(Evans POV)

The guys told me I needed to stop visiting Hope. She would've woken up by now if she was going to. I've only been able to sleep for a couple of hours each night and tonight was no exception. I laid in bed for a couple of hours now. Maybe today I should see her again, I was at least able to sleep when I visited her. This, however, was torture.

I was laying in bed strumming a couple of cords on my guitar, wondering what to play to make time go faster. My thoughts came and distracted me from playing so I was just sitting up in bed with my guitar laying on me. My phone started ringing which made me come back to reality. I mindlessly grab it and answer it.

"Go for Evan." I wasn't tired but my voice sounded like I just woke up.

"She's up." The guy on the other side said. It's too early for this honestly.

"You're going to have to elaborate, who's up, who even is this?" I say getting up from my bed and walking over to put my guitar back in its place.

"Hope, she woke up from her coma just an hour ago, this is Evan Fong right?" The guy says. I drop the guitar and hear it make a hard thud as it collides with the ground.

"It's Evan Fong yes... she's... she's up?" I ask, my voice already becoming shaky.

"Yes Hope is up, Dr. Williams wanted me to call you because she was worried about you not coming in for the past week. She wants you to come in as soon as you can. Hope is awake, talking, and responding well to the test we've given her so far." The guy says.

I end the call and run to my closet, throwing on a baggy black shirt and a black hoodie. I slide on my silver hightops and was already running out the door to get down to the garage. I was speeding so fast, I turned a 30-minute drive from my apartment to the hospital into a 15-minute drive.

I park right in front of the hospital and throw up my hoodie. It was already raining and was planning on raining and thundering all day today. I run into the hospital where it was completely empty in the waiting area, of course it was, visiting hours didn't start until 10 in the morning.

I run past the set of double doors, ignoring the yelling receptionist and navigate my way through the familiar hospital till I got to Hopes door. The nightstand lamp was on and I could hear the tv playing. I grab the handle and feel my heart speed up. What am I waiting for?! She's awake finally! I open up the door and there she was, sitting up in the hospital bed watching the news. She turns her head and looks at me, her eyes going wide.

(Hopes POV)

I was watching a news segment about the last heist that Evan and the gang did, which was robbing the Pacific Standard bank in Downtown Vinewood. They ended up stealing over a million dollars from the bank. I heard the door open up and I turn to look at who was coming in. My eyes go wide as Evan was pulling down his wet hood from his hoodie. A huge smile comes onto my face as he stood there, still processing that I was awake.

"Hi Evan," I said beginning to laugh. He ran over to me and pulled me into a tight hug, my bruised up body was not very happy but I didn't care as I hugged him back. He stops hugging me and looks at my face, a smile growing on his face.

"I never thought I was going to see those beautiful blue eyes again. You're... you're awake, you're talking to me, you're looking at me! Look at you!" He says excitedly. He holds my cheek in his hand and pulls me into a kiss. He goes away from my lips and lays his forehead on mine as he begins to chuckle.
