Sat in Steve's room waiting for him to return from his scan, Danny looked over to his sister who had nodded off in the chair, head resting in her hand as she lent on the arm of the chair while her knees were up by her chest where she seemed to have been getting into the best comfiest position not that she looked very comfy though it was probably first decent hours sleep that she had since Steve was admitted. Gently moving a blanket over her he sat in the chair on the other side of the bed and watched her briefly before looking up as Steve was wheeled back in by the doctor and a nurse. "How did it go?" Danny asked quietly looking to the doctor.
The doctor smiled. "I'll have a look at the scan pictures in more detail and come back in a bit. From what I've seen already there shouldn't be no lasting damage but I will look over them carefully to make sure. The wound is healing nicely and hopefully we will be able to keep the bandage off as long as the wound stops weeping. We'll be able to take the stitches out of the cheek in a few days. I'll be back in a bit." He smiled to him before leaving them alone.
Danny smiled and nodded. "Thanks doc." He smiled to him before looking to his friend. "Well that's good news." He beamed to Steve before relaxing back in the chair. "How you feeling?" He asked him, glancing briefly to his sister to see that she was still sleeping peacefully in the chair before looking back to Steve.
Steve gave a slight nod. "I'm okay…bit tired but I'm okay. Just want to remember the last four years…" He smiled to him before he looked over to Sam before looking to Danny. "Is that?" He whispered to him.
"Your wife?" Danny asked with a smile. "Yeah that's her."
Steve raised an eyebrow and looked back to her once more. Even though he did see her when he first woke up nothing really registered back then. And looking at her now while she was sleeping…she really was beautiful. Looking to his friend he frowned slightly. "How the hell is she related to you? She's gorgeous and you're…well you."
Danny laughed a little and looked to him. "You watch yourself." He told him before smiling and nodding. "But yet…I will admit she is the prettiest out of us all." He chuckled before frowning. "Don't you dare ever tell her I said that."
"Secret is safe with me." Steve promised with a chuckle before he then relaxed back and let a yawn pass his lips.
Getting up from his seat he smiled. "You get some rest. I'm going to grab something to eat because I'm starving."
"Bring us back something will you? I might have forgotten the last four years but I do know hospital food sucks" Steve asked with a hopeful smile.
Danny smiled and gave a nod to him. "I'll see what I can do." He smiled and looked to his sister before looking to Steve and smiled pointing to him. "Don't you go waking her up."
Steve smiled. "I won't. I'll wait till after my nap." He mused with a smile to him.
Danny smiled and left the room, gently closing the door behind him.
Steve smiled to himself before he watched him go before he then looked to his wife sleeping in the chair. He knew he felt something for her just by looking at her. There was just something there. Though he didn't have a clue how he managed to pull her! She was stunning! Relaxing back in the bed more he let his eyes fall on his wife as he just watched her sleep. He was tired but he didn't want to go to sleep…he just couldn't help but watch her. She was hypnotising. It was quite overwhelming.
Eyes fluttering open sometime later, Sam frowned a little at the blanket around her before she lifted her head up and looked over to the bed, seeing Steve watching her, she bought her head back down on the hand she was resting on to sleep. "You know staring is kinda creepy." She teased with a smile to him.
"I'd call it gazing." Steve whispered with a smile to her before sighing. "I'm sorry I don't remember you…or the kids…"
Lifting her head back up she sighed a little as she folded her arms across her chest a little, her feet dangling over the chair slightly. "It's not your fault. I'm just glad you're alive."
"Danny said you went home to get some things to help me remember…"
Sam nodded a little as she looked around for her bag. Getting up she grabbed the photo album from her bag and headed over to the bed and gave him a slight nudge. "Budge up. Not the first time we've shared a hospital bed."
Steve laughed a little as he moved up a little and looked to her. "We've shared a hospital bed?" He asked looking to her with a soft smile.
Sam smiled and nodded as she climbed onto the bed with him and got comfy next to him. "Yep. A few times." She admitted with a chuckle. "When I was in hospital after I ended up in a coma, you'd stay in the nights with me and when I woke up we'd squeeze up together on the bed. Then when we had Alfie, I had to stay in for a few days cause I had a section and you'd stay with me, then when we had Lily." She smiled to him. "Not so bad." She nudged him playfully before resting the album on her legs and flipped it open. "Our wedding…" She mused looking to him. "Well what we managed to get photos of…"
Steve smiled to her before he looked down to the album, his one arm draping behind her shoulders, smiling as she moved closer into him. It felt nice. He smiled to himself before he looked to her. "You were pregnant on our wedding day?"
"Heavily. Danny would joke I could never fit through doors. I only had a week left when we got married…" Laughed Sam as she looked to him. "But I had Alfie just a few hours after we were officially married and had our first dance. That was the only dance I managed." She told him with a chuckle. She didn't want to bring up the whole placenta abruptio…it was too complicated to explain! Not to mention it wasn't something she was keen on talking about herself. "We said we wanted to get married on our second anniversary… and we did. Two years we had been together and we tied the knot. It was on our first wedding anniversary that I told you I was pregnant again. There's nineteen months between the two of them." She explained with a smile to him before she then flipped the page of the album and glanced down to it once more.
"We wasted no time." Steve laughed looking to her.
"They weren't exactly planned and we are in no rush for another one." Sam laughed as she flicked through the album.
"We look so happy." Steve mused as he looked to the album.
Sam looked to him and smiled. "That's because we are happy Steve." She told him. "Very." She smiled and kept flicking through the album.
"Danny showed me that photo." He mused as he pointed to the one of them all in hospital when Sam had Lily.
Sam nodded and smiled. "Lily's birth. She was a couple of weeks early but healthy…you were my rock through my entire labour. I wouldn't have been able to get through it if it wasn't for you." She smiled to him before she looked back down as she turned the page once more. "This was our honeymoon…curtesy of Danny and the others seeing as we didn't have one when we first initially got married. We went to Mexico for ten days. These were the only photos we managed to take." She smiled to him once more before passing him the album.
Steve smiled as he listened to her, trying his hardest to remember but right now he couldn't. Sighing to himself he then smiled to her as he took the album from her and smiled down to the photos as he looked at each of them individually with great care. It was still hard to believe that this beautiful woman was his but he was happy that she was. She was beautiful. She seemed kind and funny... not to mention he did have two beautiful children with her. What more could he want?
