"You sure you got it?" EJ asked as he opened the car door for Nova
"I can walk, yes." Nova sighed as she got out his car, their matching sweaters on display in the cold air.
"Did you take your pain meds?" he asked quickly, linking their arms and shutting the door.
"Took my pain meds." Nova confirmed.
"So, I crashed my car and almost died after opening night." Nova spoke as she stood in the snow, looking at the camera men, "I got out of thehospital a few weeks ago and EJ has not left my side. And I mean that as literal as possible."
"How are you feeling? We can cut this short if you wanna go home." EJ spoke as he opened Ashlyns kitchen door open, "Up to you."
"I think i'll be okay." Nova gave him a small smile, "Thanks."
In Novas painful recovery, her and EJ managed to put the awkwardness of what happened at the play aside. He took care of her, didnt let her leave the house or drive a car, but took care of her.
"Oh my god!" Carlos gasped as he saw Nova, "You look so healthy!"
"Feeling better finally." Nova said, accepting his gentle hug.
"School feels so lonely without your political debates in history." Ashlyn hugged her next, "Please tell me you're coming back."
"Ugh, yeah, yeah, I am. I'm still a little sore but the pain kills really help." Nova nodded her head.
"Sorry we're so late. I was volunteering at the soup kitchen with the water polo team then had to get Nova." EJ nodded his head.
Carlos snorted as he held his hand out to Nova, "Pics or it didn't happen."
"Hello, party people." Nova smiled as she walked into the living room.
"Nova! You survived." Gina hugged her, "Have you been in the hospital this whole time?"
"Ugh, no, no, I just needed a little bit to regain reality." Nova said as she leaned on the piano, feeling weaker, "The concussion really hit me pretty hard."
