I explained to the nurse at the counter everything that happened, but I didn't say that it was Connor's gang or that we were deep in the woods.

I had to sit in the waiting room while Shadow had a surgery to get the bullet from his arm and have his wound tended too. I was going to call his parents, but I didn't have their phone numbers.

I sat down on one of the waiting chairs and hugged Shadow's satchel close to my chest. Warm tears kept streaming down my face, this was all my fault and now Shadow is hurt.

I continued to cry silently as I waited for the doctors to come out. It was starting to get even darker outside, and it started to get really cold too.

I buried my face in my sweater and jumped up seeing the same doctor who took Shadow came out through the doors. He looked pale and he was out of breath, like he just saw a ghost or something.

I walked up to him shaking violently. "I-Is he ok?" I asked while stuttering.

He stared at me for a couple of seconds before he answered. "O-Oh! Y-Yes, he is ok and the wound has been covered. He is actually recovering at a fast rate, he will probably be able to go home after we run some tests. Most of his blood has returned and the wound has already started to close! Remarkably fast in my opinion."

I sighed in relief and smiled. "T-Thank you, doctor. Am I allowed to see him or is he asleep?"

"He is knocked out from the amnesia but you can check on him if you would like."

I nodded. "Yes please, which room is he in?"

"Room four hundred one, follow me."

I followed him down some hallways with people walking or running by, and I just noticed how short the doctor is. He looks about four six.

We got to a room with an old, rusted, metal sign on the top of the door saying 'Room 401' written in bold handwriting. The doctor waved to me as he walked off and I just opened the door not bothering to wave back

I saw Shadow laying on the hospital bed with ivies hooked up to him and bandages soaked with blood that were wrapped around his shoulder. He was asleep, well he had his eyes closed and he was quiet so I just assumed.

I walked over to him and covered my mouth with my hands trying not to sob loudly. I sat in a chair next to him and rested the arm I used to cover my mouth on the side of the bed. I kept crying while I stared at him watching his chest slowly rise and fall, my eyes started to sting so I shut them tightly.

After a couple of seconds, I felt someone gently grab my arm causing me to shiver slightly. I opened my eyes and saw Shadow holding onto my arm smiling weakly.

I hugged him tightly and he hugged me back. He chuckled before coughing a bit. "H-Hey, don't cry." His voice sounded raspy and weak.

I kissed him and held onto one of his hands. "I-I-I'm so sorry! I didn't w-want you to g-get hurt, I-I'm sorry." I said through tears as I buried my face in his chest.

He gently pat my back as I continued to cry. "I-t wasn't your fault, don't cry min engel."

I slowly started to calm down and pulled away from the hug, I kept my hand intertwined with his though.

"How long did they say I had to be here for?" He asked and his voice started to clear up too.

"The doctor told me that you would probably be able to go after they run some tests."

He smiled and kissed the hand he was holding. "Takk, min herlige." He murmured loud enough for me to hear.

I smiled and kissed his forehead. I started to pet his hair gently and a soft purr escaped from him. It's so cute when he purred like that, it made me feel calm and safe.

After a couple of minutes, the doctor came into the room and told me to wait outside the door so they could run the end tests. I obeyed and waved to Shadow as I left the room.

I leaned against the wall next to the door as I waited to go back home with Shadow. I heard moving and talking coming from inside the room but I couldn't understand what they were saying.

Soon my phone started buzzing. I checked the number and it was an unknown collar for facetime. I was confused but I answered anyway.

I was greatest by a man standing next to someone who was taller than him, who couldn't even fit his head in the screen, and was looking away. The man had a black mask on and he was silently giggling.

"Dennis O' Gallchobhair and Shadow Lovik, you have been tagged for dea- OW!!" He started with a deep voice but sounded like... Shadow's father when he yelled.

The man next to him had hit him in the back of the head before he could finish. "Don't scare the poor child, and take your mask off." The other man said, he sounded like Shadow's dad!

The shorter male grumbled and took off his mask, and it was Shadow's father! "Heya Dennis. Do you know if Shadow is ok?" He asked scratching the back of his neck.

"Yeah, he was shot in the arm and-"

"WHAT?!?" I was cut off by his Dad jumping up and screaming.

Both of them started to look really worried. "He was shot in the shoulder, but he is ok we are in the hospital. They are doing some final tests to make sure he's ok and then we can go back home."

His dad bent down to look at the screen and nodded. "Thank you, Dennis. When he is ok please tell him I need to ask him something."

I nodded. "Yes, sir." They both smiled after I said that.

"Thank you, and goodbye." He said and his father hung up waving before I could respond.

I put my phone back in the satchel and went back to waiting for Shadow. After a couple of minutes, he came out with the doctor and he told us we could go.

I paid for the hospital bill and we started to walk home. I held onto Shadow's hand the whole way. My face felt like it was stained with tears, which it most likely was.

When we got back home we turned the news on and saw that the gang was arrested for manslaughter, assault, robberies, and many more charges. This made me happy.

I cooked a frozen pizza for us to share and then we both sat on the couch watching the move set Ice Age. After we finished all the movies we both went off to bed.

Shadow held me close to his chest with his one good arm wrapped around my waist while his wounded arm was on the pillow above our heads. I held both my arms around his body and buried my face into his chest.

We both started to slowly fall asleep, and my head lifted slightly everytime his chest would rise and fall. I felt so safe and warm. I felt him kiss the top of my head before we both fully fell asleep.
