"Michael is an amazing man, and I am glad he is the one your heart chose. Even though I wasn't willing to see it at first, I can't think of anyone else to trust you with." He grins at me.
"So, does that mean you'll accept me to be with him?" I can’t stop smiling.
John nods with a smile, "Yes, Serena. I don't want to stand in the way of your happiness. You love him; he loves you. What's not to accept?"
I reach out and give John a big hug. It brings me so much joy that the two men I love aren't fighting anymore, and I don't have to choose between them. I can have them both on my side.
"Thank you," I sob in his arms.
John lets me go after a while, planting a kiss on my forehead. I turn to Michael, who takes my hands and gives me a hand kiss.
"I love you," Michael whispers.
"I love you, too," I say, pulling him in for a soft kiss.
I flip the page of the book I am reading, snuggling under the covers. I have decided to make myself comfortable since I am still under the doctor’s care in the hospital. I look up from the book when the door swings open, revealing Cassie's slim figure. She's carrying a giant teddy bear in her arms alongside her bag.
My face brightens immediately.
"Hey!" I chirp, and she rushes towards me. She crouches to my level and pulls me into a tight hug.
"I will start thinking something is wrong if you don't start hugging me back." She says, and I groan.
"I can’t breathe. You’re holding me so tightly." I mumble, and she chuckles, freeing me from her grip. She sits beside me on the bed, tucking my hair behind my ear.
"I missed you so much." She says softly.
"I am so glad you’re getting better." She pulls me in for a hug again, pressing a kiss on my hair. I’m tearing up a bit as I allow her a soft embrace.
"I missed you too, Cassie," I murmur.
After holding each other for a while, we let go of our hug and step back a little to look at each other.
"You didn't have to fly back just for me, you know," I say.
"Nonsense," She dismisses me with a wave of her hand. "My best friend got into a car accident. I came here as fast as I could,"
We smile. Who am I kidding? Cassie would fly back just for me, even if I told her not to.
"Here, I got you this." She grins at me, handing me the teddy bear.
"It's cute. I love it." I squeal, putting the teddy bear aside. I give her a quick hug, and she chuckles.
"How are you feeling now?" She asks me.
"I feel much better than I did yesterday."
"I am sorry I couldn't make it here on time. I am so__" I cut Cassie off.
"There's no need to apologize, Cassie. You are here now, and that's all that matters. You don't have to blame yourself for anything. I love you, and I am glad you are here now." I place my hand on hers, squeezing it softly.
She nods with a sigh, then her facial expression soon brightens.
"What about Michael?"
"He stepped out not so long ago. He'll be back any moment now." I answer her. I sit up, grinning from ear to ear, and it piques her curiosity.
"Michael and I can finally be together. John gave us his approval. I am so glad." I ramble at her, and her eyes widen.
