DOVE'S POV:
It was the day Ryan was coming home.
I was so excited for him to be able to be in a place where the food doesn't taste like dirt and everywhere you look you see pills and bandages..
Everything was going to be back to normal..
But I did realize one thing..
Ryan still didn't know I was pregnant!
I had told him when I first visited him..but he wouldn't of heard me..and if he did..I doubt he would still remember when everything from 3 weeks ago was such a blur..
I had bought Ryan another stuffed giraffe because his old one looked as if it had been buried for 6 years then dug back up again!

I had made him dinner and had bought him a pint of his favorite 'cookie dough' ice cream.
He was always nagging me to buy him an ice cream factory..he was only kidding..but I had actually considered it..
Okay..I sound insane..but..he was so successful with his acting and singing..and..he would have been an awesome ice cream man! Plus the flavors he created would be unique but delicious!
He told me he wanted to invent the flavor 'raspberry lemonade-o-fizz' I don't exactly know what it would be but..I'm sure it would turn out great..like most things in our lives.

I was just sat on the couch..biting my nails and sighing..

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
I jumped up and ran so fast I actually tripped over a rug and hit my elbow on the floor.
"Crap.."I whispered, helping myself up.
I walked towards the door slowly in case of any other unexpected accidents around the corner.
I unlocked the door and opened it.
It was Ryan..
Kind of..
He was sat, looking uncomfortable, in a wheelchair.
His hair was slicked back with gel and his cuts on his cheeks were stitched up.
He looked a lot paler than usual, and noticeably thinner.
I kneeled down and hugged him.
He didn't hug back..which was..odd.
In fact when I stood back up I realized he was asleep.
"Why is he asleep?!" I asked the Doctor who was standing beside his wheelchair.
"We had to give him some medication..he was..upset about the situation..he didn't want to be in a wheelchair..he was shouting so we just injected some drugs into his bloodstream to knock him out for awhile" she replied, sighing and smiling at me sympathetically.

The Doctor told me she'd wait with me until he woke up.
We talked about my wedding plans. About what theme was set for the wedding..whether we were going to have kids..and that's when I told her about my pregnancy.

That was the double update (( sorry for not updating yesterday )) don't  worry chapter 10s coming soon😊
