Jase's POV
Fate, destiny, kismet, karma, different words, slightly different meanings but all fall under a similar concept. The definition of fate or destiny is the belief of a predetermined course of events, which may be conceived as affecting a specific individual. It is a concept based on the idea that there is an order to the universe and I suppose in some circumstances that belief manifests into something that can be seen as true by many people, me I never used to be one of those people until today. I had been thinking this morning, what would my life have turned out like without Willow, it's only been a few months but I feel like I've known her my entire life so cliché I know. But then again, Willow is the same reason why I'm sitting in a hospital so I suppose in some fucked up sort of way this could be all the havoc I have wreaked on others throughout my life coming back to bite me in the shape of a bullet in a weird, very very weird ironic situation in which I'm struggling to grasp.
*2 hours earlier*
"Boys, I know I haven't been very attentive recently but I have been slightly pre occupied, my apologies. I want to be caught up right now in order of severity and priority so who can give me the cliff notes version" I say
Liam pipes up from the back, he used to be so damn shy and now it's near impossible to even rattle the kid let alone shut him up nevertheless I let him talk.
"Cliff notes version, 1. O'Brian has been seen in the area but we haven't seen or heard from him yet he's still lying low but we're tracking to make sure he's not up to anything. 2. The Houdini's have been keeping us on our toes, so far there's been no conflict but it's going to happen sooner or later and we're expecting it to be big so we're in prepping for anything and everything. And last but not least we need to have a special celebration for Ashton who bless his cotton socks has recently gotten engaged to the soon to be Mrs. Lucy Hastings who may I say must have some serious strength if she wants to deal with him for the rest of her life let alone have little Ash's still we shall host the celebration of the decade." He screams the last part dragging it out while the rest of the room erupts in cheers, howls and whistles.
"ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT, SETTLE THE FUCK DOWN" I scream
"There will be plenty of time for the celebration so Asher congrats dude, must make you the bravest of all of us considering you're about to jump down the rabbit hole that is called marriage, may it bring you all of the happiness in the world my man. Now on to the rest, I'm happy with the way things have been handled so far however I want the Hunter boys to be called as soon as possible because they've got the ability and time to track O'Brian down, I also want you boys to start using them more often, It's what they get paid to do use them and as for the Houdini's if they aren't causing trouble don't start it, we don't want any wars on our hands but I want to be kept up to date okay." I receive a resounding yes from the crowd in front of me.
"Since that's the end of that I'm going back upstairs, if you need me give me a yell" to that I receive several comments most of which follow the same line "whipped". And fuck it, I don't even care, I am whipped. What are they going to do about it?
I walk back upstairs to the bedroom fully expecting Willow to be passed out since she is still very hungover and yet I open the door to see a very undressed Willow smiling seductively, I guess the rest doesn't need explaining. After an hour or so we decided to get some food and somewhere between the house, the car and the McDonalds Willow had convinced me to take her to the back of my property and teach her how to shoot a gun, I mean I wasn't completely against it, she already knew how to fight and it wouldn't hurt to be able to shoot a gun if she needs to so after the food run I take the back track down to an old shed we had still out there where I lined up some targets which consisted of the rubbish from the McDonalds and some water bottles I had in the back of the car. I'm not exactly sure how to explain just how quick things went downhill, I taught her the safety basics, then I taught her how to use the gun, somewhere between her taking the first shot at the water bottle - which she hit may I add, her spinning around and her screaming my name I was shot, she hadn't screamed because she hit the target but because there was a shot fired after she did. All I could think was who the fuck shot me. After being rushed to the hospital by a very distraught and shaky Willow and making some calls I discovered that I wasn't shot because someone was aiming at me, I had a bullet shaped hole in my leg because one of the boys had been teaching his girlfriend how to shoot a gun and it turns out she didn't have as good of an aim as Willow and somehow missed the big ass tree she was aiming for and managed to get me, a person, a person who is at least five times smaller than the width of the tree.
*Now*
"I've taken the culprit out of your leg and you should be fine, it didn't hit anything major and will leave minimal scarring so you'll be free to go as soon as you've had dressings put on and have got the prescript pain medication and on that note I will leave you and the nurse to finish this consult up. Enjoy the rest of your night okay? No more bullets." The doctor says just as he leaves the room snickering slightly.
Willow spends an awful long time changing her opinion of the situation from hysterically funny to majorly pissed off, she's changing it so fast that I can't keep up with the spinning my head is doing, it's fine though, maybe she will play doting nurse in a hot costume for me...
