"Ainsley!" I hear someone yelling. I open my eyes to find a bloody, beaten Alex. He lets out a sigh of relief as he sees me wake up. "You're alive." He says, smiling. His eyes have the gleam of a broken, beaten man, yet he's peaceful.

"Alex." I manage to say, sitting up. My head throbs and my vision blurs a bit. Alex steadies me with his hand.

"Don't get up too fast." He tells me with a chuckle. I smirk and close my eyes, trying to regain my vision. "You hit your head pretty hard." He comments, examining my head for any bad injuries. I push his hand away and look into the darkness.

"Where is he?" I ask, looking back at Alex.

"At the hospital. But don't worry, he's going to prison." Alex replies, helping me stand up. I get to my feet, but I have to close my eyes to stop from passing out. I can't see anything--it's all too blurry. I blindly reach for his hand, and he leads me upstairs slowly. "Don't worry, I've got you." He tells me, and I can hear a smile in his voice. "I'm taking you to the hospital. You need help." He says as we reach the top.

I open my eyes and look at him. It hurts my head, but I look at his eyes. He doesn't want anything to go wrong. I nod. "Okay. I need to see Sean anyways." I smirk.

He calls the ambulance, since he can't drive. I fall asleep while waiting, and I don't remember the ride to the hospital. I don't know what happened at the hospital. They gave me medicine, and I blacked out.

--

I slowly wake up, the white hospital lights blinding me. I sit up slowly and rub my eyes, then look around the room. I'm alone. I look at my hands. How long was I asleep? I have IVs in my hand, and a ring. A ring? I didn't have a ring on.

The door startles me, but Sean walks in, holding a bundle in his arm, and a bouquet of flowers in the other. He smiles as he sees that I'm awake. "Hey, Ainsley." He whispers. I smile at him. "Just wanted to say happy valentine's day from my family. I was just going to leave the flowers, but you're awake. Congrats, by the way." He says, walking into the room. Congrats on what? He sets the flowers on a table, which already has a huge teddy bear, a big vase of flowers, and balloons.

"Who are those from?" I ask, looking at then table.

"Uh," He begins, but the bundle begins crying. Bundle? Baby. A baby. When did he have a baby? "Oh, my bad." He says, rocking the baby in his arms. "I knew I should've left him with my girlfriend." He comments, looking at the infant.

"Girlfriend?" I ask, looking at him. I didn't mean to ask outloud.

"Yeah, Emilee." He says, looking at me. I don't know an Emilee. "Bee?" He adds, trying to help me remember.

Bee? I thought I was his girlfriend..? I look at the ring on my finger. So who gave me the ring? "Oh, yeah, I remember now." I lie. The door opens again, and in walk Alex and Mitch. 

"Ainsley!" Mitch smiles and walks over to my bed, gently giving me a hug. He smells good. He releases his hug and sits on the couch on the other side of the room.

"Hey, babe." Alex says, smiling. He walks over and gives me a kiss. Sparks. I felt them. Babe?

"Hey." I reply with a smile.

"You've been out for a while. You passed out after Julie was born, and you've been out since." He says, sitting on my bed. "Two months. She's gotten big."

"Julie?" I question. Who the heck is Julie?

And, Alex went into story-telling mode. He tells me that we've been engaged for a while, ever since we found out I was pregnant. We were dating for a year, after the encounter with Max, I broke up with Sean when he was healthier because of everything that had happened. Julie was born on December 15. I had complications from the birth, and the trauma caused me to go into a coma.

"I'm missing a year of my life." I told him as he finished. "I don't remember anything."

"Oh, but darling, the best life is only just beginning." He smirks.

"The best life?"

"Our life together. All the memories that will be made, all the times we'll argue, all the videos we'll record, Julie growing up. It won't be easy, but it'll be worth it."
