Nicole POV
It was my sixth day in hospital for me whilst I am conscious and I couldn't wait to be released as I was getting incredibly bored. Most of the pain had subsided as I lay still but when I moved it was still excruciating. Waverly walked into the room with 2 cups of coffee, "here you go." She said handing me the cup. "Once we have finished these we will need to get you ready."
"Aw do you not like how I look." I said trying to sound sexy.
"Oh baby I do but I don't want the outside world to see and have someone take you away from me." Waves said squeezing my hand. Nicole nodded, Waverly pulled her clothes out the bag and lay them on the bottom of the hospital bed, she went back and sat down facing Nicole. She first helped Nicole sit up, then worked her way to gently her arms ups so she could put her top on. After every movement Nicole had to breath through the pain. Once she was dressed a Doctor came in with a prescription bag with pain meds and release forms. Nicole signed them and the Doctor left, I packed her bags when a nurse came in with a wheelchair.
Waverly arrived back at the homestead. Wynonna and Waverly helped Nicole inside and up to their bedroom. They gently lay her on the bed. "Now do you need anything?" Waverly asked.
"Just you." I replied. Waves laid next to me and switched on her laptop to pull up Netflix. After the first episode of Friends we watched Nicole's stomach grumbles.
"Are you hungry?" I asked knowing the answer. Nicole nodded with a pout. "Pizza?" Nicole nodded again. Before I could grab my phone Wynonna walked. "Hey you two I was going to grab pizza do you want some?"
"You read our minds Earp." Nicole replied.
"Be back soon." Wynonna said walking out. I hit play on the next episode and snuggled closer to Nicole, she interlocked our hands and kissed my forehead.
About half an hour later I noticed Nicole's breathing had evened out although every few breaths there was a slight hitch. I stopped the episode and put on a documentary. Wynonna walked in with my vegans pizza and Nicole's meat one. After she left I gently stroked Nicole's cheek to wake her, a few minutes later her eyes opened and she sniffed. "Mmh Pizza." Nicole said. She sat up quickly and winced.
"Baby. Careful." I said placing my hands on her shoulders. I grabbed our boxes and placed hers carefully on her lap. "How was your sleep?"
"Okay. I am sorry I couldn't keep awake." Nicole replied looking at the piece of pizza in her hand.
"It's okay sweetie, you've been through a lot in the last couple of weeks. Just that you are home makes me really happy." I said kissing her cheek. She smiled showing her dimples off, so I kissed her dimple.
After dinner I filled a bath for Nicole and helped her into the bathroom. I sat her on the toilet so I could undress her. I got undressed and sat behind her in the bathtub. After a few kisses, I washed her hair and body and rinsed her off. We went back into our room and I got her dried and dressed. "I better get the bandage replaced." I said getting tape and a gauze a long with alcohol wipes. I removed the old gauzes and gently cleaned the area. "I think it will scare." I said looking up at Nicole.
"Will you mind?" Nicole asked me looking worried.
"Nope. Totally dig em." I replied, I looked back and trailed gentle kisses over the jagged skin. I replaced the gauze and tape.
A month later - Nicole POV
Today was my first day back at work although I was only on paperwork duty. The stitches had been removed but there would be a scare. I put my shirt on but before I could button Waverly put her arms around me from behind. "You're beautiful Nicole." She whispered in my ear. I smiled and turned to face Waverly.
"Thank you for looking after me this last month. You didn't have to you know." I said putting my hands on her hips. She stepped back and looked shocked.
"Of course I did. I'm your girlfriend. I know you hate being put first but sometimes you have to." Waverly said. "Plus you now have an incredible scar which makes you sexy as hell."
"Thanks baby. I gotta get to work. If you don't mind I will stay at mine tonight, I have neglecting CJ a bit, you are more than welcome to join." I said picking up my jacket and heading downstairs.
"Rain check on tonight. With everything going on Wynonna and I haven't had a night together, but can we go to lunch together if you are free." Waverly said following me down.
"Course baby text at lunch." I said giving her a kiss. I headed out to go to work and waiting for me was a pile of paperwork. I got sat down when I saw Dolls walk through and into the BBD offices. I got up and headed for the offices. I knocked on the door and then walked in. "Hi Dolls. Um can I have a word with you about something." Dolls said.
"Sure what is up?" Dolls asked as he sat down.
"When widow Mercedes and Beth were killed um the one that was Mercedes mentioned the name Bulshar who is Sheriff Clootie's name and something triggered in me but I can't put my finger on it. I would ask Waverly but with everything that has happened with Wynonna and my injuries I don't want to worry her further." I explained whilst Dolls listened intently.
"Well I will look into it for you and let you know what I find. And don't worry I won't say anything to the Earps." Dolls said.
"Than you sir." I said walking out and returning to work. I continued with paperwork until about 1 then as I was about to call Waverly I saw her and Wynonna come into the offices. "Hey baby. Ready for lunch?" I asked.
"Yes where are we going?" She replied as I grabbed my jacket.
"The diner." She replied taking my hand.
"As you wish my princess. So how was your morning?" I asked as we headed in the direction of the diner.
"Good quiet got on with some housework, how was yours?" She replied.
"Lots and lots of paperwork." I replied. We walked for another 10 minutes in silence until we got to the diner. "After you." I said opening the door.
"Thank you." She said walking in. We sat in a booth near the back the place was quiet which wasn't surprising. We looked at our menu, in silence. A few minutes later a waiter walked up.
"Are you ready to order?" He asked.
"Yes can I have coke with a cheese burger please." I said looking at him. I then turned to Waves and said. "Waves."
"I'll have a coke as well and a pistachio salad please." Waves replied. The waiter took our menus and walked to the kitchen.
I grabbed Waverly's hand and asked. "Are you ok? You seem quieter."
"Can we talk after your shift." Waverly replied.
"Yeah of course Waves. I just want you to be ok." I said still worried.
