Love at First Touch
Chapter 26 - Think Again
"I'm so glad you two are here. come with me." Mimi said as she pulled Belle and signaled Shawn to come in to see Brady.
The door to Brady's room opened and Belle's eyes followed every plug connected to Brady then her eyes focused on him and she stood speechless.
"Belle, are you okay?" Shawn rubbed her shoulders as he asked. She was tense.
"I'm sorry. It's just so hard to see my brother like this."
"Stop talking like I'm not here. get over here, Tink." Brady said.
Belle ran over to her brother's side and squeezed his hand. "I'm here. How are you feeling?"
"To be honest with you. I'm feeling like crap, but the sight of you guys really lifts my spirits." Brady answered.
"You are so sweet! You know you'll be in tiptop shape in no time, right? And when you get out of here, you and Meems along with Shawn and I are going to go on a trip. There's too much negativity circling us here and I think we deserve a little vacation!" Belle told Brady.
"Whatever your little heart desires, Tink." Brady smiled as he saw the confidence in his sister's eyes.
"Hey, that's rude. she doesn't have a little heart. She has a huge heart filled with love for you!" Shawn said in a serious but joking manner.
"Sorry. whatever your HUGE heart desires." Brady rephrased and the whole group began laughing.
There was a knock on the door and Brady's doctor, Dr. Wesley, walked in. "Can all of you step out for a few minutes? I'd like to see how Brady's doing."
"No problem." All of them said.
"Gosh, he looks so bad. I hope everything is getting better and he can leave soon." Mimi said.
"You know what this calls for? A group prayer." Shawn said as he glanced at Belle who was down in the dumps. When she heard this she smiled back at Shawn. He always knew what to do to make her feel better.
"Dear God, my brother is in need of your help. Please do all in your power to make him all better. He doesn't deserve this pain. He has always been full of love and happiness that he never kept to himself, but always shared with anyone he encountered. His positive attitude and kindheartedness is contagious, and that's a good thing! He needs to get better to keep bringing this world out of the darkness that lurks about. He also has family and friends that love him dearly. Please look after him; please look after my brother.. Amen."
The group came together and hugged each other. Dr. Wesley came out of the room.
"Brady is showing great signs of improvement. It's very rare to see a patient in the condition he came in, to be healing so quickly. The power of love and prayer is evident in this case."
"Oh, thank you thank you thank you!!!!" Belle said as she ran towards the doctor and gave him a big hug. "You just made my day, Dr. Wesley!"
She let go of the doctor who was caught off guard and ran into Brady's room. "I told you that you would be fine in no time!"
"It's all because all of you are here and made me realize how much I have to live for." Brady looked at each and every person standing in the room. Then he stopped and looked at Mimi and gave her a wink. Mimi's heart melted. Shawn and Belle witnessed this love that was occurring in front of their eyes and it brought them joy. Shawn was standing behind Belle and placed his arms around her waist. He pulled her close to him as his head landed on her shoulder.
All of a sudden, John rushed through the door. "We have to get all of you out of here, NOW! This includes Brady!"
"Why? Is Brady coming home now?" Belle said innocently.
"No, we are all in serious danger and I'm taking you all to a secret location where the person who did this to Brady can't get to us. No more questions, get a move on it! Out!"
Hospital staff rushed into Brady's room and began moving him out. The rest of the gang headed out the door and followed John.
"We are headed to the car now. Make sure my son gets in the van and that the guards look after him. That bastard isn't getting anywhere near my family and their friends."
Belle looked at Shawn and said, "When is this going to end?! When will we be safe?" Shawn replied, "I wish I knew. But who is behind this now? My parents are in jail."
"I'm scared, Shawn." Belle said with a quivering voice.
"So am I."
"I'm so glad you two are here. come with me." Mimi said as she pulled Belle and signaled Shawn to come in to see Brady.
The door to Brady's room opened and Belle's eyes followed every plug connected to Brady then her eyes focused on him and she stood speechless.
