I walk into Mea's hospital room at 8 am the next morning to see both her and Jax fast asleep. I drop off my things and head back out to grab some breakfast for when Jax wakes up.
My best friend hasn't left his twin's side since she was admitted into the hospital, besides when his mom forced him to go home to shower and rest.
I'm so glad my girlfriend is awake and that she's doing okay. I was devastated when I thought that we had lost her. I felt like I couldn't breathe and that I was dying. I wished that I was the one in that bed and not her. But she's okay now and I can finally breathe easy.
I go to Chick-fil-A and grab some breakfast sandwiches and hash browns then head back to the hospital. When I get there, Mea is awake and watching Spongebob with the volume low so as not to wake up Jax.
"Hey beautiful, how are you feeling," I ask her, walking over to her and placing a kiss on her lips.
"Hey, I'm okay. I definitely feel better than I did yesterday," she tells me with a small smile. She notices the Chick-fil-A bag and asks if there is anything for her.
"I'm sorry baby, you know you have to eat the hospital food. I may be able to sneak you a few hash browns if you don't tell," I tell her with an apologetic smile.
"Ugh, I can't wait to get out of here and eat some real food," she pouts.
We continue to talk quietly until Jax wakes up. I give him his food, which has gone cold but he doesn't seem to care, and he joins in our conversation.
"Jenna should be here soon," he tells us.
"Yay! I miss my best friend," Mea says excitedly, clapping her hands.
I chuckle at her cuteness and kiss her on the cheek, to which she gives me a beaming smile. I'm gonna marry this girl one day. She is the best thing in my life and I don't know what I would do without her in my life.
"Why are you looking at me like that," she asks me shyly.
"No reason, I just love you and I'm so happy to have you in my life," I tell her.
"I love you too Jake," she tells me.
"Eww, get a room you two," Jax puts his two cents in.
"Technically this is a room," I tell him with a smirk.
"You know what I mean dickwad," he replies with an eye-roll, making both me and Mea laugh at him.

*Jenna*
"Hey bish," I say when I walk into my best friend's hospital room.
She laughs at my announcement of my presence and opens her arms wide for some best friend loving.
"I missed you crazy," she murmurs into my neck, giving me a gentle squeeze.
"I missed you more, girly," I reply back to her, giving her a gentle squeeze in return, making sure not to be too hard so I don't hurt her.
I pull back and go sit on my boyfriend's lap because I can.
"How is everyone doing this morning," I ask everyone, which includes Mea, Jax, and Jake.
"Pretty good now that this one is awake and talking," Jake says, grabbing his girlfriend's hand and giving it a firm squeeze. I'm so glad she has someone as great as Jake, who looks at her like she is his whole world.
"I'm okay, a bit sore but nothing too bad," Mea tells me, gazing lovingly at Jake.
"What about you handsome," I ask Jax, snuggling into him, putting my face in his neck, and giving him a kiss there.
He shivers and squeezes me a little tighter to him. "I'm fantastic. Can't wait to be alone with you."
"Look who needs to get a room now," Jake teases Jax, who flips him the bird.
Seeing my friends joking with each other and happy makes me feel so warm inside. When Mea got hurt I thought the world was ending. We have been friends since we were babies and I couldn't imagine my life without her. She has been my rock for so long and we are more than best friends, we are sisters.
I look at her for a minute to just take it in that she is here with us and that she is okay. This girl is such a fighter and she is my inspiration in life.
I reach over and grab her hand, giving it a squeeze.
"I love you, slut," I tell her.
"I love you too, hoe," she replies, giving my hand a squeeze back.
The four of us spend the day hanging out and playing board games. Everyone comes around throughout the day. Xahlia was so excited to see her big sister awake and told her that she couldn't wait for her to come home and play princesses with her. She looks up to and loves her big sister so much and I can tell that Mea loves her so much as well.
"As soon as I'm out of here, we'll play princesses and play dress up and anything else that you want to do," Mea promises her, making Lia beam at her brightly.
"Yay! I love you MeMe," Lia shouts, about to jump on her, but her dad scoops her up before she can do any damage.
"You have to be gentle with sissy because she is still hurt," he tells her sternly.
"Oh, sorry MeMe," Lia says shamefully.
"It's okay, little one," Mea tells her reaching up to give her sister a kiss on the cheek, which makes her smile brightly.
A nurse comes in and tells us that visiting hours will be over soon and that two people can stay with her.
"How about you guys stay with her tonight? Eli and I will watch Lia and make sure she's in bed on time," Jax tells his parents.
"Thanks, sweetheart," their mother says gratefully.
"No problem, I know I've been hogging all her time and figured I should let someone else have some time with her," he tells them.
"Wow, you're so generous," his dad says sarcastically.
"Always here to please!"
"Babe, you're an idiot," I tell him, then give him a kiss to soften the blow.
"Hurtful," he says with a pout.
"I still love you," I tell him with a smile.
"I love you more," he pecks my lips.
Everyone says their goodbyes to Mea and we all head out, minus her parents.
