57 GI Joe

KYLE'S POV

I woke up with a terrible headache.My head was pounding so hard I could hardly think. I took in my surroundings and realized that I was in hospital. I groaned as I heldmy head and noticed that all my hair had been shaved off and replaced with a bandage. Maya was asleep, curled up beside me.I turned to face her and simply admired her beauty. She looked so peaceful so I didn't want to awake her but her eyes fluttered open slowly and she squinted.

"Good morning babe. Miss me?" I kissed her nose.

"Good morning husband. Enjoying the view?" She said with a smile, her voice hoarse.

"Always." I combed her hair with my fingers. "I love you-you know that right..?"

"..and I love you...forever and always." She leaned forward and kissed me.

"How are the brats? I miss them."

"The twins are fine and Rita's parents came by but you were knocked out."

"Last night was crazy right?" I chuckled.

"Glad you found some humor in it-considering you lost all your hair and now you're looking like GI Joe." She rolled her eyes.

"You like that babe?" I teased her lips.

"Hmmm..maybe..." She purred.

"How's Jamie? And the other guys? I'm sure Rita had a baby last night." I roared with laughter as I winced in pain but it was worth it. I could only imagine how she must have reacted. Rita was such a drama queen.

"She came pretty close." She joined in the laughter.

"What are you two laughing at? Aren't you supposed to have a head injury or something?" Rita walked in and sat by the window.

"Hey RiRi. I was just asking Maya about you." I grinned as I looked at her."How's Jamie?"

"He has a stab wound so they stitched him up. He will be fine. Paul and Richard had minor injuries so they were sent home last night." She waved her hand.

"Good morning all." Dr Bernard breezed in. "It's nice to have you all back here again-for all the wrong reasons as usual." He smirked as he looked around.

"Good morning Doc. Can I go home now? I really miss my kids." I asked as I sat up.

"Yeah you're good to go. Congrats on the twins by the way." He smiled.

"Thanks Dr Bernard." Maya smiled back.

"And Jamie..?" I raised an eyebrow.

"You will have to check with Dr Williams about that-but I think we are going to keep him for a few days. I'll get your discharge papers ready." He turned and left.

"Dr Williams." I rolled my eyes.

"Please don't start with that." Maya frowned.

"Fill me in?" Rita scooted closer.

"He was hitting on my wife-and I was right there." I pursed my lips.

"What?? He's hot though..but what?" She opened her eyes wide.

"He will probably try making a move again-since he thinks I cant do anything about it." I scowled.

"Kyle stop being a big baby." Maya sighed, exasperated.

"So when did this happen? How did I miss it?" Rita asked, curious.

"The last time my wife was in this hospital, he decided to declare his undying love for her." I rolled my eyes.

"Good morning all. Kyle, I hope you're feeling better." Dr Williams strolled in leisurely.

"Dr Williams. This is a private ward and you're not my doctor. What do you want?" I crossed my arms.

"Maya can I have a word?" He totally ignored me and looked pointedly at Maya.

"No." I firmly stated as I held onto Maya's arm.

"Kyle.." She sighed.

"I'll just be a minute." He said.

"The answer is still no." I scowled.

"Dr Williams, I think it's better for all of us if you leave?" Maya pleaded with her eyes.

"Sure but I really need to see you before you leave." He said nonchalantly.

"She said leave." I said forcefully as I pointed at the door. He started to walk out and then paused midway.

"Dr Williams..please?" Rita stood and gestured to the door with her head.

"Kyle..I'm sorry-I never meant to disrespect you-or Maya but there's no reason for you to be insecure." He turned around and left.

"Breathe.." Maya rubbed my back.

"Don't read too much into it Ky..besides my sister over here is head over heels in love with you. Don't stress you've got her on lock-down dude." Rita tried to lighten the mood. "I'm going to check on Jamie and give you guys a chance to talk."

"I'm okay..Sorry babe." I exhaled loudly.

"You shouldn't be husband." She giggled and kissed my chin.

"I'm not..it's just that he pushes me too far." I groaned.

"Let me check on those discharge papers. I think we need to get you out of here before you commit a crime." She laughed as she hopped off the bed.

"Please walk with me to Jamie's room before you do that. I need to check on him." I climbed out of the bed slowly and swayed.

"Hey, are you okay." She ran to my side and held me up. Concern all over her face.

"Just a little dizzy..give me a minute." I shut my eyes as waves of dizziness washed over me.

"Look who's here to take Daddy home." Rita's parents wheeled in the twins.

"Heyyy.." Kyle gushed and fell back into a chair as he pulled the stroller closer to him.

"Hey there Eth and Rach. Did you miss daddy? You did didn't you?" His lifted the twins and placed them on his lap, kissing both of them.

"Hie Kyle. Good to see you're alive." Mrs Anderson chuckled.

"I was about to check on Jamie..want to come?" I asked Rita's parents.

"Yes please. Lead the way." Mr Anderson said said.

""Kyle, we will be back to get you guys in a bit." Maya said.

My phone vibrated on the nightstand and I put the twins back in the stroller then I took the call.

"Hie there Kyle. Miss me much? We need to meet."

My body froze and I dropped the call without responding.

He was back.
