Benny POV

Later on in the day

Vanessa got released from the hospital. She was being wheel by Smalls.Im just checking Vanessa won't do too much body work.

"I'm got go crazy " Vanessa sigh

"Why" I asked confused

"I can't do too much body work. I'm got get fat. Ehh I'm too lazy to think too much of it" Vanessa yell and everyone was looking at us as we pass by. We got to the van of Zak. I pick up Vanessa as a bride style and sit her in the passenger seat. Vanessa wanted to sit with us but knowing the boys, they might move too much and end up hurting Vanessa by accident. I kiss her temple.

"Please take off that pout. You are doing this because you know it calms me." I told her

"I know the boys might move too much" Vanessa sign

"Thanks " I told her and kiss her hand. All the boys got in the van along with me. I made sure I was sitting near Vanessa.

"I swear Benny worrying more then you" Vanessa told her dad

"Oh if he wasn't here then i would be worry but I know that you have Benny here to worrying. So I just let him do the job for me " Zak smile big

I went to hold Vanessa hand. She started to play with my fingers. She made a habit of doing that. When we got to the house. I carry Vanessa to her room. The boys were behind me. I put her in her bed.

"You okay" I asked after I made sure that she wasn't in pain.

"Guys sit down. I would be fine if you sat on the bed." Vanessa beg

"We just don't want to reopen your cut. It's all " Yeah Yeah said sadly

Vanessa bit her bottom lip

"What aren't you telling me" Vanessa asked look at us

"We feel like it's our fault that you got stab." Timmy said sadly looking down. Vanessa just sigh.

"Guys what I did was my choice. Not either of you. It's wasn't your fault and it would never will. Guys I would literally die inside if I know that you got hurt by someone that wants to do harm to me. I care for every one of you. You guys are my family. I would do it for my dad, Jay, Louis, Fizzy, my uncles. You all are like my little brothers. I have love for you. I'm overprotective of every single one of you. Memorial wanted to do harm to me. Not you guys. But if it meant hurting me in the process then they wouldn't think it twice. "Vanessa said looking at every one of us

"Now sit in this bed before I started yelling" Vanessa demand and we follow her demand. That how we spend the whole day. Sitting in the bed and talking we end up sleeping together

Downstairs

Third POV

Zak and Benny mom Danielle were talking

"Your son was blaming himself on what happened to Vanessa" Zak told Danielle

"He does that all the time " Danielle said sadly

"I just feel bad that he thinks that this was his fault when it wasnt. If Benny would know what would happen. He told them to do to him instead" Zak reply sadly

"What your daughter did for them was really hero like."Danielle said

"Vanessa is like that. She would put her life on the line if it meant that the people she cares for are safe " Zak told her

"I see that you have love for them " Danielle reply to him

"They are one of the best friends I have ever seen. The way that they skip playing baseball so they stay with Vanessa in hospital. The way they all feel bad when they shouldn't. They all apologize to me for not protection Vanessa. What they don't know that in some way they did." Zak told Danielle quietly

"How " Danielle asked

"I know the memorial people. They would have done more damage if they would have stay and put on a fight. I'm just glad that they found them and the boys won't have to look every where in case some one wants to harm Vanessa. "Zak answer

"So Benny told me that you been pushing him to ask Vanessa " Danielle change the topic

"I hope you don't mind. I heard that some of the boys don't have a dad. So I just thought that maybe I could be there dad figure in a way. I could see that Benny wanted to talk to a man about his feelings. No offense. I just ask want him happy and I also want to see my daughter happy as well. And I can see that they both make each other happy in a way. I been pushing Benny to make a move. " Zak explain himself

"Nah don't worry. I don't mind. His father left when he was little. Benny always wanted a dad to show them things that I can't. Ever since he stay late once here. He been more relaxed. Not so uptight. Also after the hospital he been having this glow. Did any thing happened in the hospital " Danielle smirking

"They got together and I have also see the glow in him. "Zak answer

"Well I can see that Vanessa is a sweet girl" Danielle reply

"She amazing. When her mother left me. I didn't how I was got move on but sometimes I would see in her eyes that no matter where she was. She would give this love in her eyes. When I was filming the shows it was very hard being away from her." Zak told her

"I feel honor that your daughter is with my son. I met her and she so nice and sweet. I fell in love with her more when I found out that she took a stab for him and his friends. "Danielle reply to Zak

"Yeah she did and she hates that the boys are blaming themself" Zak tell

"Soon or later they got know that it's wasn't their fault " Dani said
