*Rewrites in Progress*
"Do not test me on my birthday, Jacob," I said, keeping my eyebrow raised as if to dare him to continue. He huffed, muttering something about birthday's being a curse, and I leant down to help the other guy up, finally catchin...

Anastasia's POV
The first thing I saw was a bright light above me. I shielded my eyes, only to find my left arm was hooked to an iv. I groaned and tried to sit up, my head spinning in the process.
A figure was slumped on the chair next to me, and it didn't take a genius to figure out it was my man. He had a stubble growing, something I would definitely be telling him to keep. His hair had grown longer, its natural curls just begging for me to run my fingers through.
I lifted a stray piece of hair off of his face and his nose twitched, his eyes opening slowly.
"Ana?" he whispered.
"Hey Quinn," I croaked, my throat still very dry from my torment. He noticed and quickly handed me a glass of water. I sipped it slowly, smiling as Quinn sat on the edge of the bed and held my free hand in his.
I didn't realise tears had slipped out of my eyes until Quinn wiped them away gently with his thumbs. "Don't cry, my rose, it breaks my heart to see you cry," he whispered, and I nodded sniffing quietly.
"Quinn, he hurt me. They all hurt me. I tried to be strong I really did, but I let them hurt me. Oh is Aurora here, Quinn she was with me and-" Quinn put a finger to my lips to shush me.
"Ana, all that matters right now is that you are here and you are safe," he said, looking into my eyes. He leaned in and placed a tender kiss on my lips.
God I had missed that.
It was only after his lips parted mine that I notice the second bed in the room. Aurora was sleeping peacefully in it, her hair looking healthier than it had when I had last seen her.
The door opened and a doctor walked in, her smile seeming rather forced at the sight of my boyfriend. "Miss Heart, good to see you awake and healthy. Your vitals look good so I'll discharge you this afternoon," she stated, sending a genuine smile my way.
"Thankyou doctor-"
"-Reina. My name's Doctor Reina," she said. She unhooked all the machines and then walked out of the room, rather quickly.
"Did you have something to do with the fact she was scared shitless of you?" I asked Quinn, quirking my eyebrow.
"Of course love, my father owns the whole damn hospital," he replied with a smirk.

My mamma and papà visited with Charlie, and I jumped out of my bed into my brother's arms, sobbing uncontrollably. He held me tight, and I wrapped my legs around his waist. My mamma was also crying, kissing my cheeks repeatedly. My papà waited for me to get off of Charlie before hugging me tightly. I took a deep breath, taking in the smell of his cologne which I had missed so much.
Aurora was now awake and animatedly chatting with Quinn, who held his baby sister close. She was currently asking him about his life and how he met me, to which he scratched the back of his neck awkwardly whilst I giggled.
