Thomas didn’t remember being transferred to the hospital. He woke up on the sterile bed with his casted leg up in the air and his dog no where to be found. He looked around groggily, “Hn..?”

Avery was sitting by his side, readong a book. She looked up when She noticed he was waking. "Welcome back to the living." She said with a teasong voice.

He looked over at her with a small smile, “Where am I…? This isn’t your house..” he mumbled drowsily.

Avery put a bookmark in her book and set it aside. "We're at the hospital. The storm lifted." She explained.

“Where’s Siberia?” He sat up, looking around the room for his dog, “Is she, is she okay?” He still seemed groggy from the medicine they gave him earlier.

Avery gently pushed him back down. "She's fine. She's at the house, probably still on the couch where I left her."

Thomas huffed put a sigh and stare at the ceiling. Well, as long as Siberia was at the house he didn’t have to worry. He relaxed back into the pillow, eyes falling to his casted leg, “Did they have to do surgery?”

Avery nodded. "It was bad." She placed her crossed arms on the bed next to him. "Are you hungry? U can call a nurse to come get you something to eat."

“No…I’m not that hungry.” He declined, “I’m just…feel like I got hit by a truck..”

"Well, not exactly, just caught in a freak storm." She teased. "I'll call the nurse, see if they can give you any more medicine."

“Hah..yes, thank you.” He managed a smile to her, “That should help..”

Avery smiled. She pressed the button that she was told would call the nurse.

Thomas looked over at the button. It sounded vaguely like the same tone he used to whistle Siberia to him. He really missed her..
The nurse popped in after minute or so, “What do you need?” She smiled, then saw Thomas, “Oh, he’s awake.”

"I was wondering if he could get stronger pain meds." Avery said to the nurse

“Ah, of course.” She smiled, “I’ll just have to talk to the doctor about what type of medication to give him, can he wait a few minutes?”

Avery nodded and looked back at Thomas. She smiled at him softly

The nurse left the room to go tell the doctor Thomas was awake.

Thomas lifted a hand to his nose, “Nn..I’m fine..”

"No you're not. So suck it up." Avery gave him the look

Thomas blinked, “But I…I’m not complaining…” he rested his head back on the pillow.

Avery grabbed her book and flipped it back open.

He closed his eyes to rest, groaning a little bit more until the doctor came back.

"Where are you going to go after this?" Avery asked after a few minutes of silence

“I don’t know..” he sighed through his nose, “I’ll probably check into a hotel until I can get a plane back to Canada.” He stared up at the ceiling while the doctor looked him over and checked his vitals.

Avery nodded. "What part of canada are you from?" She asked, crossing her legs
