Logan swiped his hand down his face.
“I’ll be in to check on her tomorrow morning. The nurses will page me if anything happens.”
He nodded.
“You should go home and get some rest.”
“I wouldn’t be able to.”
“She’ll probably be moved into a regular room tomorrow. Our ICU isn’t that large and she’s definitely out of the woods.”
“I’ll talk to the hospital about a private room.”
“I wouldn’t guess anything less,” she said with shake of her head. “I’ll see you tomorrow, Mr. King.”
He collapsed against the back of the chair and stared at the drop ceiling above him. Between the uncertainty of what Aimee was going to do next and worrying about Izzy, he couldn’t settle.
Tired didn’t cover it.
Exhaustion was child’s play. He was used to that from a tour. Hell, even from trying to juggle a relationship with his fiancée and the tour—that was exhaustion.
This.
A whole new animal.
He swiped his hand over his face and the scraggly beard he was sporting. He should probably just shave the whole thing off. Go from head to neck and buzz the lot of it. He didn’t even want to think about what the fire and smoke had congealed into.
“Dude. Shower. For the good of all.”
Logan huffed out a groan. “Reading my mind?”
“No, I could smell you as I walked in.”
“Fuck off, man.”
Zeke waggled his eyebrows from above him. He held up a bag. “I come bearing Valentine’s turkey club.”
His stomach roared.
“Impressive. I figured you had done nada for food. How’s Bellamina?”
“Improving.”
“That’s what I like to hear. She’s much less…bandaged.”
“Yeah, the doc came in.” Logan sat forward and took the bag. He juggled out a quarter of the sandwich and stuffed half of it in his face. “Dee is a goddess.”
“She likes being told that as well.” Zeke held out a cup of coffee. “This is an Americano only because I love you.”
Logan rolled his eyes and popped off the top. “I’m not going anywhere, so I might as well be caffeinated.” Nectar of the gods.
“Has she woken up?”
“No. Not really. They knock her out pretty quickly when she comes around.”
“Well, if she doesn’t know you’re here, then go and take a shower at least.”
“I’m afraid once I get in there, I’ll never get out.”
