Chapter Seven

Alex stared lovingly at her sister while she slept, finally at peace that Kara was sleeping on her own accord and not due to a coma. Her chest rising and falling without a tube needing to help this action. She smiled, thankful that Kara was okay. Finally being able to sleep with no fear that she would wake up and Kara possibly be in a bad way.

Kara woke up first, looking to her side to see Alex still lying next to her, fast asleep arms wrapped round her torso. Smiling she carefully lifted Alex's arm off of her and quietly slipped out the bed to go to the bathroom. Looking at herself in the mirror, she noticed how pale she looked, and how her cheekbones protruded from her face far more then before. Figuring she must of been out for more then a day or two she slowly walked back into the medical bay, Alex already up and watching her movements back to the bed.

"You okay?" Alex questioned.

"Yeah I'm okay, I just needed the bathroom. How long was I out Al?" Kara replied, hoping for a couple answers to try jog her memory along.

"Just over a week. Do you remember anything?" Alex patted the bed for Kara to come sit back down. Realising Alex was wanting to talk about recent events, Kara slowly made her way over and perched on the side of the bed. "Wow a week, I'm guessing you stayed here?" Kara said while motioning over to the makeshift bed made up next to them.

"Yeah, I would never leave your side. It scared me seeing you like that Kar... I know I say it alot but when I say I love you. I mean it. You are my rock. I never not want you there by my side." Alex pursed her lips, obviously getting upset all over again thinking about the what ifs. Kara noticing her sister was working herself up she wrapped her arms round her and pulled her into a strong embrace.

"Alex I would never leave you. I love you too." Kara smiled looking at Alex with so much affection in her eyes. She knew she had the best sister in the world, there was no doubt about that.

Alex grinned. "So, do you remember anything?"

"Urrm not really, everything is still a bit foggy right now" Kara frowned, wishing she could remember something to help.

"Okay no rush, right now focus on getting stronger. It'll come back in time" Alex smiled, rubbing her arm up and down on Kara's.

After a few moments on comfortable silence, Kara piped up. "Al, when can I go home?"

Alex looked round from her position on the bed. "I'll check with Dr Hamilton, but I think it would be best for at least the rest of today and tonight you stay under the sunlights just to make sure every things fully healed then tomorrow we'll see about getting you home!"

Kara sighed. "Fiiiine" Pulling herself down from a seated position on the bed, tugging the bed covers over her body and relaxing her head onto the pillow.

Alex chuckled to herself, knowing full well Kara could go home now, but deep down she wanted to keep her here sheltered so no one could touch her or hurt her for the foreseeable future.

"But Alex.. when I do get to go home. Will you stay? Even if its just for one night." Kara mumbled from the pillow.

Alex surprisingly heard the little mumble and smiled fondly. "Of course I'll stay, for however long you want me too, okay?"

"Okay" Kara responded, eyes slowly closing again.
