I didn't want to argue with Dean's parents, so I told them I needed to rest. Mrs. Clark accompanied me to the bathroom because I needed to go. I discovered that my body ached when I walked, but it wasn't unbearable pain. I could handle it. And during the journey, I planned to go see Derek in his room. I didn't care if they didn't allow me to get out of bed. I had the urge to see him and hold his hand. I had the illusion that Derek would wake up while I spoke to him. I wanted to reach Derek somehow. I needed to have him close.
Mr. and Mrs. Clark left the room, but before that, they asked me to think about what I was doing. I knew they wanted Derek and me to separate, but they wouldn't succeed. If Derek were awake, he would have opposed the idea. I spoke on behalf of both of us.
I sat on the bed. I planned to peek down the hallway to see if anyone was in my way. But as I was about to get off the bed, someone entered the room. It was Scott.
