Sean and I both sit up straighter when Dr. Rhodes walks into my room. It's been a week since I was shot so we're hoping that I'm able to go home now, and that I'll be able to see Camille. Being stuck in the hospital is no fun.
Dr. Rhodes takes a seat beside Sean and then he says, "All of your tests from this morning came back clear. If it were up to me I'd be discharging you this evening but unfortunately higher forces won't allow it."
I let out a sigh of disbelief and then say, "Who's not letting me leave?"
Dr. Rhodes shrugs and says, "I'm sorry Laynie, I don't know. I've told you everything I do know."
I nod and thank him. He then exits. I turn to Sean and see him wringing his hands. I know that he only does that when he's hiding something so I say, "Sean, if you know something, please tell me."
He sighs, knowing that I've found him out, and says, "Your Dad is the one keeping you here. They're no closer to catching the people who did this than they have been all week and he's decided that your hospital room is the safest place for you at the moment. I'm sorry for keeping this from you Laynie; I just didn't know how to tell you."
I sigh and say, "It's alright. I hate the hospital but I'm not about to double cross my Dad. He just doesn't want to lose me too. Losing my mom really got to him."
Sean nods and then I grab my phone and dial the number for Jay and Erin's apartment so that I can at least talk to Camille. Erin answers on the first ring and quickly hands me over to Camille.
Once she's talked her little heart out we say our 'goodbyes' and 'I love yous' and then I hang up. I set my phone aside and then Sean says, "I've got a couple of things to take care of so I'll see you later. Try to get some sleep, okay?"
I nod and then he leaves. I put my bed down, pull the blankets up to my chin, and soon fall into a deep sleep.
