He was sitting on the porch when he saw her limping down the street, he stood up, he wanted to run up to her. She looked at him and nodded her head, he was there in a few seconds he picked her up and brought her to there room. "It just started hurting, I'm sorry," she signed. He got her pain medicine out of his bag, " thank you"." I'm tired what time are we going out to eat ?" she signed. " Sweetie we don't have to go anywhere , just sleep, and when you wake up we can decide, " he signed. She waked to the bathroom and took her clothes off and put her robe on, she walked out, he looked like his heart was breaking. She got into bed, and patted the next to her, he got in and put his arms around her, she fell asleep.
About an hour later she woke up, he was sitting in a chair on the side of the bed. "I love you so much," he signed. She smiled and sat up "question, how long were you sitting there," she signed.
He put his head down, "you don't want to know, but I did not follow you, so I do get credit for that right" he signed.
She just shook her head, " Garrett, stop treating me like I'm a little girl," she had tears in her eyes. He grabbed his phone, and showed her the picture of her when she was on the ventilator, and unconscious. " I'm so glad I took this picture, you need to see what I went through, for a day and a half, I did not know if I would ever see that smile again or be able to hold you," he signed.
She got out of bed and crawled onto his lap, "the Dr told me that if I had left the coffee shop, was driving to go home when it hit me I probably would not have made it" she looked at him " so thank you for being mad at me, not letting me explain, and walking out" she signed.
He felt so good at that moment, he picked her up and put her back on the bed. " I was going to wait till tonight to do this" he got down on one knee , " please be my wife" .She held out her left hand, he put the ring on her, she pulled him up to the bed and started kissing him. He stopped her, "Bay please stop, I don't have much self control with you."
"What time are we going out to eat?" she got off of the bed and opened her robe , "I could be ready for seven?" He was just looking at her with his mouth open, he was so hard already, "I think seven would be fine." she took off the robe and threw it at him.
