"Jacob?" I jumped up to hug him. Pain stopped me from going as fast as I wanted to. His embrace was warm and welcoming. Jacob and I basically grew up with each other. We even went to all the same schools together. As I pulled away, I realized he was wearing the same uniform as Sean. Jacob noticed what I was looking at.

"I know what you're thinking. I'm here to help you, not them." Jacob said gently. A sense of relief flooded over me when he said those words.

"I have to go. McLoughlin, I need you to come with me." said Jacob. Jacob left as Sean nodded. Before Sean walked out, I grabbed his arm and pulled him into a hug once again. I didn't want to let him go, but he had to go with Jacob. After smiling, Sean left as Peter closed the door behind them. He sat back down in the same spot. He looked at the door for a moment as I settled back onto the mattress. We sat in silence for a few minutes. The urge to lay on my back was huge.

"I convinced my superior to let me bring you blankets and pillows for the night. It does get a bit cold in here at night. I even got your watch back." Peter motioned to a corner where all the items were. He got up and got them and walked over to me. He slipped the pillow under my head and unfolded the blanket. Peter let me put on my watch before putting the blanket over me, being careful of my back.
