So.... About last night.....
Vanessa sighed and looked over at Nate. He was still asleep. Vanessa couldn't help but feel guilty and fully responsible for what happened. After all, she was the one that egged on Blair.

Shifting in the hospital bed, he woke to the dull burning of that pulled muscle or whatever the hell it was in his chest. With a groan, he opened his eyes and tried to sit up.

Vanessa looked over at him. "You're awake." She breathed a sigh of relief. "Nate, I'm so sorry, I didn't think that she'd actually do anything. I thought she was just bluffing..." She trailed off and looked at him.

"Hey," he said, giving her a tired but winning grin. He felt exhausted for some weird reason. "Are you all right? After last night, I mean."

Vanessa shook her head, "I'm fine." She paused and the looked up, "Nate, do you remember what happened last night?"

He nodded and raised the IV-free arm to rub at the aching spot in his chest. "I remember shoving you. Sorry about that by the way. I'm glad you're not hurt." He frowned and looked her in the eye. "What happened with Blair?"

Vanessa blinked a few times, "Nate, she shot you. Then Haley quite literally killed her with a shovel."

"She what?" He almost bolted from the bed but was stopped by wires and tubes and the dull pain flaring in his chest to something harsh and hot and awful. "Is Haley okay?"

Vanessa nodded. "She's fine. After it happened, she was hysterical. They sedated her and kept her overnight to make sure she was okay. Jack's with her."

He settled back into the bed. "Good. Everyone else is okay too? Chuck and Bri and...um..."

Vanessa nodded again, "Everyone's fine. Nate, I'm so sorry. I didn't actually think she'd do anything."

Reaching out, he grabbed for her hand. "It's fine, Vanessa. None of us really knew what she was capable of and everyone's all right. So it's a win, right?"

Vanessa looked at him, "Nate, you got shot. I'd hardly call that a win."

"I'm alive," he countered, running his thumb over her knuckles with a soft smile. "And I think I heard what you said last night." His grin widened. "Which is definitely a win."

Vanessa smiled, "You heard right. I guess I just needed something to remind me that life is short." She shrugged, "Or something like that."

"Or something like that," he repeated with a small laugh before looking worried. "I mean, you were serious, right?"

"Of course. I'm not that mean. I may get you shot, but at least I mean it when I say that I'll marry you." She gave him a small smile.

"I...uh...don't have a ring. But as soon as they let me out of here, I'll get you whichever one you want."

Vanessa shrugged and smiled, "Surprise me. Most girls don't know what the ring looks like unless you're Bri." She laughed.

"Okay," he said with a nod. "I mean, is there anything you're looking for though? In a ring? Give me a hint at least," he gave her a teasing smile. "I've never done this before."

She smiled broadly, "I know. And anything will be fine. I'm not picky."

He just nodded, his thumb still running back and forth over the back of her hand. "I love you, Vanessa. And I'm glad you're okay after all that happened last night."

"I love you too Nate. And I'm so glad you're okay. I'm so sorry. Had I known that she was actually going to shoot or that you were going to try and be the hero, I would have kept my mouth shut." She sighed, "It was a pretty dumb thing to do though I'm grateful you did."

"Dumb things are kind of what I'm known for, remember," he laughed. "And I wasn't just going to let her shoot you. But," he said, bringing her hand up to his lips, "don't stress over it. No one knew if she was actually going to shoot. I didn't think that physical violence was her style and I don't think anyone else did either."

"You do realize that you could have died, right?" Vanessa said quietly, "Sitting in that waiting room was one of the worst experiences of my life. Nate if you had died, I wouldn't be able to live with myself."
