I stood by the door as I watched Kenny snuggle a sleeping David. She hugged onto his arm and fell asleep. Doctor Spencer allowed her in there after they finished the blood transfusion procedure. Kenny was being brave while I was holding her and asking the nurse questions every step of the way.
Sofia and Mason had left to go and get some stuff for us back the house so we could stay here with him.
I haven't stepped a foot in the room yet as my heart was beating too fast. I felt abit dizzy too but I ignored it as I just needed to make sure that they were doing okay.

"He is just sleeping" I glanced around at the man that has been pulling the strings the whole night. "Your parents are on a flight heading out here. I would suggest you get some sleep". I turned my attention back to Kenny and David. "They are a cute duo to watch. I admire how much you two fought to stay together. For the sake of your daughter". I glanced over at him again.

He wasn't intimidating but he seemed as if he had something to say. He wasn't looking at me as he spoke. His eyes were glued to the sleeping people in the room.

"I would wait until David wakes up to fix certain issues that surrounds this incident but....."

"Are you trying to make a reference about me and Kenny plus the questions that the media might be asking? I think my answer and David's would be the same when I say....We dont care what anybody thinks of our relationship" I turned to face him as he finally looked at me. His brown eyes captured the light within the hallway.

He sighed and chuckled alittle.

"And I didnt doubt that one bit Mrs Fletcher. He will play football regardless of his personal life. I just wanted to make sure that everyone was on the same page." He removed his jacket and placed it over his arm as he pushed his hair away from face. "I'll be back in few minutes. I still need to make a public statement about the incident along with his coach as he is going to need to recover for the new season. Just take care of yourself Miss Fletcher." He pat my shoulder as he walked by.

I stood there for awhile before I turned my attention back to the sleeping people in the room.

I was sure about David. There was no doubt in my mind that he loved Kenny and I. But what if everyone reacted to us the same way mom did? What if it does affect David's career too? And the media started digging up information on our past. Our love story didnt have the best start especially with the people we hurt just so that we could be together.

I shook my head as I walked into the room and closed the door behind me. I had Kenny's jacket in my arm so I walked over to her and placed it over her. I brushed her hair from her forehead before I placed a soft kiss there.

My gaze slowly moved across David's face. He did look as if he was sleeping. I stood there for a minute as I watched his chest rise and fall. I hated hospitals but I hated seeing him, just laying here. With a tube in his arm and tubes by his nose.

What if he doesnt wake up? What if he...

I could feel my body starting to tremble. My heart started drumming against in my chest again. I closed my eyes to try and keep the tears in.

There was no way he wasnt going to wake up. Especially now, we just started making up after 5 years of ignoring each other. I just got him back, why would the universe want to take him from me again. Why do we have to keep fight so hard to just be happy together?

I opened my eyes and brought my folded fist to my chest. The ring on my finger caught my attention and the pain in my chest was instant. I shook my head as I glanced over David again. "Please wake up!" I whispered. I reached over and to place my hand on his cheek but stopped before I could.
