Day's POV

I woke up to the sound of the phone ringing and I slowly got up to go get it. I winced as I sat up and my back popped loudly. Who the hell would even be calling me at 5:30 in the morning? I answered the phone with a very angry and not so pleasant sounding "What?"

"Miss Keelington? This is Linda from the Bullet East Emergency Hospital. We would like to inform you that your brother is awake and stable. You may come and visit him, but not for a long period of time. He does need his rest." A lady, Linda, informed me from the other end of the phone call.

"I'm sorry but I think you have the wrong number. My brother is dead. He died three days ago." I said confused as O started to walk downstairs were I could already hear Louis watching t.v.

"This is the phone of Miss Day Kellington, am I right?" The lady responded.

I signaled for Louis to listen to the phone call as I put it on speaker and muted the t.v. "Yes but ma'am like I said before my brother is dead."

"Your brother is Hunter Keelington? Twin brother to be exact?"

"Yes." I said looking up to Louis as he stared at the phone not looking at me.

"Then like I said before Miss, he is alive and stable. You may come and see him if you would like at Bullet East Emergency Hospital. Thank you and have a nice day." She hung up before I could answer.

"There is no possible way my brother could be alive right? I mean I saw him. He was dead Louis." I said almost angry about this situation.

"Look Day, when you found your brother he was unconscious, not dead. There was a little chance that he could live and he was rushed to the hospital. He had an incredibly low chance of surviving and we didn't want to worry you about it." Louis said standing up.

"You didn't want to worry me? My brother was actually alive and you didn't want to worry me? I was more worried thinking he was dead! I was planning his funeral for heaven's sake! Are you going to tell me that my mom is alive too?" I screamed also standing up.

"No, Day I'm sorry. I shouldn't have lied to you. Your mom is dead though. That was the truth." He said getting a jacket and shoes on.

"Where are you going?" I asked.

"Don't you want to see your brother?"

"Day!" My brother smiled as I walked into his hospital room and I immediately started crying.

"Hunter! I thought you were dead!" I cried sitting down on his bed were he was sitting up and he wrapped his arms around me.

"It's okay. I'm here now." He rubbed my head.

"When do you get to come home?"

"Later on today. I woke up yesterday and they did all these tests and stuff on me to male sure I'm okay." He smiled.

"Yesterday? They only called me an hour ago." I stayed confused.

"Probably just wanted to make sure that I was okay. Are you okay? Are you safe? Who are you staying with?" Hinter started asking protectively.

"Yes Hunter I'm fine. That is one of dad's detectives. I'm staying at another one of dad's house with him." I explained pointing out into the hall. "How are you though? You are the one who got stabbed."

"Surprisingly okay. It doesn't actually hurt that much." He smiled as if proving he was okay.

"Good. Do you need anything? Are you hungry?" I asked wiping the tears away from my eyes and standing up. I looked out of the clear glass door where I could see Louis waiting patiently. I made him stay out there one because I was pissed at him and two because I wanted alone time with Hunter. This was all too much for one day.

"No I'm alright I just want to get out of here. It smells like death and old people." He joked.

"I will ask the doctor how much longer you have to stay and when I can get you signed put okay?" I asked patting his leg.

Once he nodded I headed out the door and sown the hall where I could see the nurses desk. I heard Louis get up behind me and start following me. I hated being treated like a little kid who couldn't go five feet away from my mommy before I was in trouble.

"Hi, can I speak to Hunter Keelington's doctor please?" I asked the nurse and she nodded, pulling out a file with my brother's name on it.

"Are you his sister?" The nice lady asked.

"Yes I am." I replied and she pressed a few buttons on the phone before picking it up and waiting for it to dial.

"Can you please come down to the Southern Wing main help desk to talk to Hunter Keelington's sister please?" They lady asked them paused, she added an "Okay." and hung up the phone. "You can wait right over there sweetie. Do you need anything?"

"No thank you ma'am." I smiled sweetly at how kind the old lady was.

A few minuets later a doctor who I guessed was my brother's went over to the nurses desk, asked they lady a question, and came over to me once the lady pointed over to wear I was siting.

"Hi, you're Day Keelington?" He smiled and I nodded shaking his hand as he introduced himself. "Nice to meet you I'm Doctor Hale. Your brother Hunter needed a lot of blood put back him and we needed to put stitches in the wound and in the back of his head where he was also injured. He is very lucky to be alive and should rest a lot the next couple of day. We want him to come back for a checkup in a week where we will also take the stitches out and then the week after that for an extra checkup. Just sign here and he is free to go. Any questions?" He asked smiling.

"No sir, but thank you so much for saving my brother's life. It means the world to me." I smiled signing the paper and shaking his hand again.

After I walked away I saw Louis start to follow me again. He was being surprisingly quite and I felt as if I may have made hi feel bad. Then again, he lied to me about my brother being alive.

"I called your dad and told him about Hunter." He finally spoke up. "He is sending another detective to assist me in protecting the both of you. He should be here in a couple of hours."

"Okay. Hunter can come home now. He needs to change but all he has is the jeans from the other night. His shirt is ruined."

"He can wear my jacket at least until we get home." He unzipped the black jacket and handed it to me.

"Okay. Thanks." I said and we both entered my brother's room.

---

After we finally got home and got my brother into some new clothes and situated in his room, he immediately fell asleep. Louis was locked up in the office on the phone for a long time now and came out only to inform me that the other guy would be here in about two minuets.

As soon as I sat down to watch t.v. I heard the doorbell ring and Louis call out "I got it!"

Soon him and a curly haired and green eyed kid walked in the living room. The kid looked barely old enough to be considered an adult.

"Day this is Harry and Harry this is Day." He introduced us.

"Hey." I smiled and he replied back the same way.

"Harry here is kind of new to this. Only been doing it it for about three years. It's incredible how amazing he is. His father worked for your dad and taught him everything he knows. Better than even some of the older guys." Louis informed me.

"Really? Sounds pretty cool." I said impressed.

"Thank you. Louis here always brags about me though. I'm his favorite person ever." He whispered the last part loudly so Louis could still hear him and laughed.

His curls were trying to be tamed by the beanie on his head and his laugh was the cutest thing ever. Tattoos spread all over his arms and the black button up shirt the was wearing hat was only half buttoned revealed even more tattoos.

Would it be totally inapropriate for me to like him?

Notes

Found time to update today also! For those of you who think this sounds a lot like My Protector, I read the first few chapters and I will admit that it does. But like I said before, a created this story over a year ago so there is no way I could have copied her.

On the brighter side... I will have more time to update now and my goal is twice a week. As I become more busy, this may change, but for now twice a week is my goal. (And maybe even more??

Have a great week guys and hope you guys are having a nice day/ night depending on where you live! Love you all!
