Adopted by Andrew Lincoln

Ashley's POV

"Your wound seems to be healing very nice Miss Lincoln" Dr. Hamet smiled as he puts my gown back over my stomach.

"Thanks. Have you tried calling Andy again?" I hopefully look at him.

"We have. Same result as yesterday, I'm sorry" he looks down "I'll be back in to check on you in a couple hours" he smiled before leaving.

It was still very early in the morning. I haven't been able to sleep ever since I've woken up, the nightmares are too real. I look over my shoulder and hear Zack's light snores.

I snuggle into him trying my best to not wake him up, but that ultimately fails. I look over at him shift and open one eye to look at me "hey.." his deep morning voice says.

"Didn't mean to wake you it's just-" I start.

"It's okay" he leans in for a kiss "um you better go get us some breathe mints because I am not kissing you with morning breath" I chuckle placing a finger to his lips.

Zack fake pouts as he goes to get up I grab his sweatshirt sleeve "please don't leave, not yet"

"I won't. But I don't know how much longer I can stay" he says.

"Oh.." I realize his mom must want him home.

"Because I need those breath mints. I really want to kiss the girl I love" he smiles.

Completely relaxing me by his statement I bury my head into the crook of his shoulder and laugh. "With all these sweet sayings you better get them before I try to" I joke.

"I'll be right back, and then we can cuddle and watch movies all day. How does that sound?"

"Sounds very romantic Mister Holt" I try my best to use a British accent.

"See you in a minute" he gets up and leaves.

I grab my controller for my bed, and slowly I move myself so that I'm in a sitting position. I position myself so that I'm comfortable enough to grab my water cup.

As I await for Zack I see my phone on one of my trays, I haven't seen my phone for a while and the last time I posted was from before Comic Con. I shiver at the though of the second day.

I open up my Instagram to see I've gained a lot of followers and have five hundred thousand followers now. "Woah" I say astonished by the amount of people following me.

The last picture I posted was of Zack and I in our Spider-Man masks at Comic Con. I smile lightly because that was the day Zack told me he loved me.

I see thousands of comments on the post, and I click on them for the first time and I see tons of supportive comments. There's lots of comments along the lines of

Get better soon
What horrible person would harm such a sweet girl?
We all love you, hope to see you have a good recovery <3

I smile as I scroll through all these comments. I guess it's nice to have people know your business sometimes.

I hear the door open and I hope that it was Andy, but as the person walks through the door I see it's only Zack. I smile at him even though I'm upset with Andy for leaving me.
