Chapter 85

Silence

"You want to get up?" He asked grabbing his smokes from the beside table. Was it day light outside already? Why do I feel so tired?

"I could murder a coffee" I yawned dying to stretch my limbs but knowing it would hurt to much.

"You want to come with or are you okay staying here?" He asked getting out of bed and pulling on his jeans. When did he take them off?

What was he going to think if I tell him I'm to afraid to be on my own? Even though I know I'm safe and no one can get me here I still don't want to be left alone.

"Babe?" He questioned knocking me out of my thoughts.

"Can I come with?" I asked as he began to pull the covers off my legs. As he carefully lifted me into his arms a thought popped into my head.

"Didn't they give me crutches?" Surely they did I mean I have a broken leg and can't walk.

"Yeah but I like carrying you" He grinned as he walked us into the kitchen. Sitting me on the counter he went to fix us some coffee while I just stared at him. Hearing the thumping and the hissed voices my eyebrows creased.

"He'll go nuts if you wake her" Jared whispered as he walked into the kitchen Cage following behind him.

"Wake who?" I smiled taking the steaming hot cup from Blaze.

"Never mind she's awake. How you doing sweet tits?" Cage smirked earning him a slap around the head from Blaze.

Sweet tits?

"I'm great needle dick" I grinned causing Blaze to choke on his coffee. "That's my girl" He winked as I looked at him from over my cup.

"You're funny but seriously how you feeling?" He asked rubbing at his head.

"Sore" I shrugged "But alive". What else could I say?

"Fucking not right" Jared piped up "Look at her Blaze! When are we going to hit back man?"

"Jared" Blaze hissed his eyes going from Jared's to mine. Did I really look that bad? I hadn't looked at my face yet.

"No fucking wonder! They had the nerve to run our prez' daughter off the road and we're doing fuck all about it?" "Jared not here" Blazed snapped

"Its not right is all am saying. We should be out gunning for blood"

"And we fucking will" My dad growled making me jump. When did he come in?

"Ava" He asked his eyes going wide when he saw me sitting there. "Why the fuck are you out of the hospital?".

Wait so if he didn't tell my dad he brought me home? That means.....

"What? Ava Maria Mendez you need to get your butt back to the hospital right now".

He didn't tell my mom... great!

"I'm fine" I sighed

"How are you even.... You" My moms eyes fell into slits as she pointed at Blaze "I know you want to win her back but taking her from the hospital when she has just woken from being unconscious for that amount of time is stupid" She snapped "What is she to do when she's in pain? What happens if something goes wrong?".

"Mom" I sighed

"What if she gets an infection or her stitches burst?"

"Mom I'm-..." Wait what stitches?.....

"Honest to god I sometimes wonder where men get their fucking brains from" She cursed shaking her head before leaving the kitchen.

"I thought she'd be safer here prez and Ally is close by if she needs medication. We can keep a closer eye on her if she's here" Blaze muttered talking as if I wasn't in the room.

Glancing at my dad I noticed he wasn't even listening to what Blaze was saying. He was staring of into the distance deep in thought. Taking a puff of his smoke he muttered something under his breath, cursed a few times and then left the room.

This wasn't him this isn't how my dad acts and it was worrying.

"What's wrong with my dad?" I croaked swallowing the lump in my throat.

"Don't worry darlin' he always gets like that when he's thinking" Blaze said coming to stand beside me.

Shaking it off I placed my hand on top of his shoulder. "Can you take me to the toilet?" I asked. I really needed to check myself over in the mirror to see how bad I actually was.

"Well getting washed is going to be fun" I said as Blaze placed me on the bed. Thinking about it there really was no way I was going to be able to wash myself not with a broken hand and leg. "Sponge bath?" He smirked leaning against the drawers.

"Looks like it" I shrugged "I can't get my casts wet so yeah it'll be sponge baths for a while and before you say it no you can't" I grinned watching the smirk fall from his face.

"You want me to get your mom?" He asked

"Can you get my crutches please? I need to see if I can use them" I needed to see how hard it was going to be to get around on them. Nodding his head he disappeared out the door.

Where I was sitting I was in line with the full length mirror that I have never seen before. When did he get that? Taking a deep breath I lifted up the hospital gown I was still wearing to see a white gauze taped over my side. I was scared to see what it was like underneath.

As I started peeling back the tape Blaze walked back into the bedroom. "You sure you wanna take it off just now?" He asked

"When did you get that put in here?" I asked nodding my head towards the mirror. Hissing I forgot how nippy taking medical tape of your skin was.

"For you getting out, Ava I think you should leave that for a few more days" He winced as I finally got the bottom piece detached from my skin.

"Can you help me up so I can get a better look at it?"

"Was my side ripped open?" I asked running my finger over the 9 stitches that lay there. "Stupid question of course it was" I said pulling the tape completely off before he could even answer.
