a whole different place to her room. For one it was much brighter and if anything it hurt Cosima's eyes. It was also much nicer looking, being various tones of white and greys which made it look cleaner. There weren't many doctors around either, a handful were discussing something at the end of the hall, but they dispersed after about thirty seconds. Slowly making her way down Cosima made a point of looking in every door window as she passed them. There was so many rooms here! One looked like it could be for burn patients, and another looked like a lab. There was a crowd of doctors and nurses in there though, so Cosima didn't linger to try to see what they were doing. Cosima never realized that the DYAD hospital was such a big place! Coming up to the end of her corridor she decided to turn left carrying on down until she came to a dead end with a big black door. Peering through the window she saw a big screen playing some sort of video. Rachel was there too, sitting on a comfortable looking chair, legs crossed and what looked like a margarita in her hand. Cosima raised her eyebrows, standing on her toes to get a better look. She could hear what she assumed was Rachel's laughter as she watched the screen Cosima realized that she was watching Rachel playing as a child. "Sheesh and I thought I had problems" She chuckled to herself standing back down on flat feet. Walking back the way she came Cosima passed a woman's bathroom. Realizing she hadn't peed properly for about two weeks she decided she'd better use it.
Opening the door Cosima wondered into the cubicle, awkwardly placing her oxygen stand so the tube wouldn't get ripped out of her nose. She used the toilet and began to walk to the tap when a flustered Delphine burst through the door. Cosima jumped slightly, but mainly ignored it. Pressing the tap she rubbed soap into her hands and washed them. "Good morning!" Delphine chirped, her messy bed hair bouncing as she moved and spoke. Cosima let out a small fake smile. "Morning." She replied watching Delphine smile back, and walk into the cubicle. Taking a deep breath in Cosima felt a tickle in the back of her throat. Letting out a small cough to disperse the tickle was the worst possible solution for Cosima however, and when she did it she soon found herself in a coughing fit, spitting out large amounts of blood in the sink as she did so. "Cosima, you okay?" Delphine asked walking out of her cubicle. "Oh merde Cosima!" She exclaimed rushing forwards as Cosima began to slump to the side. Her vision was growing blurry. "Cosima, Cosima talk to me! Can you hear me?" Delphine spoke, gently laying Cosima on the floor as she began to fit.
The rest was a blur to Cosima, but the memory would never fade in Delphine's mind. Cosima could remember Delphine opening the door, shouting something. Then a team of Doctors rushed to her side, helping Cosima back into her bed. Next thing she knew she was waking up again some hours later with a migraine and Delphine sitting next to her bed. Delphine however could remember every aspect of it. Cosima's fit, all the blood pouring from her mouth and the way they almost lost her. "Oh thank god you're awake" Delphine whispered, her brown eyes wide and studying Cosima. Cosima groaned, clasping her head and trying to sit up in bed. "No no no ma chérie. You can't get up now, You're lucky to be here!" She said seriously. Cosima narrowed her eyes, looking at Delphine.
"You saved me?" She asked, cocking her head slightly.
"Oui." Delphine replied licking her lips. "Its late, you should get some rest..." She murmured standing up.
"Thank you." Cosima said, smiling slightly in bed.
"Enchante." Delphine replied, bending down and kissing Cosima on both cheeks.
"Enchante," Cosima replied in her best French accent, closing her eyes once more. Delphine smiled, climbing into her hospital bed, watching Cosima's breathing for a few moments before closing her eyes too.
