dan's jacket was on the floor beside the bed.
phil reached into the pocket and withdrew a phone.
it was cracked.
phil guessed it had been recent.
he switched it on and swiped the screen.
much to his surprise, and relief, dan didn't have a password.
he went to contacts and added his own number.
he could only hope dan would call it.
there was a small groan.
dan was stirring.
suddenly he sat bolt upright in bed, a look of terror in his brown eyes.
he jumped up from the bed, meaning to grab the phone and jacket from phil, but froze; his face contorted in pain.
"dan"
...
"dan," phil said again,"what's going on?"
...
"i know you don't like talking but i've added my number on your phone"
...
"message me anytime"
dan snatched the phone and jacket and ran out the door, swiftly despite his injuries.
there was the sound of a door shutting.
and then dan was gone.
