The first thing I see when I open my eyes is the blurry white ceiling. My body feels tired and heavy but it's nothing I can't handle. At least the crazed pain is gone. I focus on the ceiling for a long second as the edges start to sharpen, and I hold back a groan when I realize I'm the hospital. I do not like hospitals. I slowly look around the room, frowning when I see the man seated on the only chair beside the bed, then my heartbeat escalates when I recognize Kane. He's leaning back against the backrest, eyes closed. He's fast asleep. What is he doing here? The door opens and a smiley nurse steps in. "You are finally awake!" I watch her as she takes my chart from beside the bed. "How long have I been here?" "A day. Maybe less. It's Wednesday evening." She looks me over.
