He couldn't believe it. His... His wife got shot. "Alexa." It came out with a shaky breath.Her breathing was heavy, she was finding it hard to even say anything to him."We need an ambulance." Leo's voice came out shaky once again, but the war was still going on."This shouldn't have happened." The boss's voice was filled with regret."I'm sorry, boss. She came in the way."

Damien shunned him in a bad mood.Joseph took a seat on the couch by their left. "I understand you guys detest me, but I'm sure you've understood why. I'm not a bad person, you know."Damien scoffed. "Whatever.""He's right." James chimed in, coming out of his room. He closed his door shut and walked closer to the kids. "He's also a victim." He made known, sitting down on the couch opposite Joseph.The kids kept quiet wanting him to talk further."He's a kid without parents. Homeless. He saw an opportunity and grabbed it.

ALEXA POV.My eyes flew open, and a sudden ringing in my head made me shut it back. I was confused as to why, and why I'm in a hospital, since the little moment my eyes opened, I was able to catch a glimpse of my environment."Alexa." I heard my name, but I was focused on why my head hurt. I raised my left hand to touch it and felt something wrap around it which made me open my eyes to try and look at what, not caring about the glaring gaze of the light in the room.What on earth..."Alexa Denvers." The familiar voice called again, but this time, in a warning tone.My eyeballs moved to look who, and I recognized it was my best friend. Phoebe Wyatt.One of my best friends."It's Hodge now." I corrected still wondering what was wrapped around my head."Well, that is a bandage dressed around your head." She told me, obviously noticing my discomfort.I furrowed my brows. "Why is a bandage dressed around my head?" I asked, dropping my hand back on the bed."You don't remember?" She asked m

PHOEBE'S POV.(August 18th Wednesday.)A loud sigh came out of Emily. "So, she's pregnant."I nodded. "Yeah. Which means she's stuck with him."Emily took a sip of her coffee and dropped it back down. "I have a thought, Phoebe."I furrowed my brows. "What's that?""Let's investigate. Let's investigate Leonard, and what he wants. Alexa might not be seeing this, but there's something else about him that she doesn't know about."Her words blanked me into thoughts. She made a lot of sense. Alexa likes seeing the good in people, so she never cares about what bad things they've done in the past, or if they have a dark past.If we could just help her into the light.Although... Won't we be meddling in her business?A sigh came out of me at the thought."You seem to be against it." Emily noticed.I shook my head. "Not really. I feel we'll be meddling, and what if we're wrong?'She shrugged. "Then we'll know we are. If we are wrong, then we'll keep shut, but what if we're right, and Leonard is

ALEXA'S POV.It was late at night, and luckily for me, this night will be the last I'll spend in this hospital. I so can't wait to go back home in the...in the warm arms of......I looked at him, as he was focused on whatever he was doing on his phone.I can't help, but feel like I'm the only one feeling this way toward him. Our afternoon misunderstanding was still clear in my memories."You know I can tell you're staring, right?" He hinted without looking at me.I just sighed. "Of course."He dropped his phone on the bed where I sat and looked at me. "Look, you've got something to say, say it, but it shouldn't be about my dad, and me."I nodded. "Yeah, you made that pretty clear."He paled. "I'm really....""I know, and I'm not angry," I assured him."But you've got something to say." He observed studying me.I nodded. "Yeah.""OK. Shoot." He shrugged.I let out a shaky breath thanks to the nervousness that suddenly engulfed me, but it won't stop me. "Um, I wanna ask if you...."The

ALEXA'S POV.2 days later. (August 20th Friday.)I felt a hand wrap around my swollen stomach, as I switched off my gas cooker. Leo laid a kiss on the left side of my neck making me sigh at the feeling. The feeling he's been giving me for a while now... Probably because I'm pregnant. Don't know."I was gonna go wake you up," I informed."Hmm." Was his answer, as he kept giving me kisses.I turned around to look at him and placed my hands on his arms which were still wrapped around me. "We should eat then.""Hmm..." He trailed off.I was beginning to wonder what his problem was."Have I done something bad to the extent that I don't deserve a good morning kiss?" He asked.My eyes widened. "Oh." I smiled. "Sorry."He nodded waiting for it.Oh. Oh, he's gonna let me go for it instead.He raised a brow at me impatiently waiting.I blinked. I think my body is shaking, and I could see a slight smirk on his face. He's obviously liking this.I feel transparent right now because it was obvious
