What was he thinking? How strong can you be when your own husband wants you dead.
Grace Pov
Grace woke up with a headache, she had been in the darkness for two days, one day ago the man that called himself Mark had given him a phone to ring Josh on and tell him that she was being held hostage and just over an hour ago or so she thought Josh and the rest of the team had rescued her from the physco man. She had been shot in the stomach by the man before he was shot dead by Josh. Grace willed to open her eyes but couldn't she could hear heavy breathing that she recognised as Josh's next to her, and his hand curled around hers.
"please Grace, you cant leave me. Please open your eyes or just squezze my hand so I can tell that you can hear me" Grace did what she was instructed, well she tried to she tried with all her might to open her eyes but again her body failed her. Grace heard the door open and one set of shoes walk into the room. "do you know why she isn't coming out of the coma?"
"her mind is trying to heal itself, you weren't able to get anything out of her about what happened so her mind might be trying to heal itself before she wakes up, but for the extenet of her injuries there wasn't any sexual assault so that was a very good sign"
"Can she hear me?"
"Of course she is probably listening to us talking, but try not to talk about anything stressing cause it probably wont help her condition"
"thank you" she heard the footsteps exit the room and Josh's soft lips come down on her head, he pulled away a little while after that. "I am sorry I wasn't there Gracie, I will protect you from now on I promise"
A little while later another person entered the room and spoke "Hey Josh, Kerry said to go home and take a shower and get some stuff for Grace when she wakes up" Came Stella's voice
"I am fine Stella, I am waiting for her until she wakes up"
"Josh, I am pretty sure if there was a law for hygene than I would be arresting you right now. You haven't taken a shower in two or three days and you really stink I cant imagine how Grace is putting up with it, if it was me I would be waking up just by the smell of you"
"Thanks for the confidence boost but who will wait beside her until I get back?"
"Well Josh me and Grace haven't been best friends but I do care for her so I will stay with her"
"Fine but I am going to kill Kerry later"
"Okay just make sure I am there with you cause if it wasn't for Kerry than Grace wouldn't be here in the first place"
"you actually like Grace don't you?"
"Well I don't like what you guys did to Connor but yeah I do like her and for anyone who can put up with you then I congradulate her"
"Fine I am leaving but you ring me straight away if anything changes"
"Okay now go" she could feel Josh's lip come down on her forehead again then she heard his footsteps retreating out the door, before she could hear Stella sit down beside her and she felt Stella's hand wrap around her right hand.
