Kelsi Nelson woke up in her bed to the sound of gunshots. Pain rushed through her head and every bone in her body. She didn't remember how she got there. All she could remember was two names Jason and Kelly, but that was it. She didn't even know who they were. She didn't even know where she was.

"You're awake. That's great. Do you know who you are?" Kelsi looked at the doctor as he sat down next to her bed with a clip board in his hands.

"I'm Kelsi Nelson." The doctor smiled.

"How old are you, Kelsi Nelson?"

"I'm 18 years old." The doctor just smiled. He wrote a few things down then looked back up at Kelsi. Another gunshot rang out and the doctor looked out the window. His face paled as he ran out of the room. "What's going on?" Kelsi forced herself to sit up. Her head spun and pain shot through her body. She struggled out of bed to the window wincing in pain with every step. She looked out the window and saw two familiar men standing outside. Memories ran through her mind. She struggled out of her room.

"You must go back to your room, Kelsi!"

"No, I don't remember who he is, but I know he's my friend. It's right there in my mind, but I can't figure it out. That man that just shot my friend is the one who did this to me. I have to go down there and help him"

"How are you going to help him, Kelsi, if you can't even help yourself?" Those words stung as more memories of her enemy ran through her mind. She just kept walking down the hallway with pain in every step. She got to the elevator and another shot rang out. She quickened her pace. She didn't care about the pain she needed to help her friend. She looked down at her bruised only to find something she never expected. She looked at the most elegant diamond ring in the world.

"I assume you already found what was in the box. Could you hand it to me?" He sat up as I grabbed the box. "Kelsi Nelson, will you marry." Tears of joy flooded her eyes.

"Yes, yes Jason I will." She gently leaned over and kissed him. He kissed back and it lasted until both of them were lightheaded and out of breath. "I love you, Jason."

"I love you too, Kels."

Tear hit her fast and hard. She remembered everything now. Well mostly everything. There were a few things still forgotten.

Kelly stood breathless and Kelsi hobbled out of the elevator.

"Kelsi!" She looked up with tears in her eyes. Kelsi walked right past her and walked outside. Jason and Troy stood motionless as Chad stood up with the gun in his hand. He had blood pouring from his leg and arm.

"Chad!" All three of them turned and looked at her standing there. Jason ran up to her, but just stared. "Kelsi brushed past him and ran up to Chad who fell to the ground holding his arm. Kelsi winced as she bent over and helped him up. She glanced at the man who was breathing hard with his eyes closed. Troy and Jason helped Chad inside while Kelsi walked right behind him.

"I'll be right there." Kelsi picked up the gun and looked at it for a moment. "I have the right to do this you know that right." Kelsi looked at the man who now looked back at her. "Tell me why. Explain why you want me dead!"

"You're my daughter not that creep your mother married a month after she got pregnant with you. Yes your Mom made a mistake. She wouldn't let me see you. She didn't even tell you about me." Kelsi sat on the ground and looked at him.

"You're wrong. She told me everything about you. She told me how she loved you so much, but couldn't marry you, because you were 17 and she was 18. Her parents forced her to get married to that creep. She told me everything about you." He was now in tears.

"Kelsi, I'm sorry. I killed one of your friends and nearly killed you. I wouldn't blame you if you never forgave me."

"Dad, I forgive. I can't completely accept you yet but I forgive you and if you ask God he will to."

"How could God accept me again?" Kelsi sighed.

"Because he loves you. He really would accept you even after everything you've done. I'll pray with you." Kelsi prayed with her father and then closed her eyes in pain. It was all catching up with her.

"I'm sorry." Kelsi looked at her Dad. He was bleeding really bad now.

"I'm going to go get a doctor, don't move." He laughed.

"Don't worry I wont go anywhere." She smiled and walked back into the hospital. Chad sat in a chair on crutches. He didn't need a sling, only stitches in his arm. She sent a doctor and nurse outside they wheeled him in. Kelsi ran up to the bed and grabbed her father's hand before they rushed him to the back.

"I love you, Daddy, remember that." Kelsi backed away as she felt people's eyes digging into her back. Tears struck her eyes as she fell to the ground in pain. Jason ran up to her and helped her over to a chair. She had her eyes closed shut and her teeth were clenched tight.

"You need to get back to your room." Jason tried to help her up, but she didn't budge. She didn't have tears and she looked relaxed. Jason looked astonished. He looked at his beautiful fiancé just sit there. She had a smile on her face.

"Everything is perfect on the best Christmas Eve ever." Everyone smiled with all the worry they had forgotten about Christmas. Kelsi looked up at Jason. He had tears in his eyes. Kelsi's Mom had always had to work on Christmas and her step-dad just left them. She's never gotten a real Christmas gift, because something always went wrong with the family or she was away. Jason smiled as he kissed her.

"There is only one thing that could make tonight better."

"What's that?" Kelsi smiled.

"Do you want to get married tonight?" Kelsi's eyes widened in joy. She desperately wanted to be married right away. Kelsi wrapped her arms around Jason. The Chapel in the hospital was empty when they walked in. The priest had been expecting them. Jason had planned this. Kelsi didn't have a wedding dress.

Kelsi Nelson slowly walked down the aisle. Jason waited at the end smiling. Kelsi smiled. They said there vows and Kelsi had tears of joy running down her face.

"I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride." Jason took Kelsi in his arms and kissed her. Kelsi walked back to her room in the hospital. Her husband spent the rest of the night with her.

"We're married. Your Dad's been caught and now we can live happily." Kelsi smiled as he sat on the bed next to her.

"I love you my wife."

"I love you my husband."
