Alicia:I thought I would get whiplash at how fast my head shot up. I was met with hazel eyes that were half open, and a tired smile.
"Oh my God you're awake!" I cried. I hugged him tight and pulled back before smacking him on the forehead.
"Ow! What in the world Lacy?" He complained as he rubbed his forehead.
"Thats for scaring me into tears! For a week I have sat here wondering when you would wake up! I waited seven hours for you to get out of surgery, three of which I spent in clothes, covered in your blood. Your son has asked every day for a week when you would be awake. You have put my through hell this week you son of a bitch." I was near tears by the time I was done. Alec grabbed my hand and pulled me to him once again.
He hugged me tight and stroked my hair. "You know I could never leave you Lacy. I love you so much. So damn much." His voice was raspy and thick with emotion.
I reluctantly pulled away from him. "I love you too bunny. Let me call a nurse in to tell her your ass woke up."
Alec chuckled as I reached over and pressed the call nurse button above his bed.
----------------------------------
An hour later Alec had been poked, prodded, given questions to test his memory and fed.
The family had all rushed into the room as soon as they heard that Alec had woken up. AJ was the first to barrel into the arms of his father.
"Papi! I missed you so much!" He exclaimed as he jumped up into the hospital bed. I could see Alec wince, but no complains come from him as he held AJ close to his chest and kissed his the top of his head.
"I missed you too mijito." Alec cooed at him. God I almost forgot how good his Spanish was, and how sexy it sounded coming from him.
"Are you all better?" AJ asked, never releasing his hold on his father.
Alec chuckled. "Not one hundred percent, but they did tell me in three days I can go home. So we can spend the next week or two watching TV and going over some court cases that have piled up. How does that sound?"
AJ beamed with excitment at the thought of getting his hands on some of Alec's cases. "That sounds amazing!"
I chuckled at the pair. "I hope I can join in on that."
Alec just flashed me a grin. "Nope! Its a boys only club."
I pouted playfully. "No mami's allowed?"
AJ grinned at me, just like his father. "Sorry mami, I have to agree with papi on this one."
I sighed in faux annoyance. "Fine, I'll just hang out with your mom and look at alllllll your baby pictures again."
Alec's face turned in to absolute horror. "Oh God no. Please don't do that to me. You know how my mother gets!"
I laughed. "I'm teasing bunny. No way I would subject myself to the 30 baby books of you that your mom has?"
"It's 29 now. I burned 1995." He shivered. 1995 was the year of the bowl cut Daisy made Alec get. it was a dark time in his childhood cause good Lord was it ugly.
"Thank God!" I exclaimed. Alec and I laughed. After the laughter subsided we fell into a comfortable silence.
"Come here." Alec said softly and held out his hand to me. I grabbed it and allowed him to pull me into the bed beside him and AJ. He threw an arm around me and kissed my temple.
"I love you two so much. I don't know what I would do without you in my life." Alec looked down at AJ and I with adoration in his eyes.
"I love you too Papi." AJ responded giving Alec a kiss on the cheek.
"I love you more bunny." I whispered as I kissed his other cheek, my lips lingering a little longer than necessary.
I could feel him shiver under my touch and I grinned. God I missed him
