Sadie Wilde

POV

The doctor lead Tia and I to where Dante was. He only walked us until by the door, letting us in.

Tia and I walk into Dante’s room, I smile when I see him awake and well. I couldn’t explain how relieved I am to see him awake.

“Tia, Sadie.” He smiles. He coughs. “Sorry, my chest hurts a little.” He whispers. Rubbing his chest.

I nod.

Tia walks up to him and holds his hand. She kisses his cheek and hands.

I smile when I see her doing that. Dante looks at my best friend lovingly. “Baby I’m okay…” he tells her.

When he starts coughing again, he places the mask back on his face.

Tia fusses over him, I could see him loving it. He made a couple of nurses jokes about her taking care of him.

“How is Beckett?” he asks after a while.

I look at him and shake my head. “He hasn’t woken up yet, from what his brother told us, he hasn’t woken us yet, they don’t know why he’s in a coma they’re running tests to find out why.” I told him what Damon told me.

    Chapter 31 Sadie Wilde POV I sat outside Beckett’s hospital room, waiting to hear any news from his brother or the doctors. I have not gone home since I heard about Beckett. I’ve biting my news for any news, any updates on his condition. Yesterday it did not sound good. We heard back from Dante’s doctors, he is to make a full recovery, he is awake and complaining about the hospital food already. Sitting outside Beckett’s room alone with my thoughts makes me anxious. I can’t stop my mind from running in circles. I know his parents are in there with him, I’ve lost colleagues before it comes with the job, but the thought of losing Beckett King, feels so heart wrenching and heart breaking, I can’t imagine the world losing a man like Beckett. Beckett’s brother has been keeping me out of his parents’ sights because he did not want the questions, even though the waiting room is filled with firefighters. The warehouse fire was left to another station to take care of, they only just got t

    At some point I started caring for Beck, I only want the best for him. I truly cared for Beck. I did. He was one of the few people I did truly care for. After I spoke to Beck a little about just about anything that came to mind... Beck’s younger brother walked into the room, in his uniform. “Hi, sorry I didn’t know someone was in here..” He greets. I smile. “Axel King.” I nod. I stand, I go to walk over to the door, to give him some privacy. “No, please stay…” he sounds like his begging I frown and turn to him. “You want me to stay?” I ask. "I wasn’t going to come, but Damon said I should. I felt relieved when I saw you here. I don’t like seeing him like this." He does not look over at the bed. He looks at the ceiling. I look at Axel for a second thinking about what to say to comfort him... Then I respond. "Yes, I understand. It must be hard for you to see Beck like this." I nod in understanding. He takes a seat on the floor, well technically that was not a seat. "Yeah." He n
