Blakley's head pounded. It hurt, she wanted to sleep and stay in her pit. "Rosie?"
Her eyelids fluttered a little at the voice, "Mama!"
She willed herself to snap them open at the little noise, "Elmo!"
Her voice was hoarse, and croaked and cracked as she attempted to say it back with the same enthusiasm. Ruby rubbed her eyes, "Hey", she said softly, "I'll go find Whale".
Her hand rubbed at her chest, painfully reminding her of the sacrifice she had made that led her here. Graham gave her a look, "That was stupid", he snapped, tiredness seeping from his pores.
"Shut the fuck up", she pulled her blanket back and motioned for Elliot to get under it with her, "I still hate you, you fucking cheater", she gave Elliot a massive hug as he crawled up onto the bed with his mother.
"Why'd you save me then?"
"I dunno. I was bleeding with head trauma. I was delusional and stupid", she snapped, "But I let her kill before. Even if I despise you I wasn't letting her kill anyone else".
Graham sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose, leaning back in his chair, "Can you calm down?"
"Can you not stick your dick in places it shouldn't be?"
"Rose-".
"Shut up", she glared at him and pinched at Elliot's nose, "I've got your nose, Elmo, I've got it!"
Blakley looked up and saw a flash of blonde hair outside her door. Emma peeked in and smiled when she saw Blakley grinning at her. Emma slid the door open and entered, "Hey", she turned to Graham, "You sure you're okay with me taking over as sheriff?"
Blakley's head snapped towards Graham, she cringed at the twinge at the back of her neck, "You resigned?"
"I'm still working at the station, just as deputy. It's less hours and that way I can-".
"Look after me", she guessed. Graham nodded softly, "I'm staying at Ruby's".
Emma cleared her throat and made herself comfortable at the end of Blakley's bed, folding her legs together in a criss-cross, "How's the head?"
"Eh, Whale should be here soon, Ruby went to get him", Blakley said.
Emma nodded, sending a quick glare to Graham, "Eventful two weeks, huh?"
"I was out for two weeks?"
"That you were, Doctor Flanagan. Severe head trauma", Whale said, entering the room and flipping through her chart, "Take the week off after we discharge you and we'll see you back at work in less than three weeks".
"That maths doesn't add up", Blakley mumbled.
"You'll stay here for another week, we have to monitor you closely with the coma and all. Then we'll release you to your fiance, or Ruby-", Emma cleared her throat pointedly, "Either Ruby or Miss Swan. Week off, and then you'll be back pending evaluation", Whale said, snapping her chart closed, "We'll bring you lunch in an hour".
He was gone, well almost, before Graham suddenly asked, "Why can't I take her home?"
Whale turned on his heel, "Blakley doesn't take kindly to cheaters, I highly doubt she'll willingly leave the hospital with you. Have a good day, I'll be back with your meds before the end of my shift, Blake".
Whale actually got to leave this time. Graham huffed. Ruby and Emma looked at each other, Emma unfolded her legs and stood, "I need some food, and a hot chocolate from Granny's", she mumbled and stood at the door.
