"Sweetheart, you need to be resting. Doc discharged you two days ago."

Who is that speaking?

I hear a sniffle before the voice of an angel whispers, "I know, but it's been nearly two weeks, Phil. Why hasn't he woken up yet?"

I hear a sigh as Momma's voice enters the room. "Olivia!"

I hear a chuckle. "Uh-oh, someone's in trouble."

"Damn right, she is. Why are you not on club property, safe?"

I hear a sigh that goes straight to my fucking heart. "Because I wanted to see Jonny."

Fuck did she just call me my given name?

"Besides, I'm safe now…I made sure of that, didn't I."

I hear Momma sigh. "Liv?—"

She cuts Momma off. "I know, you don't need to say it, but it doesn't stop my conscience, Rose."

I feel a pressure on my shoulder as my whole body tingles and relaxes all at once before, once again, darkness takes me.

Beep, Beep, Beep.

Fucking beeping sound is just getting annoying now. I hear a sniffle, a woman talking, but it's muffled like my ears are underwater. I feel a small body against mine, and I start to blink my eyes before a blinding light hits my eyes, making me groan as I notice I'm in a hospital. I hear a gasp from my right, and I slowly turn my head, making eye contact with the most beautiful fucking woman I've ever seen.

Fuck, is she’s my nurse?

"Jonny…." she whispers, and I squeeze my eyes tight, hoping I don't get hard by the sound of her voice.

I croak, "It's Smokey, darling…" making her let out a sob, and I look at her with a furrowed brow.

She has a yellow bruise on the side of her face, her wrists are bandaged up, and as she steps toward the bed and presses the buzzer, I notice her limp on her right leg.

"Who are you?" I rasp in confusion as the door opens and Doc rushes in. He curses, hearing my question as the woman's tears fall. She's not dressed in scrubs; she’s in jeans and a shirt I'm pretty sure is mine.

"Smokey, brother…" Doc murmurs, causing me to look at him. His eyes show absolute pain before a head pops up from my shoulder, and a little girl with blue eyes and bright red hair like the woman next to me grins before squealing, "Daddy!"

My eyes widen in shock.

I'm not a father…. Am I?

Olivia – Two Weeks Later

I take a deep breath as I sit next to Jonny's bed, my eyes on him and our girl. April is cuddled up next to him, not wanting to leave him. Yesterday, she screamed the place down as Phil took her home with a still-smarting Cannon following behind. He still refuses to talk to Rose after she injected him with something to knock him out.

She killed Cherrie, and I killed….

I blink, not wanting to think about her or the blood…so much blood….

Two weeks, that's how long Jonny's been in a coma since Cherrie hit him over the head. When I woke in absolute agony, Doc expressed how lucky I was to be alive, that the bat had broken two of my ribs, which still screamed at me.

One of the ribs nicked my left lung.

April could have lost me, all because two women thought they were above the law, acting out for a man who didn't want them, and that is a hard pill to swallow. Two people died, one was in a coma, and one was injured, all because of jealousy.
