Cai had been starting to feel wired and awful by the time the doctors let him and Val into the ICU to see Danny. He kept wanting to make awful jokes but held back as much as he could around Val, texting most of his thoughts to Zoe instead.

Danny's voice shot a bolt through him anyway, and any thought of sleep retreated at a gallop. "Hey Danny," he said gently, sitting up a bit straighter. "Yeah everything probably does hurt... not surprised ..."
