OH

MY

GOD

"Kate." I whisper and get her attention.

"What?"

"I felt Anna move her hand."

"WHAT." Kate whisper yells.

Kate goes to the other side of Anna and holds her other hand.

"Anna if you can hear me squeeze my hand." Kate asks then I see the muscles in Anna's hand tense. "Oh my...I'll go get the doctors and call William."

Kate then leaves the room leaving us alone.

"Baby I know you can hear me. Please I need you to open your eyes. It's been a month...I need my princess back." I say then rest my head on Anna's leg.

"I told you I hate being called that." The unmistakable voice of my girlfriend says.

"ANNA." I yell as my head shoots up.

I then proceed to kiss all over my girlfriends face then kiss her lips.

"I missed you." I mumble against her lips.

"I should leave more often if that's the treatment I get when I come bock." Anna says then I smack her arm.

"No. You're not allowed to do this again."

"Yes Ma'am." Anna says as her brother's come into the room.

"I'm gonna go let everyone know." I say and leave the room and get out my phone then call Lucy.

"Hello?" Lucy Bronze says.

"Hey...it's Christen."

"Oh hey."

"Anna's awake."

"WHAT?" Lucy yells. "Okay Steph and I are with England right now so I'll grab her and we'll be down there soon."

"Okay Bye." I say right before Lucy hangs up.

I then dial Gal's number

"Hey Christen." Gal says.

"Gal?"

"Yeah?"

"Anna's awake."

"Oh thank fuck." Gal says and exhales. "I'll try to come visit..."

"I know you're busy." I interrupt. " I just wanted you to know."

"Thank you." Gal says. "I'll see what I can do."

"Alright." I say. "Bye Gal."

"Bye Christen."

After I hang up I walk back into the room and stand back as Anna talks to her brother's and sister-in-laws.

Thank fuck Anna's alive.

"Can you guys give us a moment?" Anna asks.

"Of course." Harry says. "I'm hungry anyways."

The two couples leave the room then Anna scoots over to one side of the bed.

"Come here Princess." Anna says and pats the open space next to her.

I walk over to the hospital bed then lay down next to Anna and put my head in her neck as she wraps her arms around me.

"Don't scare me like that again." I say then instantly burst into tears.

"I've got you princess." Anna whispers then she kisses my hair. "You don't need to be strong anymore...just let it out."

"You died." I sob out.

"Shh." Anna coos and rubs my back. "I'm alive and I'm never going to leave you."

Anna holds me for a while until I get all my emotions out.

"Hello Daughter." I hear a voice that makes my blood boil.

"I don't like him." I mumble.

"NURSE...WILLIAM...HARRY" Anna yells as she rubs my back.

"Is there a problem here?" A nurse asks as I move my head so I'm able to look around.

"I don't want those three anywhere near here." Anna says and points at her father, Camilla, and the Queen.

"Of course." The nurse says as Meghan, Harry, William, and Kate return.

"Get out." William say then he and Harry herd the three intruders out of the room.

"Anna." Kate says.

"Yes?" My girlfriend questions.

Kate smirks then smacks Anna on the forehead.

"Charlotte told me to give that to you and to tell you to wake up.

"Meanie." Anna pouts while rubbing her forehead.

I roll my eyes then wrap my arms around my girlfriend.

"I'm not leaving your side for a while." I whisper.

"I'm fine with that My Love." Anna says with a smile.

"Aww." Meghan teases. "I think I'm gonna be sick."

"Are the guys safe?" Anna asks.

Everyone looks anywhere that isn't Anna.

"No...Please they have to be okay...it's all my fault."

"Anna Look at me." I say and she does. "It's not your fault."

"But if I didn't go they would be alive."

"Baba they were doing their jobs."

"Yeah and their job was to protect me so I got them killed."

"Anna the people that attacked you were the people that killed them."

"Yes, but if I didn't go they'd be alive right now, they'd be able to see their families, they'd be able to eat a cheeseburger...I shouldn't have gone."

"Anna you were doing your job." William says.

"Anna people in the armed forces know this stuff could happen. It's not even remotely your fault. You couldn't of known you'd get ambushed." Harry says.

"They were all going home 4 days later. Ty was going to propose to his girlfriend. Clint was gonna put in a pool for his kids. Marcus was gonna remodel the kitchen for his wife then take his son to his first baseball game...and Danny was so excited to go to his first father daughter dance." Anna says then she starts crying.

"It's okay Baba." I softly say. "Everything will be okay."

We let Anna get her emotions out then Harry and William go get everyone food.

"How long have you been here?" Anna asks.

"1 month 10 hours 32 minutes." I say.

"Well damn." Meghan says.

"I kinda moved into to your hospital room." I shyly say and gesture around the room.

Anna smiles as she looks around then she looks down and strokes my cheek.

"I love you Christen Annemarie Press." Anna says with a smile.

"And I love you Annabeth Sophia Amelia Grace." I say then lean up and kiss my girl.

"As cute as that was." Kate teases. "Anna I can smell you from here so go shower before the boys return with food."

"Meanie." Anna mumbles then sticks her tongue out.

"Come on you dork." I say and get off the bed. "I'll help you shower...and no we will not be having sexy time."

"You're no fun." Anna mumbles as a doctor disconnects her IV.

Meghan and Kate help Anna out of the bed as I stand in front of her and the moment she fully stands up Anna collapses into my arms.

"Why can't I walk?" Anna asks and looks at the doctor in the room.

"The explosion caused you to have nerve damage." The doctor says.

"Will I be able to walk again?" Anna asks as Meghan, Kate, and I sit her on the edge of the bed.

"With rehab yes...I'll leave you to talk."

The doctor leaves and Anna lets out a big sigh.

"What's up?" I question.

"Rehab's gonna suck." Anna says.

"I have an idea for that."

"Oh?"

"Well if you're up for it how about you come to America with me and I help you."
