I wake to a soft little finger stroking my nose. I open my eyes to see Ava staring at me.

"You got a boo boo, Momma," her tiny hand touches my eye.

"I know, sweetie."

"Bad man hurt you?" she asks

Before I can respond, I hear Reid clear his throat and look up to see him standing at the foot of the bed with a plate in his hand and a coffee mug in the other. "Ava and I made you breakfast. She fixed you some toast with strawberry jam," he smiles. An excited Ava jumps off the bed and retrieves the plate from him and carefully carries it, gently placing it next to me on the bed.

"I put da stwaberwy jams on by myself," she giggles as she eagerly waits for me to take a bite.

"It's delicious. Thank you, sweetie," I express, causing her face to light up with happiness. Reid hands me my coffee, and I sip on it while Ava steals a bite of my breakfast.

"Bella is here. Would it be okay if she took Ava for a little while today? We need to talk," he says.

I'm not sure what we would need to talk about other than what happened last night. "I don't mind."

"She's downstairs, and she brought you some clothes. I'll send her up."

I don’t know how well that’s going to work. Bella is much shorter than I am. Leaning down, he kisses me then leaves. Ava climbs onto the bed and sits cross-legged on the bed brushing her dollie's hair. There is a light knock on the bedroom door followed by Bella entering the room and closing the door behind her. Holding up a bag, she greets me," I have some clothes, and before you say it, I raided Alba's closet for them. You two are close in height and size. At least she kept it basic. Jeans, black t-shirt, and a pair of sandals. "Thanks," I tell her.

Getting out of bed, I strip out of Reid's clothes and start to put on the others. Surprisingly, my side is feeling much better. I look down at the bruises covering my side before slipping the shirt over my head.

I walk into the bathroom to do something with my hair. Bella leans against the door frame and looks over her shoulder before speaking, "You doing okay?"

"Besides being sore, I'm fine. If you're asking emotionally, that's hard to say right now. My feelings are a bit all over the place. I'm grateful the guys found me when they did. I'm scared; I'm confused. Inside, I'm a mess." I admit to her.

"I understand. Just know I'm here if you need to talk and Reid will take care of you and Ava. As far as the attacker, I don’t know what became of him. I didn’t ask, and the guys wouldn’t tell."
