Here you go guys. Last chapter! Thanks for being here with me! I really appreciate it!


JJ hated not having things to do. She always liked being busy. Moving around. And, not having any movement was annoying to her. But right now, as she waited, the only thing she could do was wring her hands and tap her foot. The rhythmic up and down of her foot was forgotten by JJ but, the movement was calming for her.

JJ's tapping was annoying and bugging Will. Slowly he placed his hand atop of JJ's knee silently telling her to stop. "Sorry," JJ quietly said, " this whole thing is just nerve-racking. I mean, it's his first surgery, and hopefully last."

"It's alright. I understand. But he's going to be fine. It's a common procedure and it's normally done around his age. There's nothing to worry about."

Leaning into Will, letting her head rest on his shoulder JJ spoke, "How did I ever get the reward of deserving you?"

"You were you." Will said smiling.

Dr. Sehorn walked out then, his surgical cap in hand. "He's fine. Everything went well and as planned. You can see him in about an hour and a half."

JJ overcome with joy hugged him. Thanking him over and over again. Dr. Sehorn wasn't phased by this. A lot of patient's parent's were like this. The first surgery for the child was always the hardest on parents.

"I'll come get you when you can see him." Then the doctor walked off.

About an hour and a half later Dr. Sehorn walked out motioning for JJ and Will to follow him. Leading them to Henry's room where it looked like he was just waking up, JJ ran to his bedside. "Hey buddy. How are you feeling?"

"My throat hurts."

"I know son, it's okay it should." Will told him. Handing Henry some water and putting a straw in the glass, Henry then greedily drank it up.

"Mr. and Mrs. LaMontagne, may I speak with you please?"

Walking over to where Dr. Sehorn stood he told them that they could take Henry home in about two hours, and that he'd go get the discharge papers.

About an hour and a half later everything was signed and Henry was ready to go home. A home where for the next week he would only consume ice cream. And Henry, by far was perfectly happy and content to do just that!

Two days later, Will's arm was sore from scooping ice cream so much, but Henry was taking full advantage of this opportunity. "More, daddy! More!" He encouraged as Will scooped out some chocolate ice cream for breakfast.

"Oh no." Will said, chuckling.

JJ laughed as well. Henry was sure feeling better, and no matter how many times and how many different ways Will asked or bargained, JJ would not take the scooping job. She knew if she did, there was no way of getting out of it.
