The next day

Amy and Zach had woke up bright and early, taking turns to freshen up whilst attending to Roserie. Amy had changed into a satin trouser pajama set and threw on a long cardigan on top while Zach wore jeans and a shirt.

"What are you looking for?" Zach asked from the sitting area, tablet in hand. He had been going through some work when he got distracted with Amy\'s turning and fussing.

"My scrunch, have you seen it?"

"Behind you, second drawer."

"Thanks babe."

"Mm-hm."

She half got out of bed to retrieve it before resuming her sitting cross-legged beside her sleeping daughter. As soon as she started to gather her hair in a ponytail, the catheter quickly changed her mind. Frustrated. She really wanted her hair out of the way.

"What do you need?" He asked and her response was a wave of the scrunch. He put down the tablet and walked over to stand behind her. He first started gathering the hair in his hands. Feeling the gentle pull, Amy raised the scrunch up to him. He looked conflicted as he looked between the scrunch and the hair. "Hmm..."

"Babe, do you know how to do it?"

"I was just about to ask", he confessed.

"Okay, um.....", She looked around and her eyes fell on the sheets. She gathered a handful in one hand. "So pretend this is my hair."

"Mm."

"Gather it in one hand, then wear the scrunch around the fingers of your other hand like this. Pass my hair to this hand and loop it through the scrunch, twist it, then loop again, then another twist and loop. That\'s it."

"Sounds easy", he nodded to himself before collecting the scrunch. Amy felt him gather her hair and she relaxed against his actions. "I love it when you wear your hair down, you look really beautiful. Why do you want to tie it up?"

"Thank you babe, but I just want it out of the way. Wait, so do I look ugly with it up?"

"No, you\'re very beautiful Amy, hair down or up, I\'m just letting you know my preference", he replied.

She blushed at his compliment. "Okay, noted. Then how about hair color, you\'ve seen me in brown hair and now blond, which do you prefer?"

"Both."

"You\'re not just saying that, are you?"

"I\'m serious. Darling, one more time."

She was wondering what until she saw the scrunch brought down. She bit back her lower lip not to laugh but she could not blame him, it was his first time. So, she explained to him once more. Seeing as he got it, he gave it another go.

"I know you wanted to laugh", he complained making her chuckle. "So, do you remember us talking about acquiring Greco?"

"Yes."

"So, that\'s in the process right now but I had another thought I wanted to discuss with you. I was thinking of shutting it down temporarily."

"Okay?"

"Mm. I want to renovate the secret lab to be an extension of an underground parking lot. We\'ll change a few other things of course but that was the main focus." He had successfully tied it up and sat down to continue having their conversation.

"Sounds good. How long will you keep it shut down?"

"Well, up until your hospital is up and running. This one will be the main supply for medicine to it."

She nodded. That will give people enough time to recover from the Greco incident. And if Zach were to start operating the company now, it would look like he was using it\'s current tainted fame as a marketing technique. He was better than that, Amy understood this.

"About that, I want to help, I know it\'s a lot to invest in a hospital."

"No, it\'s my gift to you. I\'ve got it covered", he said with a smile.

"But-"

"But if, not when, but if I ever go broke, I\'ll have you to look after us."

"Fine", she chuckled pulling him by the shirt to give him a kiss. "And thank you for tying my hair."

"You\'re welcome." She gave him another kiss when his phone started to vibrate from his pocket. He broke the kiss, giving her one last peck before answering the phone. "Rider... I\'ll call you back."

"What\'s wrong?" She asked, seeing his serious expression.

"Dylan wants to visit you."

"Oh." He was the last person she expected to see so soon. But thinking of how the journey has been, her expression could not help but darken. "Okay. Let him."

As promised, he called back his friend and informed him. A knock was heard and in strutted Suzy being followed by on of Zach\'s men carrying a basket. "Good morning love birds."

"Hey Suzy", Amy greeted with a smile.

"Hey. Mr. Frost", Suzy acknowledged.

"Dr. Glynne", Zach replied with a cold demeanor. Amy gave him a warning look and he softened a little.

"Am I missing something?" Suzy had cleared caught onto the silent communication.

"No, no. How are you? Is that for me?" She pointed at the basket she came in with.

"I\'m fine. Mrs. Thornton made this for you."

"That\'s sweet of her." She got out of bed to help set things up on the table dragging her IV stand along with her.

"You\'re doing much better today, I see", she mused, seeing Amy walk about.

"Yeah, a bit dizzy but nothing I can\'t handle", Amy sat down on a sofa and started to set the table along with Suzy. The latter narrowed her eyes in suspicion as she looked at her friend who caught her stare. "What?"

"You\'re not...... putting on an act just because of what I said yesterday, are you?"

"What are you..? Oh my gosh", Amy stopped to pinch her glabella when realization dawned on her. Zach\'s lips lifted into a smirk, his eyes practically screaming \'I told you so\'. Amy ignored him and looked at her friend with an exasperated expression.

"I\'ll just remind you that it\'s a doctor\'s order not that I\'m imposing anything", as she finished speaking, she looked back at Zach.

"I am not doing this right now, food is here, I\'m hungry. I don\'t have the energy for this", Amy ranted making the two watch her in amusement.

The three proceeded to have breakfast with light conversation going around, well, it was more of the two ladies talking. The doctor came in to check on Amy along with the nurse who administered medication to her. He did a physical, examining her to see if there were any new signs.

"I\'m happy to say that you\'re making progress", he said with a confident smile. "We\'ll observe you for the rest of the day, if nothing changes then you can leave tomorrow morning."

"I like the sound of that", Amy smiled, very pleased by the news.

"Good. I\'m sure Dr. Glynne already told you but plenty of rest, no strenuous exercises of any sort until you\'re in the clear", he reminded.

"Understood", Amy nodded.

"Great, then I\'ll leave you lot. Mr. Frost, Dr. Glynne", he greeted once more before taking his leave.

After watching him leave, Suzy decided to speak up. "Well, I don\'t mean to be a dooche but it seems like I won\'t be needed here anymore."

"Thank you for everything Suzy. We literally pulled you away from work", Amy gave her an apologetic look.

"Nonsense. What are friends for. I\'m just glad he was easy to work with, from the time I spoke to him on the phone to now", she replied.

Suzy knew how stubborn certain doctors would be when it came down to receiving input or sharing information with another doctor. They usually felt their authority was being questioned. And faced with a high profile patient like Amy, they would feel entitled. But this doctor was none of those.

"I\'ll have a ride arranged for you", Zach spoke. "Thank you for coming through."

"Yes, thank you Suzy, for everything", Amy said with sincerity.

"Gosh guys, stop thanking me. We\'re friends!"

She stayed for a little longer chatting away with her friend and carrying Roserie when the little one woke up. When it was time to leave, the two friends exchanged a bear hug with Amy making her promise to call when she gets back home safely in West Village. Not long after Suzy left, another knock was heard.

"I\'ll get it", Amy said seeing Zach was occupied with Roserie.

She was still in high spirits from Suzy\'s visit only for all of that to be wiped away when she opened the door. Three men stood at the door, two at the back she did not recognize but got an idea as to who they were seeing the one in front giving her a big smile.

"Boss!"

"Dylan."
