Mag-log inNova walked into Claire's room with a big teddy bear and flowers. Ace and Claire were kissing like two teenagers in love."Eww! Gross. Get a room." Becket laughed teasingly."We did, asshole. You're in it. Don't you know how to knock?”"It's a hospital, dude. Put little Ace away and give her a few days to rest before you try to hump her.”Claire kissed Ace once more. "I don't mind. His kisses are like breathing. I can't live without either one." Claire watched as Nova stood quietly in the doorway. "It's okay, Nova. You can come in. I could u
The next day, Claire was scheduled to be taken off the machines. Nova sat down next to her and started brushing her hair and singing to her. Ace was sitting by her bedside holding her hand as he always did.As Ace leaned in to kiss her lips, a tear trickled down Claire's cheek.Becket stopped Nova from brushing. "Babe? Is she crying?”Nova looked up and saw Claire's eyes move under her eyelids. "Get the doctor!”Ace sat up looking her over. "Claire? Baby? Wake up. Please wake up?”Becket rushed out calling for someone to come to the room. A n
Sitting in the waiting room was grueling. Nova kept shifting in her seat trying to get comfortable. Nothing worked because thinking about Claire, who was now in emergency surgery, was weighing heavy on her mind.Nova jumped up from her seat. "I have to take a walk.

Dad and Becket convinced me to come to you. I need your help. I don't know what to do and I'm scared that Liam will try to hurt me and everyone I know.”Nova continued to tell him everything. When she went to her father it was mostly tears and emotions. Eric ensured her she was not to blame. She was the victim.

It was obvious to everyone around them the bond between them was strong, regardless of the paparazzi hounding the,. Becket wasn't used to so much media attention, but he wasn't bothered by it. He figured the only thing that mattered was that they were getting more romantically involved and she was nothing like the media made her out to be. On the show and privately. He was starting to see the happy-go-lucky girl she once was.One night, Becket and Ace had taken Nova and Claire out for dinner on a double date.
