Hospital, hours after the Clubbing incident

MVP was able to get to Don's room to check up on his protege. He was able to see that the doctors were able to patch Don up and get some blood back into him.

Doctor: May I know who you are?

MVP: Hassan Assad, I'm his mentor

Doctor: Good you are here. Patient's being infused with blood at the moment so his body is regaining blood. We stitched him up and he will be ready to be discharged after the overnight stay.

MVP: Thank you Doctor. May I keep watch?

Doctor: Of course, Mr. Assad, or should I say, MVP. My son watches and is a fan of yours.

MVP: Oh uh..thanks. But sadly, now is not the time for an autograph or a photo.

Doctor: Of course. - walks away -

MVP then drags the couch near Don's hospital bed.

MVP: Hey Donny. That was some really reckless fighting out there. But glad to see that you were able to fend them off or try to on your own while defending Liv. 

Don: - coming to - Mentor?

MVP: You're back! But you need to rest here first. Doctor's orders.

Don: I see.... wait where's Liv? Ruby? Why am I in the hospi - grabs head -

MVP: Donny, Donny, Hey! Relax. You nearly lost a lot of blood after that idiot smashed a beer bottle on your forehead while you rescued Liv. Now not to worry, I paid for the damages and they won't press charges against us, but against the 6 fools who tried to have their way with Ruby and Liv. 

Don: Mentor! I should have paid, not you!

MVP: Donny, I will let you take care of your hospitalization. But the bar part since our reservation was under my name, I had to pay.

Don: You shouldn't have. I was the one who got beaten but you still bailed me out.

MVP: Patricio! I know I have taught you well in the art of chivalry but let this one slide. But I must say, you did a number on those guys who tried to molest Liv.

Don: - chuckles - Yes. A girl should never be taken advantaged of like that. But wait, where are they?

MVP: Oh, Ruby and Liv are in the hotel being tended to by Lashley and Cedric. Now not to worry, if anything, those two are more than capable to tend to those who need sobering up. 

Don: I see. - closes eyes - Glad you bailed us all out of that.

MVP: Oh no. Glad you really man up at the right time to save your woman. Now go sleep so you can be discharged tomorrow.

timeskip to Tuesday Morning

The doctors have cleared Don Patricio after they saw in the monitoring and charts that his blood is back in normal levels. MVP helped Don to the car since Don had to wear a bandage on his head due to the beer bottle smash.

Don: Which room is Liv sleeping at?

MVP: Oh uh... just rest up. You may be feeling light headed after that hospital stay

Don: Not helping, mentor.

Hotel corridor of Riott Squad's and Don's Rooms.

MVP was helping Don to his room when Lashley met up with them.

Lashley: Donny, looks like you survived the night. 

MVP: No shit Roberto! Donny here kicked the asses of those trying to take his woman. Man's a hero - pats Don's shoulder - and I taught him quite well.

Don: Mentor, no need to keep singing my praises. My head still hurts. Wait, what of the Riott Squad?

Lashley: Oh, Ruby's being taken care of by Shelton in her room. As for Liv...

Cedric: - walks into the corridor - Hey P, Berto, - sees Don - Donny! You're back. 

Don: You were saying Bobby?

Lashley: Rather have Cedric continue.

Cedric: Oh right, Donny, we had to use your room for me to keep watch over Liv. And...

Don had mixed emotions. Sure he wanted to check up on her, but his Hurt Business brothers did not ask him if they can use his room. 

Don: Gionna! - walks fast to his room but stopped by Cedric -

Cedric: Easy there Don Romantico! You just got blood back into your body after that nasty beer bottle shot. - wraps Don's shoulder around him - Allow me to escort you.

Don: Thanks...I guess.

Don Patricio's room

Don was able to walk in and see that Liv's bags are in there as well and he looked to Cedric for explanations. Before he talked, Cedric fires away.

Cedric: Patricio, you've got to understand man. She got me tired...not in the way you're thinking. I'm married!

Don: Then why is she here?

Cedric: Ruby's been throwing up in her room per Shelton. Having two of them on the same bed like this will be hard on us to tend to. Plus, you deserve her thanks upon waking up. Not me. 

Don: Damnit Cedric this is not the right time!

As they talked near the bed, they did not notice that Liv was coming too and waking up, realizing she had on the clothes she wore at the club.

Liv: Cedric? D..Donny?

Cedric and Don saw Liv slowly sitting up on the bed, clutching her head.

Liv: Fuck... I didn't know what happened last night. - sees Don with a bandage - Donny, your forehead...oh no. It's coming back to me - tears flowing - 

Cedric: It's on you now man. I have to go buy two sets of burgers and fries from the nearest fast food joint. - walks away -

Don approaches Liv on the bed, with Liv hugging Don.

Liv: Fuck - breaks the hug -  my head hurts but it doesn't compare to what you went through. - notices bandage on his head - Donny, what happened? All I could recall is some douche offered me a drink and then I couldn't recall all else.

Don: - hugs back - Liv. Someone spiked your drink last night and did the same to Ruby...

Liv: - stood up - Rue Rue! - head still throbbing and sat back down on the bed - Owww

Don: Don't worry, nothing worse happened to her. Apart from falling to the spiked cocktail. You were almost taken away had it not been for mentor and the rest of the Hurt Business. 

Liv: You stopped the one who almost had me? - teary eyed -

Don: - tries to keep the bandage on his forehead - Yes. - smiles weakly - I stopped him but not on my own. Mentor bought time for me to do the bastard in. 

Liv: Donny - hugs him with tears flowing down her eyes - I'm so sorry you all went through that all because of...

Don: - hugs back but holds her hands - No. Don't ever blame yourself for that. The moron had his brain in the wrong place and thought he could be big for bedding two women without their consent. He is no real man.

Liv looked at Don in the eyes and saw his genuine intentions and cried some more. Don just hugged her and let her out on his shoulder.

Don: Liv - rubs her back to calm her - shh. It's okay. We all go through that. But never put the blame on yourself. He was wrong for wanting you for what you wore that night and trying to have his way with you.

Cedric was able to return to the room and saw the scene.

Cedric: And two cheeseburgers and fries for - sees Don hugging Liv - Cassanova and Lady Gionna

Don: - death stares Cedric and mouths - not a good time bro!

Cedric: - reads Don's lips - Sorry about that. I will leave you two to your meal. And Gionna, Dory's fine now. She just woke up too and Shelton is taking care of her. Also she is already eating so best you two do too. I will be on my way. - walks out -

Don: Thanks Ced! - turns to Liv and grabs the food - Will some food make you feel better? - opens the to - go bag - 

Liv: - smells the food and grabs the to-go bag - Alright. Will you eat with me, Donny?

Don: It's my room after all - chuckles - but at least now we can eat together - smiles - I will get us some waters.

Liv: Oh no no! Allow me to get the waters. You just got hit bad on the head with something and you might not be so fine walking...

Don: Relax, Daddy. I can get us the waters. You're the one recovering from a hangover.

Liv was shocked that Don called her Daddy. Don saw this and quickly dialed it back.

Don: Sorry bout that...

Liv: No. You're good. You're a good man Patricio..I mean Donny. 

Don: Hey - hands her a glass of water - I find you interesting. I know of your history, not because I'm a creep but..Oh my goodness... - sweating -

Liv: Donny, it's fine - smiles after taking a sip of water - Everyone knows my past with Eric. I'm over it. I'm finding myself again anyway.

Don: - wipes the sweat - Liv, I hope you find yourself. I mean, I see in you a tough girl that nobody should EVER count out of a fight. You're wonderful and amazing the way you are.

Liv: - looks at him funny - Are you trying to bed me?

Don: - shocked - No! No, I don't go that way! Not after what happened to you after all...

Liv: I'm just kidding Donny. But hey, - sits beside him - I just want to thank you for saving me and Rue Rue. You and the Hurt Business did us a solid before things went ugly.

Don: - Bites at his burger  and swallows - Liv, you got no problem with me having to do that again, hopefully if the situation repeats. I will ensure no dirty minded, lecherous, cock for brain will dare defile you. 

Liv: I always wondered, - bites her burger - are you Italian? You got the mafia mobster thing down to a tee.

Don: Oh, no. I'm actually a Filipino. Mentor just gave me pieces of his MVP gimmick, then I pulled in some of my real life business owner lifestyle, well past lifestyle into the character. And that was how Don Patricio came to be - smiles -

Liv: Oooh. Always thought the character was Italian, but you are indeed interesting. If only I didn't have to recover from this hangover, we'd enjoy this conversation. - burps -

Don just laughs at Liv for burping and Liv was shocked.

Liv: You're not offended? That was so unladylike...

Don: For a girl who swears a lot, traps men in a Huggies and acts unhinged, you sure worry about some delicate details. You're good with me - smiles -

Liv: Donny! - hugs him from the side then sees the fries - Are you going to finish that?

Don: Oh! Not much of a fries guy but you do need the oil to help in lessening the alcohol in your body. Go ahead - hands her the pack of fries -

Liv: Yay!

Don and Liv ate away in the room. Little did they know, MVP and Lashley were outside hearing their conversation.

Lashley: Hey P, guess you raised and trained quite a good fellow there.

MVP: Nah Berto. Don is a really kind and honest man. I only taught him the ways in the ring. Outside of it, half from me, half from experience. He's a good kid. All I hope is that creative take my endorsement of him seriously.

Lashley: Why? - then realizes - Oh right. Sucks to be in our age huh?

MVP: Yeah, but in time, Patricio will understand.

That was Chapter 4.

I know. What the hell took so long. A lot of stuff happened between this and today. A LOT. 

Pardon if it is the shortest chapter I've got but it's all I can squeeze out at the moment. 

Long time since I have said this and trying to get my bearings again but, here goes.

Keep safe and stay awesome!
