Y/n pov
I may have done it again, fall asleep without even realising that i had. But i'm not longer cold... i'm actually almost so warm that i could be sweating. But i'm not, i'm comfortable in this position. I feel safe. But it's not an unfamiliar feeling, nor is it like the one of my mother, but the one i've been sleeping next to for years. Not even my back is uncomfortable.
It's different as i'm this timed snuggled up against something hard and warm, and it's holding me close. Her arms holding me even closer as i try to move, and it hurts. Everywhere but where i touch her.
"Shush, shush, you need to lay still sweetheart." Kara's voice whispers comforting into my ear as she holds me so gently. And i don't think anyone has ever held me like she does right now.
"Kara." I almost sob out as i smile against her chest. Even feel as tears fall down my cheeks and her hand moves comforting up and down my back. Her whole body pressed against mine in the way it often is, but this time it's so different. And i don't even know how.
"It's okay, it's all going to be okay." She continues and and i manage to open my eyes to immediately be met by the super symbol. She's still wearing her suit. She'd flown to get me, she found me.
"I knew you'd find me." Because that was all i knew and thought about as i was lying there. It was the only thing i was sure off... she'd find me. Even if she hadn't heard me screaming for her through the wind, i knew in my heart that it would lead her to me.
"Always." She whispers back into my hair and holds me even closer, thought i would have deemed it impossible to do. But it's a place i've never felt more secure and loved.
Letting one last tear slip out before i fall back into a comfortable sleep, i know i mumble the words to her. The ones i've been thinking about for a weeks. All for them to have a different meaning than the last time i said them. "I love you."

The sterile hospital room feels suffocating as i stand beside my mother's bed, her frail form lying motionless beneath the stark white sheets. The antiseptic scent heavy in the air, mingling with the sound of machines beeping rhythmically in the background.
I reach out and take ahold of her hand, the warmth of touch a lifeline in the cold, sterile room. "Mom," i say softly, my voice wavering with emotion. "I'm here. You're going to be okay."
Her eyelids flutter, but she remains still, her breathing shallow and laboured. Panic claws at my chest as i watch her, helpless to do anything to ease her suffering. Like she did for me when i was little.
"We're going to get through this, mom." I continue, my voice trembling as tears blur my vision. "You have to fight. Please, for me."
But she doesn't respond, her eyes closed as if she's drifting in and out of consciousness. The fear and uncertainty that grip me threaten to overwhelm, but i refuse to give in to despair.
"I won't let them take you away," I whisper fiercely, my grip tightening on her hand. "I promise."
As the minutes tick by, i stand vigil by her bedside, my heart heavy with worry. Nurses bustle in and out of the room, their voices hushed as they check her vitals and adjust the monitors.
"She's stable for now." One of the nurses says, her voice gentle as she places a comforting hand on my shoulder. "But she's not out of the woods yet."
I nod, gratitude mingling with the fear that clenches at my heart. "Thank you." I whisper, my voice barely above a whisper.
As the hours stretch on, the hospital room seems to grow dimmer, the only source of light being the soft glow from the bedside lamp. My eyes feel heavy with exhaustion, but i refuse to leave my mother's side.
Suddenly, the door creaks open, and i look up to see Kara and Lena stepping into the room. Relief floods through me at the sight of them, a welcome distraction from the heavy atmosphere of the hospital.
"Hey," Kara says softly, her voice filled with concern as she crosses to room to stand beside me in my wheelchair.
"How's she doing?" Lena asks, her eyes scanning the monitors with a practised eye.
I shake my head, a weight of worry pressing down on me. "Not good," i admit, my voice barely above a whisper. "But i'm not giving up hope."
Kara places a comforting hand on my shoulder, her touch grounding me in the midst of my fear. "We're here for you, whatever you need." She says, her voice steady and reassuring.
Lena nods in agreement, her expression one of determination. "We'll ge through this together." She says, her voice filled with conviction.
"Thank you." I say, my voice chocked with emotion. "I don't know what i'd do without you both."
Lena comes over to me as with a bright smile. "In the meantime, i've got some news." I look up at her, those green eyes as bright as her smile. "I found something that's gonna help you walk again."
