Nicholas pov

I was crying just sitting on my bed in the room. I was missing Diana.

I wake up to dad shaking me.

" what's up you are crying?"Dad asked.

I was in the hospital, I looked at myself I was 8. Not 18. I started breathing heavily. And started feeling short of breath.

"Get me oxygen". Dad shouted.

I started breathing more heavily.

" Nick look at me breathe". Dad said.

I couldn't keep up with him. He had me lay down on the chairs and a minute later, he placed a mask on my face.

"Don't fight this breathe it in". Dad said in a calming voice.

I breathed that in and in some minutes I was breathing Good.

He removed the mask and hugged me tightly.

"Dad where is Diana?" I ask.

"She is still not awake, but she might be soon." He said.

"She is alive?" I ask.

"Nick this is not a joke". Day said in a stern voice. He could go from being caring to stern in a minute.

" I had a nightmare that she was dead and like I was grown up and still crying in guilt that she died cause she saved me," I say.

"She is not dead, okay?". He said taking my hand in his.

" Yeah, can I see her?". I ask.

"She is not awake but". He was saying but was interrupted by monitors beeping. He ran there. I followed him running.

Diana was waking up she was slowly opening her eyes.

"Diana it's me dad. Do something if you can hear me". Dad said walking up to her and holding both her hands.

Diana pov

I was waking up. It was hard to open my eyes.

" Diana it's me dad. Do something if you can hear me". He said taking my both hands in his hands.

I could hear him. So I just squeezed his hands. He sighed in relief.

I could hear someone else come into the room.

"Sam, is she up yet"? The man who put me to sleep asked. I could recognize his voice.

" Yeah, she squeezed my hands". Dad says.

"All right you need to go out now I need to do a full workup now". He said to dad.

" I just wanna say something to her can I"? Nick asked.

"Sure". That man said.

" I am so sorry Di". He whispered in my ear.

I groaned as it hurt but nodded.

"Nick come on we need to get out". Dad said.

They both went out.

"All right Diana I am Bradley, and I need you to open your eyes slowly". He said.

I try opening them. They were heavy it was hard. I could see everything now.

" Good. Now I am gonna try and remove this tube in your mouth it's helping you breathe so if you feel short of breath just tell me". He said.

I nodded. He put gloves on and put his hands on the tube.

"Blow on 3". He said.

I nod again.

" 1,2,3". He said and I blew air hard. The tube came out and I started coughing as he took it out.

I felt better.

"It hurts".I say.

"Where?" He asks.

"Stomach". I say.

"That might be the stitches just itching but let's check it better than sorry". he said lifting my gown a bit. 

"What is it?" I ask

"Just some redness I will get the meds going don't worry". he said and asked me a few more questions about what happened. 

" I am hungry". I say after some time.

"Alright I will get you something it will be something light due to the surgery". He said getting up.

" Okay, can I see dad and nick?". I ask.

"Sure.". He said and got out.

Dad and Nick came in after a while.

Nick came up to me and started crying.

" I am so sorry Di".He said.

"It's okay dumbo I am good". I say.

" Well, memory is good". Dad said.

We both laughed. I winced as it hurt to laugh.

Dumbo was a nickname I gave to Nick when we were 4.

Bradley bought some food for me. After he went out.

"Dad what's this?". I asked.

" Hospital food AKA salad". He said

" I don't wanna eat it". I said.

"You have to. You need all this nutrition after the blood you lost". He said.

" Diana are you okay?". Aaliyah asked.

"Go out please". Nick said.

" I think we do need to talk outside". Dad said.

"Okay". They said.

" Nick if anything happens I am right outside". Dad said as he went outside with Chris and Aaliyah.
