Phoebe's Room, Blueberry Hill, Saturday Night

[sleepswthdemons]

Phoebe was sitting in the middle of her bed. She was supposed to be resting, but she didn't seem to be able to do much of that right now. In fact, except when she took the pain pills from the clinic, she didn't sleep at all.

The events of Thursady night had left her anxious and freaked out. Everyone had slept in the room with her that night, and nothing more had mysteriously appeared.

The creepy gifts and card were in the closet out of her sight and the sheets and blankets had been changed on the bed. She had kept her bear with her, but right now it was on the bed beside her instead of her holding it.

She hated being alone right now...

Once more, like she had done a lot tonight, she got up from her bed and started limping up and down her room. She couldn't relax and she couldn't get comfortable and...

She was scared.

She pulled back the curtain again, looking out to see if she saw anything or anyone. When she didn't see anyone, she let the curtain drop with a sigh.

She knew Lana was asleep in her room or she'd go in and stay with her. Piper was out and she wasn't sure where Marie was.

Anders had said he'd come back tonight.

However, there was no sign of him and he hadn't called.

"Can't blame him after everything that's happened..."

After checking the window once more, she went back to curl up on the bed. She tried tro relax, but every noise and every shadow caused her to tense up and look around -- waiting.

"If Cole was still here no one would dare..."

She bit her lip hard enough to taste blood.

He wasn't here and he would never be again. Phoebe reached for her teddy bear and just held onto it as she continued to flinch at every sound she was hearing.

It was going to be a long night.

Marie tensed. "What happened?"

"Badly hurt... he's in the clinic..." She shook her head slowly. "I... I should go down there."

She might be ignoring the fact that right now she's in no condition to do much.

"He's in surgery."

"I don't know if that's such a good idea," Marie said, moving to rest her hand on Phoebe's shoulder. "You're barely out of the clinic yourself. Who called?"

[sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com]

"Piper called." Phoebe looked at Marie. "I can't lose him, too, Marie." She wasn't even trying to hold back her tears or hide her fear. "Marie..."

Marie gently steered Phoebe back to her bed. "So Piper is with him. She can call if you're needed. I think you should stay here and rest. It's not safe for you to be wandering around in the dark alone, anyway."

Phoebe sat down on the bed without argument. She might have been in shock.

"She doesn't know how he got hurt," she said numbly. "And now he's in surgery..."

"He'll be okay," Marie said, sitting next to Phoebe and putting an arm around her shoulders. "He's strong."

Phoebe leaned her head against Marie. "I'm scared," she admitted softly.

Marie was too, but she wouldn't admit that. "Maybe Papa Phale can check on him," she suggested. "Do some angel mojo."

Phoebe nodded. "I can ask him. I just... Marie, I can't lose him, too. I can't. Cole really would haunt me if he died, too."
