Emma
As soon as Colby called me, I was excited to talk to him but when his voice was lowered and his voice demeanor had changed, I knew something was definitely wrong. After Colby broke the news to me that my best friend was in the hospital, I was terrified and I rushed myself out from my workplace just to check on her.

"Fuck!"

I made a quick U-Turn into the hospital's parking lot and finally found a place to park my car after struggling for ten minutes. After locking my car, I stormed into the hospital and demanded to see Chloe.

"Excuse me, miss. How may we help you?"

"My name is Emma Wilson and I need to visit Chloe Levine?"

"We're not taking any visitors in her room at this time."

"I'm her best friend; her sister!"

"It depends if they're finished..."

"Finished with what, exactly?"

"She was involved with a tragic injury and she's been undergoing surgery for the last few hours."

"Can you please let me in?"

"I'm afraid I cannot."

While I was arguing with the woman in the front office, I heard a familiar voice emerge.

"Let her come in."

"Joe! How is she?"

His eyes closed for a brief moment, "She's alright, but she's finally out of surgery and she's gonna survive this."

"Survive what? What the fuck happened to her, Joe?"

"Listen, I'll explain to you outside."

"Alright." I sighed.

"Follow me outside."

We walked outside of the hospital for a moment and he brought me to a secluded area and reeled me into a hug.

"Emma. I don't know how you're going to process this, but Chloe almost died because somebody hired a hitman to kill us and not just that, but she jumped in front of the hitman's gun and he shot her instead of me. Her wounds were fatal and she almost developed Hypervolemia due to the excessive blood loss." Joe sighed, "Your best friend tried to save my life and I love her so much."

"I...I have no words, Joe." I replied, feeling defeated and looking down at the ground.

"The good news is that she's gonna be okay. I thought she was dead after I killed that hitman."

"You killed him?"

"Damn right I killed his ass." He huffed, "Once I find out who hired the hitman, I'm going after them too."

"Honestly, I'm liking this Mafia Boss version of you, Joe. Or better yet...Mafia Boss Reigns."

"Ha-Ha." Joe playfully rolled his eyes, "I appreciate the little nickname, Emma, but I'm still worried about Chloe's condition. I know that she'll survive, but..."

"Joe, I promise that Chloe's gonna fight through this and you two will be the cutest couple ever!"

"Thank you." He smiled and paused, "Emma, can you keep a little secret for me?"

"Sure. What is it?"

"I know that Chloe and I haven't been together for a very long time, but I see a future with this woman and she makes me the happiest man in the world and I..."

I interrupted him, "Oh my gosh, are you planning to propose?"

He shook his head, "No, not yet. What I'm saying is, I hope that she'd want to start a family with me someday."

"Roman Reigns thinking about babies? That's a cute sight to see!"

"Well, I've always wanted a kid or two...maybe five?"

"F-Five?"

"Yeah." He laughed, "I wanna be a family man and experience parenthood someday. How does Chloe feel about babies since you're her best friend and all?"

"Don't even get me started, Joe. Chloe and I used to talk about wanting kids back when we were teenagers and she wanted two kids someday."

"Well, I'll make it happen for her someday."

"And you better invite me to your wedding!"

"I will, I will."

"Also, do you think they'll allow me to see Chloe now? I'm worried about her."

"I'm gonna check real quick and I'll shoot you a text if they'll allow you."

"Sounds like a plan!"

Joe
I walked back inside of the hospital and made it into Chloe's hospital room. Nervous, I walked in and seen a few people were standing all around her.

"Is she alright?" I asked.

"Yeah, she's just...not gonna wake up for awhile."

"What? For how long?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Anoa'i, she was placed under some heavy drugs that have her out while we prepared the surgery and she'll be awake very soon. Just give her some patience and she'll wake up eventually."

I deeply allowed a small sigh to escape from my mouth, "Alright, she better."

I waited awhile for Chloe to wake up, but because the doctors were taking care of her and monitoring her every brainwave and body progress after the surgery, I decided to leave the hospital for awhile to collect my thoughts and to find out who hired a hitman to kill the both of us.

I wonder who hired the hit? Do I know them?

So many questions ran throughout my mind.

I was quickly reminded that I needed to ask the doctor if Emma was allowed to come in and visit Chloe and made my way back into the hospital room. I could tell that she was deeply worried for her best friend and I walked over to one of the doctors and cleared my throat before speaking.

"Will Chloe's best friend be allowed to visit?"

"Has she been sick lately?" He asked.

I shook my head, "No."

"Then I guess it's fine, but no longer than an hour and she has to wear her face mask."

"Bet. Thanks, doc."

I pulled out my phone and called Emma for a moment. I'm glad that they'll allow her for an hour before she has to return home. But thankfully she'll be able to see Chloe, even if she's unable to wake up for awhile.

"Joe! Did you talk with them?"

"I did and they said you're allowed to come visit, but you need a mask."

"Aww what? Thankfully I carry one in my purse just in case these things happen."

"Same here, but in my wallet." I chuckled.

"Alright. I'm on my way inside! What room is she in?"

"Two-fourteen."

"Gotcha. I'll be there in five minutes!"

Galina
It's been awhile since we paid a ton of money to Dante to kill both Joe and Chloe. Matter of fact, it's been about a week and a half almost since we last heard from him. Joshua continued to relax on the couch and looked over at me with furrowed eyebrows and a smug look on his face.

"Did you ever find out what happened with Dante?" He asked.

"No? I thought you were gonna do that."

Joshua began to mock me, "I thought you were gonna do that. I never said that, you dumb bitch!"

"Excuse me? And who exactly are you talking to?"

"Clearly you because you cannot comprehend a single thing I've been saying! I told you to call Dante until he picks up the damn phone."

"I have been for the past five hours!"

"Dammit! Fuck!" Joshua says, throwing his fist into the wall.

"You're gonna break the walls down."

"And you care why? This isn't your house."

"Yeah but I don't wanna get caught if the cops are anywhere in sight, dumb ass."

"Huh? What was that?"

"Nothing!"

"That's what I fucking thought."

Joshua has been aggressive towards me ever since we found out Dante hasn't picked up the phone and called us. By now, Joe and Chloe should be dead and he would've told us that the job was done. And we even paid him before he took them out.

...Unless, something happened and he was thrown in prison or the plan backfired.

Colby
After a few long hours on the plane to Toronto, Rebecca and I finally landed and made our way to the hospital to check on Chloe.

When we arrived, we went to the main office and spoke with the woman that was sitting in her office chair and she looked like a bitch.

"May I help you?"

"Uh yeah. We're wanting to visit Chloe Levine."

"You are the second person to ask this already; actually, counting third because I know she's with you too."

I cackled, "My wife? We both see Chloe as our little sister and we want to make sure that she's okay."

"Well, visiting hours are over." She snubbed us, "Come back another time."

"What?" I replied with furrowed eyebrows, "That can't be right. Joe said that you guys were taking in visitors."

"Yeah, but we changed our mind."

"What the fuck?" I huffed, "Let's go, babe."

Rebecca and I walked out of the hospital and I called up Joe.

"Are you both here?"

"Yeah but that office lady won't allow us to come see Chloe."

"I'll get to the bottom of this. I'll get one of Chloe's doctors to allow you both to come in. Emma is here too; so I don't understand why she won't let you both inside."

"Alright. Thanks, man."

After the call ended, I looked over at Rebecca and she was concerned about Chloe's health.

"I'm worried about her, Colby."

"I know, babe. I know." I replied, wrapping my arms around her. "At least we're gonna see her soon if they'll listen to Joe. If they're going to allow Emma, then they should sure as hell allow the both of us."

"I hope. I know I don't know Chloe as much, but I can tell that she's a beautiful person inside and out."

"It shouldn't be long now until Joe calls us back. He said he was going to get to the bottom of the matter."

"Hopefully soon we can finally visit her and also check on Joe. I know he's torn up about all of this."

"Believe me, he's torn up a lot. Sometimes he chokes up when he's on the phone with me about her. To tell you the truth, babe, I believe Joe loves Chloe a lot more than he loved Galina."

"Come to think about it, I can see what you mean."

While we were concerned with Joe and Chloe, Joe started to FaceTime me and I immediately answered.

"Hey man, they'll allow you in but you need to have your masks on. You and Rebecca."

"Do you have our masks, babe?"

"I do. I'll get them out from my purse and we can go inside."

I smiled, "You're the best."

After putting our masks around our faces, we finally went inside and bickered with the woman in the main office and was finally able to go inside and visit Chloe for the first time.
