Hillary was gently brushing her wife's hair for the nth time, she stayed beside Nymph who was still unconscious after what happened yesterday. She hummed a song as her fingers brushes against the woman's cheek. Nymph let out soft sighs, her breathings were soft and steady.

"Coffee?" Harvey offered, Hillary looked at her youngest twin. She was the one who called her about what happened to Nymph while she was busy. Hillary looked at Harvey before glancing down at Nymph's troubled face, the woman's brows were furrowed as she sleeps. Hillary gently leaned in to kiss her lips, guilt forming in her eyes as she stares at her wife.

Nymph needed her that time.

"I'll do that she wakes up." Hillary says in a soft tone and she sighed before she adjusts herself in the bed giving Nymph some comfortable space.

Harvey glances at Hillary's actions firmly as she sips her coffee, the younger twins' eyes narrowed. "The doctor said she'll wake up anytime today. Loosen up." Harvey's tone fall quite heavy for Hillary's ears.

"I'm not feeling guilty." Hillary glared at Harvey.

Harvey raised her brow at her elder twin as she leans against the frame of the door before she shrugged. "I'm not making you." She said firmly wondering what was up with Hillary's sudden tensed reaction.

"I just wanted you to loosen up, to relax since you've been by her side the whole night." Harvey continued and Hillary just rolled her eyes before she lovingly glanced at her sleeping wife's face.

"She wouldn't even be like this in the first place if you just showed up." Harvey drinks as she murmured those words but it still collected right on Hillary's ears. Hillary glanced at her sister all over again.

"What did you say?" She raised her brows as she wants Harvey to repeat her words right in front of her. Before Hillary could further more speak about Harvey's murmur, Nymph shifted awake. She hummed and squirmed a little she she opened her eyes. Nymph blinked, her eyes adjusting to the brightness of the room. She looks around to see Harvey and Hillary staring at each other from a mile of this room. Hillary was beside her in bed meanwhile Harvey was by the door frame drinking her usual coffee.

"What happened?" She touched the crown of her head as she felt a nerve throb whilst she slowly sits up on the bed. Hillary made sure to put some pillows on her back to lean in. Nymph smiles softly as she looks at Hillary.

"You're here." She said softly and touched her arm. Happy as she touched her lover's arm, her fingers glide on the supple skin as she lovingly looks up to her with nothing else but pure love for her.

"Yes, I'm sorry. I took too long yesterday because of traffic." Hillary reasons and Nymph nodded her head. The woman's words were true within her heart. Nymph naively believes it. Harvey had a nonchalant reaction with it. Nymph sucks in a deep breath then turns to Harvey as she clasps her hands together and she smiled at her savior.

"Thank you, Harvey." Nymph says her words of gratitude. Hillary may not have been there to catch her but Harvey was quick enough to do so. Harvey was the bigges help, she would've bashed her head against the floor if Harvey did not come to the rescue. She and Harvey were properly escorted out, giving space and comfort for Nymph to grasp on. Hillary took her detour getting home fast as she calls on the doctor whilst Harvey arrived with Nefetari.

Harvey softly smiled as she stirred her coffee by holding her cup motioning it in gentle circles, the woman's distintive "You're always welcome. I got you." Harvey responded nonchalantly. Harvey utterly felt like some background paper because of how much Hillary and Nymph were quite affectionate with each other it was almost an eyesore. Harvey shaked her head and cleared her throat.
