The Sparrow

Chapter 15

I was awake. They didn't know but, I was. I could hear them talking, as if the sleeping stuf hadn't wore off yet. Were they even watching the clock?

"I don't know, I've never seen this happen before."  I identified one of the Doctor's who opperated on me voice.

"Well is this a bad thing? I mean, its a good thing right?" Bruce's worried voice asked. I could imagine his eyebrows scrunched together in worry.

"Of course its a good thing! She works on her own now, she's healthy." Tony spoke up. What the hell could they be talking about?

"Well, it is a good thing, a great thing really, but this means her heart could fail at any moment. Unless the syrum was designed exactly to fix her heart condition, this can't be safe." The doctor replied. Oooh. In this moment I chose to "wake up." I groaned and sat up, rubbing my eyes with my fists.

"Hey guys." I said with fake sleepyness. Well they looked pretty convinced.

"Hey kiddo, how do you feel?" Tony questioned, looking over my monitors as Bruce sat down in the chair next to my bed.

"Good, a little lighter though." I observed. My body felt a lot lighter than usual, a lot more... free. 

"That's great news! Well we got you all fixed up, and you seem to be recovering fine." Tony told me. I smled at him and looked to the doctor.

"When can I get out of here? This gown is itchy." I say to him and he looked down at his clip board.

"You should be able to leave soon, right now we're waiting on a few test results and then you should be free to leave." He tells me and I grin wider. Natasha walks in and stands at the foot of my bed.

"Hey Em, how're you feeling?" She asks and I smile at her.

"I feel great actually, I woke in a good mood and I'm ready to rush at life with a baseball bat." I tell her and she laughs at my explanation.

"Well that's good!" She says and I feel someone grab my hand. I look down to see it's Bruce and I smile at him. He grins back and kisses the back of my hand. I look around the room and notice something in the corner.

"What's that?" I ask, pointing over to the shiny rectangle of the table. Tony walks over and picks it up, tossing it to me.

"A chocolate bar. Bruce thought you'd be hungry so he  brought one for when you wake up." He says and I look over to Bruce.

"Thanks Bruce, that was real thoughtful. I'm starving!" I say and dig in to the delicious candy. At that moment Steve enters the room. 

"Hi Steve!" I saytaking another bite out of my chocolate. He grins and sitis on the other side of my bed opposite to Bruce.

"Hey Emma, did I miss the test results?" He asks and I look to the doctor who is reading something on a tablet.

"Actually Mr. Rogers," He starts as he walks over to my bed. " You're just in time. Miss Emma, I am happy to inform you, that we removed your pacemaker and you're doing fantastic on your own. You won't need it anymore!" He says and I stare at him with disbelief.

"What?"
