Matt simply nodded as David thanked Matt for his help in saving his girlfriend, introducing himself as well. "Matthew Tobruk." He replied with a casual tone as he smiled at Stacey as she and David began to speak. She portrayed Matt as some sort of hero, saving her from the guy who had the nerve to attack her. And when David mentioned what he would do if he found out who did this. Matt shook his head.
"I can personally guarantee that man will never harm your girlfriend again. I work very high up in the government, so I'll put out a warning in this area about him. He won't get far..." Matt said with a smile as he watched the pair interact more, their love evident. "Well... I'm going to head off. I'm heading back to DC tomorrow, so I got to get back and pack." Matt said as he walked up to Stacey and smiled as he placed an arm on her shoulder.
"Good luck with your pregnancy, I wish you and your child all the best." Matt said as he then turned to David, extending a hand for him to shake. "It was nice to meet you, David." He said with a smile. After all the goodbyes were made, Matt waved goodbye to the pair as he walked out of the room. Matt hadn't even gotten halfway down the hall before a tear began to fall from his eyes. And for the first time and a long time, Matt truly felt alone.

Stacey smiled a little, as David said that where else would he be when she was in trouble. The feel of his hand in her own was comforting, after what she had been through. David then gave her a small hug, and then tried to hush her down, which worked somewhat. She was just so glad to see him there. Stacey then watched as David acknowledged Matt, and thanked him for taking care of her. Stacey settle a bit in the bed, watching the two men talk.
But then David asked her if everything was alright, and she told him everything, adding that the baby was fine. Stacey smiled back at him, as it seemed he was just as relieved as she was over it all. She then had added about the doctor wanting to keep her overnight in the hospital, and mentioned about her back. Stacey bit on her bottom lip, as David said that if he ever found out who did this all to her, but then he trailed off. She wondered what he might have wanted to say, as Stacey had never really seen David get angry. But there was a first for everything. Matt then said that he personally guaranteed that the man would never harm Stacey again. When he mentioned about the whole working for the government thing, Stacey raised her eyebrows slightly. "Okay. Thanks Matt," she then gave him a smile.
David then took her hand, and spoke about that keeping her in was a good idea, and that they didn't want anything going wrong. Stacey shrugged a little. "I guess not." A nurse then brought in a chair for David to sit in, and he then spoke of maybe asking if he can stay with her the night at the hospital. Stacey gave his hand a gentle squeeze. "That might be nice. I don't feel like being alone right now." Stacey gave him a week smile, and sighed a little, starting to feel the pain starting up in her back.
Matt then said he was going to head off. Stacey nodded, as he put his hand on her shoulder, and said good luck with the pregnancy, wishing them both all the best. "Thanks Matt. Thanks for everything." Stacey then watched as Matt spoke to David, putting his hand out for David to take. Once Matt left the room, Stacey tried to relax herself into the bed. "So. What were you up to when you were called about me? I hope you weren't in the middle of a session with a patient."

After David had introduced himself to the guy who had so obviously helped Stacey he took his hand and gave his own name in return. “It’s good to meet you Matthew, and thank you again.” Matt had then explained what had happened which got David angry, something he seldom was, but Stacey had been hurt, and David was always very protective of his family and well Stacey was as much his family now as his mom and sisters were. He saw Stacey bite down on her lip when he’d showed his anger but then Matt spoke saying he could guarantee that the man would never harm his girlfriend again and went on about being high up in the government. David nodded his head giving Matt an appreciative smile. “Thank you so much, that means a lot to me. I couldn’t stand if anything happened to Stacey and our baby.” David had said ‘our baby’ so easily, in fact he often found it difficult not to refer to Stacey as his wife, as earlier at the reception desk proved.
After Stacey had told David that she was to be kept in overnight, David had suggested he could stay. It wouldn’t bother him to do so, and he knew Stacey would like it. He had stayed the night the very first time he had met her when she’d taken ill in his office. He felt Stacey give his hand a squeeze and say it would be nice as she didn’t feel like being alone right then. “Then you won’t be alone, it’s that simple.” David replied as he then called the nurse over and said that he would like to stay overnight with Stacey, the nurse nodded her head and said that she would get a bed set up for him later in the evening. David thanked her. He looked at Stacey with a warm smile, “See, all sorted. I’m not going anywhere.”
Matt then said he had to get going. David wondered if he really did have to get back to D.C, or if he just felt a bit out of place now that he was there. David could do with some male friends, but then with them being in Nevada and Matt based in D.C. there was little chances of them actually meeting up. David watched as Matt put his hand on Stacey’s arm and spoke to her some more. Matt then turned to David and shook his hand saying it was nice to meet him. “It was nice to meet you too Matthew, I can’t thank you enough for everything you did for Stacey today. If you ever need any help with anything, or you have a friend who could do with some therapy sessions, feel free to give me a call.” He handed Matt his business card and then basically watched as Matt left he and Stacey alone.
Stacey then asked David what he was up to when he got the call about her, hoping he wasn’t in the middle of a session with a patient. He shook his head, and squeezed her hand gently which he was now holding again. “I had luckily just finished a session when I got the call. I had to cancel the next two appointments which were booked in though, but I had to be here. My patients are very understanding, they realise that things can happen, besides sometimes they’re the ones rearranging their appointments.” David laughed a little then and then looked back at Stacey feeling relieved but in a slight worried voice he couldn’t help but say, “I was pretty damned scared though, I’m so glad everything is alright, I don’t know what I would do if I lost you.” The emotion was evident in David’s voice as it cracked slightly toward the end of his words, and he then leaned over to kiss give her a gentle but lingering kiss.

Stacey heard David acknowledge Matt, thanking him, then saying that he couldn't stand if anything happened to Stacey and 'our' baby. She totally understood what he meant. Stacey knew that if it had been David, who was in the hospital bed right now, she would be eternally grateful for what Matt did, and would be rather angry at whoever had hurt him.
After Stacey had said that it would be nice for him to stay the night with her, giving his hand a gentle squeeze. David replied, saying that she wouldn't be alone, and he then said to the nurse that he would like to stay with Stacey. She smiled, sighing a little, liking that the day was getting back to a better place, than it had been earlier. Stacey never wanted to be in that position ever again. She had thought she was safe in this small town, but apparently it didn't matter where you were these days. When David said that it was all sorted, Stacey smiled, "Thanks."
Stacey smiled as David and Matt finished off their conversation. She looked at Matt, and wondered if he had a friend, or a female friend, hoping that he wasn't going to be alone after the drama of before. But really, it seemed that he was able to take care of himself in any situation. Stacey closed her eyes for a few seconds, trying to will the slight pain in her back to ease up. She then opened her eyes to see Matt leave the room.
After she had asked David what he had been up to when the call came through, she listened to what he had to say. Stacey gave him a small smile, and felt the gentle squeeze from his hand. She nodded, as he spoke, and moved a bit in the bed, trying to concentrate on what he was saying. When he laughed, all Stacey could do was smile at him, feeling a bit better. But then he spoke to her, and she heard the concern in his voice. Hearing that he had been scared, made her bite on her bottom lip. As David finished, he kissed her gently, which made Stacey kiss him back, placing a hand on his face.
Once they parted, Stacey looked at him with tears in her eyes. "Hey... I am not going anywhere. You won't lose me at all." She sniffed back a few tears, but one fell down her cheek. Stacey shook her head a little. "Okay. Let's talk about something more happier, okay?" She gave him a small smile. "But first, maybe we could get the nurse to see if I can have some pain medication. My back is starting to hurt a little."
{ooc - not sure whether David's next post is the last, or maybe the next Stacey post - as I think that the thread is close to finishing.}

{ooc - well let's see what you think after David's post}
After David had sorted it that Stacey wouldn’t be alone during the night she thanked him and he just gave her a warm smile. As if he would leave her on her own, besides he only had an empty house to go back to anyway. “You’re welcome.” He replied, not that it needed saying, but whenever Stacey thanked him for anything, David always replied with telling her she was welcome. It was just common courtesy and manners.
After David had told Stacey what he was doing when he got the call but he had then gone on to say that he had been pretty scared and was just glad that she was alright adding that he didn’t know what he would do if he lost her. David had tried to keep his emotions in check, but his voice had cracked toward the end of his words and he saw Stacey bite on her bottom lip. He had then kissed her gently and Stacey returned it which made him smile a little. When they parted David saw the tears in Stacey’s eyes, which led to a single tear falling down from his right cheek. David wiped it away just as Stacey said she wasn’t going anywhere.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to upset you, I just...I worry about you but I know I’m not going to lose you.” Stacey then suggested they speak about something happier, David couldn’t argue with that as he nodded his head. “That sounds like a good idea.” Then Stacey added about asking the nurse for some pain medication because her back was beginning to get sore. Honestly if he got his hands on the person who did this to Stacey, not that he could do much, it wasn’t as if he had super powers or anything like that, but he would surely get the police onto them at least.
“I’ll talk to the nurse.” With that David went out to speak to the nurse. “Hi, Stacey’s getting a bit more uncomfortable, I don’t suppose you could give her something for the pain in her back please?” The nurse smiled at David, “I’ll just consult with the doctor and get back to you, it shouldn’t be a problem.” David smiled at the nurse, “Thank you.” He then went back in to sit down beside Stacey. “The nurse is just going to consult with the doctor, probably because you’re pregnant, but she says it shouldn’t be a problem.” David smiled at her, and then tried to think of something they could talk about which was happier. “So, have you thought some more about when you would like me to come and put together the cot and changing table for you?”
{ooc – I’m sure this thread was after their shopping trip lol}

Stacey knew what David meant, and she sniffed again. "I know you worry about me. Maybe you worry about me for the both of us." She laughed a little, then suggested to talk about something more happier. Stacey gave him a smile, when he said that it was a good idea. She hated thinking about the bad stuff, especially after all the progress that David had made with her, before they got together. But now this new incident would stay with her for a while, and would stop her from doing things for a while.
She then spoke about asking about medication for the pain, and David went to speak with a nurse. As David went to talk to the nurse, Stacey felt so uncomfortable. It was bad enough with her growing stomache, let alone now having a sore back. But the hospital bed wasn't that bad, so she would have to live with the pain for a while. David came back then, to say that the nurse was going to consult with the doctor about the pain medication. Stacey nodded, "Okay." She then got comfortable, as much as she could, and smiled a little at what David said. "Why not when I get out of here. Or maybe it might be too soon. What about saturday." Yes, that was a better answer.
{ooc - thread finished?}
