Coop was seated at the island table while Laura was in the office talking on the phone with a detective. "I want those girls found asap. Their names are Rochelle Mosley and Alicia Dyer" Coop pulled out her phone and held it to her ear. Patience walked downstairs seeing Laura in the office on the phone with the detective. She was furious and wanted those girls questioned at the police station. Patience walked to the kitchen but stopped when she heard Coop on the phone. "Please tell me you had nothing to do with Liv being in the hospital. Mrs. Baker doesn't play when it comes to family. If you had something to do with this, you're going down" she warned. Patience folded her arms feeling frustrated with Coop. "I hope you're telling the truth. I have to go.." she ended the call. Patience was shaking her head in disbelief. "You will never learn" Coop looked over her shoulder surprised to see Patience. "Patience.." she stood up not knowing what to say. "Who was that on the phone with you? Cause it couldn't been Alicia because you wouldn't do that to Spence and Olivia, right? Especially Spencer since he's your so called best friend. You wouldn't betray him by warning Alicia and Rochelle about Mrs. Baker coming for them while his girlfriend is laid up in the hospital" she was furious. "We don't know for sure if it was them" Patience shook her head in disbelief. "I'm so disgusted by you. Why the fuck would you call them? You need to keep your goddamn nose out of grown folks business" Coop felt disrespected. "So I'm not grown now? It's not like me calling them would change anything. If they did it, then they're going down simple as that. What is the problem?" Coop was so oblivious to what she was doing. "The problem is you betraying my family" Coop watched Laura walk in. "Mrs. Baker I—" Laura cut her off. "You need to leave Coop" Laura couldn't look at her. "You need some serious help" Patience turned around and walked out. "Mrs. Baker I'm sorry. I didn't mean no harm. I just wanted to see if they would've gave themselves up. Hell Alicia said her cousin did it. I don't see why she's not being questioned by the police right now" Coop took a few steps towards Laura. "You don't get it. There's no reason for Rochelle to harm Olivia unless Alicia was involved! Have it ever occurred to you that this woman would do anything in her power to removed Olivia from Spencer's life?! It's fatal attraction but you wouldn't know anything about that because you're too busy in everyone's business. You need to leave right now" Coop frowned as she walked passed Laura. Laura was disappointed in Coop. The door closed with her letting out a shaky sigh.

~At the hospital~

Spencer came out of the restroom in Liv's hospital room. "You know you can go home, right?" He looked at her confused to why she would want him to leave. "I mean, you don't have to stay here all day. You already slept here last night..." he walked over and sat down on the side of the bed. "And I'll sleep here tonight and tomorrow night and the next night. As long as you're here Liv, I'm staying. My moms and Dillon is bringing my clothes. You're not getting rid of me" a smile formed on her face. "I don't want you to leave. Just don't want you to feel obligated to stay..." he pressed his finger against her lips. "You're talking too much baby. I'm not going anywhere" he moved his finger from her lips. "You better have washed your hands or I'm kicking your ass when I heal" he chuckled. "Nah I just whipped it back in my pants and came out... of course I washed my hands girl, quit playing" she giggled. "I love you" she held his hand. "I love you too" he brought her hand to his lips, kissing it. A knock on the door caused them to look up seeing Dillon and Grace walk in. "I got your clothes like you asked bro. How you feeling Liv?" She gave Dillon a smile. "I'm okay. I try to stay positive. It could've been worse... I'm just glad I have you guys as my support system. I wouldn't know what to do without you" she said. "Well as far I know, you're my future sister in law. I got you no matter what. You make my bro happy and that means the world to me" Spencer started smiling as he watched Liv and his brother having a little bro and sis romance. "We have your back always, Olivia. You're a strong soul. And not to mention being your future mother in law would be an honor" Olivia couldn't stop smiling. "I feel a little pressured" Spencer joked. "Better get to ring shopping bro" Dillion teased. "Yeah and you coming with me"

All this talk about mines and Liv's future together as husband and wife was getting me excited. If this situation tells me anything, it tells me that life is too short. I could've lost Liv as much as I don't wanna think about it. She was left to die. But my girl is a warrior. God had better plans for the both of us. Our story doesn't end at Layla's mansion. Watching her with Dillon and my moms gave me clarity.

"Are y'all leaving any time?" He asked his brother and his mom. "Why, trying to get rid of us already?" He chuckled and shook his head. "Nah, I just need to step out real quick. I have something to do" he said. "I thought you weren't leaving?" He looked at Olivia realizing he promised her he wouldn't leave until she gets released. "I know but I have something important to do. I promise I won't be long" he leaned towards her. "It's something for us" she looked at him with confusion. "Trust me" he chuckled before kissing her. "I trust you, just missing you already and you haven't even left" Dillon joking made a gaging noise. "Gross get a room" he joked. "We're in it" Spelivia said. "Now I can bring you some real food back if you'd like? Whatever you want" he said. "I'm craving a strawberry shake, not gonna lie" he chuckled. "I'll get you one on the way back baby" he kissed her forehead before leaving. "Let's pray that he's not going to look for Alicia and her cousin" Dillon said. "Why would you say that?" He shrugged. "Just a thought" Grace looked at Olivia who looked down. "He wouldn't do that Olivia" she looked up at Grace. "I know... I'm just worried about him. I don't want him to blame himself. You know how Spencer gets. He's hard on himself. But I also hope they get arrested" Grace nodded in agreement. "We all do. And it's a matter of time before they will. Laura will be sure to make it happen. But you don't worry about that. You just heal up so that you can show off those dance moves that I've been desperate to see" Grace cheered her up. "Thank you" she gave Liv a nod. "Anytime."
