I sighed and removed my glasses to clean the lenses..it was the one thing I was certain I couldn't do wrong.
"If you would like I shall go hunt down a doctor."
I suggested, though I didn't wait for an answer. I went in search of a doctor of some sort to tell me something other than a doctor will be out to speak to us later.
I finally found one after about 20 minutes and talking to about 6 different nurses. I led him back to Mrs Summers where he began to explain the extent of her injuries.
The Doctor explained that Buffy was on transfusions and they stiched where the stake was. They also had many questions about how this happened. I told a quick she must have been mugged lie. I couldn't allow Joyce to tell the doctor the truth. She seemed as if she already had an idea, but I was not about to be the one that told her if she didn't.
"How long will she need to stay?" I finally asked. The doctor said she wasn't sure, that she would do some tests once Buffy had rested. I suppose that is a good plan, it only served to worry Joyce all the more though.
"Should one of us call Xander or Cordelia?" I suggested just as Xander came running in Cordelia in tow. "Or not"
"What happened? Did dead boy do this?" Xander exclaimed as he rushed in. "Where is he, I will go kill him myself."
