"Is she okay?" Both me and Deloris asked her. She barely nodded. She's fine but we want to discuss some things just please... Follow me." We both trailed behind the nurse as we poured into Anastasia's room.

Even though Anastasia is gorgeous, her condition was horrible.

There was an ivy stuck in her arm, a breathing tube coming from her throat. All that filled the room were the sounds of her heart monitor. The nurse pulled up x-rays on the small screens. She looked at us and exhaled. "Dr. Mandsol will be right with you. Do you guys have any questions?" Deloris stuttered before she asked. "Is she awake?" Her voice was a bare whisper.

"Right now, she's sleeping due to the medicine we gave her, but it'll wear off in a few minutes." And with that, she quietly left the room.

Anastasia Pov

My whole body aches.

I mean my whole body is throbbing. I know the aftermath will end up in bruises. I felt like I couldn't even move. My eyes were still closed, because it was painful to even lift my eyelids. After a few tries, I opened my eyes but the light was too bright. On a different note, I knew someone(s) were there because their conversation weren't exactly quiet.

"Oh my gosh, my baby." I heard a woman sniffle. She had come over and stroked my hair. "I'm so so sorry Ana, for everything!" She was hysterical by this time. She wept on my left thigh and I let out a loud groan. "Doctor, Doctor! She's awake!" A mans voice yelled.

Whoever this woman was, she was adding more pressure to my thigh. "Oww!" I yelled out. I heard people running inside my room then, the next moment, the weight of the woman was off me, accompanied by screaming.

I was about to go completely insane. I pulled the tube out of my mouth and was panting hard. I heard a lot of commotion so I opened my eyes but the lights were unbearable.

"SOMEONE PLEASE TURN OFF THESE DAMN LIGHTS!" That instant, it was dim in the room and my eyes could finally relax.

"Baby, are you okay?" I remembered who it was. The man who's been my light through the dark tunnel. I just let out short breaths and smile a little. "I'm fine now." He smiled and kissed my forehead.

"LET ME SEE HER. THATS MY DAUGHTER IN THERE!!" My body went numb because it was my mother. She ran into the room and my body went into panic mode. When her eyes scanned me, she let out a faint smile, but I felt nothing but hatred towards this woman. "Get her out of here." I whispered to Michael. Michael looked uneasy as he tried convincing my mother to leave.

But of course, her stubborn ass wouldn't leave. That made her come closer and my heart beats increased. She was coming way too close to me and I couldn't handle the pressure. "SOMEONE GET HER AWAY FROM ME PLEASE!"

"Ana, baby I'm so-"

"GET AWAY FROM ME, MICHAEL SHES GOING TO KILL ME!" I yelled.

"Baby, I promise, I'm not going to hurt you." She attempted to touch me but I grabbed her hands and threw her back a little.

"GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME! YOU HATE ME RIGHT, SO STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME!"

She stood frozen and for the first time, she actually listened. She composed herself and began to leave the room, with tears pouring down her face and all. Before she left the room, she lingered by the door and looked back at me. "I'm sorry Ana, I love you." She croaked. She left the room accompanied by the hospital security.

Once everyone was gone, I let out a frustrated sigh. "Baby are you good?" Michael asked softly.

"All of a sudden she cares right?" I smirked. "She didn't care when my dad would BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF ME EVERY FUCKING DAY RIGHT?!" I continued laughing. Both my mother and father pushed me to the point where I was damn near delirious.

I watched how completely broken she was, and that broke my heart even more. She was at the point where she had enough. I could see it written all over her face. I didn't know what to do to calm her down. I would either stroke her angelic face or her beautiful hair. Her heart beats were now steady and she was relaxed.

The doctor finally came in and reviewed her x-rays. He came over to us and waved his hand. "Hello Ana." She smiled and waved back. "Hello Steve!" I was confused. Did they know each other from before or something.

"Well, guys, I do have some news." Ana rolled her eyes and exhaled loudly. "The bad news is that your going to be bedridden for a month." She slowly nodded her head in understanding. "I'll prescribe you some pain killers to ease the bruises." Before the doctor had a chance to leave the room, he looked at me. "Mr. Jackson, may I talk to you for a moment?" I looked at Ana and she approved. I kissed her hand and went to see what Dr.Mandsol wanted.

Once we were outside, he shut the door behind him and looked at me. "So, you know Ana correct?" I answered with a yes and he nodded. "She's my girlfriend." I confessed. He grinned and patted my shoulder, but the grin faded right after. "Mr. Jackson, I need a favor from you." I leaned in to show I was focused on what he was saying. "Okay?" I said. "Get Anastasia out of that house!" He asserted.

"Mr.Jackson, Ana has been coming to this hospital so many times because of this incident." My eyes widened. "You know?" He whispered a silent yes. "I've always wanted to tell child services but she would always refuse and started to cry. She finally admitted when she was 14 about what had been going on." He took a pause, then continued speaking.

"Do whatever you have to.. To get her out of there, she's not safe there." I smiled and nodded. "I promise I'll get her out of there." I said re assuring. "Thank you, she'll be let out in a few days so I'll call you okay?" I nodded as he went the other direction and I went back in the room.

When I opened the door, Ana immediately sat up. "Is everything okay?" She whispered. I nodded. I sat right next to her bed, put her hand in mine and looked into her deep brown eyes. "Ana, please believe what I'm about to tell you, please keep an open mind." I pleaded. "Okay, now your scaring me." she said. I shook my finger in her face. "I want you to stay with me."

Before she had time to answer back, I cut her off. "Ana, listen. Dr. Mandsol has told me that you've been in the hospital many times because of this." I could feel her squirming in her seat. "I need to get you out of that environment, it's too dangerous for you baby. Just.. Ana please thin-" she cut me off by putting her finger on my lips and smiled.

"Michael, shut up." She said laughing. That initiated my chuckling as I stated at her. "I'll go with you." She whispered. My eyes grew wide, just like my smile as I kissed her all over her face.

"I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU TO STAY AWAY FROM MY DAUGHTER!"

Me and Ana both pulled back to see her father, mad as hell, standing by the door.
