I know this chapter is a little bit shorter but it seemed like a sweet little moment to end it on. I wouldn't be worried about Matt holding a grudge against the boys. Now that he knows Chloe's okay, he'll just be more focused on fixing Simon's issue so no one gets hurt again. I don't think he could ever banish the boys, he knows that would break Chloe's heart and he won't upset her.

I yawned and stretched, my back was really sore.

"Hey there she is," a voice said softly.

I opened my eyes to find Matt watching over me.

"How does your head feel?" He asked.

"I'm okay," I sat up.

An icy cold washcloth fell off my forehead. The room was silent as I looked around. Tori and Liz were sitting on the other side of the bed watching me. Kyle was looking down at his phone trying to stay out of the way. Jeremy was sitting beside Emma who was staring off into space.

"Where's Derek and Simon?" I asked.

Matt handed me back the washcloth.

"I made them leave for a bit." Matt said. "I was furious with what they did."

I can't say I blame Matt for being mad at them but making them leave? Oh well, I wasn't going to argue with it right now. I didn't want any fighting right now.

"How long was I out?"

"Not long," Jeremy said. "Maybe twenty minutes."

Not long? How was that not long?! I tried getting up from the bed.

"I need to go talk to them," I said.

Matt gently put a hand on my shoulder, enough pressure to keep me where I was but not so hard that it hurt any injuries.

"Whoa, we need to make sure you're okay."

"Matt," Liz interrupted. "Who's Lydia?"

"Excuse me?" Matt was thrown off by this question.

"When Chloe got hurt you called her Lydia," Liz said.

"Don't worry about it," Matt said.

"But-"

"I wouldn't push it," I warned Liz. This was obviously a sensitive topic for Matt.

Meanwhile outside

Derek couldn't help himself, he shoved Simon against the wall and got in his face.

"What the hell was that?!" Derek screamed. "You could've killed her!"

"It was an accident! Are you the only one who's allowed to lose it?"

"You better get yourself under control then or we are going to have bigger issues. You could have killed her Simon!"

"Don't you think I know that?" Simon got quiet. "I tried to tell her to leave it alone."

"So its her fault?" Derek glared.

"No that's not what I meant," Simon shook his head quickly.

"We need to figure out what's wrong with you and fast," Derek said, his initial burst of anger fading. "Before you hurt anyone else."

Simon sighed, "I know."

Back to inside

"Are you sure you're feeling okay?" Matt asked.

I nodded, "I'll be fine."

"What on earth happened?" Kyle joined in the conversation.

"It was an accident," I said. "Simon's magic burst out."

"Magic doesn't just burst out Chloe," Matt said.

I shrugged and felt something pinch in my shoulder. "Well he doesn't really have traditional magic does he?"

"Something wrong?" Matt noticed me flinch.

"I'm fine," I said.

"Turn around," Matt commanded.

I obeyed and turned around. Matt pulled down the collar of my shirt.

"You've got a splinter from hitting the wall," he said. "One… two… three…"

He yanked it out. It hurt for a second then felt much better. I turned back to the way I was sitting before.

"Can they come back?" I asked. "It really was an accident."

Matt sighed and nodded, "Sure but this magic problem needs to be fixed. I will not have people getting hurt by their family."

Emma spoke under her breath, "Loving someone."

Matt looked around, "I swear that's the second time I've heard that. Who keeps saying that?"

"That's Emma," I said. "We talked about it last night."

Matt raised an eyebrow but didn't question it further.

"Would someone let the boys in?" Matt asked.

Liz got up and went looking for them. She came back a few minutes later with them.

Derek rushed over to me and pulled me into a hug.

"I'm so relieved you're okay," he said.

Simon hung back near the bathroom door.

"I'm sorry…" he said.

I nodded, "It's ok Simon. It was an accident."

"It's not ok," Matt said under his breath.

Ignoring Matt, I asked Simon, "Are you feeling better?"

Simon chuckled, "Sure if feeling better means feeling as guilty as possible."

"You should feel guilty," Derek said.

"Would you two stop it with the commenting?" I said. "I forgive him, you should too."

"He could've killed you Chloe," Derek said.

"But he didn't," I said. "Stop holding what ifs against Simon."

Simon just stared at me, I think he couldn't believe I was standing up for him after what just happened.

I got up from the bed, wow I felt sore, and walked over to Simon. He watched me, unsure what I was going to do. I came up to him and wrapped my arms around him in a hug. Simon didn't react at first but eventually hugged me back.

"I'm sorry," he said.

"All is forgiven," I said. "I was never mad at you Simon. You're family."
