“N-no hospital.” Her tone was as firm as she could make it. “Th-this is norm-normal.” The hospital wouldn’t have any idea what to do with it anyway. They’d give her a muscle relaxant, which would possibly ease the tremors, but wouldn’t do a thing for the cause, and there was no explaining the cause to a nurse. Sometimes it helped if she could relax and just let the convulsion flow through her, not try to fight it, but she was afraid of Isaac’s reaction and that just made it worse.

You’ve never acted like this in front of me before…” he murmured dubiously and twisted to face her fully, car keys dangling from his pinky finger whilst it was clear that he wouldn’t move until he was satisfied with her answer. “Did…was it some kind of seizure? Did that freak say something and set you off?”

“I n-never let you s-see it bef-fore,” she corrected. “It’s a k-kind of sei-seizure, y-yeah. C-can we not t-talk about it h-here?” She wanted to lie down so badly, where the seat belt didn’t compress her when the big muscles in her back clenched.
