Chapter 154

3rd Person

“Shhh, you’re gonna wakes him!” Paisley, whispered, scolding her brothers when they started to get a little too rowdy at Ethan’s bedside.

“When is he gonna gets up, anyway?” Parker frowned. “He’s been sleeping forevers!”

“Mommy says we haves to give him time.” Riley reminded him, peeking up over the edge of the bed. “He looks really sleepy.”

“Well a course he does.” Ryder responded wryly, everyone looks sleepy when they’re sleeping.”

“You know what I mean.” Riley countered archly. “

Like he needs rest.”

“Are you pups being good?” Linda’s voice sounded at the doorway. She’d been checking in at the nurses station when the pups disappeared from her side. Of course, it didn’t take her long to find them at all. They’d been trying to sneak into Ethan’s room all night, not understanding the hospital’s rules about visiting hours.

“Yes Auntie Linda.” They chimed in unison.

“Are you sure about that?” Ethan’s groggy voice surprised them all, and five sets of feet left the ground as they positively leapt into the air.

“Daddy!” Ryder, Riley, Parker and Paisley were instantly at his side, clambering around him in excitement.

“Hello pups.” He grinned, still not awake enough to open his eyes. “I’m sorry if I scared you.'”

“We weren’t scared Daddy!” Parker insisted. Riley nudged him with her elbow, and he flushed. “At least not very scared.”

“You were so brave” Paisley praised. “We couldn’ really see the fights, but we could hear you!”

“You were really mads.” Ryder adds, his eyes going wide at the memory.

“Are you all okay?” Ethan asked, reaching for them blindly. The pups went to him promptly, snugling up against the bed and eyeing the narrow mattress as if trying to figure out if there was room for them too.

Where’s your Mommy?”

“We’re fine. Mommy too – but she’s in another room” Parker explained.
