Ch. 26 Afterwards
I was pretty sure I was dead. I had such pain in my stomach, that it was impossible to be alive. I opened my eyes. I was in a hospital room. Just then a nurse came in.
"Good Morning Gabby" A nurse said.
"What happened?" I asked her.
"You were shot in the back dear" The nurse said.
"Were are all my friends?" I asked.
"They are in the waiting room." The nurse said. She went and got them. they all were here. There was a new face. Noah introduced me to Matt Parkman.
"What happened after I was shot?" I asked them.
"Sylar went nuts, he went after Arthur. He killed Arthur." Noah explained.
"Who shot me?" I asked.
"Arthur." Peter said.
"What happened to Jade" I said. Elle begged me to be careful not to pull the stitches.
"She left. There was no sign of her." Peter said.
"We made sure Arthur was died this time" said Matt Parkman. He must have read my mind.
"I found out something really interesting" Erin said.
"What's that" I asked her.
"Jade was actual planning on making me apart of Arthur's army, that's why I was in the ally. She got scared and ran off." Erin said.
"Jade has had people following and messing with you guys for months" Henry said.
"She also was the one making you sleep walk." Elle said.
"You don't even want to know what she was doing with the people in that building" Noah said.
"How did Arthur live?" I asked.
"Well apparently Jade knows how to use my ability to her advantage" Matt said.
"Apparently they were working on a formula with Jade's blood. Unfortunately their first patient was Angela" Noah said.
"You mean Jade didn't touch Angela like she did Erin" I said.
"Yes" Noah said.
"Gabby, do you know a Daniel Tyler?" Henry said. I nodded
"Well apparently they thought he had the ability" Henry said. That made sense. Daniel's behavior back then now made sense. The reason that Jade worked with Arthur also made sense. She was worried she would be killed. Typical Jade, always saving her own skinny ass.
"Where's Sylar?" I said. Matt went out of the room. I heard him say "She is waiting for you"
Everyone left the room. I still didn't know what to say to him. The last thing I said to him still embarrassed me. Then he sat down by me.
"Hey Gabby" Sylar said.
"Hey Gabriel" I said.
"I thought for a second I lost you" Sylar said.
"I thought the same thing" I said. I then asked him how he know remembers everything.
"Parkman said Jade must have done a number on me" Sylar said.
"I am so relieved your ok." I told him.
"I'm so relieved your ok" Sylar said. I asked him if he remembers how he was captured. He said he remembers that and more.
"Did you mean what you said" Sylar said.
"What are you...?" I began.
"When you said you love me" Sylar said. I could tell he was walking on eggs shells.
"Yes I did" I said
"Tell me again." Sylar said.
"Why?" I said
"Cause I want to get it on tape" Sylar said sarcastically.
"Fine! Sylar I love you" I said. He kissed me.
"Promise you won't ever leave me again." I said
"I promise" Sylar said kissing me again. I could get use to this.
THREE MONTHS LATER
"Come on Gabriel were going to be late!" I said putting on my earrings
"You look beautiful Babe" Sylar said in the door way. I thanked him for the compliment
"Why are we rushing?" Sylar asked.
"Well I'm a bride's maid and I got a text from Erin that Elle was freaking out" I said.
"Why is Elle freaking out, She's only marring Mohinder." Sylar said. I laughed.
"Be Nice today" I said pretending to be stern. Sylar just smirked at me.
The ceremony was beautiful. I never was at a traditional Indian wedding before. Everyone was there. Everything got better after I got out of the hospital. Mohinder and Elle moved in together. Erin and I still lived together. Sylar was trying to talk me into moving in with him, but with out success. He did spend nights at our apartment. The reception started at seven. Elle looked beautiful. She looked so happy.
"Hey Gabby. Can we talk?" Sylar said after the wedding was over.
"Why?" I asked him.
"You know I love you right?" Sylar said.
"Yeah I know. I love you to.' I responded. Was this going were I thought it was going? He got down on one knee. I can't believe this was happening.
"Gabrielle will you marry me" Sylar said holding out the most beautiful ring I ever saw.
"Sy We cant, not right now" I said stuttering. I was trying not to cry. This was possibly the most exciting moment of my life.
"Why not?" He asked shocked.
"I would love to marry you but it's too soon." I said.
"So you want to wait" He said.
"Yes, I promise if you give me more time, the next time you ask I'm going to say yes" I said.
"Fine, I have the time" Sylar said bringing me closer.
"Are you still going to Mexico this summer?" I asked him.
"Yes, but I was hoping you would come with me." He asked me.
"You want me to come with?" I asked him. He nodded.
"It sounds like fun, sure. " I said. It been boring since Elle and Mohinder left for India last night.
"Looks like its just Peter and Erin this summer" Sylar said
"I love you Brainman" I said kissing Sylar. He was shocked; usually it's him bringing me in for a kiss. He obviously didn't mind.
No matter where the road leads us, it would be together. For the first time in my over 200 years I had something to look forward to. I kept on the look for Jade. I knew that she had to be stopped in order for me to finally be safe. I decided right then looking at Sylar, that I was going to make not only somebody else happy but also find away to make myself happy.
