Sean was ready to go back to his room, and Patrick was self-conscious enough to stay and take care of Cordy.
"Patrick," Sean suddenly called out to him.
"What is it?" Patrick asked.
“Where are you staying?”
"Here, of course. I'll stay wherever Cordy is, and I can take care of her at night as well. You know she can't move around freely with the state of her legs," Patrick said, as if it was only natural.
"No, you're staying at a hotel," Sean rebuked him sternly.
"Look…"
"It's not up for negotiations."
"You just don't want us in the same room, do you?" Patrick growled, a little irritated.
"Of course. There should be proper social distancing between men and women."
Patrick gnashed his teeth in annoyance; although he had yet to earn his title, he wasn’t about to leave the hospital.
Making up his mind, he said to Sean, "I'll sleep at your ward."
Sean stared at him incredulously, and Patrick flashed an evil grin at the former. "What’s the matter? You're not going to turn me down when I'm just trying to take care of you, right?"
Sean kept an impassive look as he said, "Whatever."
He strode off, while Patrick looked on smugly as he left.
What a kid—did Sean think Patrick would be deterred so easily?
Cordy was speechless as she looked at the smug look on Patrick's face too, but simply lay down to sleep.
The instant she closed her eyes, however, she saw John unconscious on his bed…
"Thank goodness you're alright…" Nana teared up, filled with emotions.
"Why are you crying, Nana?" Keith rebuked her sternly. "You just cheated death! The doctor said you should be staying calm, but look at you! I won't let you see Lucas if you keep acting like this."
"No!" Nana snapped angrily.
"Okay, okay, I was just joking. You can see anyone you want. I’ll even buy you the moon if you want it, okay?" Keith comforted her lovingly.
"Dad, I want to talk to Lucas alone."
Keith shrugged feebly. "Chicks always have to leave the nest, I guess."
He gestured for everyone else to leave, and clapped John on the shoulder heavily as he did.
It was both a reminder and a threat.
