Hey guys! Hope you like this. And this is going up after the new episode from last night. I write these a day in advance so I haven't seen it yet, but odds are I will not be emotionally stable enough to have one for tomorrow. Though you can't predict the future. Let me know what you think, and send me you suggestions. Thank you for reading

"Where is he?" She demanded. Paige gave her a sympathetic look(which made her angry) and Walter started to speak calmly(which also made her angry).
"He's in the ER. They're taking care of him. They said he isn't allowed visitors for an hour or so, but he's gonna be ok," Walter explained.
"What happened?" She questioned.
"It was an accident, Happy. You can't be mad at us," Paige said calmingly reaching out to pat the younger woman's arm.
Happy, of course, hit her arm away, and continued to ask questions, "But what happened?"
"He fell down the stairs," Walter supplied.
"And needed to go to the hospital without visitors?" Happy questioned.
"Well, he fell down the stairs of the diner we were at, and promptly was hit by a car," Sylvester added to the story.
"And he just tripped?" She asked for clarification.
"Yes," they all replied at once. She raised an eyebrow.
"I'll find out eventually," She threatened.
"I pushed him," Paige admitted guiltily.
"You did what?" She questioned slowly.
"I pushed him too hard without meaning to. It was an accident. I'm sorry," Paige said quickly.
"Family of Tobias Curtis," A doctor announced.
"You got lucky," Happy whispered to Paige as they all moved to the doctor.
"He was lucky," the doctor told the group, "Only a few broken bones, he will be completely recovered in a couple of weeks. He can go home tomorrow. Bed rest for a few days and he'll be back to normal."
"Can we see him?" Ralph asked innocently.
"Only for a little bit, maybe a half hour, we want him to rest. One of you can stay with him over night if you want," The doctor said handing them a slip of paper with the room number and information before leaving them alone.
"Alright, everyone in," Happy ordered. "Half and hour and that's it." Everyone pooled into the room. He didn't look as bad as she had been expecting. She had known it wasn't a bad car accident, but you tend to imagine bad things when you don't know. She was relieved to see him ok. Happy sat down in the seat next to his bed hugging her knees to her chest.
"Hey, guys," He smiled weakly.
"Are you ok?" Sylvester asked quickly, "Because hospitals carry lot's of diseases. You don't have one right? The ER is crawling with infection."
"Pretty sure I'm covered," he laughed. He quickly winced from pain, and groaned.
"How long are you guys staying?"
"Bye, Toby," They all chorused for the last time before leaving. They had been there for the half hour they were allowed, and Toby had made sure that Paige knew that he didn't blame her. Happy tried to swallow her own anger, but she wasn't very good at that. When they left, she was relieved.
"Are you ok?" She asked quietly taking one of his hands into both of hers.
"Course I am," He chuckled.
"Be serious, Toby," she ordered.
"I am. I'm completely ok," He argued.
"If you were completely ok, you wouldn't be in the hospital," She retorted.
"It was an accident," He sighed.
"What happened?" She asked.
"We were all messing around after lunch. We were all pushing each other around, and I fell," He explained.
"I shouldn't have spent the weekend with my dad. I should've stayed here," She declared.
"Don't be ridiculous. I am fine. You don't need to be worried," he tried to calm her down.
"I am not worried," she snapped, "You can get hit by as many cars are you want for all I care." She wasn't angry with him of course, and it wasn't true. However, she was frustrated. She didn't like it when bad things happened. She didn't like change.
"I know you care," Toby argued.
"Oh, yeah?" Happy questioned.
"Yeah," he affirmed. "Do you remember when you paid Ralph to take care of me when I was sick?"
"How do you know about that?" She questioned.
"I was awake," he confessed.
"You jerk," she accused.
"Either way, I know you care. You don't want me gone," Toby stated.
"I guess not," She gave in.
"You're lucky," He affirmed.
"Am I now?" She questioned.
"Yeah, you couldn't get rid of me if you tried," He teased.
"I'm very good at getting rid of things," She laughed.
"I'm very persistent," He informed her.
"I would know," She smiled.
"Mm," he sighed.
"You should sleep," She suggested.
"You should sleep too," He tried.
"There's nowhere for me to sleep. I'll just stay here," she asserted.
The team had agreed to all meet up to check on Toby the next day before heading to the garage. "I'll go in first to make sure it's alright that we go in," Paige announced. She didn't want everyone to catch them off-guard: especially not Happy.
She quietly opened the door, and let out a small squeal of happiness. "What happened?" Walter whispered as the rest of the team entered the hospital room. "Is everything alright?"
"They are so cute," Paige whispered back to the group.
"I don't understand," Walter declared. "They are cute?"
"Look at them," Paige whispered back. Happy was still holding onto Toby's hand with both of her own, but now her head was on his thigh and his hand was lost in her hair. The looked content.
"They are sleeping," Walter observed. "There is nothing cute about sleep."
"You're hopeless," Paige sighed.
"If Happy wakes up with us all in here, odds are she will kill us," Sylvester announced.
"Should we leave?" Walter asked looking at Paige.
"We don't want to die," Paige announced, "Let's go."
They had opened the door to leave when a voice asked, "What the hell are you all doing in here?"
"We're dead," Sylvester groaned.
