This was probably bigger than any other news I had ever received in my life, including the time I was told I was a wizard. I really hadn't been expecting this at all. Never in a million years would I have guessed that Alice and Junior would some day fall in love.
"Are you mad?" Junior inquired
"Mad?" I asked confused, he was probably thinking that I would be mad that after I fell in a coma he started dating my best friend. He would be thinking along the same lines as me if I was some selfish wannabe Britney Spears bitch. But since I'm not then I'm not mad.
"Yeah, are you mad at us?" Alice asked shyly, she was probably be the one to lose the most from this.
"No...can I still keep the ring though? I really liked it." I asked Junior as I looked down at the ring on my left hand. Both he and Alice cracked up, I looked up and saw Junior nod. I smiled and switched the ring to my middle finger.
"Congrats you two, I'm glad you've both found someone to love." I hugged them both as Jacob walked into the room with the doctor. As I let them go, they turned around to see the doctor. They nodded to me and stepped out of my room, Jacob on the other hand stayed in the corner watching as the doctor inspected me.
"Alright, your looking good. I think that you'll be released by tomorrow." The doctor said as he exited my room.
I followed him and locked the door, being careful to cover my ass.
"Here's your clothes." I nodded as he tossed them to me, and I walked into the bathroom that was in my room. As I took me robe off, I looked at my body. It didn't look like it was in an accident which made me glad, and I didn't ache as I slipped on my pants after my panties. I clipped on my bra and slipped into my t-shirt, he hadn't brought me shoes but I didn't mind. I looked into the mirror on the wall, my hair was tangled but not badly. I took a guess and decided Alice must have brushed my hair out for me. I internally thanked her, she might have known this moment would come. She even left me the brush on the sink, she was a genius when it came to love.
When I was done brushing my hair out, it looked way better. I smiled but then my smile faded just as quick as it had come. As soon as I would walk out that door I would be facing my fear all over again. Rejection. I walked to the bathroom's door, the door knob seemed to be able to electrocute me but I knew it was just my imagination. I turned the knob and I walked out to find Jacob sitting on the edge of my bed.
He looked over at me but not necessarily at me, he was looking at my ring. I could feel the tension in the air, I could feel it swallowing us up. Jacob broke the tension before I could and spoke up.
"Do you love me, the way I love you?" His words filled me with relief. Relief. I didn't have to suffer through his rejection. He loved me, but not like the way I thought he love me. I thought I was like a little sister to him but I wasn't. I wasn't a little girl, I was (oh how fucking cliché I sound but its true) a woman in his eyes.
I didn't answer him, I just approached him. I got so close, our foreheads touched. Our breathes mingled with each other, so close to his lips. So close.
"Kiss me." I whispered, sometimes I felt like my world was full of cliché, but it was all true. Sappy but true. I first saw a small smile, then I saw nothing but I felt everything. His mouth on mine, his hands on me, my hands on him. Our bodies pressing so closely together you would have thought it was impossible. Finally I felt my world was at peace, in his arms nothing mattered. Nothing but us. I felt so... I'm not sure how to describe how I felt at being able to say there was a us between me and Jacob. Us, it had a nice ring to it didn't it?
Yes boys and girls this is the end to a tragic love story that surpassed everything that was thrown on its path. Im glad to say that this is the first story I have ever been able to finish and that I have received positive reviews from. Thank you so much but dont worry I still have the epilogue to go! This is how it ended but your still going to see a glimpse on how their lives continued after this. I wonder how I'll finish it! Any suggestions??
