 Early the next morning, Mary made her way back to the hospital. She walked slowly down the hallway, the buzzing of the fluorescent lights filling her head. She'd been too wound up to sleep anymore the previous night after getting Emily home. James and Tristan had left just before sunrise, neither of them speaking much about what had gone on in their respective dream worlds. Within a few minutes she was standing just outside room 314. She took a deep breath and pushed the door open.
Mary looked around nervously, clutching Kat's charts tightly behind her back. She backed up to a table in the corner and dropped the papers onto it.
Dr. Sutherland: "Why are you here?" Dr. Sutherland sighed and lead Mary out of the room.
Mary blinked up at the doctor. Mary: "How? Why? I mean... clearly she wasn't in the best of health, but she'd been holding on for so long..."
Dr. Sutherland took of his glasses and rubbed his eyes before putting them back on. He took a deep breath and paused before answering.
Mary could see there was something else he wanted to say, but he didn't. She didn't push. He gave her one last look before walking down the hallway. Mary watched until he turned the corner, then took one final look into Kat's room before letting the door swing shut.

You two do an excellent job at keeping me up late reading and all my emotions on the edge! (Yes, I have cried, laughed, shaken fist at the screen hehe you name it!) Keep up the great work you two!
I also added you to my live journal (I am fairly new to it, mainly because I did not know about it until I clicked your link on MTS2 forums and read Deception Pass entirely in one night...lol, and yes I am another Tristen lover...*holds onto his leg and doesn't let go!* lololol)!
