The next day...
James opened his eyes slowly and looked confused around the room, remembered that he had been shot and that he was in a hospital room. He felt a slight weight on his body and as he looked down he found Jessica lying on his chest. He smiled as he looked at his wife asleep, the bed was small, but Jessica somehow found a way to lie down next to him. He gently stroked Jessica's blond hair, she shifted in response to his touch and slowly opened her eyes.
"How long have you been awake?" she looks at him in surprise.
"A little while ago, I woke up and when I looked at you, I thought ... how did she manage to make room in this small bed?" he smiled and she did the same.
"I confess that I do not even know how to answer that question" she teased, and they both burst into laughter.
"If I knew that taking a shot would make you sleep with me again ... I would have done it before" he smiled and looked at her "What?" he asked, to see her with a serious expression on her face.
"Do not play with this, James".
"Sorry baby, I did not mean to bother you ... but it's true, lately Sophia has been sleeping between us, I missed sleeping with you" he stared at her and made a face of dog with no owner.
Jessica laughed at his expression "I miss you too, you fool" she lifted and kissed him softly on the lips.
"Are you going to work today?"
"I'm sorry, I wanted to stay and take care of you, but I can not ask Ryan for more time, we're getting to the end of the recordings and it's crazy on set, but I'm going to call Kate to take care of you and Sophia while I work".
"Speaking of which ... where is Sophia?"
"Sarah took her home last night".
"Humm".
Someone knocked on the door, Jessica got up and went to see who it was.
"Good morning, Mrs. Parker" the doctor said, smiling.
"Good morning" Jessica smiled back.
"I need to get Mr. Parker to do some exams".
"It's all right".
James was taken and after half an hour he was back.
"Mrs. Parker, I have good news" said the doctor.
"Oh my God, that's good" Jessica said hopefully.
"Your husband can leave the hospital and have his recovery at home".
"Thank God".
"I'm going to give some pain medicine, and he'll have to be careful not to catch any infection".
"All right, doctor".
"We can also make a nurse available to do the bandage regularly".
"Oh, it will not be necessary, I'll take care of my husband myself" she said seriously.
"All right, Mrs. Parker".
Jessica went back inside and found James laughing.
"What's so funny, James?" she stared at him.
"I take care of my husband myself" he imitated her.
"Do not be silly" she could not resist and began to laugh.
"Poor doctor, he was just trying to be nice ... by the way, what's the problem with a nurse doing my bandage?" he provoked her.
"Oh, so you want a nurse to take care of you?" she asked with jealousy.
