It was obviously not a calm day in the hospital Claire noticed as she had come walking into the Emergency Room, looking around for some help but there had apparently been quite the big car crash downtown involving multiple vehicles and people involved so it had quickly enough turned out that for the doctors at least it was one chaotic day of work already.
It had been some more waiting after that on one of the waiting chairs in the waiting room, holding the new one miserable piece of tissue the woman behind the counter had given her for her bloody nose to her nose and looking around, noticing how some of the other people that were waiting were looking at her, obviously trying to figure out what was wrong with her.
It had been quite the afternoon for Claire even before all this, she had passed a test so she was happy about that, her homework had been done a little too quickly for her liking but okay, at least that was a worry less before she would quickly enough get new homework of course. But most importantly it had been the demon that had attacked her as soon as she was a few minutes away from the library where she had gotten a new book, like almost always knowing exactly which book she wanted and where to find it, and had surprised her so much that he had gotten the drop on her.
Claire decided that she could re-run the entire fight again for the 100th time already in her head, but that wouldn't change anything, she had multiple bruises, a strained wrist probably, a bloody nose, and a very ugly cut on her other arm where her wrist was mostly okay from the athame she had used to protect herself, luckily having it with her, but had cut herself eventually as she was fighting the demon off and protecting herself. So here she was, with some tears in her clothing, blood on some places and a still bleeding nose and cut foremost.
So she was relieved when finally someone quickly called her name, told her to wait in an empty room and she took place on the bed, dangling her legs over the edge and letting her eyes wander around the room, trying to figure out what they used this room for most of the time. Because honestly, she might be somewhat of a nerd or whatever people might call her for loving to study and even sometimes make homework, she had watched enough TV and hospital shows to be wondering such things. She wasn't really sure what, or mostly who, she was exactly waiting for here, and whatever the reason was anyway for just moving her from one waiting place to the other, but on the other hand, at least she didn't have those eyes pointed at her and knowing they were trying to figure her out.
At least she was happy that her athame and her knowledge and all that about magic had helped her out to at least not get killed or something, so she did have a bright side to look at, but every time she thought about that she realized that she better hope Eli didn't find out about this until she was healed mostly again, and since she wasn't immobilized or whatever, she had decided even before she had arrived at the hospital that she wouldn't call Eli or her parents about this and take care of it herself. So she tried to stay patient, sitting and still slightly moving her legs one by one from up to down and eventually also started tapping both her hands on the side of the bed to at least have something to do while she was waiting for a doctor, or even nurse, at least someone medical to come and help her before she would still bleed out, even with the pressure on both her nose and the ugly and deep cut. 'Yeah... Any day now..' She mumbled at the same time in herself, looking at a random place, not even wanting to constantly look at the door.
