Prisoner- Chapter 14
I walked into Angel's room and sat down next to her bed. She gave me a bright smile.
"How are you feeling sweetie?" I asked taking her hand.
"Much better." She said nodding, making her blond curls bounce lightly.
"Excuse me," A nurse said from the doorway. "May I have a word?"
"Yeah," I answered standing up then looked at Angel a moment. "I'll be right back."
She smiled and I smiled back. I was so relieved to see her healthy again. I had been scared before and I still was. I had come close to losing her, my baby. I wouldn't let that happen ever again. The next person who tries to harm my flock would have to face the wrath of Maximum Ride.
"Ariel is your sister, correct?" She asked clicking the pen in her hand.
"Yes." I said swallowing hard.
"Good, so if you just sign here Ariel will be released after she gets her night's rest." The nurse said handing me the clipboard and pen.
"So you're saying that she will be released first thing when she wakes up tomorrow?" I asked, my mouth agape.
"That's right." The nurse said with a slight smile. "There's no reason to keep her any longer. She has healed very well and very quickly. An amazing rate, really."
"Well, she's an amazing little girl." I said as I signed the chart.
"Cute too." The nurse said smirking then walking away.
I just nodded at her form disappearing down the hallway. I turned to walk to the waiting room where the rest of my flock was waiting for the news. I entered to see Gazzy asleep in a chair, he looked so cute all curled up like that. Iggy looked bored out of his mind as Nudge rambled on to him. Fang turned his attention from Nudge and Iggy to stare at me. I could tell he was still mad at me. I'll have to talk to him about it later.
"What did you find out?" Nudge asked looking at me now.
"She can leave the hospital as soon as she wakes up tomorrow morning." I said with a smile. Nudge hugged Iggy, Fang smiled for a few seconds and then it disappeared, and I woke Gazzy and told him the news. He threw his arms around my neck and gave me a hug. I squeezed him back and kissed his cheek. He was such a great kid.
"Does Angel know yet?" Gazzy asked getting out of his seat.
"No, I thought we could give her the good news together." I said ruffling his blond hair.
"Let's go." Nudge said popping out of her seat.
Iggy rose out of his seat a second later. Fang got up too, still looking kind of mad at me. I could tell he was relieved Angel was getting released though, so he wasn't fully tuning me out.
We all filed into Angel's room. Angel's face lit up when she saw all of us there. Everyone gave her a hug, even Fang. He was a softy when it came to Angel, well as soft as Fang gets.
"Angel, you get to leave in the morning!" Gazzy said shaking with excitement.
Angel's smile brightened even more. That's when I knew everything was going to be okay. Angel would get out of the hospital in the morning and then we would be back on the run, but at least we would all be together. All six of us, the flock.
