"AIDEN!!"

"BONNIE!"

"That doesn't sound good-"

"How does she keep getting in trouble?"

Ashlyn stumbled back in shock as the others held the two injured.

"W-what happened?" Aiden asked woozily.

"You're okay!" Taylor gasped.

"Yeah why wouldn't I–" he cut himself off when he felt a spike of pain go through him. "My back... wait Bonnie!"

"Focus on–"

"Shut up, where is she?!"

Bonita shot up from where she was lying holding her head. "Ow."

"Your head..."

"Eh?" she tilted her head ignoring the pain. "What about it?"

"It was..."

Ashlyn stared in shock as Aiden and Bonita sat there together, fine, Bonita seeming like she didn't even remember.

"The ceiling came down."

"Oh... shit. Right." She turned to Aiden and pulled his shirt up to see his back. Nothing there. "You okay querido?"

"Yeah, what about you?"

"Headache but I'm fine. Seriously, what are you guys freaking out over?"

"You got hurt again dumbass!" Tyler hit her arm. "Stop putting yourself in danger to protect us!"

"If I can protect someone, I will, that's–"

"Cariño!" Leo threw the door open and rushed over to Bonita, checking over her. "Are you okay? Are you hurt?!"

"No, I'm fine."

Sofía came in and sat next to Leo pulling Bonita into a hug. "Please don't scare us like that."

"Mom, I'm fine. Seriously."

"You have a gash in your head there." Ashlyn finally spoke up. She looked shaken up. "You were covering Aiden and got hit on the head."

"Ohh, that explains the headache." she nodded, wincing slightly as she did. "Daddy, don't kill Aiden. I protected him because I wanted to, end of story."

"But–"

"End. Of. Story."

"Fine. Here." Leo handed her a bottle of pills. "If it's a gash you'll need more of these."

"Honestly... I don't feel that bad. My stomach doesn't even hurt anymore."

"What?" Emma turned to Logan's grandpa. "The sedative can't be that strong."

"It's not."

"A-actually." Taylor spoke up looking at Ashlyn then back at the parents. "Her stomach healed. Completely."

"Eh really? That's cool."

"You died. You died twice Bonnie."

Aiden hugged her tightly. "What happened to–"

"I'm not saving myself to let you die."

"...next time let me be your knight."

She pulled away to look him in the eyes and smiled. "Next time."
