She doesn't do any of those things. She simply nods and follows Cameron back to her room. En route they pass Shawn's room, her body tenses up.

Cryonix Mon Apr 11, 2011 9:03 pm

Cameron steps into her line of sight...

Cameron: Come on hon. Let me help you....past this, alright?

Jabberwocky Mon Apr 11, 2011 9:03 pm

Raquel lets out a small sigh
Raquel:"Alright. How many years ago did you're marriage with Erin end? Not when did you divorce but, when did it end?"

Cruel Britannia Mon Apr 11, 2011 9:05 pm

Erin nods, choking back tears.

Cryonix Mon Apr 11, 2011 9:21 pm

Cameron: It's...going to be tough, hon...but I'll help you.

Shawn: God...that's a tough question. I....I don't know. Why do you ask?

Cruel Britannia Mon Apr 11, 2011 9:29 pm

Erin keeps walking towards her room.

Jabberwocky Mon Apr 11, 2011 9:47 pm

Raquel:"Well...and here's where the bluntness comes in...how badly did she try to save it? Because..."
she sighs
"Look, you both have been divorced for over twelve years now. If...she had wanted you back in that time period then why wouldn't she have come to you? It wasn't until you called...until I was in the picture...Shawn, I know you love her. I understand that. I'm fine with it. But you shouldn't have to torture yourself.
Do...do you know why I didn't talk to you for so long?"

Cryonix Mon Apr 11, 2011 9:51 pm

Shawn sits up, looking at Raquel...

Shawn: No. I don't.

Cameron lays Erin down in her bed. He doesn't strap her in. He sits in the chair next to her and strokes her hair...

Cameron: You don't have to say anything...just...let me try to comfort you, Erin.

Cruel Britannia Mon Apr 11, 2011 9:54 pm

Erin stares blankly.

Erin: Why are you being nice to me?

Cryonix Mon Apr 11, 2011 9:55 pm

Cameron smiles at her...

Cameron: Because that what.....friends....do, Erin. You won't be alone again.

Jabberwocky Mon Apr 11, 2011 9:57 pm

Raquel looks down at the floor, a hint of sadness in her voice
Raquel:"Because I wanted you to be happy."

Cryonix Mon Apr 11, 2011 9:59 pm

Shawn: Did you...think I was happy...being alone?

Cruel Britannia Mon Apr 11, 2011 10:02 pm

Another wave of tears hits Erin and she buries her face in her pillow.

Jabberwocky Mon Apr 11, 2011 10:06 pm

Raquel:"I didn't realize that it had ended...I guess I still have that fear in me from childhood. That it'd be my fault that it wouldn't work out. I wanted to be with you, but...I kept thinking of my parents. And I know...that wasn't my fault...but...I didn't want to risk that. Not for my happiness.
Had...I known..."
a tear runs down her cheek, she wipes it
"Sorry"

Cryonix Mon Apr 11, 2011 10:08 pm

Shawn: Had you know....what then?

Cameron just strokes her hair...being as close to her....as he can...

Jabberwocky Mon Apr 11, 2011 10:16 pm

Raquel:"I would hope that if I had known...then neither of us would have been alone for as long as we were."
she gently strokes Shawn's face, looking into his eyes

Cryonix Mon Apr 11, 2011 10:36 pm

Shawn: I see...

He kisses her...

Shawn: So then...what happens now?

Jabberwocky Mon Apr 11, 2011 10:47 pm

Raquel:"Now, we get you better and out of this hospital. We go home, get married, have our family. And while doing all that, we do our best to make up for lost time."
she returns the kiss
"Sound okay to you?"

Cryonix Mon Apr 11, 2011 10:52 pm

Shawn: Yeah...it does...

Jabberwocky Mon Apr 11, 2011 11:02 pm

Raquel:"Okay...want me to see if I can find out when you can leave?"

Cryonix Mon Apr 11, 2011 11:09 pm

Shawn: Yeah, I'm kind of tired of seeing nothing but white. I want to go home...

Jabberwocky Mon Apr 11, 2011 11:15 pm

Raquel smirks
Raquel:"Honestly, if your in here any longer...I'm painting the damn walls myself. Be right back"

Raquel steps out of the room to look for a nurse or a doctor to give her some info

Cryonix Wed Apr 13, 2011 4:07 pm

A doctor is walking down the hall looking at Shawn's chart on the way to his room...

Jabberwocky Wed Apr 13, 2011 4:08 pm

Raquel:"Oh, excuse me. Doctor? Do you have any idea when Shawn can get out of here?"

Cryonix Wed Apr 13, 2011 4:16 pm

The doctor looks up and checks the charts...

Doctor: Well...it looks like his vitals are stabalized and about ninety percent of the poison is gone from him. Maybe another 24 hours...and he should be free to go.
