He's awake before she's finished moving and it's the words that make him stop. Because he could make this worse or he could make this better and he's not sure which action causes which effect.

He has to try, though. He can't just let her sit there, terrified. A hand on her knee. "Allison?"

"Don't." Not to him. Not to him at all. "Stop. It hurts." And her voice breaks at that, right there. And her leg aches and it burns. Everything aches.

But she doesn't. She doesn't look at him. It's possible she doesn't even hear him. She's fairly unresponsive, and shaking.
