A week has passed and Rachael was released from the hospital. Gar helped Rachael off the hospital bed. Her leg was still wrapped, but it would be taken off in another week. Gar placed Rachael into the wheelchair. He grabbed her bag and wheeled her out of the hospital room.

"So are you happy to finally be out of this hospital?" Gar asked Rachael as he wheeled her onto the hallway.

"Yes. I hate hospitals." Rachael said.

Gar laughed. "Well you're going home and things are going to get back to normal. You also have a lot of homework to catch up on once you get back to school"

Rachael didn't say a word. She sat there in deep thought. Sights of Adonis above her flashed through her head. The lust in his eyes feared her. It's been over a month since she saw Adonis, but he still haunts her nightmares. She bowed her head in silence. She knew that if she went back to school he would torment her, making it even worse. She also knew that she couldn't tell Gar in fear of him getting hurt by Adonis. Rachael didn't know what to do. She sighed. Her train of thought was interrupted by Gar's voice.

"Rachael!" Gar said as he called her name.

"Huh? What?" Rachael asked.

"Were you listening to me?"

"Um, no. Sorry." Rachael said

"Are you ok?" Gar asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm probably just tired. That's all." Rachael said with a fake smile.

"Ok then." Gar said as he kept pushing Rachael's wheelchair.

Gar pushed the wheelchair out the double doors. Mrs. Logan was in the car.

"You know this reminds me of last time you were in the hospital and I was taking you home" Gar said with a smile.

Rachael smiled. "Yeah, I remember that."

Gar wheeled Rachael to the car and gently put her inside the car. He soon got into the car himself. Mrs. Logan sped on onto the road. Mrs. Logan looked back through her rear view mirror and saw the distress on Rachael's face.

"Rachael, are you alright?" She asked as she kept her eyes on the road.

Rachael quickly stopped looking out of the window and put a fake smile on her face. "Yes, I'm fine.

"I bet you're excited to get back home and see your room again." Mrs. Logan said.

Rachael smiled. "Yeah, I can't wait."

"Well nothing really changed. I cleaned the sheets and have some comfortable clothes on the bed waiting for you."

"Thank you Mrs. Logan." Rachael said.

"You're welcome, sweetheart." Mrs. Logan replied.

"Mom, can we have pizza for dinner?" Gar asked.

"Gar, you know that I'm making dinner tonight." Mrs. Logan said.

"Yeah, but I'm in the pizza mood." Gar whined.

"We'll take a vote on it when the time comes."

The three made it home. Mrs. Logan parked the car into the driveway. Gar got out and helped Rachael out of the car while Mrs. Logan took Rachael's bag. They entered the house and Gar carried Rachael to her bedroom.

"You need to gain more weight. You're as light as air." Gar said as he laid her on the bed.

Rachael sighed in relief. "Finally, I'm back in my room and my own bed."

Gar smiled and laid on the open space next to Rachael on her bed. "It's good to see you back in it."

Rachael smiled and rest her head on Gar's chest. Thoughts of Adonis still ran through her head. She sighed once again. Her eyes began to feel heavy. She closed her eyes and fell into the darkness of a peaceful slumber. Gar laid there with her in his arms. He sighed in happiness. "I'm so happy to see her in my arms again." Gar thought. Gar was just about to get up to help his mother when he realized that Rachael fell asleep. He slowly got up from the bed trying his best not to wake her. Thankfully, he didn't. He kissed Rachael on the forehead and quietly walked out the bedroom.

Mrs. Logan prepared the table with plates and silverware. She checked the oven for the lasagna that was being baked in the oven. She sighed in happiness as she looked at the clock and saw that her husband would be home any minute now. She smiled and decorated the table with beautiful roses that she had recently bought. She filled the vase with fresh water and placed the roses on the table. "Finally, the table is complete now that Rachael is here." She thought as a smile grew on her face. She quickly went back to the oven to retrieve the lasagna from the oven. She left it on the table to cool off. She heard the door open and closed. Mr. Logan walked in with a smile on his face. The married couple hugged and kissed each other.

"How is your day today, honey?" Mr. Logan asked his wife with a smile.

Mrs. Logan took his coat. "It was wonderful. I'm so happy to see Rachael again." She said as she went back to the kitchen counter.

Life in the Logan household has gotten better. Gar is no longer outside the house for hours and no longer are they worrying. Their new addition to the family is back where she belongs, and they will make sure she is no longer in danger.

Gar walked down the stairs and walked into the kitchen. He stopped and smelled the air and smiled at the smell of the delicious food.

"It smells great, mom!" Gar said as he saw the big pan of lasagna on the counter.

"Yup. Garlic bread is coming right up too." Mrs. Logan said with a smile as she leaned on the counter.

"Oooo! I can't wait!" Gar said as he rubbed his hands together ready to eat.

"And you wanted to order pizza." Mrs. Logan chuckled.

Time for dinner quickly came and Gar went to Rachael's bedroom to wake her. He opened the door and saw Rachael still asleep. He walked over to the empty space of the bed where once was laying. He looked at her face and saw her peaceful face as she slept. He stroked her cheek and kissed her forehead once again. Rachael opened her eyes at the feel of the touch. She saw Gar smiling at her and smiled back.

"Well hello there." She said sleepily as she still laid in her sleeping position.

"Hey, you hungry?" Gar asked her with a smile on his face.

"I'm starving." Rachael said as she rubbed her stomach.

Gar smiled. "Well my mom made a delicious dinner for you."

Rachael smiled and got up from the bed. "I'm going to freshen up. I'll meet you guys downstairs."

"Okie dokes." Gar said with a smile as he left her bedroom. He walked out of her bedroom and went back to the kitchen. He saw the table filled with even more delicious food. He saw a fresh green salad with mixed fruit sitting next to it. Gar's mouth watered.

"Mom! When did you make all of this?" Gar said as he stared at the food that was on the table.

"When you were out." Mrs. Logan said as she concentrated on cutting tomatoes.

"But I checked the fridge like twice since I got back! I know you couldn't have done all this when I was upstairs." Gar said in confusion.

Mrs. Logan laughed. "I made it last night when you were at the hospital. I hid it from you so that you couldn't eat it."

"I wouldn't eat the food." Gar protested as he sat down across the table from his father.

His father gave him a look. "Alright. Maybe I would have took a little bit." Gar quickly changed.

Mrs. Logan soon gave him a look as well. "Alright fine. I would have taken a bowl and just eat it."

Mr. and Mrs. Logan laughed at their son. Mrs. Logan soon bought cups to the table with drinks.

"Now all we have to do now is wait for Rachael." Mrs. Logan said as she sat down in her seat.

"Rachael said that she would be down soon." Gar said as he kept looking at the food.

Just as Gar said those words, Rachael came down the stairs and into the kitchen. She saw the Logan family with big smiles looking at her. Her heart just melt. She was very happy to see the warm smiles instead of big angry eyes. She sat down at the table with a smile on her face. They said a quick prayer and began to eat which obviously Gar was the first to get his plate filled with the delicious food that was sitting on the table waiting to be eaten.

Rachael sat on her comfortable bed with her leg elevated. Her hair was wet from the shower she had just taken. She had a book in her hands that she was reading. The book she was never able to finish reading. She was engrossed in her book until her bedroom door opened. Gar walked in with just his pajama pants on. Rachael's eyes glued on Gar's naked torso. She had to admit. She never really saw Gar without his shirt on. His chest has gotten broader since they met. She saw his little but muscular biceps as well as his arms and abs. She never really noticed Gar's 6 pack until now. Rachael quickly snapped out of it and blushed. Gar noticed her blush and smirked. He climbed into her bed and wrapped his arms around her.

"Did you enjoy dinner?" Gar asked her as he rested his head on her shoulder.

Rachael smiled and nodded. "The best I've had in a month."

Gar smiled. "Good. My mom went all out. It was like a 'Welcome Home!' party."

Rachael closed her book and placed it on her counter that was sitting next to her bed.

"So are you ready for school next week?" Gar asked Rachael as he rubbed her arms. "My mom said that I can stay to help you out since she and dad will be at work."

Rachael shrugged, obviously not in the mood to talk about it. Gar looked at her confused.

"Are you alright? You seem…sad and scared to go back." Gar said as he looked at Rachael.

Rachael sighed and looked her hands. "I don't know. I'm just nervous to go back because people could mess with me." Rachael lied. She didn't care what people thought of her. They could kiss her pale butt.

Gar hugged her. "Don't worry about it. I'll be your body guard."

Rachael smiled and hugged him back. "Thanks."

"No problem." Gar said with a smile.

Rachael nodded and Gar laughed. "You should go to bed. Gar said as he got up. He was getting up to leave the bedroom when Rachael grabbed onto his arm. "Could you sleep with me…Please?" Rachael said with pleading eyes.

"Of course." Gar said with a lovingly smile.

Gar got back into the bed and brought the covers to them. Rachael reached with her hand and turned the lamp off eliminating all light in the bedroom, leaving the young couple in darkness.

The sun shined through Rachael's bedroom window. It filled the room with a beautiful natural light that complemented the bedroom color. Gar slowly opened his eyes and took in the sight of the bedroom. He turned to his side and saw nothing. He rubbed his eyes and saw that Rachael wasn't in bed. He got up and walked out of the room. He walked into the bathroom and freshened himself for the day. He walked downstairs still in his pajama pants and walked into the kitchen. He saw Rachael sitting at the counter still in her pajamas eating cereal. He sat at the counter.

"Hey." Gar said somewhat sleepily.

"Hey. Sleep well?" Rachael asked as she took another spoonful of her cereal.

"Yeah. I'm pretty happy that I don't have to go to school today."

Rachael silently nodded and kept eating her cereal.

Thoughts ran through Rachael's head like a tornado. Thinking of Adonis, let alone seeing him made her stomach turned. Rachael sighed and finished her cereal. She threw the bowl in the sink and walked away from the kitchen. Gar looked at Rachael confused and shrugged his shoulders.
