Tina stood at Bette’s bedside holding onto her hand waiting
on her waking up; she gently touched Bette’s cheek. “I love you baby, so much”

Taylor walked into the room.

“Hey” Taylor smiled “She should be awake soon then I can
take the tube out”

“She’s going to be ok now right?” Tina asked

“I hope so, I’m going to keep a close eye on her this week
and make sure we got the entire tumour but I’m positive she’ll make a great
recovery” Taylor said as she filled in Bette’s chart

“Where are Amy and Nathan?” Tina asked

“Nathan is with Alan and Aiden at reception and Amy is with
Jacqui, Jess and Spencer in Jacqui’s office” Ashley smiled entering the room “I
just came to check up on things”

“Things are good, it’s in Bette’s hands now to wake up”
Taylor smiled “Vitals are all good, I’m pleased”

“I’m glad to hear it” Ashley smiled

“Right guy’s I’m going to go home and get showered and some
sleep I’m in early tomorrow! Unless you want me to stay Amy?” Spencer said

“No don’t be silly you need to sleep” Amy said

Spencer leaned down hugging her best friend. “I’m only a
text message away okay, stay strong”

Spencer hugged Jess and Jacqui and then left Jacqui’s
office.

Amy sat back down and cuddled into Jacqui

“You hungry?” Jacqui asked

Amy nodded no.

“What a surprise” Jacqui smiled

“I couldn’t stomach anything just yet babe, I’ll eat
something later”

“I forgot about eating, I’m going to go make sure Nathan’s
had something” Jess said

Jess got up leaving the office and closing the door behind
her.

“Baby” Amy said looking up at her wife “Have you heard from
Paul? How are the twins?”

“They’re okay babe; Paul said we’ve just to focus on making
sure their nana B is okay”

“Ok” Amy said cuddling back in “I love you and thank you for
always catching me”

“Look at me” Jacqui said as she took Amy’s face in her hands
“I’ll always catch you and I’ll always be there to protect you, always and
forever…remember?” Jacqui smiled wiping away some tears from Amy’s face before
gently kissing her wife “I love you too”

“I think I better go check on my brother” Amy said getting
up “he needs me”

“Ok let’s go” Jacqui smiled getting up and wrapping her arm
around Amy as they walked down to reception.
