"So..." I said, "What happened?" I asked. Kyoya looked up from the rose he was picking apart. "Why didn't I die?"

"The doctors never told you..." he said, "but there was a cure." he stood and sat on the bed next to me."They knew that your parents would never be able to pay for the surgery, so they didn't give you the false hope."

"Then who paid for it?" I asked.

"It was mostly..." he said, "It was your parents."

"But-"

"Your blood parents." he added before I could object.

"But they... they didn't want me..." I said, knotting the sheets between my hands.

"A few months after you were gone they regretted it sorely." Kyoya said, "but they were too far into it to back out." Kyoya pulled the tight sheets out of my hands, brushing his thumb over my palm. "When the Twins told them about you, they were just too scared."

"Scared of what?" I asked.

"You hating them for their mistake." I was silent, would I have hated them? I remembered the thoughts I had had, all the times I wondered if they even remembered me, I realized that I probably would've lashed out. I would've blamed them. "Well, come on." Kyoya said, "It's time we got you out of here." I looked up, and smiled. Even though I would have to be in a wheelchair for a few weeks, that was much preferred to being in the hospitable.

I pulled my legs out from under the sheets, a nurse had helped me change before Kyoya came. I was now wearing a big T-shirt and some sweatpants. Kyoya pulled over the wheelchair that had been prepared, and helped me into it. I grabbed my small duffel-bag of belongings, and wheeled myself across the floor and towards the door.

"I'll push." Kyoya said, "You need to rest." he grabbed the handles of the wheelchair and pushed me down the hall and out of the hospitable. He then pushed me across the street and we walked past a flower garden that bordered a cemetery.

I wondered what I would do now. I had only planned my life to this point, to the time I died. Now I was faced with a whole life ahead. A whole life.

I had my friends, my family, Kyoya. I had everything I needed. No more counting days, no more pain, no more fear.

Cause I'm alive.
