I stared at the door and read the 4B sign in front of me.
With one knock at the door, I slowly opened it.
Sean stood next to Will's bedside and they both turned to look at me.
"Hi."
Will smiled at me. He was wearing a grey hoodie and one sleeve was risen up with an iv in his arm.
"Hey." His voice came out hoarse.
Sean looked in between us and came over to me. "I'll be back soon."

The door shut behind me.
I moved slowly towards Will's bed and he held his hand out. I nervously took it, placing my bag on the floor.
He smiled at me weakly and I cleared my throat nervously.

"I don't really know what happened. I just dropped to the ground and everything went black." I rubbed his side and he placed his hand on mine. "It was so scary."
"But you're okay now?" I whispered.
"Yes...now that you're here with me."
I snorted. "Corny."
I smiled to myself feeling butterflies.
I wiped my eyes and he chuckled lightly.
"My parents are on their way soon."
"I bet they're worried," I whispered.
"My m-um-Lory..." He struggled. I could tell he wanted to call her mom but he hesitated. "She called me crying. I've never heard her so scared in her life. Dawn was pretty shaken up too."
