Tristan's eyes fell on the blonde as she jumped on top of him, her cheeks now tinting a soft pink. He smiled a little as she tilted her head to the side, running her eyes over his face, probably trying to guess his age, like he did with her. The blonde walked over and kissed her daughter's head. “Johanna, take Katrina inside for me?” she asked the babysitter. Nodding, she put an arm around Katrina's shoulders, leading her inside. The blonde turned to Tristan again, running her fingers through his thick locks. She gave him a sheepish smile. “Rylinn.” » She spoke, her voice calmer now. He raised an eyebrow and she smiled a little. “Rylinn. My name is Rylinn Westmens. » she replied, repeating herself. Tristan nodded and shook her hand, admiring her clean look. A black pencil skirt, a white button-down shirt tucked into the skirt and heels to bring it all together. He swallowed, trying to clear the lump in his throat.

Two bloody, compressed wounds looked back at him. A pair of green eyes opened and Tristan froze, his heart feeling like it was about to stop. “Rylinn?” His eyes found his before he heard the alarm on his monitor go off, beeping like crazy. "Tristan? Tristan!" a nurse shouted. Someone nudged him. Tristan! Focus!" a redheaded nurse shouted at him. His eyes found the monitors and widened. "She's coding! Give me a crash cart!" he shouted.
