Chloe.Bruadair
Angela.Tremaine
Angela was definitely going to explode. Or implode. Or both. He was...what was he doing to her hand? And then he suddenly collapsed. On top of her.
Ow.
"A-Abel?" she whispered. She worked her hand free and stroked his hair gently. "Abel!" He didn't move. Angela managed to sort of wriggle her way free after several minutes, and carefully rolled him over. When she touched his forehead, she realized instantly he had a high fever. She instantly panicked. "Abel! Abel!?"
He wasn't answering. She was just about to run and get whoever was lurking in Javor's office when the light suddenly turned on, stinging Angela's eyes.
Seconds later, an unfamiliar woman appeared, her expression worried. But she smiled when she saw Angela. "Don't worry. My name is Chloe and I'm the replacement for the previous doctor. Please step back so I can examine him."
"He just collapsed," Angela said, worriedly.
Chloe paused and set her hands on Angela's shoulders. "It's alright. I'll take care of him. Why don't you sit there. It's alright if you stay." Chloe set about checking Abel's vitals, noting the high fever. She frowned slightly. Exhaustion, perhaps. Though, for the time being, she should work on bringing the fever down. "Actually, please help me get him covered," Chloe said, realizing she wasn't going to have the strength to do it herself. Angela nodded, and together, they rolled him over and partially covered him. Chloe went to get a bowl of water and a cloth He wouldn't be able to drink anything if he wasn't awake, so they would use this method for now.
She carried the bowl back to the table and wet the cloth, setting it on his forehead. "For now, continue to do this," she told Angela as she went to pull his shoes off. "I'll mix up a medicine for him, but he wont' be able to take it until he wakes up."
Angela nodded and moved closer to the bed so she could keep any on him and change out the cloth when it got warm.
Chloe went to find the ingredients for something that would bring his fever down.
((Angela's head implodes. And then she's crushed by the dead weight of a man twice her size.
Also, these two spend ALL their time in the infirmary. LoL. With one of them sick or injured. Does he just have exhaustion basically? ))
