THE NEXT DAY

Pepper and Eddie showed up at Sophie and Sky's at 8:30 for Hayley and Noah. They said they would take them for the day while Sophie and Sky had work. Sky was working all around the hotel while Sophie was at the front desk again, doing paperwork. Without her realizing it, Sam pulls up a seat next to her at 11.

"Hey." He whispers.

She jumps and looks at him.

"Hi." She responds as she sees the worrisome look in his eyes. "What is it?" She asks, knowing the main subject of it will be Adrian.

"Your mother." He starts as she sighs. "Talk to her, about him and everything that happened."

"I thought we agreed to never talk about it again." She reminds him, looking back to the papers.

"We did, but she needs it."

"It's not easy for me to talk about, Sam. I only told Sky because we have no secrets, Ali and Lisa tried asking me once and I literally walked away. Sky even knows not to bring it up when someone asks about our exes. There is a reason no body knows." She tells him, getting frustrated.

"Why didn't you tell her?"

"It wasn't something she needed to know, and I got rid of him once it happened. There was nothing she could do. It would only make her worry about me more every time I met a guy. I wasn't exactly easy to handle when I was 17."

"What do you mean you weren't easy to handle?"

Sophie looks at him. "Mum didn't tell you."

"Tell me what?"

"Nothing, it doesn't matter."

"Obviously it does."

She sighs as she thinks of what to say.

"I didn't make it easy for mum when I was 17, before I met Sky. I always kept her guessing about what I was doing, who I was with, where I was. Not easy for a single mother who runs a hotel to keep up. Talk to mum about it, she'll explain."

Sam smiles and nod his head.

"But you should talk to her, Soph."

Before Sophie can respond, they hear a noise come from the patio, like a glass breaking.

"Oh, my god." Sophie mumbles, standing up, looking outside.

Sam quickly follows.

"Seriously man, back off, you're drunk." Sky says, stepping back from Adrian.

"I'm not drunk." Adrian says.

"You just dropped a glass of beer and broke it." Sky reminds him. Sky turns around and walks away.

"Hey!" Adrian yells, getting Sky to face him.

Adrian runs towards him and tackles him to the ground. He punches Sky, but Sky quickly pushes him off. Adrian takes a swing at Sky, but he moves. Sky punches Adrian on the side the face. Sophie and Sam rush over to stop them while Adrian's friend watch. Sophie walks around his friends, walking up behind Adrian. As Adrian goes to take another swing at Sky, Sophie grabs his arm from behind. She twists it slightly and pushed it up his back, causing him to let out a whimper of pain. Sam quickly puts his hand up to Sky while another employee stands between them. Sky smiles, watching Sophie, when one of Adrian's friends picks up a glass and hits Sky over the head, causing him to fall to the ground unconscious. The employee quickly pushes the guy away while Sam tends to Sky. Sophie releases Adrian and rushes to Sky.

"Sky." She says, moving his hair out of the way to see the cut on the side of his forehead.

Other employees had rushed over once they saw what was going on. They were all now making sure Adrian and his friends left the hotel and went to the ferry, waiting until the ferry left before they went back to the hotel.

"Sophie, Sam, what happened?" Donna asks when she sees Sky on the floor unconscious.

Paramedics arrive right after Donna does.

"What happened?" One of the paramedics ask, looking at the gash on Sky's head.

"There was a fight, and someone hit him with a glass. He fell to the ground and has been unconscious for 10 minutes now." Sam tells them.

"He's going to need stitches." The other paramedic says, looking at it.

"Definitely. He probably has a concussion."

"Hand is probably broken or fractured." He says, examining it.

"Sky," He says as Sky starts to wake up. "We're taking you to the hospital."

"I'm fine." Sky says, pushing the paramedic's hand away.

"Sky, shut up." Sophie says.

Sky looks up at her. "Why are there two of you who look very angry."

"Okay, let's go." A paramedic says, getting Sky to his feet and walking him to the ambulance. "Sophie, you can ride with us."

"Pepper and Eddie are with Hayley and Noah," Sophie tells them, climbing into the ambulance.

"We'll tell them, don't worry." Donna says.

Donna and Sam watch the ambulance leave then walk over to Sophie and Sky's house.

"Hey guys." Eddie greets from the couch with Hayley.

They were watching tv.

"Hey." Sam says, closing the door.

"What's up?"

They glance down at Hayley. Eddie slowly nods his head.

"Hayley, why don't we go see your brother."

"Okay." She says, smiling.

He carries her upstairs and him and Pepper walk down.

"So, Sky's in the hospital right now." Donna starts.

"What happened?" Pepper asks.

"Adrian started a fight with him and then one of his friends hit Sky with a glass over his head, so he's gone to get stitches. He also has a concussion, and something is going on with his hand."

"They won't be back for a bit, just wanted to let you know." Sam finishes.

"Would you guys be able to watch Hayley and Noah? They were supposed to be back in 10 minutes cause our shift starts in 15 minutes."

"Yea, sure, that's why were here." Sam says.

"I bet Sophie isn't happy with Sky right now then." Pepper jokes.

"She's the one who stopped Adrian, though." Donna says, proudly.

"She did that thing with the arm behind the back, didn't she." Eddie assumes.

Donna and Sam nod their heads, smiling.

"Good on her." Pepper whispers.

"Alright, we should go." Eddie says, standing up. "We'll be back later, I want to see Sky and how bad it is."

"Okay."

At the hospital, Sky just finished getting the stitches and is waiting for the x-rays to come back.

"I'm sorry about this." He says to Sophie.

"It's not your fault. He threw the first punch." She tells him. "But you know you didn't have to punch back, right?"

"I know, I just, couldn't help it."

Sophie laughs and kisses him.

"Well, now we know for a fact that they have left the island." She says.

"Good. If I saw him again, I don't what I would have done."

"Mr. Rymand." The doctor walks in. "Your hand is fractured in 2 places."

Sophie laughs.

"We will put you in a brace for 6 weeks, so you won't be able to move your wrist. Try to keep it on most of the time, apart from showers."

He nods his head slowly.

"But, we do want to keep you here for another hour or two because of the concussion."

"Okay."

"Sophie, are you alright?" Sophie looks at the doctor confused.

Her and Sky follow the doctor's eye sight down to her wrist.

"Oh, yea, I'm fine." She quickly puts her other hand over the bruises and scratches.

3 HOURS LATER

Sophie and Sky walk into their home, and see Donna and Sam with Hayley and Noah, watching tv. Hayley was the first to see them. She jumps off of Donna's lap and runs over to Sophie.

"Hi, baby." Sophie says softly, picking her up.

"What did the doctor say?" Sam asks as they sit down on the couch.

"Uh, concussion, 2 fractures in my wrist, and 8 stitches." They look at him with sympathetic eyes. "I'm fine."

"Hayley, why don't you go see daddy, he's hurt." She says letting her crawl onto Sky.

"Thank you." Sky says as Hayley hugs him. "Oh, no, Hayley don't do that." He pulls away as she reaches up at the gash on his forehead.

"And Sky," Sam starts, "spending 3 hours in a hospital after being bought there by ambulance, doesn't qualify you as being fine." He says, half jokingly.

"I guess. I might need some time off work though."

Donna nods her head, smiling.

"Soph," Sam says, "are you okay?"

"I'm fine, why?"

"I saw the way you grabbed Adrian's arm as he went to hit Sky again."

"Oh yea, I remember that." Sky says proudly, smiling at her.

"He deserved it, plus, I heard it's really painful." She smiles at Sky.

"Oh, yes, it is." Sky comments. Donna and Sam look at him confused. "You really don't want to know." He says, smiling back at Sophie as she begins to laugh.

"Alright, we'll leave you two to your lives now." Donna says, standing up. "We'll see guys later." Sophie picks Noah up.
