Unexpected Reunion

We Are Alive!

    I could hear beeping and I opened my eyes.  Wait I'm alive, what the hell?  I thought that I got shot!  When I looked around, I saw I was in a hospital room.  I saw Damon sitting next to my bed with his head down and resting on his arms.

 I reached up and ran my hands through his hair. He looked up at me.  When he saw I was awake he stood up and placed his one hand on my head and the other on my hands.

"Saint, oh thank god.  You scared me a little bit!  Please tell me you are ok!"  I nodded my head.

"Yes, I am ok.  Although I want to work in a hospital, not keep waking up in one!"  He laughed and then kissed my forehead.  

"Damon, what happened?  I mean, I thought that she shot me."  He sat back down and grabbed my hand in his.

"That's what I thought too.  Ava called me saying how once you were gone, we could be together.  My men were following her and lost track of her for a bit.  When they were looking for her, they came across your car. 

 I was freaking out, I mean I thought we wouldn't make it to you in time.  I heard the horses in the background, so I knew where you guys were.  When I got there, I saw her pointing the gun at you and I didn't hesitate, I fired my gun."

I nodded my head. "That would explain hearing the gunshot.  I guess it scared me to the point I fainted."  I reached up to Damon and wrapped my arms around his neck while he wrapped his arms around my middle.

"Thank you for saving me, Damon, again."  He tightened his arms around me.

"No need to thank me. I would do anything for you Saint."  

I don't know how long we stayed like that, but he finally pulled away and lightly kissed my lips. 

"How about I run to Starbucks and get you a giant chocolate chip Frappuccino?"  That made me excited.

"That would be amazing!"  He stood up and leaned down one more time and kissed my forehead. 

"I will be right back then."

"Thank you, Damon."  He waved me off. "Like I said I would do anything for you, even get you the unhealthiest drink in the world!"

I crossed my arms. "Hey, it's a guilty pleasure, I can't help it, it's like crack!"  He laughed and started walking towards the door. When he opened it, Sharon was standing there.

She kissed Damon's cheek and rushed over to me. "Oh, my sweet girl!  Please tell me you are alright!"

I hugged her while I answered.  "Yes, I am ok.  Damon saved my life, again. But I feel fine, just a little headache is all."  

Just then the doctor walked in and he knocked on the door. "How are we feeling young lady?"

"I'm ok, ready to get out of here already."  I watched as he read my chart.

"After reading your chart, everything checks out.  You have a few bumps and bruises and a slight concussion, those abrasions on your wrists will heal in no time. But I don't see why you can't go home today.  Also, the fetus seems healthy, no harm there. You have a strong little guy or gal in there. So, you both are great!"

He looked up from the chart and was smiling.

I couldn't believe what he just said, he must have made a mistake. "I'm sorry could you repeat that please?"

He looked up at me.  "You both are doing great and ready to go home."

I waved my hand. "No, the part before that!"  Sharon placed her hand on my shoulder to calm me down.
