He was drifting out of sleep, the dream sweet and agonizing on the tip of his tongue. It hurt, though in the slow sweet sort of pain that he didn't want to let go of. His hand moved automatically for his phone before realizing it wasn't there and remembering why it wasn't.
Bloody hell.
With a sigh he opened his eyes and startled at the figure standing at the opposite end of the the room, dressed in creams. For a moment he had the memory of incense from the brazier and the view of the old rafters of the stone chapel crossing overhead. Fortunately the angry beeping of the monitor brought him back down to earth and he cursed under his breath.
"Sit down already, Fell, you look like the bloody angel of death standing there." And then he saw it. "I'd shift if I were you in any case."
Not a moment later, Nurse Janesca poked her head into the room, a large bowling ball of a woman who could frown even the most hardened criminals in to behaving.
"You get one," she said to Fell, dark eyes blazing. "If I hear that thing go off one more time I'm throwin' you out on your ear. Understand me?"
