Izzy had left as soon as she could, not even telling James that she was headed to Princeton. It was Pat that had asked her to go, but it probably wouldn't have stopped his questions. Cameron was here. Harri was here. His unborn son was here by default ( ... )

Pat gave her a small smile and nodded. "Better than I was, apparently," he told her. He was speaking a little slower than normal, and the slight slur to his words couldn't be avoided, but even that had improved over the last couple of days. Getting back on his feet was a process, though, and he had been in this place enough to know not to rush it or try to do too much too quickly.

He gestured to the empty seats beside the bed and carefully put the magazine aside so he didn't lose his grip on it. "Thanks for coming, please sit down. I know it was a long drive, but I really appreciate it. I know it can't be easy for you."

Izzy ran her fingers through her hair as her lips twisted into a wry smile. "The drive's never bothered me. I didn't have a problem with it before when me and Cameron were--I still don't have a problem with the drive. You're welcome, anyway. Who wants easy anyway, huh?"

Pat tilted his head just slightly with a wry smile. "I wouldn't mind it, actually," he admitted, only half joking. "I don't remember what easy is."

He adjusted the blanket around his stomach and then sighed softly. "I won't inflict you with painful small talk, darling. I think it would be better for both of us if I just get to the point. I know that Cameron... doesn't have any intentions of stepping up to the plate as a father. I think he's too hurt to even try and he's lying in the comfort zone of trying to convince himself you aren't pregnant by him. But I just wanted to say that I don't have any intentions of following his decision. They're my nieces or nephews, and I want to be involved in their lives."
