"I won't."

I hugged her carefully trying not to put so much pressure on her.

"Aw." Claire winced in pain as she tried to get up. I helped her fix her position.

"The doctor said that you have to broken ribs." I mentioned.

"Explains the pain. Angy,would you please call the nurses?"

"Okay."

"No,you stay with her,I'll go call them." Dylan offered.

"Thank you." I smiled at him.

I turned to Claire who was raising an eyebrow at me while smirking.

"What?" I asked smiling.

"Nothing." he smirk grew wider making me roll my eyes.

The doctor,the nurse,and Dylan came in after a while. Claire was basically completing the doctors sentences everytime he spoke. She even prescribed the medication for herself.

"Excuse me but how do you know all of this?" he asked disbelieved.

"I'm a doctor,Claire Houston." she answered and held out her hand.

He took her hand and shook it gladly,"Very nice to meet you Dr Houston,I'm Evan Collins."

"Same here Dr Collins." Claire smiled.

It seems that Claire should stay in the hospital for two day and then she'll be able to go back home. The police came in later to interrogate with her because according to the blood test,Claire had too much alcohol in her system. I've taking care of everything concerning the police.

"You don't have to stay here,Dylan." I said. It was getting late and driving back to Los Angeles is really tiring.

"I'm not tired and if I am I can always rent a room in a nearby hotel." he answered.

"Dylan thank you so much for staying with us." Claire thanked.

"No problem."

"I'm going to call the house to check on Adam." I said.

"I need to talk to Adam." Claire said quickly.

"If you're tired it's better-"

"No I need to talk to him,now."

"Okay."

I called the house phone and waited for Kathy to pick up.

"Angelica Morr and Claire Houston's house,who is this?" the nanny's voice spoke.

"Kathy,this is Angela." I said.

"Ms Morr,are you calling from San Francisco? Is Ms Houston okay?"

"Yeah she's fine,how's Adam?"

"Well he hasn't spoken that much since you left but he's okay. He's drawing now."

"That's good,thank you Kathy."

"No problem."

"You didn't tell me anything, right?"

"Not at all."

"Good,I want to speak with him."
"Okay."

I waited for Kathy to call Adam.

"Angy?" Adam spoke.

"Hey buddy." I smiled once hearing his voice.

"Where are you?"

"Umm well I'm in San Francisco."

"Why?"

"I'm here with mommy."

"You're with mommy?! Can I talk to her?!"

"Sure,she wants to talk to you,anyway."

I gave the phone to Claire.

"Adam?" her voice was forced. "Nothing,I'm just a little tired... no no I'm okay...honey no don't cry...I'm sorry too." she began to cry. "I'm so sorry I left like this and didn't call,I was just tired and and I just I'm sorry...I love you too...Adam honey,listen Angy and I are going to stay in San Francisco for a few day and then we'll come back,okay?...I love you honey,goodnight."

I took the phone as she wiped her tears and Dylan gave her some tissues.

"Adam?" I said.

"Yeah?"

"Can you put Kathy on the phone?"

"Okay."

"Yes Ms Morr?" Kathy said.

"Kathy take good care of Adam because Claire and I are going to stay in San Francisco for three days or so."

"Don't worry about that. Tell Ms Houston that I'm praying for her to get well soon."

"Will do. Bye."

"Bye."

I hung up and turned to Claire.

"Kathy is praying for you." I said.
"Bless her." Claire said.

It was planned that I stay with Claire in the hospital but she insisted that Dylan and me go to a hotel and get some sleep and I eventually gave in.

Dylan picked out the nearest hotel to the hospital so we can stay in.

"One or two rooms?" the reception lady asked.

Dylan turned to me,I honestly didn't know if it was right to share or room or not,but I mean we did sleep on the same bed back in Switzerland.

"One?" he questioned more than answered.

"One." I repeated.

She gave us the keys,we went to the elevator,and then to our room.

We were so tired that we didn't bother to take a shower and we slept in our clothes. I placed my chest on Dylan's chest and listened to his heart as it beated strongly.

"Dylan." I whispered.

"Yeah." he answered half asleep.
"Thank you for coming with me today."

"Angela please stop thanking me,it's the least I can do."

"Still,thank you."

He kissed the top of my head.

"It was nothing." he quietly said.
