My body is so used to waking up early that even when I am in a hospital bed I wake up at five in the morning. I slowly sit up and see Angela sleeping on my chest.

When did we fall asleep?

I slowly get out of the bed not touching the stitches or her. I walk over to the other side of the bed and place her on the bed next to mine, I then grab a blanket, open it up and place it over her body.

Why is she so pretty- no I cannot like her. I cannot become soft.

I slowly sit back down on my bed and pull out my phone.

7 unread messages

I open the group chat and notice Gio changed the name

Da Bad Bitches

Gio- Look what I got

Stefano- I swear to GOD if it's bad I'm leaving the group chat

Gio- Don't worry ;)

(Pretend that's Mateo and Angela lol)

Me- How the fuck did you get that?!

Stefano- I'll brb. Gotta plan Gio's funeral.

Me- Gio I know you are there. Answer my question.

Gio- I couldn't sleep last night so I went for a little walk around the house and I saw you love birds cuddling and I took a photo.

Me- If I was not in a hospital bed I would have killed you.

Gio- Mhmm, okay. You probably saved that photo.

I turn off my phone and place it on the charging station on the table. Gio was not wrong, I did save the photo. She just looked so cute- I need to stop, I can't love someone and lose them. Not again.

"Good morning," Angela yawns.

"Buenjorno, Bella," I say and instantly regret it. I really need to chill.

"Are you hungry?" she asks while standing up.

"Yea, just get me a black coffee and some pancakes."

"Okay, I will be right back."

Fuck I am falling for her. Maybe she has a thing for large tattoed duchebags?

Gio walks into the room and tries to hug me but instead I bitch slap him.

"What the fuck was that for?" he asks holding his cheek.

"The photo you took, you dumbass."

"Eh, whatever. One day you will thank me."

Changing the topic I ask, "Who exactly attacked us?"

"The Russians."

"Those motherfuckers. Do we have enough supplies to end this goddamn war?"

"No, we have a few more shipments we need. So in about a month, we will be ready."

"Is it possible to make the shipments arrive faster?"

"Yes, you would have to go to Greece and pick them up there. You know how slow the Greeks are."

"Okay, me, you, Stefano, Angela and a couple of soldiers will go."

"Okay Teo, taking your gi-" he starts before the door squeaks open revealing Angela with pancakes and coffee.

"I got your- Oh good morning Gio," she says walking towards us.

"Did you sleep well?" he asks Angela.

"Um...yea I slept fine. My back is just hurting.

"Oh, well I have to go," Gio says leaving me and Angela alone.

"Open up," she says while holding a fork with a piece of the pancake on it and swinging it side to side like an airplane.

"I did not get shot in the arms and I am not paralyzed I can feed myself."

"I want to do this as a sort of thank you, for everything," she says looking down at the pancakes on her lap.

"Hey look at me," I say while tilting her chin to look into my eyes, "do not feel like you owe me anything."

"Ok, but you still need to eat. My instructor is crippled so I can't even train."

"I am NOT crippled."
