Chase's PoV

I stayed the night with her, not once even blinking from the sleep that gnawed at me like a famished monster. Ross and Ray came back later and to my surprise Raymond took the information of Yrene and I's past pretty well. I mean of course, unless we count, "what the fuck? That was illegal! Did you manipulate her?" As hostile. But otherwise he calmed down due to a reason unknown to me and I was glad that he didn't get worked up more than he had. Two more nights passed and she was still as lifeless as a block. Her brother's came back every night and stayed, as a matter of fact they were still here. Arguing as usual.
"Ray... Man go to the office. You can't neglect your work."
"I'm the CEO, I'm sure I can go in and out as I please, besides my sister needs me with her."
"Fine. Suit your stubborn ass."
The brothers bicker along and I stare at the limp body before me when something out of the extraordinary happens.

Yrene's PoV

It was painful. Extremely agonising. But I gritted my teeth and did it anyways; I feel a jolt and although thorough the doctors' conversations I could tell I was under anaesthetics, I still felt an excruciating pain in my left wrist as my torn sole became one with my broken body. I felt my body jerk and in an instant Chase, who had been watching over me since the first night, was up from his seat, racing to the intercom in order too call the doctor. I want to open my eyes, to look around but my eyelids seem heavier than bricks and won't open more than the tiniest slit. My mouth is dry as parchment and as if hearing my thoughts the nurse and Ross rush to me with water; Ross is crying as is Raymond as they make their way to me, sitting on either side of my stretcher.
"It's gonna be okay, Yr." Ray strokes my hair as Ross kisses my hand repeatedly.
"I'm so glad you're back, Yr. so fucking glad! You little bitch you don't even know how much I want to smack you for this!" Ross says and his use of colourful language earns him a smack from Raymond and a wan smile from me. Chase returns with the doctor, a huge Cheshire Cat like smile spread across his stubbled face as he runs towards me and kisses my forehead for full three minutes before smacking me upside the head.
"You had us all scared to death, you midget!"
I give him a wan smile as I revel in the fact that my eyes are fully open. I look around the spacious hospital room which is filled with flowers of all kinds; white hydrangeas, tube roses, roses of every colour, tulips and many others I couldn't name. The doctor sets my bed to an angle so that I can sit up and the moment I do sit up, I see my three best friends with their noses on the glass window, nudging each other. With a laugh I beckon them to come in and they do; I open my arms wide enough for all three of them to hug me and they oblige me.
"Careful with that left wrist now!" The doctor reprimands as I wince in pain when Joss moves his big head.
Months of estrangement dissolve into nothingness as they pull me in even closer and that is when I know that these people, that are surrounding me are the people that love me more than anything; the people that wanted me to live.

After some days under observation I was finally getting discharged and I couldn't have been more ecstatic about it.
"So you're leaving today,darling." It was more of a statement than a question from nurse Andy, the living epitome of kindness and assuredly my favourite nurse out of all those who had attended to me.
"Yep!" I say popping the 'p' as I nod eagerly and give her a tight bear hug as she sighs in a sad manner.
"What?" I question her; eyebrows raised.
"Nothing... I'll just miss you little woman."
"Awwww I'll miss you to Momma Bear!" I hug her tighter as she finally starts to laugh.
"Yrene, sweetie, you will think about what I said yesterday right?"
I paused to collect my thoughts and I actually had thought about it; even made up my mind but I felt like I could use some more time to ponder on her suggestion and so as to answer her question I simply nod and give her my best smile. She kisses either if my cheek before Ross barges in through the door and hugs me, lifting me off the floor and spinning me around.
"Time to go home baby sister!"
I smack him for being so slope and he smacks me back before I hug Andy for the last time and start to move out.
