"Nick, is that you? What are you doing?" Meggie asked, getting out of bed.
"Yeah, it's me. I just fell. Go back to sleep," Nick said, trying to get up, but failing.
"You fell? Here, let me help you up. Do you want some more of your pain killer's?" she asked, wrapping her arm around him to support him while he stood up.
"Thanks. I was actually getting up to get my pills," he said, limping as Meggie walked him back to his room. "Ow, my leg is killing me."
"Nick, put all your weight on me, and your good leg," Meggie ordered, tightning her grip around his waist.
He smiled at her. "Thanks," he said, quietly as he sat down on his bed.
"It's what I'm here for. I'm gonna go get your pills. Is there anything else you'd like?" she asked.
"Yeah, could I have some water, too please?" Nick asked, politly.
"Yeah, of course. Stay here, I'll be back," she said, leaving the room.
A few minutes later, she returned with his water and pain killers. "Here ya go," she said, handing him his stuff.
"Thank you," he said, taking his pills.
"Your welcome. I'll let you sleep now," Meggie said, getting up to leave.
He started giggling. "Alright ditey then," Nick said.
"I'll see you in the morning. Good night," she said, flippin off the light, as she left.
