Betty POV:

After what felt like days of painful waiting I saw a young nurse make her way over to us. Her face was emotionless, could this be bad news?

Nurse: are you here for Sweet Pea? She asked the lot of us. We all nod our heads. Joaquin squeezed my hand tightly.

Nurse: we have some news for you all. Surgery went better then we suspected and he will be able to make a full recovery.

We all let out a breath that we had been holding onto since he had been shot. He's going to be okay

Nurse: He will need a full week to recover, after the week he still may feel a little sore, it's just his body adjusting. You can visit him now. She says with no expression.

I felt a weight lift off my shoulders, he's okay. My baby is fine.

The nurse soon left and the Serpents all said I could visit Sweet Pea first. I walk towards the room he had been placed in. I stand in front of the door and take a deep breath and stabilise my breathing. I gently turn to twist the cold doorknob and push open the door. I walk in and see him hooked up to a couple machines and ivs. My poor baby.

His attention was on the window until he heard me open the door. He turned to me and put a smile on his face.

Sweet Pea: Hey Princess. He says casually as if he wasn't shot, like it was just a normal day for him.
Betty: Pea... I whisper as tears trickle down my cheeks. His face crinkled and he motions for me to walk to him.

Sweet Pea: Betts, don't cry. I'm okay. He says while rubbing small circles with his thumb on my hand. I smile down at him. How is he so calm?

Betty: Pea, this is all my fault. I say looking into his eyes.

I use my free hand to play with the front part of his hair. As soon as those words left my mouth he looked broken, not because he believed what I said was true, but because he thought I truly thought this was all my fault.

Sweet Pea: this was not your fault Betty. You couldn't predict what that psycho was thinking. Don't blame yourself or I'll pull one of these cords off. He says with a grin.

How can he still be so playful?

Betty: but Pea- I started saying before he cuts me off.
Sweet Pea: say one more word about that and I'll pull this off. He says while grabbing a cord that was attached to his iv.
Betty: you wouldn't. I say with a slight grin.
Sweet Pea: I think we both know I would. He says with a devilish grin.
Betty: you're an idiot. I giggle.
Sweet Pea: I'm your idiot. He says with an adorable smile.
Betty: of course. I say while placing a kiss on his forehead.

Sweet Pea: you're beautiful. He says with adoring eyes.

Can this man stop complementing me, he's in hospital because of my ex. I wish he would focus on himself, not me. This man cares about me too much.

Betty: seriously, now? I say while raising an eyebrow up at him. He laughs.
Sweet Pea: not my fault you're hot. He shrugged.
Betty: you're in hospital, stop complementing me. I say with a chuckle.
Sweet Pea: just because I'm in hospital doesn't been I can't tell the different between ugly nurses and my hot girlfriend. He says with the biggest smirk I've seen from him.

Betty: you're impossible. I say to him.
Sweet Pea: I pride myself on it. I laugh and place a kiss on his lips.

Sweet Pea: I've missed those lips. He whispered against my lips.
Betty: you've probably only been awake for half an hour, I highly doubt it. I say with a soft laugh.
Sweet Pea: you're always on my mind. He says and I laugh.
Betty: you're so cheesy. I say with a giggle and he laughs.
Sweet Pea: you love it. He says with a smirk.
