Ellie’s point of view
I wake up in Zac’s arms after a peaceful nights sleep with no nightmares; Zac smiles at me when I open my eyes as he says.
“Goodmorning beautiful.”
I giggle as I reply.
“Good morning babe, were you watching me sleep?”
He laughs.

I’m lying on an old mattress on the floor in a room with no windows, I try to sit up, but it makes me feel sick and dizzy.“What the hell happened? Where am I?”I try to remember…..I was in the car with Issac, and there was a crash ….. And.“Ohhh, Noooo Sam…” I gasp.

Butterfly and the CEOChapter 28Zac’s point of view.I hold my breath as I walk into the intensive care room; my heart breaks when I see her. She looks so tiny in that hospital bed surrounded by wires and machines, her face so swollen that I can barely recognise her. The nurse pulls out a chair for me as she says.“Sir, you can take a seat next to the bed; I’ll be at the desk if you need me,”I nod my head before I ask the nurse.“Can I hold her hand?”She smiles as she replies.&nbs

Butterfly and the CEOChapter 31Ellie’s point of view.It’s Friday morning, and Zac and I are waiting in my hospital room for the nurse to bring my discharge papers, so we can finally go home. We decided to go back to Zac’s apartment for a few weeks rather than his house, as there are no stairs once we are inside. There is a knock on the door; as the nurse pops her head around the corner, she smiles as she looks at us both before she says.“Here you go, Ellie; I think that you have everything that you need. I've arranged a follow-up appointment for
