I watched as Ward was put into handcuffs.

He broke down crying, trying to apologize to me and to Willow and even to Jax.

Jax stood in front of Willow and I to protect us.

Willow and I hugged and cried.

Then we were all separated to talk about what had happened.

Everyone gave their side of the story.

It was suggested to get checked out at the hospital.

Jax went with me.

The entire freaking hockey team showed up to the hospital too.

Mac with Violet.

Villi.

Gabriel and Ruby.

Knox was there too.

Vera showed up a little later.

Everyone there… and there was nothing wrong with me.

I was fine. Just shaken up.

Now before anyone thinks anything about me or whatever, it’s three in the morning right now, okay? It’s a week since everything happened.

I can’t sleep.

I probably need therapy or something after what happened.

Okay, I definitely need therapy after what happened.

I’m stubborn. I’ll handle this my own way.

Which is waking up in the middle of the night, thinking it all over, and then curling up next to Jax’s warm body. I love when he puts his arm around me and pulls me close, especially when he does so without waking up.

We’ve been inseparable since it all happened.

There’s a hockey game tomorrow.

He’s going to have to peel himself away from me.

I’ll be there in the stands though.

With Violet and Ruby.

I’ll cheer him on and fall in love with him just a little bit more.

Our entire relationship is messy and crazy but that’s fine. Maybe I don’t need some romantic love story, you know? Or maybe this is my version of it and I’m okay with that.

Look, I’m not giving up on med school.
