"She's extremely lucky, if those injuries had gone undetected any longer she might not have survived, but we were able to repair her liver and spleen with no problem. We were also able to repair the blood vessel. The spleen rupture, however, well, they are tricky and things and we'll have to put her on antibotics to insure that no infections or problems start. We, also, want to be very careful with her recovery; if she were to undo our work it could cost her life. She will need someone to be with her almost 24 hours a day to watch her and make sure everything is ok. She's probably in a lot of pain right now and she is on Demeral for that. She is also not that strong.... So, no sitting up or walking around!" Ty gulped, trying to restrain his anger at Alex being treated so poorly, they should've payed more attention, taken better care of her. This isn't just anyone were talking about. He nodded, and his rage must have showed in his eyes because the doctor took a step backwards.

"You can see her now" she added before fleeing the room, quite obviously glad to get away from Ty and his icy glare. Kim had already gone to Alex he realized, feeling a bit guilty, where he should be he ran in the direction of her room. He paused outside, I should give Kim some time alone to talk to her....... ~ Kim studied her friend's pale face, listening to the somewhat comforting sound of the heart monitor; in any other circumstances it would've been annoying, but today it gave her a sense of relief. She knew that Alex couldn't be expected to wake right away but she wanted to be there when Alex woke up. A few minutes later Alex moaned and opened her eyes, surprising Kim, she had thought she would've remained unconscious...no asleep her mind corrected for a while longer.

"Hey, no, don't move, its going to be ok Alex" she said softly, just as Alex prepared to try and sit up.

"What happened?" Alex rasped, and Kim reached out and took her hand, squeezing it to reassure Alex, wincing at the thought of how much pain she knew her friend must be in.

"Well you had some internal stuff going on, your spleen and liver were ruptured as well as a small blood vessel in your stomach, but your going to be fine and that's the important thing, just rest up and get better" she smiled and shook her head at Alex when she tried to sit up.

"No stay down. You can't sit up, Alex or you could hurt yourself. I konw it hurts, but it'll get better, I promise. Ty here's to see you so I'll come visit you later ok?" She glanced at her friend when she didn't answer, only to find that she had drifted back into a peaceful sleep. Kim stood and walked over to Ty, who staring in with a tight angry and concerned expression on his face.

"How was she?" he asked and Kim sensed the barely controlled anger in his voice; couldn't really blame him she was pretty upset with the doctor too, if Morales had been here it would never have happened.

"In a lot of pain, she's sleeping again but Alex is tough, she's going to be fine, we just have to be there for her" ~ Alex is tough, how many times had he heard that now? Countless times he imagined, thinking back to when she got hit by the car. I was so worried about it you then Ali, and yet when you were in the hospital I didn't go see you; unlike you, you came and saw me after I got hurt and after I fell of the building too, he recalled remembering how she had come by his apartment, asking if he was really ok. He had been short with her, bad- tempered because he had seen Sully drink and she'd left pretty quickly, but not before telling him that she hoped he was feeling better soon. He took a deep breath and entered the room; is she really going to be ok? After all this is over will she really be ok or do they not really know? How can I trust what they say when they say she just had concussion yesterday and it turned out to be more? Ty slowly walked into Alex's room. She was laying in bed with her eyes closed. She was pale. He sucked in his breath. He walked closed to her bed and sat down in the chair next to her bed.

"God. You are so beautiful. I am such an idiot," Ty muttered gently rubbing tiny circles on her hand. Alex's stirred slightly, but didn't wake up. Ty sighed.

"I can't lose you, Alex. I won't. I swear to God, if one more doctor screws up....." Ty began angry. He felt Alex's hand tighten around his. He looked down at her to see her eyes flutter open tiredly.

"Hey you," Alex said in a raspy voice. Ty smiled.

"Hey. How do you feel?" Ty asked. "Like I got hit with a freaky truck," Alex muttered painfully. Ty kissed her hand.

"I am sorry," he said. Alex looked at him.

"What on Earth are you sorry for?" she asked coughing slightly and then groaning. Ty frowned.

"Because you are in so much pain. Ali, I would do anything to switch you positions right now," Ty said. Alex smiled slightly. "Thanks, but I just need you to hold me right now," she said. Ty slowly sat on the edge of her bed and wrapped his arms around her, still keeping her in a laying position. He didn't want to do anything to cause her anymore pain. Alex closed her eyes and sighed against his chest. She felt so safe in his arms.

"Ty," she said softly. Ty looked down at her. "Yeah." "Before I had to go into surgery.... You said you needed to tell me something," she said wincing as she tried to turn in his arms.

"Woah. Sweetheart, don't try to move, ok?" Ty said alarmed. Alex sighed. "Sorry," she muttered. Ty smiled.

"Alex, what I wanted to tell you was that.... I... I love you," he said. There was a dead silence and Ty thought the worse. Oh God! She doesn't feel the same way. I just made a complete ass of myself. He thought. He felt Alex's grip tighten on his hand.

"Ty," she said softly still slightly surprised that he felt the same way she did. "Yeah," he said.

"I love you, too," she said smiling. Ty was surprised and Alex chuckled softly looking at the look on his face.

"R-really?" he asked. Alex smiled.

"Really. I love you, too, Ty Davis," she said. Ty kissed her gently on the lips.

"I am tired," Alex said looking at Ty sleepily. Ty nodded and started to move off the bed. Alex clutched his hand.

"No, please, stay with me," she begged tiredly. Ty nodded and kissed her head.

"Ok. I'll stay right here. Don't worry," he said as she fell into a restless, yet, needed sleep. Ty watched her sleeping and smiled. She loves me, too. This is great. Nothing can ever happen to her. I won't let it.

"I will never let anything happen to you, again, Alex. I love you too much," he whispered kissing her hand. He then joined Alex in dreamland.
