Justin's POV ( 30 votes babes like always ;) )

"For Jason McCann?" I heard the nurse calling as I stood up quickly letting them know I'm here for him.

"H-how is he?" I swallow hard, feeling my heart burning as of now.

"We took the bullet out he's awake doing fine." I sigh in relief thanking god.

"Can I see him?" She nodded showing me the way to his room. "I'll be right back." I look towards the kids and Mackenzie.

"Can I come too?" She stands up not even giving me a chance to speak up.

"Cailin you're in charge of them okay?" She gives me a thumbs up, I look towards Drake seeing him pretty mad with his hands crossed from each other. He's not really trustworthy in my book. I play with my hands following Mackenzie towards his room.

We got inside seeing Jason sat up by the edge of the bed all bandage up towards his left. When he saw me he gave me a small smile and then looked towards his mom. "I'm so glad you're okay, you gave me a heart attack, well almost." She laughs smacking his cheek playfully.

"Mom." He whines pulling her hand away. I just looked down, admiring the light green floor, I literally didn't know what to say anymore. I felt so out of space.

"Well...um...I'm gonna go and let you two talk it out?" She kisses his cheek and gives me a smile before leaving. Jason didn't speak up first so it was his way telling me to do it first. I sighed looking up slowly walking towards him. I was out of words I just decided to hug him.

"I'm sorry if I hurt you, I just need the hug right now." I whisper just wanting to hug him to feel his touch. I loved to touch him, his warm warmth would sleep into my being and comforted me without ever opening his mouth. I'd melt into him, like ice cream in a warm porcelain bowl, like I belonged next to him, like he belonged next to me. And each time before we parted the aching to be in his arms would begin again. "I love you." I sniffle between his shoulder. I felt him picking me up putting me on his lap. "Shit, I'm crying again. I'm such a cry baby." I sobbed hiding my face on his shoulder. He just gently rubbed my back.

"You're just really sensitive, it's okay." He pulls me away, kissing my face all over. I giggle bitting my lip.

"I just want you to stay safe, and I don't want to come one day to see you dea- I mean no-I-" he cuts off my sentence kissing me pulling away for a second looking at my teary stained face and kisses me again. As cheesy as it sounds, it's just like the movies. For that single moment time stops. I don't care about the people around us, in fact I don't even notice them. It's me and him. There's no war, no death, no suffering, just us. Hard to believe that there aren't even any people in this room.

We hear a cough as we pull away seeing the kids standing there. "Is Phoenix okay?" He whispers still not putting me down on the floor. I nodded telling him everything is alright but leaving the guy out that got away. I still don't have all the details but after what happened Phoenix called 911 like how I taught him if anything went wrong.

"Thank god, I really can't take anymore bad news." He hugs me tightly pulling me closer to him.

"Daddy? Are you okay?" Cailin asks bitting her lip.

"Yeah, I'm fine don't worry it's nothing that I can't handle." He grins picking her up as well. I took my chance sliding down so she could have a turn.

"Why did you go?" He pouts at me. I roll my eyes playfully seeing the others coming around him asking if he's okay or needed anything. I could see the smile on his face, how happy he was seeing them all. I even heard Camila calling her dad. I gasped but quickly holding my mouth not showing it because I knew he was waiting for this moment for a very long time now. I couldn't blame him, it was hard for me too.
