“I can see if someone can come here to check on you- If not, I’ll come back and get you, okay?” Connor said, pulling out his phone and texting someone.
-
“Yeah- okay. I’m sorry,” Elliot said quietly. “Sorry it’s been such a bother-“ “Hey, you can’t control it, dude, don’t worry about it,” MJ said reassuringly, climbing up to Elliot’s bed and sit with him.
-
“Yeah, don’t worry about it, dude,” Connor said with a nod, giving him a reassuring smile. “I’m glad you said something instead of just trying to push through the pain,” he added before excusing himself, walking out of the cabin. Finn came out after a moment, tugging at the hem of his shorts. He walked over to Aurthur’s side, watching Elliot and MJ silently.
-
“So, this is the worst it’s been?” Arthur asked, crossing his arms a little. “Not- not as bad as when I dislocated it, but pretty bad-“ Eliot said, shrugging a little.
-
“Did you sleep with your brace on?” Finn asked, walking over to his bed and sitting down as he grabbed a pair of socks. “I mean, if I wear my binder to sleep, my chest hurts really bad- I dunno if it’s the same, but y’know-“ He stopped himself from talking, figuring this wasn’t helping. He pulled on his socks, putting on his sneakers.
-
“Uh, no I didn’t,” Elliot said softly, wincing as he moved to the edge of his bed and hung his legs off the side. “I’ve learned in the past that’s not the best idea,” he said, forcing a chuckle.
-
Finn nodded as he finished tying his shoe, standing to his feet. He moved back to Aurthur’s side, gently taking his hand as he anxiously watched Elliot. “I hope this isn’t because of yesterday, the fall could’ve made it worse,” he spoke softly.
-
“I mean, I dunno what else it’d be from, y’know?” Arthur said quietly. “Wait, hold up, have some water,” MJ said, hopping off Elliot’s bed and walking across the room where he had left his water bottle.
-
“I guess that’s true,” Finn replied quietly with a nod, rubbing the back of Aurthur’s hand with his thumb. “I just hope it’s not severe. I mean, what if it gets infected, and it develops into some sort of disease and then you have to amputate your leg-“ He stopped, his face heating up, “I should stop talking,” he muttered, looking down at his shoes.
-
Elliot frowned, wincing again as MJ climbed back up onto the bed, rocking it slightly. “My bad- but you’re not gonna need to get it ambulated- they’ll put you on some drugs or something, and you’ll be great!” Elliot forced a smile, chuckling swanky as he nodded in agreement.
-
“Yeah, right,” Finn said with a forced smile, nodding. He let go of Aurthur’s hand, walking over to the door. He pulled it open, walking outside. Why can’t you just f---ing shut up for once?!
-
Arthur glanced at Elliot, who made a lazy gesture to tell him to follow Finn. “God, what good are Connor’s long legs if he’s gonna take this f---in’ long,” Elliot whined, leaning against the wall as he took a sip of water. Arthur went outside, shutting the door behind him. “What’s up?”
-
“Nothing, I- I’m sorry, I know I shouldn’t have said that,” Finn said, running a hand through his hair. “I- I wasn’t trying to make things worse-“ But of course you f---ing made it worse, a--hole… He exhaled, gripping his hair in his hand for a moment.
-
“Okay, well, lemme say this,” Arthur said, pausing for a second to get Finn’s attention. “Elliot had already thought of that, I promise you. He is such an overthinker, he just doesn’t show it. He’s not mad at you, I promise.”
-
Finn watched Aurthur for a moment before nodding, releasing his hair from his hand. “Right, yeah,” he replied, exhaling softly. “Guess that’s one thing we have in common,” he replied, chuckling awkwardly. He looked up, seeing Connor come back. “We’ve gotta get him down there, apparently none of the medics are allowed to leave in case of an emergency,” the counselor said, rolling his eyes. “Emergency my ass, they just don’t wanna move their s---.” Finn moved out of the way of the door and opened it, grabbing Aurthur’s hand and heading inside.
