<<don't forget Alex has been tagged too

The nurse had finally left, satisfied Julia wasn't some
nut job claiming relations to people and even apologizing, explaining about a
situation that happened last week, to which Julia smiled and let it
slide.
"Your guy here is going to have a heck of a time getting
in and out of a bathtub so I hope you have a shower. And I'll bring by
some extra bandages and such so you can change his dressing once a day.
We're very lucky it didn't puncture a lung or you'd be here for more than just a
few hours." Their nurse said, writing down notes on Nick's medical chart "And
next time a bookcase falls Mister Boyle, try to dive faster out of its
way."
Bookcase, Julia thought, giving Alex a brownie point for
coming up with that excuse as she turned to look at Nick and gently trace the
side of his face.
"And this should help with the pain now." the nurse added,
injecting a needle into Nick's upper arm before rolling down the man's sleeve
and taking her leave.
Julia then slid her fingers down, tracing the cloth tape
around his abdomen and down into his left hand, lifting it to hold between both
of hers as she propped her chin on their joined hands and gazed at him,
whispering teasingly "Dive faster, Boyle."
Just then the door opened and she looked over to see Kat
coming in.
"Hi," she <Kat> said shyly. "Nick are you
okay?"
