Feeling Katie next to him, Jason gropes to find her hand, clutching it, trying to offer her strength. He knew she could do this...she had to.
As she lays her head on his chest, he reaches with his other hand, cradling the back of her head. It wasn't her fault...none of this was...
All of a sudden he pressure is gone. Jason sucks in a deep breath of air, his eyes widening as he's jolted from the attack. His heart races as his body tries to fight the weakness.
Rick has the phone in his hand, ready to dial 911, when he sees the change in Jason, and hesitates. "Jason?"
Jason's eyes are closed as he holds Katie close, trying to calm his breathing. "I'm okay," he manages. "I'm okay...just..."
Rick swallows hard and hangs up the phone. He puts his hands in his lab coat pockets and wanders to the foot of the bed, just watching. Watching Jason, watching Katie...something was happening to them, and he wasn't sure it could be explained. "Jason...Katie...what's going on?"
