She wasn't asleep when he got there, despite people telling her to get rest. They got a raised eyebrow and an annoyed silence from her and eventually, doctors and nurses stopped staying anything to her at all about it. When Rocky got there, she felt it and felt whole again. Her kind don't do well when their other half is far away, so the second he was close enough, Charlie wrapped her arms around him, letting the hand with the IV drop to the mattress.
It was so tempting to take it out, but then she'd have to explain how that healed up fast and no thank you.
So she left it and held Rocky close, closing her eyes and willing her muscles to relax.
There's a moment when someone comes in, one of the many doctors checking on her, but Charlie sends them a glare and they back out, understanding this was a bad time.
"I want to go home." That's all Charlie has to say about this.
