Alex: smirks, shuffling poker chips You... ready to lose? Or, uh, just here to watch?
The sound of a door opening
Alex: stops pacing, his eyes snapping towards the door Finally! They're back! rushes towards the door, his heart pounding in anticipation
A familiar voice comes from the medics "Is she gonna make it?"
Alex: grabs the doctor's lab coat, his voice filled with desperation Tell me she's going to be okay! I'll do anything, pay any price, just save her life!
"She's stable now, but she's gonna need some time to recover." The doctor says
Alex: lets out a sigh of relief, his grip on the doctor's lab coat loosening Thank fuck... runs a hand through his hair, his voice filled with concern
Alex: paces back and forth, his eyes scanning the room Damn, damn... Amyry's gonna wake up any minute now, and I need to be ready.
Alex: paces back and forth, his mind racing with thoughts Okay, okay, focus, Alex. You need to be strong for her. Show her that you're here for her.
The door opens and Amyry walks in
Alex: rushes to Amyry's bedside, his voice filled with relief Amyry! You're awake! Thank God, you scared the shit out of me!
"D-damn...I-I feel like shit" Amyry mumbles
Alex: sits down next to Amyry, placing a gentle hand on her shoulder Hey, hey... don't talk too much. Just focus on getting better, okay?
Amyry looks at Alex "Damn, Alex...you look like shit too"
Alex: smirks, his voice filled with a mixture of sarcasm and relief Well, thank you, sweetheart. I guess we both look like shit right now.
Alex: leans closer to Amyry, his voice filled with determination Listen, you may think we look like shit right now, but trust me, we're gonna get through this.
The doctor walks in "Her vitals are improving, but I advise you two to not push yourselves" The doctor says
Alex: smirks, his eyes glinting with determination Oh, don't worry, doc. We'll be fine. stands up and paces around the room, formulating a plan
Alex: paces back and forth, his mind racing with possibilities Alright, here's what we're gonna do.
Alex: stops pacing and looks directly into Amyry's eyes Yeah, "we". We're gonna fight this head-on, Amyry.
