Stacey's Pov

Waking up, I roll over to Liam carefully who's still fast asleep and kiss his cheek before climbing off the bed. I stretch my body from the awkward nights sleep and make my way to the kitchen seeing the doctor.
"Good morning Stacey" he says to me with a warm smile and I smile back.
"Morning, can I ask you something?" I ask him and he nods at me.
"How long will he be bed ridden for doc, truthfully?" I ask him and he sighs.
"From my observations, I'd say at least three weeks but it could be longer, his injuries are quite severe right now but the swelling and bruising should go down in the next week or so" he tells me with a sad smile and I nod.
"Thanks for being honest Doc, can I give him a bath today.. He needs one" I ask him and he laughs a little.
"If he's up to it then I don't see why not, just be extra careful with the dressing but I can always redo it if needed" he says and I smile.
"Thanks, how long will the morphine keep him out for, can he eat?" I ask him and he smiles again.
"Yes but nothing to heavy, his stomach has received a lot of damage from the kicking and stomping, but yes, he needs to eat to keep his strength up so make sure he does please even if it's little bits and often. It's better than nothing" he says and I nod again.
"Okay, thank you, how long are you staying for?" I ask and he shrugs.
"It all depends on his recovery, but I should be out of your hair as soon as he's up and moving around" he says and I smile.
"Thank you for everything you're doing for him, he's not the best patient, I know" I tell him smirking and he chuckles.
"I've had worse but I'd be the same, us guys are stubborn when it comes to pain" he tells me and I laugh. He's right about that.
"You can say that again" I laugh and walk to the fridge ready to make some breakfast.
"Scrambled eggs will be okay, right?" I ask him and he nods, smiling.
"Yes it's light and full of nutrition that's good for him and his healing" he says and I pull out the tray walking over to the cooker.
"Great, did you want somet?" I ask him and he shakes his head, holding up his cup.
"Coffees my breakfast, I'll leave you to it. If you need me, I'll be around" he says and strolls off when I nod.

After scrambling a bunch of eggs and eating my toast, I pour Liam's into a bowl and grab a fork. Walking back into the room, I see Liam awake and he smiles noticing me
"I wondered where you went of to, baby" he says and I hold up the bowl.
"Making you breakfast, that prison food couldn't be to nice" I say smirking, sitting next to him.
"It's got nothing on yours beautiful, but I'm not feeling upto eating" he says and I shrug..
"Dont care, doc says you have to, to keep up your strength.. to heal quicker. So you're eating, I'll feed you" I tell him with no room for arguments and he sighs but opens his mouth for me.
"Good boy" I tease and he scoffs at me, raising a brow.
"It's just seasoned scrambled eggs, you don't have to eat it all baby, just some off it.. please for me" I ask him and he finally nods and opens up again.
"Fine, I'll eat, as long as I can have my treasure after" he says and I smirk but feel my cheeks blushing. I've missed my baby.
"Open wide" I tell him and scoop some into his mouth.
"How are you feeling today baby?" I ask him around mouthfuls and he shrugs.
"Still hurts like fuck, but I'll get there beautiful. I promise" he says and I smile as I feed him some more. He has to get better. Nothing can happen to him again. My heart hurts just looking at him like this.
I continue feeding him trying to keep my emotions at bay and he smiles at me making me wanna cry more. I can see the pain in his eye. How do I help him?
I go to offer him more, but he declines, so I drop the fork and kiss him, smiling into it. He ate more than I thought to be honest, I'm happy with that.
"Thank you for eating something baby, I know you didn't really want to, but I appreciate it" I tell him and he nods and leans back into his pillows.
"Plus, doc said, if you want a bath I can do that for you too.. if you're up for it" I tell him and he perks up.
"Absolutely baby, we'll go soon. I want a joint" he complains and I hun getting up and going to my bag pulling another out.
"I knew you'd want one after you woke up so I have one for you" I tell him and he smiles taking the joint.
Putting the bowl down, he pats the bed for me to lay with him so I grab an ashtray and a lighter for him and he passes it back to me.
"You spark it beautiful" he says handing it over.

Laying back, I feel extra high after not smoking for a few days and I'm wondering how Liam's feeling?
"I've missed this, being high with you, kicking back, chilling" he says and suddenly chuckles..
"Whats funny? Weirdo, you're high" I tell him and laugh and he nods, laughing again. Bless him.
"You should of seen Stefan baby, he's like a tank now" he says and my jaw drops
"Wow, what was he even doing in there, he was so good at school unlike some" I look at him raising a brow and he chuckles again.
"He went in for theft of a car after he left school and bulked out a lot. Then he did something inside that he wouldn't tell me so got a longer sentence" he tells me and I sigh, shaking my head.
"I drove your car a lot by the way" I tell him and he raises his brow, smirking.
"Great, I seen the way you drive baby" he says laughing and I look at him shocked, rude much Liam. I smile at him because it's good to see him smile and hear him laugh again after so long of sadness.
"There's nothing wrong with my driving, have you seen your own. You're like a crazed mad man" I tell him laughing and he laughs more then stops, coughing holding his side.
"FUCK dont make me laugh so much it hurts" he says trying not to laugh again.
"But.. now I'm ready for this bath beautiful" he winks at me and I know his game. He's after my treasure..
