I just finished dressing from a shower in the attached bathroom, when there is a knock on the door. Risky move by doing this midday but I have to have a shower at least once a day or I just feel nasty, which is weird since we have been in this hospital room for almost two weeks.

I shuffle out of the bathroom, holding my bag when I see Holly checking Nicolas. He fell asleep not long after the treatment and has been napping for almost two hours now.

"Sorry, I was freshing up a bit more while he napped." I place my bags on the floor in the corner.

"No need to be sorry. You have to take time to keep yourself healthy too. Which is why I brought lunch." Holly smiles an hands a small bag out to me.

"Thank you."

"You and those manners. It is just us and Nicolas is resting so you don't have to keep them up so much." She laughs lightly.

I chuckle some. "Yes, I do. Can't teach manners if I don't use them and respect this amazing doctor that has been our snowflake wish."

It is true because to me she is one in a million that has came to help and grant the wish I asked for.

Holly smiles and tilts her head to where her hair covers her pink cheeks some. Before she moves to sit on the couch with a small bag of her own.

I sit and pull out what seems to be a burrito of some kind.

"It is just the basic burrtio with beef, lettuce, cheese and some packets you can add if you want too. There should be a bag of chips in with it." Holly pulls her food out, which looks to be a chicken verison from mine.

"I bought one for Nicolas too for when he wakes up for lunch, if he is hungry." Holly speaks up after swallowing her bite.

"If you tell me how much this costed, I will gladly repay you."

"Not in the least!" Holly whisper screams. "Besides I needed to take lunch and I know they dont serve the parents here, that tends to be a rare thing if they do. Also Nicolas needs good food to help him and not the things they will bring on a tray even though I put in food orders for his diet the staff downstairs don't follow it." Holly finishes her mini rant. Which I find cute.

"Okay, okay." I chuckle more.

We eat our food in in content quietness as the tv breaks the silence, since it is on and running over his favorite show.

Folding up the wrapper, I stick it in the bag and look to Holly who is still slowly eating her wrap.

"So your on lunch?" I could about smack myself.

"Yeah, I don't have a set time for one with right now my only patient case is Nicolas's." She smiles.

"I thought someone like you would have with another doctor or have someone to spend lunch with. To where you aren't stuck in here with us bored." I really have got to get better at small talk.
