"Oh thank god, she's coming to!"

Jackie could hear female voices as she opened her eyes. Her vision was blurred, the world around her different to what it had been before she had been knocked unconscious. Her head felt like it weighed a tonne. She tried to sit up – but felt quite dizzy as she attempted to – but a few pairs of hands pushed her back down.

"Miss Gayda, you need your rest." A calm female voice coaxed her soothingly, her cool hands on Jackie's forehead as if she was checking her temperature. Jackie still felt weak, the attack from both Charlie and Dawn had dazed her greatly. But at least her vision was returning back to normal. Right now she stared into the kind face of an EMT. They were in the medical room. She was lying on a couple of wrinkled sheets on a stiff bed. All sorts of medical gadgets and gears were about the room, technical looking posters plastered neatly on the wall, displayed proudly for the patients to see.

Jackie's eyes darted over to a couple of chairs placed in the corner. She saw Torrie's face, all pale and white, staring back at her. Her eyes showed her emotions – worry, fear, anxiety… that her friend wasn't okay. But Jackie shot her a tiny smile, proving her wrong. Torrie let out a sigh of relief, finally able to breathe again.

"That was quite a nasty bump you took."

The EMT stated obviously, as she stood by the sink, filling a plastic cup with water. Jackie managed a weak smile, forcing herself to sit up. This time the kind EMT did not protest, but rather encouraged it, nodding in agreement. Jackie was shaking a little as the EMT turned and handed gave her the cup, which she accepted readily. She sipped a little at it.

"I don't know what's gotten into Charlie… still, it was nice of Mr Cena to help you out."

Jackie blinked, stunned. She couldn't believe she had forgotten him, everything he had done for her. She handed the cup back to the EMT, suddenly unable to drink anymore of it. A little surprised, the EMT took it back, then glanced back at Jackie.

"Where is John, by the way?"

She asked in a shaky tone. The EMT smiled slightly, then shrugged a little. "We don't know. He just up and left a few moments ago. He said he forgot something." Jackie frowned a little, wondering what on earth John could have forgotten. The EMT, noticing Jackie's worried expression, chuckled slightly, a knowing expression overcoming her.

"He was by your side the whole time until a few minutes ago, so don't worry, Miss…" the EMT's voice trailed off as the door to the room opened. Everyone inside the room fell silent and turned toward the door, where they could see a pair of denim pants and a huge bunch of roses above them. The roses were beautiful, a luscious red in colour, gorgeous green furling leaves… the bouquet moved to the left and all they could see was John Cena's grinning face. A faint blush crossed Jackie's cheeks as she watched him move across the room toward her, smiling as he thrust the bouquet toward her. He bowed slightly, now smirking.

"For you, madam."

Jackie felt herself blushing even harder. She accepted the bouquet, holding them tenderly in her hands. She felt like crying. He was being such a sweetheart to her. He pouted. "Don't you like them?" Jackie felt herself fingering one of the petals lightly.

"Of course I do, they're so gorgeous."

He grinned even harder. Torrie and the EMT exchanged knowing smiles, then they left the room with the rest of the medical assistants. As the friendly EMT closed the door, she called seriously, "The medicine should kick in soon!"

Jackie stared after her confused. John took a seat beside her. She suddenly felt tongue-tied, at a complete loss for words. "Um.." she paused for a moment, still a bit pink, a bit flushed. He tilted his head to the right, staring at her, waiting for her to speak what she had to say.

"Thanks. For everything. For the flowers and for just always sticking by me, especially now…" she ran a hand through her hair, her heart pounding, then felt herself leaning in toward John and pecking him lightly on the cheek. Then her vision blurred, her mind span, and she just felt herself falling into utter darkness. Before she fell asleep, she heard herself saying,

"Stay with me tonight, John.."
