kate heard voices and when she opened her eyes she was surprised to see blurry images. the images began to get clearer but still fuzzy. "shes awake" said the familiar voice of sarah. the fuzzy images came closer and kate recognised them as people first she saw a woman that must be sarah and a man that must have been jonny as he was dirty with what smelt like oil. "lilly" kate asked. "she is fine shes here" said sarah. "nick" she asked for next. "nick is ok he is resting just now he was injured but is going to be ok" sarah told her. the doctor came in and checked kate over. "it looks as though that bump to the head has knocked something back into place" he said as he was shining a torch into kates eyes. she was given the all clear but was being kept in over night.

nick lay nursing his wounds in the bed as the door opened and in walked kate holding lilly, a beautiful month old little girl. she walked over to him and kissed him so passionatly yet so soft. "you can see" he said when she pulled away. "yes i got my sight back" she answered. she looked at nick then at lilly "she is so beautiful" she said with a tear in her eye. "thats right this is the first time you are seeing her" he said out loud. she sat next to him on the bed. "are you ok" she asked. "i got stabbed when he lost his gun but im fine " he told her. "i thought i was dead when i heard the gun go off, what happened" she asked. " jack had a gun and when the guy turned his back i managed to get it and when he was standing over you about to shoot you i pulled the trigger" he explained. "ive never killed anyone before but it was him or you" he added. "thats twice you have saved my life. its really over" she said to him. nick looked at lilly "do you want to hold her" kate offered and placed their child in his arms.
