A few hours later………………..

Dean sat in a rather uncomfortable chair with his head resting on Mj's hospital bed.

"mmmmmm, Dean?" she murmured softly

"yea hun, I'm right here"

"what happened" she asked looking down at his goofy fake smile.

"your appendix ruptured, and they had to remove what was left, but your gonna be ok, down for a couple weeks but ok none the less."

MJ nodded that she understood, "Dean, I'm sorry"

"for what"

"not letting myself love you" she drifted back to sleep and left him questioning everything.

The next morning MJ awoke the site of Averman in her face.

"WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, Averman what the HELL are you doing"

"man get away from her" Charlie said pulling Averman out the door.

"how you feeling MJ" Coach O'rion sat himself in the chair that Portman had previously occupied the night before.

"good, I'm just a little tired, that's all"

"that's good, now I have some bad news, the doctors wont let you fly so you cant go home and your parents can't get off work to come and take care of you"

"yea yea, get to the bad news coach" Charlie chuckled a little

"your going to have to stay in the hospital to re cooperate"

"WHOA Coach that is bad news I don't even like the doctor's office this is not going to do no no I can take care of myself, and besides that I have practice and mid terms and no no this definitely wont do" she rambled slowly getting up out of her hospital bed.

"hey babe watch it" Portman yelled sitting her back down before anyone else got a glimpse of the all too revealing back of a hospital gown. "Coach can I talk to you for a second" he asked.

O'rion nodded and followed Portman out the door, but not before barking orders at the remaining ducks, "DUCKS! Out MJ needs her rest everyone back to your homes"

The room was soon empty and after a few minutes Portman walked back in.

"hey Mal"

she smiled, "no one has called me that in years, it sounds nice"

"they should really give you morphine more often"

"huh"

"nothing, listen I talked coach into letting me take care of you, since you have your own single room on campus I can stay with you and take care of you, he said that he will take care of the dean and co-ed rooming and shit like that, so if that's cool with you we can leave hes got you checked out and ready go"

"yes lets go home, no more cold dresses"

Portman chuckled, "yea I brought you some of my clothes since I couldn't get into your room"

The drugs were beginning to wear off and Mj was finally able to make full sentences that actually made sense.

"thanks, Dean" she smiled taking the sweatpants and tshirt from his hand.

"do you need any help"

"no I think I can put a pair of pants and a shirt on" she answered stubbornly bending over and immediately pulling herself back up, "ow ok maybe I need just a little help"

Dean smiled and quickly obliged, once she was fully dressed Mj was wheeled outside and gently placed in Dean's car.

A few minutes into the car ride Dean looked over and noticed Mj stuggling with her chair.

"Mal what are you doing"

"I'm tired I'm trying to recline, but you've got a freakin child proof recliner thingy"

"hold on"

Dean stopped at the next red light and leaned over Mj's seat he grabbed the lever and easily reclined the seat. "is that better"

"hmmm, much, thanks Dean" she said before quickly falling asleep.

He looked at her once more, kissed her forehead and continued the drive home.
