Nurse Nora

>A pain in your chest wakes you up, and you look down to see your torso wrapped in bandages.
>"Oh, you're awake!"
>You glance over and find a nurse by your side, checking your IV.
>It takes a moment, but you remember what brought you here.
>You were helping your village fend off a Grimm attack, but things didn't go too great.
>The last thing you remember was taking an Ursa swipe to the chest as your Aura ran out.
>Suddenly a finger is pressed to your nose and your snap back to reality.
>"Welcome back to the land of the living."
>You blink and look at the redhead by your side.
>"So you were fighting Grimm, right? That means you're a Hunter, right? Did you go to Beacon too?!"
>You shake your head slowly at her barrage of questions before coughing.
>"Oh, is your throat sore? Ya know what helps my throat? Syrup. Oh, this place has the best syrup! Ya want me to get ya some? I mean, not alone, I'll bring some pancakes too, obviously."
>She bursts into giggles and you shake your head again.
>"Nonsense, I'll go get ya some. It'll help ya for sure, I promise!"
>She skips out of the room, leaving you to wonder what the hell just happened.
>You looked at the clock and saw it was 3 am.
>There's no way she was actually bringing pancakes back.
>Your eyes close, but just before you drift back to sleep, you hear here.
>"I'm baaack!"
>You open your eyes slowly to find her leaning over you with a stack of hotcakes, syrup drenching them.
>You blink, but take the plate reluctantly.
>She beams at you, waiting for your to try them.
>Slowly, you cut off a piece with your fork and stick it in your mouth.
>You chew, giving her a half-hearted smile.
>All you wanted to do was sleep, but you knew she wasn't leaving until you finish your "medicine."
>Soon enough, you swallow the last piece and hold the plate out to her.
>She takes it and giggles, "Should I bring you another dose?"
>You shake your head and mutter, "I just want to sleep."
>She blinks, her smiling fading a moment before she nods, "R-right. Sorry."
>She giggles before walking backwards out of the room, "I'll just let you get back to sleep."
>You close your eyes again.
>This was going to be a long recovery.
