AN: Use my friend's laptop again, my dad won't fix my computer. I wrote half of this on my blackberry.

I just wannna let you know I really do care for you

Holla at me anytime shorty I'll be there for you

He was surprised that she was still around the house. Everyday he was sure she was going to leave. And everyday he was grateful he paid the nurse to lie for him. The nurse had told her he wouldn't fully recover for a few weeks. She really hasn't said much to him, only if he need or wanted anything. He would mumbled "her" but she never heard him. John watched her most of the day, it felt weird having her close yet she didn't want anything to do with him. At night he would stay in their room and she would go to the guest room. Waking up his first thoughts were about her and he would smile but then he ruined his day at the thought of her leaving. He walked to the kitchen and over heard.

"Yea I know he hasn't shown any sign of sickness but-...okay fine...yea Jordan,

I'll leave by tomorrow if he's ok...bye." She hung up the phone and let a sigh out. She rubbed her hands over her face, she didn't know what to do. She really didn't want to leave him alone after the nurse saying he needed to be watched but staying with him hurt. She could feel his eyes on her through out the days but nothing was fixed between them and by the looks of it, it never would. She looked up and her brown eyes met his blue ones. The pain he felt just got worse, having her here he couldn't let her go. He had to think on his feet and he collapsed.

"John!" She yelled running to him. She lifted his head up to her lap and ran her fingers over his short hair. He groaned loudly making sure she would hear and slowly opened his eyes.

"Are you okay?" She whispered. He slowly nodded his head but make sounds effects making her get more worried. He grabbed one of her hand and pulled it on top of his heart.

"I really care for you a lot. I love you." He held tightly as she tried to pulled her hand.

"Whatever, let's get you up." She said trying to figure out how to stand him up with out hurting him. He groaned as she sat him, he held onto his stomach for dramatic affect. She put her hand on his shoulder.

"I…really do care for you too." She got up and walked to the living room. John jumped up after her and found her sitting in the couch watching television. He sat down next to her and just looked at her smiling. She hadn't said she forgave him but she did say she still cared for him. He knows he missed up in the past but all he needs is one more chance to make it all up.

I'm gonna do whatever it takes to make things right

Girl, even if it takes me my whole life

They spent about two hours just watching TV together, neither of them had said anything. She was the first one to get up, she said she was going to take a shower. As soon as he heard the door close he dialed. He was going to do whatever to make her stay with him in their house, until they had to go back to work of course. He called her favorite restaurant and ordered her favorite plate. Anything to please his favorite lady.

He set up the table, placing the plates right next to each other. He found candles and set them up. He was going to make her feel like if she ever feels like giving up, if it feels like to much, if she feels like she had enough to hold on to him. He'll promise to pull her up. Now he had to figure out how to make her sit and listen, he thought duct tape was a good idea. He would more than this to win her back because she was worth so much more.

He paid for the food and neatly placed it on the plates. He heard the water stop and he ran to the stairs to wait.

*_*_*_*_*_*

She walked down the steps in a tank top and yoga pants, she really did need to do the laundry. He was just looking at her as she walked down and she just looked at him wondering what he was doing. She raised her eyebrow when she saw him smile.

"Um I made dinner?" He said as she reached the last step.

"Thanks. Um, John you do realize it's two in the afternoon." She said walking into the kitchen. She walked ahead of him because she didn't want him to see the smile she had on. She let out a small gasp as she saw the table. Candles were lit and a bouquet of white and pink roses. She was stunned and didn't know what to do. She wouldn't let herself go through that pain again so she ran.

You got me feeling worthless, you know you my purpose

Give me one more chance ma you know I deserve it

He was smiling as she saw her shocked but it faded as she tried to run. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her into him. He hugged her tightly and lifted her chin up, tears were running down her face.

"I can't, we can't." She whispered, hurt all over her tone. His stomach tied into knots hearing those words. He shook his head and pressed her harder. They both know they're nothing without each other. He felt useless without her, his life had no value anymore. He was meant for her and she was meant for him and he dared anyone to say other wise. He turned her around making her look at the table.

"Pink roses because I adore you and white roses for a new beginning for us. And I'm not letting you leave this house until we're together again." He said in her ears. This was it, no more running away from things, he was going to make her love him again.

"John, let go now and I mean it." She said trying to make him let go. This wasn't the time for this she thought, he was still sick, he didn't know any better.

"No, I love you and you love me, now tell me why we can't be together again." He spun her around again. He walked toward the wall, she pressed in between so she couldn't get away.

"Because you screwed up." She looked him straight in the eye. "You know how I feel about that." Ever since she was a teenager she hated people who cheated with a passion. Her dad cheated on her mom and married the other woman, she learned to hate her dad for it. Hearing the pain in her mother's cries was forever in her memories, that's why cheating is such a big deal.

"And you know how sorry I am for that. I'll say I'm sorry a billion times and I'll prove to you how sorry I'm. The bond we share is too strong because we been together for too long." She let out a big sigh knowing he was sorry.

"I-"

"I'll do whatever it takes to be us right again." He kissed her forehead. She just looked at him because she knows he would. The man in front of her would go up against anything or anyone for her. And she loved him with all she had, he was her everything.

"I know." She said kissing his shoulder and wrapped her arms around him letting the tears fall. He put his chin on top of her head and cried. They held each other just letting the tears fall, it was the comfort they both need. He held her trying to made as much contact their bodies allowed. He continued kissing her temple as her body shook.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." He said kissing her cheek making her cry harder. She couldn't stop herself, all the pain inside her just came out in tears.

"I'm sorry too." She said getting on her toes to kiss his cheek. She was sorry for leaving him, for making them go through pain. Soon the tears both stopped and they just held each other for another half hour.

"Maybe we should eat before it gets colder." He mumbled getting her to smile. She gave him her first true smile in a while. Only he would say something like that in a moment like this. She nodded and they slowly let each other go.

He opened and closed her chair, he served her a drink and finally sat down. He pulled two roses out and placed it next to her. She deiced the white rose would symbolize for their new beginning together. Being without him hurt way to much and he deserved a second chance. They were each other's heart and each other's soul.

"Thank you." She said after they had finish, eating was pretty silent. They were just enjoying each other's company. He had his hand over hers and it stayed there.

"It was nothing." He kissed her cheek.

"Not yet." She said pulling away as he tried to kiss her lips.

"Fair enough." He said standing her up. They walked to the living room and just sat down.

"John, it's going to take a while for us to go back to the way we were." She said looking at him. He nodded his head and squeezed her hand.

"We're not going back, we'll just start over expect we'll just start by living together." She laughed at him.

"Deal."

*_*_*_*_*_*

I'm so sorry for all I've done

I just need one more chance

He kept his promise, after that night. He took her on a date every night where they just talked. The first date they pretend to get to know each other. He tried to remember everything about her just incase she changed her mind. He made her laugh anytime she could. It took her friends a while, meaning a month, to get use to them together. She really didn't care what they thought because she finally was happy again. Everyday he would mumbled "I love you" as they went to their separate rooms.

Today was the date he was pulling out all his tricks. He planned dinner by the lake and a carriage ride around town. Tonight was the date where he finally gets to kiss her after months. Tonight was the date where she would be his again.

"John?" She said walking down the halls with her ring gear on.

"Yea?" He wrapped his arms around her pulling her into a hug.

"Good luck tonight." She hugged him.

"Thank you." He kissed her nose.

She went on her toes and gently pressed her lips against his.

"You didn't let us slip away." She said smiling as she walked back to her locker room.

Ending kinda sucks because well I'm a sucker for happy endings.
