‘Emily?’

That same voice was back. I groaned. ‘Hi.’

‘You okay? Need anything?’

‘Nh-nhh. Didn’t you just ask me that?’ My voice sounded scratchy and drowsy, and I swallowed hard.

‘Hm.’ The voice chuckled. ‘That depends on your perspective. Last time I checked on you was three hours ago.’

Three hours?

‘The band is doing the encore. I’d say it’s about an hour until we leave. You sure you don’t want anything? Water? Cup of tea? Painkillers?’

‘Um.’ I cleared my throat and licked my lips. ‘Actually, water would be good. And I think I was supposed to take some more painkillers.’

‘Okay, good. I got them right here. And some water too.’ He proffered a cup with one hand, and two white pills with the other. I took the pills and popped them in my mouth, taking a careful sip of water.

‘Great. That’s good,’ he encouraged me.

I laughed weakly. ‘You’ve missed your vocation. You should be a nurse.’

‘Not really my calling, but I do have two little girls at home. I can be quite good at the whole nursing patients thing.’ He smiled. ‘I’ll tell Mike you had your medicine. You feeling any better?’

‘I…I don’t know. ‘Bout the same, I think.’

‘That’s good. At least you’re not feeling worse.’ A pager went off, and he shut it up impatiently. ‘I’ve got to go, okay?’

‘Okay.’
