Jensen glanced over his shoulder. Jacquelyn hurried by without noticing he was in there. That was a relief, but when he saw the officer wince as he shifted in bed, his heart went out to him. He shouldn't have ducked in here to hide. He should have come in here willingly seeking to help.
He put on a smile and sat down in a visitor's chair. Sitting might put the person in a hospital bed at ease while standing might seem authoritative or rushed. Jensen was neither.
"You could say that I'm making the rounds. I used to visit hospitals often,"
he scratched his forehead and briefly looked aside, "but it's been a while."
His palms had stopped sweating by then, and surprisingly, he wasn't as tired as he used to be after using the gift's powers. "So what happened to you? If I may ask, of course. I understand police business is tricky to speak about, what with ongoing investigations and such."
He scanned the officer as he laid there but didn't let his eyes linger too long. He didn't want to seem pushy.
