Dark Times

"Just a little thing."

Garrett groaned in pain, waiting for the pain killers to kick in. He could hear a lot of cursing in Spanish, he didn't even have to open his eyes to know it was Carmen and James. He could also hear Silas and loudly talking about how garrett looked. He opened his eyes blinking at bit as he adjusted to the brightness. 

"You little fucker! you scared the shit out of me and peanut here!" Carmen shouted at him. He laughed at her in long pajama pants, a giant t-shirt and her slippers. James no better. 

"I'm sorr-" he was cut off when Lani ran into the room, his eyes looked over her frame. She was wearing a cropped tank top and her pajama shorts. Michael asleep in her arms.

"Are you okay?" She asked as carmen took michael.

"Yeah, it was just a little thing." Garrett sighed his head hurting. Lani walked over to him planting a kiss on his lips. He looked at him mom standing by the door talking to the doctor. He sighed again.

"Guys, I'm sorry. I'll be fine I heal fast." Garrett tried to reassure them. She scooted over a bit in his bed. For them to lay michael down. Silas ran to him trying to climb into the bed wanting to join. Zander placed him in the bed.

"Man, you sure you look pretty bad." Zander said unsure.

"I'm fine."

"No you're not," dahlia sighed "god, you're just like Austin so much it hurts."

Carmen sighed, "I need to pee," then she stopped "oh shit." She gasped looking at the puddle of water on the floor.

Garrett looked at his mom and Samuel sleeping in the couch, he messed with Michael's hair as he slept Silas sleep on Zander who was seated in a chair. Lani lied next to him. She placed a soft kiss on his injured shoulder.

"No head injury?" She asked looking at him.

"No head injury, thanks to the new helmet you bought me." He smiled, he was about to say something else when the door cracked open. He father peeked in.

He walked into the room carrying a bag. He stopped at the foot of the bed.
"I got a call, i brought you some get well gifts." He said passing the bag to garrett. Lani got it for him. She rummaged through the bag, pulling out a bunch of candies and a pair of boxing gloves.

"Thanks?" Garrett said questionably wondering why he was even here.

Desmond couldn't help glancing over at Felicia. His eyes lingering on the man next to him, anger building up inside if him.
