-----ASHLEY'S POV-----

I watched as Meaghan's chest rose and fell, indicating she was breathing, indicating she was alive. I rolled the bottle of pain killers, given to me by the doctor, back and forth in my hands. I stood up and began to pace back and forth. I soon felt a kind, small hand on my shoulder. I turned and was facing Kaitlyn.

She smiled, placing her hand on my face to calm me. I placed my hand over hers and smiled back. It's so strange how she was literally like a sister to me. She would jokae around with me, tease me, and comfort me when I needed it. I'm really glad Andy met her.

"Hey," Kaitlyn explained, "I'm going to run down the hall and grab me some chips. You want anything?"
"No, maybe some coffee. Take Jinxx with you, he knows how I like it."

I watched as they vanished down the hall, talking and giggling. Focusing my attention back on Meaghan, I couldn't help but sigh. I should have wrapped my arm around her. I shouldn't have let her fall. I sat down and let my head fall into my hands.

I jumped when I heard my phone beep. I had recieved a text from Andy. I unlocked it and began to reply.

Andy: Sup Purdy?
Me: Nm, Biersack. Meaghan just got out of surgery.
Andy: That's good. Just remember to be gentle with her, man.
Me: Yeah, I know... :/
Andy: Hey, that stitch is my thing!

I turned around and Andy was leaning against the door frame. He had a playful grin on his face. It melted when he saw the guilt in my eyes. He sat beside me and patted my back.

"She's still pretty, man," he explained, "and she's still yours."
"I-you know what, she is." I said proudly.

I stood up and walked to the side of her bed. I held Meaghan's hand and her head tilted towards me. Her eyes fluttered open and I smiled. SHe didn't smile back though, she frowned. She almost started crying, until I got an idea.

I stripped down to my boxers and ran to the left, out the door. I was screaming "I am Captain America!" When I reached the end of the hall, I turned around and ran to the other end. I passed by Meaghan's room and saw her looking at me confused. I turned and ran the other way. I repeated this three more time until I saw Meaghan laughing. I came back into the room and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.

"Nice job," Andy laughed. "Now put on some pants!"
"No!"
"Don't make me get the guys to hold you down!" Andy chuckled as Jake and Jinxx entered the room.
"No!" I repeated.

Soon I was on my back. Andy was holding my wrists while Jinxx held my sides. I was squirming like a bug that had been sprayed with alcohol. I soon felt warmth on my legs and realized, I had been defeated. The guys let me go and I stood up pouting.

-----TIME LAPS (an hour)-----

Meaghan was laying on the bed that the guys had set up in the back lounge watching movies while I was making her some dinner. I made her a burger with lettuce, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. I even added some fries to the side. I had Jinxx make her a strawberry milkshake. I brought her the fodd and saw she was asleep. I set the plate of food down, along with the drink, and sat besides her on the bed.

"Meaghan," I whispered. "It's time to get up."
"Hmm?" she groaned, waking up.
"I made you some dinner," I said bringing her the food and milkshake.
"Thank you, Ashley."
"No problem, sweet heart. We can count this as our 'picnic'."
"I guess it counts," she said when she finished her meal.

I took the plate from her and went to leave when she grabbed my wrist. I sat the plate down and looked at her confused. She pulled me close and nuzzled her face into my abs, since I was standing. I thought for a moment then realized she wanted me to stay.

I smiled and stripped down to my boxers. I took off my necklace and wrist bands, setting them on the vanity. I rejoined Meaghan at the bed. She looked so cute and innocent. I noticed she was eyeing my shirt. I got another idea.

I held out my hands for Meaghan and she took them, smiling. I gently and carefully pulled her up. Being as gentle as possible, I stripped her down to her bra and panties. I dropped to my knees when I saw her bruised side. I placed a feather light kiss on her ribs and she moaned softly, making me chuckled.

I grabbed my t-shirt and slid over her head and down her body. She untucked her hair from the shirt and kissed me softly. I carefully scopped her up, bridal style, and layed her back down in the bed. I crawled in with her and covered us both with the blanket. I scooted down and layed my head on her chest. I heard her giggle and she played with my hair. We remained in this position all the way to the venue as we watched movies on Netflix.
