Open Lab -- Biology, Geology, Physics

*Any students who require tutoring, making up assignments, or taking missed examinations can do so now.*

*Sara is seated at her desk, grading papers.*

It was the least I could do. *Said very quietly.* And it was never your fault, Maia. Please believe that.

Maia shook her head. "I had to have done something." Maia said barely within hearing of Sara, her voice full of guilt over something she could not remember doing. Maia put the papers under her arm and held a slip for Sara to sign.

*signs the slip*

*her voice is very low*

You did nothing, Maia, except fall in love with someone...someone who can't love you like you deserve.

Maia takes the slip and tucks it in along with her papers. She nods, blinking quickly and says before she turned to leave. "I never asked you to love me anymore then you were able to and I never would have." Maia manages to keep the tears just on the surface without letting them fall. She balances the papers, her hands trembling a little as she moves the I.V. pole and tubing out of her way and adjusting her papers more comfortably. She walks slowly so she won't drop anything or pull the I.V. out.

"Jesus. You okay?"
John offers to take her books/papers and offers the seat next to him.

"Oh yeah thanks. Its ok. I have to get back to the clinic. I've just been given a short get out of jail free card." She smiles sadly "Really its ok though thank you. I appreciate it. I'm just going to get a bit of fresh air outside and look over these."

"Yeah, I think I may have to hit the clinic myself."
John absently scratches his shoulder.

"What's wrong?" Maia looks concerned even though she looks ready to drop from exhaustion or lack of blood, her skin is white as a sheet. "Are you hurt?"

"No, no, I just got bit. Are you sure you're okay? Cuz you're giving me some concern here."

"I'm ok. I should be getting back though. I'm just supposed to be getting my assignments and some air." Maia looks at his shoulder "I hope it was nothing serious that bit you." Maia starts to walk slowly away with her papers tucked under her arms.

John gets up and follows.
"Here, how about I hold your stuff and you worry about the pole?"

Maia's smile was slow to come as she handed the books over. "I'm going to go sit on a bench out near the clinic, to get some air." Maia starts to walk and then turns. "Thank you, for helping me."

"No problem." John tucked them under his arm and slung his bag over his shoulder.

"So, um, what happened? To you. I mean, you don't look like you should be moving much. Not that it's stopping you, of course. I mean, if it's not prying."

Maia frowns a bit as they walk through the doorway. "I don't know really what happened. I-I don't remember a lot of it. I think I was in my room and then everything was dark, for days. I heard someone say I was in the dark for 11 days or something like that." Maia looks down at her arms where the bruises were. "I think I look worse then I feel. I'm just, I'm tired, kinda like I've had the flu for a really long time you know." Maia smiled "Your not prying at all. My turn though, what bit you?"

"Well, glad I'm not prying. Um. I think it was a tick or something. I'm not sure. It happened this weekend."

Maia looked at him. "Where did you go? To get a tick on you. They don't bit you know, they are actually there under your skin."

"I..."

John paused.

"I had a rough coulple of weeks. I decided to take the weekend off. In the woods."

Maia frowned. "Yeah, I've had a rough couple weeks myself." She then smiled softly at John. "I hope everything is all better now though."

"I... don't think that it will get better. It'll just get... I don't even know the words, but it'll just get. And I hope you get better. Or at least some fake tan stuff."
John smiles a goofy smile.

Maia laughs a real laugh for the first time since before she was in the coma. "Oh damn do I look that bad?" Maia laughs "I usually am much darker then this."

"You look like the twin to the gal in Ethics. Definitely needs a big ol' bottle of Fake'n'Bake, she does. You, I don't think it's permanent."

Maia laughs again "No not permanent, in fact after some fresh air and out in the sun for a few days I'll be back to my normal healthy skin tone I think." *smiles* "Is ethics good? I havent been able to go obviously." *smiles again*

"Ethics is... Well, it's kinda quirky, but interesting. You should go."

"Yeah I plan on it. I think I'll be able to start back to classes in a few days. Ta- Ms. Maclay is really nice."

"You take care of yourself. Or figure out a way to hang a bookbag on that sickpole if you're gonna continue dragging it with you."

He held out her books and papers, with a goofy smile.
