Red woke up the next day to a sleeping Damon, she stretched her limbs and cracked her sore neck. She's been sleeping in that chair for 3 days and all of her body ached for a proper bed.

"Morning" Damon suddenly said snapping Red out of her thoughts. She smiled down at him and mumbled a good morning. A nurse walked in carrying a tray with breakfast food. She placed it on the table and dragged it towards Damon's bed. Red insisted on feeding him the food when he tried his best to convince her that he could eat by himself but she refused.

"Thank you, Red" Damon said genuinely after finishing off his last bite of the gross hospital food. She smiled and dragged the table away from him so that the nurse would come and take the leftovers.

"I mean it. Thank you for everything and for being here. I think it's about time you went home and got some rest though" Damon said and Red immediately frowned and shook her head "I'm not going to"

Damon groaned "Red, don't be stubborn, just go home and rest. You look like you haven't slept or eaten in days!"

"I'm fine" Red said resting her back on the chair, glaring at the ground.

"Red-"

"I SAID I'M FINE" Red screamed taking Damon completely off guard. It was the first time he saw her this angry.

Damon didn't want this. He didn't want Red to care for him so much that she neglects her own health.

"Red, I don't need you to baby sit me" Damon forced the sentence out of his mouth. He didn't meant it,he loved having her next to him, but she looked ill and he only wanted to send her home and get some rest.

"I'm not baby sitting you!" Red glared at him "I care about you, okay?! Everything that's been happening is all because of me!"

"It's not your job to look after me. I can handle myself." Damon said unable to look her in the eye.
"I'm not going" Red shook her head and crossed her arms.

Damon groaned and glared at her "I WANT TO BE ALONE. DON'T YOU GET IT?! JUST GO HOME!" He yelled and Red gasped and stepped back frowning. She didn't understand why was he yelling at her. All she wanted to do was make sure he was okay. She wanted him to be on his feet in no time. She just wanted to help...

Red grabbed her purse and walked to the door trying as hard as she can not to cry. Without uttering a word, she opened the door, just as she was about to step outside she accidentally bumped into someone who let out a curse word. Red stepped back and saw Leo moaning as he rubbed his foot since Red stepped on it accidentally.

"That hurt" Leo mumbled and placed his leg back on the floor. Red didn't say anything and tried to push past him to get out but he sensed something wrong with her so he grabbed her arm and pulled her back towards him.

"What did he do?" Leo sighed when Red burst out crying. Leo embraced her tightly as she cried on his chest telling him what Damon said.

"I only wanted him to be f-f-fine" She sobbed "I-I I don't feel-" She couldn't even continue her sentence when she fell silent and still all of a sudden. Her arms around Leo loosened and he froze for a second wondering what the hell was happening.

"Red?!" He yelled as he noticed her grip loosened and her breathing got heavier. He pushed her away gently and looked at her wondering what the hell went wrong when he noticed she wasn't conscious "Holy Shit! HELP, CAN I GET SOME HELP HERE?" He slid down on the floor with Red in his arms.
