Three- Scarlett

 We were forced to leave the room for emergency surgery for Emily's internal bleeding. The entire time we were in the waiting room I had my head on Kai's shoulder waiting for any kind of news. He turned towards me, wiping the tear off my face with his thumb. I heard a voice behind me making me quickly turn around, 

"The surgery was a success and Emily is resting" I jumped up rushing to the room. Her eyes were slowly opening while I walked in. 

I rushed to her side making sure she was ok.

 "That hurt like a bitch" She uttered sarcastically. 

"You're not funny, you scared the living shit out of me missy '' She could tell I wasn't in a joking mood. 

"I knew you would say that you hard ass" Mason responded to Emily with a smirk as he stood to come to Emily's bedside like I was. 

"What happened.?" Kai had an angry tone and was not happy about the situation.

 "I voiced my opinion on a matter at dinner last night out of rage and annoyment with my father and had to pay for my outburst." I started tearing up just from her talking about it. I am a tough person but when it comes to Emily I get worried. 

"I woke up next to the blood from my nose and tried to stand up but got dizzy and almost threw up." Kai grabbed my hand, giving me comfort.

 "I tried to stand up but my knee started to hurt really bad and I collapsed again. I tried again and eventually made it to the stairs. I was in so much pain at this point I couldn't make it to my phone so I risked it and instructed Chase to go retrieve my phone. That's when I called Mason." I looked over at Mason who looked angry. 

"Well good thing you only fractured your knee and didn't seriously break it" I told her as I grabbed her hand.

"I guess you can thank our father for that" She muttered as she grabbed her stomach in pain. I jumped up worried as Kai grabbed my waist leading me towards the door. 

"We'll give you some space." We made it out of the room as he hugged me from behind kissing my head. 

We sat down on a couch in the hallway with his arm wrapped around me. I felt safe in his arms. Last thing I remember was drifting away into my dreamworld safe in his arms, all my doubt and worry floating away into an abyss.

My eyes slowly opened as I felt movement. 

"Shhh it's ok were at the house i'm taking you upstairs." I smiled and snuggled into his chest. I quietly giggled hoping he wouldn't hear.

"What are you giggling about?" I scrunch my eyebrows.

"Shhh I'm trying to sleep" I said in a play tone drifting back into my dream world. I felt my back hit a soft surface with blankets covering me up. Once his hand left my back I grabbed it. He turned around laughing.

"Stay with me." He climbed into the bed pulling me close to him. 

"I love you." He started laughing at my sleepy voice.

 "Hey don't make fun of me." Now I'm laughing. 

"Ok, go back to sleep, you need some rest." I stick my tongue out at him.

 "You don't tell me what to do." He put a smirk on his face. 

"Is that a challenge?" I surrendered and rolled over. He pulled me into him kissing the top of my head. My eyes closed and I drifted off to sleep.

I hear a thud and my warm safe space leaves my side. I slowly sat up but he didn't notice.

 "Your lucky Scarlett is asleep. Your little incident almost put her into a breakdown." I heard from a distance. 

The conversation went faint as they got quieter. I looked over to the bedside table to look for my phone. Lucky enough it was there. I picked it up, noticing it was almost 10 pm. Kai walked back into the room not realizing I was awake. 

"Where did you go?" He sat back down on the bed next to me. 

"Nowhere Just to get a glass of water." I hated when he lied to me. 

"Kai Diaz don't you dare lie to me." He sighed. 

"Emily had a little fall, I was just helping her." I jumped out of the bed. 

"Is she ok?!" He grabbed my hand. 

"Yes she is ok Mason is with her." I nodded my head sitting back down. 

"Your sister is a very tough girl when it comes to pain." I chuckled. 

"Trust me I know but I still worry about her." He started playing with my hair. 

"Everything will be back to normal soon." I laughed at his comment. 

"It's never normal here." He held me against him. 

I felt safe in his arms. I knew nothing would happen. 

"You'll get used to it." I chuckled slightly. 

"Not with my dad around." He sighed slightly. 

"If he ever lays a hand on you I will hunt him down and kill him." I looked up at him. 

"Oh yeah Mr. Tough guy?" He got out of the bed now standing in front of it. 

"Like this." He pulled his fist in the air while punching it acting like it was my dad. 

He grabbed a knife from his pocket and "stabbed him." By that time I was laughing at his movements. 

"Oh Mr. Tough Guy got moves." He jumped back in bed pulling me back into him. 

"Ok go back to sleep, it's almost 10:30 you were up all night last night." He was right. 

I didn't sleep last night but there was more going on than usual and there was too much on my mind. I stared into his handsome blue eyes before drifting off to sleep.
