Happier Than Ever (Adoption story, 3rd book)

What's Next?

EMMY POV
I wake up the next day puking my brains out. The doctor said it's the side effects of me getting off my pain meds.

The medication finally wore off and now I'm back in pain. They give me my breakfast and medication. Dad spoon fed me. After that a nurse helps me change and I've been discharged so I get to go home now yay.

As we finally reach home. Brendon takes his old wheelchair out and places me into it for the meantime. Then Brendon starts to push me into the house but he is going so fast. That the wheels were gliding against the wooden floor and then crashed into the damn couch with me in it.

"BRENDON" Sarah shouts at him.

Brendon rushes over and lifts up the wheelchair from on top of me and places it to the side. Sarah then sits on the ground besides me and scoops me into her lap.

"Hey honey, are you okay? Are you feeling better?" She asks me as she tucks my hair behind my ears.

"I'm okay, luckily can't feel a thing but probably get a few bruises" I say trying to make it look on the good sides.

Brendon then scoops me and lays me on the couch. He sits besides me and helps adjust me so that I lay my head in his lap. He casually runs his fingers through my hair until I fall asleep.

I finally wake up, but now I'm in bed. I look around and see that it's 6pm.

"Good morning sunshine" Awsten says kissing me on the forehead and setting the flowers he got me on my bedside table.

Awsten helps me sit up. "So how's life treating you?" I ask Awsten.

"Nothing new.. just working on music and looking for tour. How are you feeling?" Awsten asks me.

"I'm just tired. Probably groggy because of the medication." I explain and Awsten nods.

"Wanna watch a movie?" Awsten asks me.

"Sure" I say. Awsten runs downstairs and pop some popcorn. Then he runs back into my room, searching through Netflix to look for something to watch.

We eventually landed on From Scratched on Netflix.

As we are on the third episode there is a knock on the door.

"Oh hello sleepy head. Umm here's your popcorn that you left in the kitchen" Brendon says coming in with a bowl of popcorn.

"Whatcha watching?" Brendon asks.

"From Scratched" Awsten says.

"Oo what is it about?" Brendon asks.

"It's a romance type of show" I say.

"Oh did not dig you as a romance type of guy" Brendon says to Awsten.
"Ohh that... I'm watching this because Emmy suggested it so here I am" Awsten explains. "Well then I'll leave you out for it.. also Emmy take your meds" Brendon says popping the pills into my mouth.

A few hours later, we finally finish the show. Awsten and I are crying our eyes out.
"I love you baby don't leave me" Awsten says hugging me tighter and kissing me. "I love you too babe" I say kissing him back. Awsten comes over and wipes my eyes away.

Awsten gets up, "I'm hungry.. want dinner?" Awsten asks and I hum. He picks me up and brings me to the restroom to use. After he picks me up and carries me down the stairs. He sets me at the table, where I slump down.

AWSTEN POV
I'm now cooking up dinner for Emmy and I. I feel so bad for Emmy she can't do anything by herself anymore and knowing her she loves to do things herself just like Brendon.

Now she just lost her independence. I whip up some pasta for us to eat. I plate it and bring over to the table.

I go over and places the dishes down. I can't find Emmy and it's not like she can go anywhere.

"Em? Where are you?" I ask worriedly.

"Umm I'm down here" I hear Emmy mumble. I lift up the table cloth and find Emmy laying on the ground.

"Oh gosh!! I'm so sorry baby" Awsten says crouching down and carrying me to the chair again. He sits besides me and feeds me while he eats it too.

Then he puts away our dishes and Carries me up the stairs again.
This time he's giving me a bath as he sits behind me to give me support so I lay on his chest. As he finishes, He drains the water out and gets out and wrap a towel around his waist and then helps put a robe on me and carry me to my bed.

He leans me up against the headboard and get dressed himself before helping me put on my clothes. He puts me in some comfy pj pants and his gray hoodie.

He then lays in bed besides me and falls asleep, with me wrapped in his arms.

I lay there staring at the light shining through my curtains.

I wake up refreshed. I don't see Awsten in bed. "Em are you awake?" Brendon asks barging into my room.

"Good morning sweetie" he says. "Hi dad! Do you know where Awsten went?" I ask him and Brendon shrugs.

"Can you check my phone if I got any messages?" I ask him. He looks at my messages.

"Umm it's mainly get well messages.. oh Awsten said he'll be back soon, he left for the studio to record his new album" Brendon tells me.

"So what's up?" I ask dad.

"Oh your physical therapist is here to help you. Shall I send her in?" Brendon asks.

"Yes" I say.
