Clare's POV.
I couldn't believe it... I just couldn't. I had Cancer and so here I was... Laying in a hospital bed wrapped in Eli's warm arms.
I remember the night I told him the news... He told me he was coming home, but even when I said not to... he did and man I was glad for that. Cause as I came to terms with everything, I realized I was much more scared than I had thought. Then Eli appeared... As I had the break down he walked into the room. Never had I been so happy to see him! So now here he was... Holding me.
Eli had only been here for five hours now, but it still felt as if he had just got here. I still so shocked that he had really come back home for me... I knew he loved me, but enough to ditch his summer job for his sick girlfriend with Cancer? That I didn't know... Until now of course. I was scared... So scared, but Eli made me feel safer. Being held by him knowing he'd protect me, love me, take care of me... All of that made me feel so lucky to have him.
My head rested on his chest as I snuggled into him. He had been holding me since my mom had gone home, and the doctors left for the day. I swear he could hold me for my whole life... Just laying there in his arms... Its like heaven and It was a place I hated to leave. But I had him to myself all night... All night to be together, all night to dream about our lives after this war was won... Yep Eli was here for me and he always would be.
I know we're gonna get through this together... Because with him by side I'll always be strong.
And so my eyes closed slowly as I began to fall asleep... Knowing everything would be okay... Cause it just had to... It just had to.
