Ian woke to the quiet of an empty suite. He waited for Mina for a long time, wanting to tell her that she was right; the broth did not hurt his stomach, but minutes turned to hours, and he finally mustered the courage to knock on her door. He knocked harder and harder, until he was sure no one was in the room, and when he opened it, Mina was gone, and so were the clothes that he had picked out for her.
Ian found himself angry that he had slept in, but he had very good dreams with Mina being the main star, and he was unwilling to wake up. He called Drax, who answered with a groggy voice, and asked for Mills. Drax told him that Mills was resting, and Ian felt his heart sink. He quickly ended the call and dialed Mina's number, hoping that she would answer.
