Missouri woke up in the infirmary, she sat up and felt a shooting pain through her abdomen she cringed and saw figures in the room. Her vision was blurry she saw the light and it hurt her eyes she blinked multiple times and her vison cleared up and she saw the reds and blues in the room leaning closer to see if she was really awake.

" A-Are you awake Maze?" Wash asked getting closer. Missouri looked at him.

" Wha- What happened?" She asked sitting up even more.

" You've been in a coma." Simmons said worriedly. Missouri's eyes widened

" WHAT HOW LONG WAS I OUT?" They all looked down. It was silent until York piped up.

" You've been out for two months maze." York said grabbing her hands.

" WHA- NO!" She said trying to get out of bed, she managed to get out of the beds and take a few steps until her legs wobbled and she fell in Tuckers arms.

" Bow chicka bow wow."

" I-I missed you too tucker." She said smiling. She looked around the room and saw everybody except Grif. " Hey where's Grif?" She asked perking up. Tucker looked at her then at the others. They all gave a nod and Tucker sighed

" He well accidently shot you and saved you." Tucker said laying her back down on the bed and stepping away after earning himself a glare from Wash. " You really don't remember?"

" No No I remember."

" He shot you and by the time we got there we thought you bled out he carried you back and started to panic he went to his room about the time we started surgery and he barley comes out to eat." He said lifting up her shirt to see how her wound. She kicked him in the jaw line and he stumbled back.

" OW! We needed to check your wound." Wash said rubbing his jaw. Missouri put her hands over her mouth.

" OH MY GOSH WASH I'M SO SORRY I DIDNT KNOW WHAT YOU WERE DOING!" She said getting out of bed and stumbling over to him. She took his helmet off and rubbed his jaw line gently, he eased a little and lifted her shirt to see that the wound was partially healed. It was close to her breast it was under them that's why she kicked wash she thought he was trying to look at her breast.

" Its okay maze. Do you want to see Grif?" He asked taking her hand. She nodded and let Wash lead the way to Grif's room. They all stopped at the door and told her to knock and when she did they all ran except wash that was holding her up grif came to the door and opened it and his eyes widened.

" M-MAZE?!" He asked hugging her.

" Yeah, its me careful." She weezed

" Oh sorry I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE OKAY!" Grif said smiling widely he was thinner than normal. Missouri looked at him and smiled.

" I'm Glad I'm okay too I really wanted to go swimming again." She said smiling. Grif laughed and blushed then saw the bruise on Washes jaw.

" Whoa, Wash, what happened?"

" She kicked me when I looked at her wound." He said smiling. Grif chuckled and looked back at Missouri.

Would you like to go get something to eat?" She asked raising a brow. Grif smiled.

" Took the words right out of my mouth." He said smiling he started to help Wash carry her into the kitchen.

" Am I that heavy?" She asked being the smaller one of the group.

" No, we just like helping." They said in unison glaring at one another

" Okay, You can put me down now I can stand to cook." They nodded and she instantly went to work. Grif went and sat at the table and started to talk to Wash. ' I'm glad they're not mad at each other!' She thought as she cooked some eggs, bacon, biscuits, and sausage.

" You guys want an omelet?" They both said yes and continued to talk.

" Hey Washy can you go get the others and ask them what they want?"

" Sure Maze." He said walking down the hall. Grif looked over at Missouri she was busy taking biscuits out of the oven, she set them on the counter and put the eggs on the stove along with the bacon while that was cooking she went into the refrigerator and set out the sausage. Grif walked into the kitchen and stood out of her way and started to speak.

" Uhh- m-maze?

" Yes Grif?" She asked putting an omelet on a plate. He began to get nervous.

" I-i'm sorry-"

" I forgive you Grif I know you were trying to protect me so don't sweat it! its just a tiny battle scar right?" She asked flipping the bacon. The others came in and sat down then looked at the two in the kitchen. They all smiled.

" They have a lot of catching up to do." Church said smiling as she came in and gave everybody their plates.

" THANK YOU MAZE!" They all said in unison then they looked at me.

" You don't have a plate kind lady Maze." Caboose said concerned. Missouri nodded

" I'm not hungry but I'll eat with yall though." She said getting up and going into the kitchen. She came back with a plate then the men watched her sit down then they dug in she ate with her friends laughing and talking they finished their breakfast and she took the plates to the kitchen Grif and Wash helped put them in the sink. She thanked them and they nodded she told them the could go The nodded and left her in the kitchen all by her self. She started to clean up the kitchen while the rest of the men had went to their rooms to take a nap she felt a pair of warm arms wrap around her slender waist, she froze

" I missed you."
