Hours later I sat in Ella's room staring at her lifeless body, my mind was racing with god knows how many thoughts my main two was
One) was Ella going to pull through this?
Two) was Andy going to come back, wife less.

I know that made me sound like a bitch and selfish but right now I didn't care Ella needed him and so did I more than ever, also I was in love with him.

Hours past and so did the night I looked at the clock seeing it was 8:15 a nurse stuck her head in asking if I needed anything I told her I was okay as the only things I needed she couldn't get me.
I sat there struggling to keep my eyes open when the door opens I turn thinking it was another nurse coming to check on Ella but it wasn't, it was Andy.

I stare at him as he stood there he looked like shit he looked physically and mentally drained I get up out the chair looking at him before walking over quickly hugging him, he hugged me back kissing my head.

"You look like shit" I told him truthfully hugging him tight

"I feel it" he sighed "you don't look much better" he added on

I let go of him sitting back down Andrew moves the spare chair closer to me sitting down with a moan before rubbing his tired face with his hands.

A few minutes past and I lean forward resting myself on my lap staring at Ella
"So what happened?" I asked him I didn't look at him i was to nervous to, but I needed to know what happened.

Andrew groans out moving forward in his chair "where do I start, she shouted she threw stuff she bitched she called me some extremely unpleasant names along with you. I told her that I'm leaving her to be with you and Ella. I told her that when Ella's made a full recovery I will be filing for divorce"

"You seriously said that?" I asked him I felt slight excitement in me but I couldn't show it I didn't have it in me right this second.

"Yes Riley. I'm in love with you, I want you and Ella"

I look at him getting up out the chair I look down at him, he sits back and I sit on his lap cuddling in to him looking at Ella "I'm in love with you to" I muttered tears built up in my eyes

"Don't cry" Andy said as I started to cry I wipe the tears from my face

"I can't help it, I'm feeling like shit. If she goes, I've robbed you both six years of each other. I did that, me" I cried trying to clam myself down.

"Don't think like that. She's going nowhere. She's going to pull through this. Because she's got a whole new life that she's going to start. That we are going to start as a family" Andrew said I nodded my head agreeing with him. Ella would pull through this because she was strong and she was listening now knowing that her dad was going to be here for her one hundred percent he was the full time dad that she wanted.
