Their eyes go wide and a huge grin creeps onto Ivan's face. Stefan walks into angels room, me and Ivan both following behind. ''Ah angelica, good to see you awake. How are you feeling?'' I sit in the chair beside angel as Stefan talks to her.

She nods and rests her head back on the pillow. ''I suggest you eat something to get your strength up. You'll be very weak right now''

He injects what I assume to be a painkiller into angelicas IV and leaves the room.

Angel looks up at Ivan with an expression that I cant quite read before turning to me.

''Dante, can I talk to Ivan?'' I'm confused, but I dont question it.

''Sure baby'' I say as I kiss her forehead and stand outside.

What could she want to talk to Ivan about that she'd ask me to leave the room?

After a few minutes Ivan comes out, tears streaming down his face.

''What happened?'' I ask. He smiles and wipes away the tears on his cheek.

''Earlier when I said I just talked to angel and the machine freaked out, I was kind of just pouring my heart out and apparently she heard everything''

I walk back into angelicas room. Shes laying facing towards me, cuddling her stuffed animal in her arms. She looks so vulnerable. I just want to hold her close to me and keep her safe. ''Hey princess, how are you feeling?'' I sit back in my chair and she smiles.

Her eyes go wide, skin turning pale in shock. ''H-hes not dead?'' I shake my head. ''Can I see him?''

I shake my head again. ''I'll ask him to come see you later when he gets discharged, but I dont want you moving'' she nods with a small smile and slowly closes her eyes.

She could have died right there. She could have died in my arms. My nightmares almost came true. I try to shake away the thought of that happening.
