Home {Iris}

[jasonwright]

 After the rescue boats arrived, Iris and Jason, along with every other survivor rescued from the island, were taken to SC Memorial. It was only after he saw Iris fall asleep from the medication that Jason allowed himself to be taken away by doctors. They took x-rays to make sure the cut hadn't gone too deep and damaged anything more than just his skin. Satisfied his stitches were well done and all he needed was rest, the doctors gave Jason a bed and knocked him out for the evening. Once he woke up, they re-wrapped his bandages and released Jason. 

He's been awake for about an hour now, waiting outside Iris' room as the doctors do their final checks before they're willing to release her. He's nervous, drumming his fingers against the frame of the hospital door. He just wants Iris to walk out of that room, cast on her foot, and pain free. He just wants to get her home, because she needs to be home.

"'M just... being silly," she mumbles against his skin. "Don't mind it, okay?"

"Well I wouldn't, expect I'm kind of confused by it..."

[littleredsiren]

"I'm just feeling shy!" she huffs. "It happens sometimes."

[jasonwright]

"Oooh. Okay, I understand that." He pulls the covers up over them. "Just hide and everything will be fine."

[littleredsiren]

She laughs as everything goes dark around her, the covers blocking out the light that isn't blocked by his chest. "Just let me out if I stop being able to breathe, please."

"I'll check on you regularly," he laughs. "You'll be fine."

"Good boy," she grins, slipping her arms around his waist and nuzzling his chest.

Jason shifts on the bed, getting himself comfortable as he closes his eyes. "Sleep tight, Iris."

[littleredsiren]

"You too, sweetie," she mumbles, already half gone herself.
