Barbie's POV

"It's good to see you're awake now, Miss. Roberts," the doctor said as he examined me.

Yeah....good to be alive I guess.

"Everything seems to be fine. You'll be discharged tomorrow," he continued, "However you need to come here regularly for the next month to check your injuries and change your bandages. We don't want the wounds to get infected."

I groaned in frustration.
Ugh! Go figure!

"Every week, you're going to get physical therapy. And every three days you'll come for an overall checkup."

I sighed..
Great! Just great!

I looked to the side to see my parents. I managed to smile weakly.
I mean things could've been way worse.

"And for now the wounds need to be checked....so the bandages must be removed....for now."

I rolled my eyes and scoffed.
"Yeah sure....go ahead and mumify me then," I replied sarcastically.
At that everyone in the room laughed...even the doctor.

Grandpa patted my shoulder and chuckled. "Good to see you haven't lost your sense of humor."

I smiled and shrugged.
Just seeing my family and my friends safe and sound was just enough.

The doctor stepped back.

"Alright....in 20 minutes a nurse will come to give you your meds. You're going to rest and then you'll be transferred to another room."

With that the doctor turned around and faced others.
"Visiting hours are over for now."

My mom kissed me on my forehead before heading towards the door with my dad and my grandfather.

"Can he stay a little bit longer please?" I pleaded with the doctor as I grabbed at Ken's hand.

The doctor frowned. He clearly was going to say ‘no’....but upon seeing our pleading looks he just sighed and rolled his eyes.

"Alright fine," he replied.

I smiled happily as I glanced at my boyfriend.
With that the doctor walked towards the door and left.

"Well.....How are you feeling?" Ken asked, "After everything that had happened."

I couldn't help but laugh at his shy attempt to start a conversation.
Ken blushed and he looked absolutely adorable.

I sighed as I smiled and took a deep breath.

"To be honest, I feel....relieved," I replied, "The past couple months was really hard and stressful. It's like a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders."

Ken chuckled as he stroke my hair with one hand and holding my hand tightly with the other one.

"But what am I going to do now?" I frowned, "Dunbar may be arrested for now...but what about the rest of his associates or people who work for him? What about Gama?!"

Ken lifted up my chin. I stared into his loving eyes and smiled.

"Barbie....we can handle it," he replied encouragingly, "We faced a lot together. When the right time comes, you'll do what's necessary. And for now...let's just let others handle everything. Let's live life."

I quickly grabbed at his shirt with both hands and pulled him into a deep kiss..
Then I felt his arms wrap around my waist.

"I'm so blessed to have you as my girlfriend," Ken whispered against my lips, "I love you so much, Barbie.... you're my whole world."

I brushed his fluffy hair with my hands and smiled.
"I love you, too," I whispered...I closed my eyes, enjoying
The two of us could stay in that position forever.

"Ahem!"

Ken quickly stepped back and we looked at the direction of the door.....there was a nurse with her arms crossed.
She smirked.

I couldn't help but blush that we were caught.
I glanced timidly at Ken who was also blushing.

"If you two are done, it's time for your lunch and medicine, Miss. Roberts."

Ken grabbed at my arm and helped me to sit up.
She handed me the tray of food, the pills and a glass of water.

"If you need anything, push this button right here," the nurse sighed.
I smiled sheepishly and nodded in understanding.
With that the nurse left.

I looked down at the tray....it was some spaghetti and meatballs with a bowl of yogurt.

Spaghetti was one of my favorite meals...but this one....It didn't look that great.
I mean it's an average hospital meal.

"Now that I think of it....I'm not really hungry," I chuckled nervously.

Ken however saw right through it.

"Come on, Barbie...you have to eat before taking your medicine," then he smirked, "How about I feed it to you?"

With that he picked up the fork. He held up the fork.
I blushed at the thought of it.

"Open up, my love."

I couldn't help but chuckle and roll my eyes.
But at the end I gave in....letting him feed me.

I had to admit....It felt amazing.

"Alright....time for your medicine."

With that he handed me the pills and the glass of water.
After I drank the water, Ken helped me to lie down on the bed.

After some time I was starting to get sleepy.
It's probably the effects of the pills.

"You get some rest, okay? I'll see you later."

With that he bent down and kissed me again.
And then he headed towards the door.

Once the door was closed I sighed, feeling so much better.
I got comfortable on the bed and then fell asleep.

Time Skip
Two hours later

"Hey....wake up, sleepyhead!"

I grunted in protest...but I was up anyway.
I opened my eyes and looked to my side.

"Cass?" I called. I frowned worriedly, "Why are you here...hospitalized?"

Cassandra just shrugged as if it wasn't a big deal.
"Hey, roomie.....Right after you were stabbed, Dunbar shot me....in the chest," she replied.

I gasped in shock.
I tried to sit up.

"I'm okay now... don't worry. I'll be going home today," she offered a smile. But then she frowned worriedly, "The important question....is how are you?"

I shrugged my shoulders and smiled weakly.
"On the bright side at least I'm alive," I chuckled dryly, "And I'm going home tomorrow.

Cassandra grunted frustratedly as she laid back down on her bed.

"You're so lucky......When I go home, won't be allowed to do anything," she sighed and pouted, "My mom already visited and told me that I have to rest until I fully recover."

I shook my head and laughed at her antics.
It's good to be back to normal life...or as normal as it can get
