I am so terribly sorry for uploading so late, but I was on vacation. I also had to write this twice because my other computer broke down. Please forgive me for being this late :(

The Beginning

He didn't even realize he was walking –or actually running- to the hospital until he felt his back ache. These past few nights he had been sleeping in the couch and he really was developing a problem.

He got on the bus and kept tapping his foot on the bus floor. The rest off the passengers kept staring at him. But he couldn't care less. All that mattered was his decision towards Penelope. He needed to let her know.

The moment he stepped into the hospital he begun feeling bad. What if she and the doctor were an item? He was screwed for good then. But he had to try anyway.

He found her alone in her room, but what he saw was quite unpleasant and upsetting. Penelope was shutting down all the pieces of machinery she was connected to and gathering the few belongings she had in that hospital room.

"Baby girl-" She refused to turn around to look. She hated this. He was making her feel like shit and she couldn't have that.

He approached her and put his arms around her waist, hugging her from behind. She let out a weep and started crying loudly. She turned around and he put his arms around her again. He rested his head on her head. She smelled wonderful.

"Why am I so in love with you?" she breathed in his chest. He lifted his head and looked in her eyes, surprised. He then smiled, and the smile turned into a laugh. She laughed along. He then got serious and looked into her eyes again. He leaned in and felt her catch her breath. She closed her eyes and leaned forward. And then it happened. Magic.
