Rico woke to a surprising feeling. He felt someone else... right next to him. Now, usually he slept alone... he opened his eyes to see who it was that was with him. He wasn't very surprised to learn it was Liv. She hadn't woken up yet, but Rico was still very confused. He took a look around, and didn't recognize the room. It wasn't the Brooklyn hotel. It wasn't his House in Milwaukee or his brother's Atlanta residence... where the hell was he?!

"You're up early." Her soft voice said, causing Rico to glance down at her. Their eyes met, and Rico forgot to respond. "Rico?" She nudged him, Snapping him out of it. He flinched. "Sorry. Just... kinda lost right now." She sat up. "Whaaaat? Nah, you know where we are." She said with an adorable smile. Rico didn't seem to share the energy. "Actually... I really don't have a clue." Liv shot upright. "Oh my god... did you hit your head on the bedframe? Rico I told you to tell me if-" Rico cut Liv off by telling her, "Last thing I remember is going through the glass at Summerslam." Liv sat in shocked silence. "Babe, are you okay?" She muttered. Rico heard this. "Uh, What?" She'd never referred to him this way before. "What the hell's the matter with you? You can't tell me you forgot everything about the past few months!" She was a bit upset at this sudden memory loss. Rico paused. "How long ago was my match with Burns?" Liv responded with "Which one?". Rico came to a realization. "Liv, what year is it?" He asked. "Rico, you sound crazy right now-"

Rico stormed out, Liv not yet giving chase, as she was quite underdressed and the house had quite a number of windows. "Is that it? Is this Some Future of some kind? God, What the hell's happening?" Rico heard footsteps. "Rico." It was his brother. "Luke. The hell's going on?" His older brother sighed. "You're out cold, Rico. Stuck inside a dream because of the beating you took."

The doctor signed off on a few more medications, which Luke also signed the forms for. "These can get him back to... y'know, Being awake, right?" Luke asked sternly. The doc sighed. "Look, Mr. Jamison. I'm doing the best I can to get em back." Luke rolled his eyes. "First that Useless sack of shit receptionist made me wait. It took Triple H himself coming and demanding that I be allowed back here to get me passage, despite the fact that, I dunno, he's my fucking brother!!!" The doc took a step back. "L-Let's watch the tone, sir-" Luke angrily turned and waked out. "We could easily find another doctor better than you. You just happened to be closest to the Barclay's Center."

Luke re-entered the waiting room, where Liv was being comforted by Ruby and Aliyah while Ricochet and Aleister discussed some tag team moves to try out. New NXT champ Ethan Bourne anxiously was pacing around, while WWE Champion Rowan Gedling calmly sat near Liv, Aliyah, and Rue. "Mate, stop pacin'. You'll be passed out with how tired you'll be when 'e wakes up." Ethan tried sitting down, but it didn't work. He was just too anxious. Rowan turned his attention to the girls. "Oi, Liv. I know it's hard. He'll be alright. Just a few rough bumps, nothin' ol Rhodie can't take..." Rowan saw Luke. "Anythin'?" Luke tossed a chair through a wall out of anger. "Guy's doing the bare minimum it seems. Pisses me off." Rowan sighed. "I get it, he's your brother, but nows not the time to try interior decorating, Luke. No more flyin' chairs, please?" Luke grunted, slumping against the wall. A loud motorbike sound was heard from outside. Crystal Zamora, better-known by ring name Crystal Torres, had arrived. "Sorry, I was visiting my brother downtown. Is he ok?" She asked. She was a family friend of the Jamison's, And as a Wrestler, She was discovered because she worked at the restaurant Luke's father owned, the Jamison Grill, which Luke was the present day owner Crystal.

"He's still out, Crys." Rowan said with a sigh. "God Dammit, can't These guys just hurry up-" a nurse interjected, "The doctors are doing the best they can!" To which Ethan answered "Suuuuure, and I'm Hulk Hogan!"

Liv had finally stopped her panic attack. "I wanna go." Aliyah and Ruby both exchanged a worried look as Liv pushed them away, Making her way towards the Back. A nurse smiled as she blocked Morgan's way. "Yeah, Sorry. Immediate Family and Staff only. Take a seat Sweethe-" Liv snapped. "Take a seat?! How about this? You let ME through the door before they wheel you out of here in a Body bag." The nurse crossed her arms. "Was that a threat?" Liv's eyes had fire behind them. "Fight me, see what happens..." She read the name tag. "...Betsy." The nurse Laughed. "Oh, shorty's gonna hurt me? What's gonna happen?" Liv grinned a little. "Three things: I hit you. You hit the floor. I go see Rico." The nurse didn't budge. Crystal walked over... now, Crystal was a little more intimidating than Morgan. Torres was 5 foot 9, 150 pounds of Muscle. "We gotta problem, Nurse Bets?" She asked. Crystal's brother lived in Brooklyn, so she knew most of the people around the area. "Just this delinquent who-" Zamora cut her off right there. "Ah. Let her through." The nurse side stepped, no questions asked. Liv bolted for Rico's room number, nearly breaking down when she saw he was still not awake. "How long?" She asked. The doctor sighed. "Expected to be fully conscious in about 16 Hou-"

His eyes shot open, bolting upright. He took a few deep breaths. His vision cleared, with Morgan being the first thing he saw. And his first words to her were...

"A...Are those my sweatpants?" Liv ran over, nearly crossbodying him. She buried her face in his shoulder, hiding her emotions. Rico was still a bit confused. "That was a weird ass dream..." Liv pulled herself together. "I'm glad you're ok."

Rico winced. He reached down to his chest, where a scar had been. He quickly grabbed a scalpel from the trey, Re-opening the scar, then looking for some tweezers to grab something. This sudden self micro surgery made Liv shreik, as he was literally digging around his chest! When he was done, he pulled out 3 small shards of Glass. "Send these to Nicholas on a Necklace that says 'Thanks Asshole'." He said with a Grin.

Liv couldn't help but laugh. He'd broken his body, but not his spirit...

...Yet.
