Shawn's little finger moved when Sepiroth stopped talking to him, acknowledging him some how. But there weren't many other signs that he'd heard what had been said. But over in the corner was a little monitor that gave random spikes to words being spoken.<br/><br/>Exactly ten minutes later, like she had said she would, the nurse was coming back in with a small reassuring smile "So, I'm going to be his nurse during most of his stay here, unless they tell me otherwise. I'm not going to care about visiting hours, you can stay as long as you like." She told him as she went to turn a small light in the corner on. "He needs someone who's going to be there for him." She told him a little sadly as she made her way back to the door. "Let me know if you need anything while your here." And with that, she was gone to leave him alone with Shawn, the door cracked slightly.<br/><br/>***<br/><br/>It wasn't until the next day just before supper when machines in his room began to beep and go wild for a moment, alerting nurses. But it was only Ann who came running to check on the poor boy. His eyes were wide open as he looked about in a panic, not knowing what was going on. "Whoa, slow down and relax Shawn. I'm Ann, your nurse and you're in the hospital. I need you to focus on me. Your friend is here, and he's going to stay with you while I find a free nurse to help me with your breathing tube, okay? Give me a thumbs up if thats okay." After several panicked breaths, Shawn managed to calm himself enough to give her that wanted thumbs. "Good man, I'll be right back. I promise."<br/><br/>Ann's attention shifted to Sepiroth "Can you hold his hand for me? Or stand in his view so that he knows he's not in here alone? I won't be more than a few minutes." She said softly, aware the young man in her care likely heard every word. But his comfort was her main concern, and to her that meant making sure he knew that he wasn't being left in there alone. That he really did have someone who cared enough for him there. And had been most of the night and day. She waited for his answer before heading out to grab an available nurse to give her a hand getting his breathing tube out so that he'd be able to speak for the new officer that was assigned to wait to question him.
