(Hnggh fine I'll chuck 'surprise' in now I guess)
After a bit, Jay woke up again. He opened his eyes, but thought for a moment that he hadn't. Then, he realized it was pitch dark in the room and he could see nothing. The heart monitor began beeping more and more rapidly, and Jay tried to make out something, anything in the room. Calm down, calm down, calm down… they must be here somewhere…

Drew felt Jay starting to freak out. So, he went over and sat on the side of the bed next to him. He grabbed Jay's hand and whispered, "It's okay, kid. I'm here. Go to sleep, now." He waited until Jay fell asleep before he himself dozed off, still holding Jay's hand.

As everyone was falling asleep, Allison was still reading. It took a while, but eventually the book wore her out, and she went out cold. Allison slept through quite a bit, but her dreams were filled with the idea of going home.

Drew woke up, still holding Jay's hand. He gently took his hand away, causing Jay to stir a little then doze off again. Drew smiled at the kid then looked around at the sleeping people around him. His eyes lingered on Bridgett for a little longer than the rest before he walked out of the room as quietly as he could, deciding to go get some breakfast and coffee for everyone to have when they get up. Knowing hospital food sucks, he went into town to retrieve the meal.

@Fraust

Jay woke up soon after Drew left, and the room was still very dark. His heart rate climbed again. Stupid, stupid, stupid! Calm down! Scared of the dark… you really are just useless… Where did Drew go? Jay realized that Drew had gone, which made him more worried.

(my adorable child omg. that's so cute)

Drew found a little dinner and bought coffee for the adults and a chocolate milk for Jay. He bought them all food and took the bags back to the hospital and the room.

@Swiggotyy_Swootyy

He found Jay on the ground with his heart monitor beeping quickly. Drew set the bags of food and the drinks down and rushed quickly and quietly over to the bed. "Hey, hey, hey," he whispered to the boy in front of him. "Are you okay? Come on, let's get you back in bed." He lifted the boy and gently set him back in his bed.

@Fraust

Jay jumped at Drew's sudden appearance, startled. His pulse spiked for a moment before returning to the other fast pace. His breathing still sounded raspy from the 'incident' from yesterday, and was quick and shallow. Pull yourself together! The darkness can't hurt you! It's not the darkness itself I'm scared of. I'm scared of what's in it.

@Swiggotyy_Swootyy

Drew sensed Jay's panic, "Hey, kid," He started, talking sweetly and gently. "It's alright. It's just me. You don't need to be afraid. Take deep breaths, okay? Deep breaths." He talked slowly and softly, trying to calm him. "In your nose and out your mouth. You're going to be fine."

@Fraust

Jay hesitated before hugging Drew tightly, clinging to him for dear life. Breathe…. stupid! Why can't I do anything right?! "Stupid… stupid, stupid, stupid…" He whispered almost inaudibly to himself over and over, his eyes stinging with tears. Don't cry, you're weak!
