Well, chapter 10 is finally here. I really feel there's still so much in this story I need to tell. And so I will try to describe my thoughts as best I can. Thank you for your support so far. Please tell me what you think. It's important. Your opinion counts. I hope you'll enjoy!

As we were ready to spend our first night as a couple in the annex, I was feeling weird. Nervous. I don't know why. I always feel so intimate around Will. I guess now that we said out aloud we are in a relationship, now that we showed to each other how much in love we are and we admitted out aloud our feelings, I want, we want this relationship to be great. Because our feelings are very strong and eternal.

As I prepared him and made him comfortable in bed I said:

"Okay Will, I'll see you in the morning love" and I kissed him gently.

"And where are you going Clark?"

"Well, at the room next to you"

"The guests' room?"

"Well, yeah I guess …."

"Oh, I see. Well, I was thinking maybe you could sleep in the main house with my parents and Georgina"

"You're mocking me"

"Of course I am Clark. Why on earth would you think to sleep in the quests' room?"

"Well, you've been through enough. We've been through enough and I thought you needed some time alone. To get some rest"

"Well, what I need and I want is to be with you Clark"

"Me too Will. Me too"

"Well come here then. Don't go. You're not a guest here Clark. This is your home too. Our home now because we are together. Always."

I was ready to shed tears and went close to him, kissed him and hugged him so tight.

"You're acting weird Louisa Clark"

"I am a little nervous Will"

"Around me? Well that's something bloody new"

"No. Not around you. It's just what you said. It's our home now. It's us. And that's what I'm nervous about. Us. I want us to be perfect because we deserve it Will. You deserve to be happy".

"I will be happy because of us. Of you. We'll be fine Clark" he kissed my forehead and then he started singing the Molahonkey song and I looked into his eyes and said:

"Will, what would have I done without you?"

"Well, you won't be able to find that out any time soon because I plan to be around for a really long time Clark, even if there will be difficult days for my health, I'm not going anywhere."

"Good" I said

"Because I love you Will"

"Well, I kind of like you too Clark" he said to me playfully and then he looked into my eyes and said:

"I love you too Clark"

We didn't sleep much. We spend almost the entire night talking, laughing, planning and enjoying each other. And of course kissing. I love kissing that man. The next morning Georgina came by as we were having breakfast.

"Hey you two. Good morning"

"Morning Georgina. Come, sit with us"

"Yes, you should come and have a taste of Clark's perfect croissants sis"

"I wish I could. But I came here to say goodbye. For now. I was informed just yesterday late night that I am needed back in Australia earlier than I expected. And I don't want to go back. Not yet" Georgina said clearly looking at Will.

"Oh, do you have to go Georgina?"

"I'm afraid so Clark"

Will wasn't saying anything.

"Well what about you big bro? I think the cat must have eaten your tongue"

"Well, I guess I was expecting you to stay a while"

Georgina came close to him and kissed him on the cheek.

"Well, you won't get rid of me that easy big bro. I will be back soon. I promise. And who knows? Maybe for a really long time this time"

"What do you mean by that?"

"Yes, Georgina. What do you mean?" Will and I asked her both full of curiosity

"Well, Will, Lou, I think I can get transferred here. I'll just have to make some arrangements now that I'm getting back"

"Oh my God this would be great" I said as Will had an obvious big smile on his face.

"Well, I guess I'll see you soon then sis"

"You bet you will. Ok you two. Mom and dad are taking me to the airport. I just found a last minute flight. So I have to go. Love you both"

"We love you too Georgie" I said and Will said:"

"Well, we do but we'll love you more when you'll get back"

Georgina and I smiled and she hugged us both and left.

"Ok you I know you were disappointed but she's coming back"

"Yeah she is. But there's something else I need to talk to you about"

"What is it Will?"

"Well, I talked to Ritchie"

"Really? Oh God. I hadn't got the time to thank him and talk to him"

"Well, don't worry. I did and we had a conversation in that chat room you found him in the first place. He told me about it when we had that talk … in Switzerland. Anyway, I've asked him to meet us. We exchanged numbers as well and he'll be in contact soon"

"Great. That's just great Will. And now, what do you say boyfriend?" I said to him as I sat on his lap and placed my hands around his neck.

"I have something to ask you"

"Anything except horse racing Clark"

"You think you're funny huh?"

"Well, yes I am Clark. Ok what is it?"

"Well I talked to my parents on the phone earlier and I told them about us moving in. They were also very anxious to see you from the moment I told them you changed your mind. And I was thinking that maybe we can go today and take the rest of my stuff and take the chance and have lunch with them. They really want to see you. They love you Will"

"Oh God Clark. Your parents. I want to see them too. I love your parents Clark. Plus it would be great if Treena and Thomas were there. I'd really love to meet them finally"

"Well, it's weekend so they probably won't be at campus. They will be there. I want you to meet them too. They do too."

"Great. Today it is then."

"Ok I'll call my mom in a little bit to tell her we are going today. Will?"

"Yeah Clark?"

"We'll be fine. Because there's no other way"

"Do you remember what I said to you? You only get one life Clark"

"And it's actually our duty to live it as fully as possible Will"

"That's right. And that's what we're doing. Because a full life is a life with love and feelings like ours. And even if I hadn't changed my mind for Switzerland, if we only had six months together, then these six months would have stayed scored on our hearts and souls forever"

"Yes, but you did changed your mind"

"Yes and I am so glad I did. All I'm saying is that even if I hadn't changed my mind this wouldn't mean that our love isn't eternal. It wouldn't mean that I did it because our love wasn't strong. It's the strongest and above everything. Because the first day we met was when world stood still. And we won't be fine. We will be great Clark. Even if hard times will come for my health, we will get through them. Together"

"Yes. We will. And I'll be with you and next to you in every step of the way. I am so blessed I can look into your eyes. I know if you hadn't changed your mind that wouldn't mean that you didn't love me enough. I know. But it's so much better that you decided you want to live"

"Yes, it is Clark. I love you miss chatty girl of mine"

"Me too Will. I love you too my sarcastic boyfriend"

We kissed as we were messing around with our breakfast, laughing and acting as two happy people, so crazy in love. Because that's what we are indeed. Happy and in love. Always and deeply and truly. And in my mind and in my soul something came back. Something I had lost after that night in Mauritius when Will told me that he was going to Dignitas, came back to me. A word, a feeling. He is alive thank God. And from the moment he changed his mind the word that came back to my mind and the feeling that came back in my heart and soul is nothing else but this: HOPE!

We both regained our hope. Will Traynor and Louisa Clark. I will never get bored mixing our names together. Our names are connected as our hearts and souls will be connected forever. Our future just begins and I have nothing to be nervous anymore. Everything is going to be ok!
