A/N~ Hmmm....The last chapter....Please read and review!
Chapter Six
Garu was still floating in darkness.
His head was back, his back was arched, and his eyes were closed. His breathing was shallow. His heart beat slowly,
sluggishy.
It sounded like a drumbeat to him.
He couldn't think straight.
Couldn't think at all.
The last things he heard were the shouts of the others, although, to him, they were like whispers...
" Will he be alright, doctor?" My voice, sounding starnge even to my own ears.
It was like it was me, but it really wasn't me, who was saying and doing all these things.
I gazed mounfully at him.
During these many hours, I had yet to leave his side.
" Yes, Leena. He should be doing fine." Dr.Crowford reassured me. " You should get some rest yourself."
I shook my head fiercely. " No. I'm not leaving him!" The last words came out as a shout, which shocked her as much
as myself.
I didn't notice he was awake, not until his hand touched my arm.
Garu smiled at Leena's surprsed reaction. He loved surprising her.
In fact, he was starting to realize he loved a lot more about Leena than he had ever thought before...
" Oh my god..." I thought.
He smiled!
At me!
I hugged him as hard as I could, crying at the same time.
Garu nearly choked as Leena held him in a bone crushing hug.
" Hey...." Was all he could say, before Leena was shushing him and telling him he needed his strength.
" I have strength enough for this..." Garu murmered, pulling her down slightly to land a gentle kiss on her lips
before dropping back down.
He....
He really....
He really kissed me!
I can't even begin to think of how long I've been hoping for him to do that.
I love him.
I was tired again.
I struggled to get up, but Leena held me down.
Her expression was one of warmth and...love...
Yes, love.
There could be no mistake.
I love her too.
" Thank you, Ernest." I thought. " For everything."
Ernest sighed heavily.
He had completed his purpose.
He had made sure Garu would live a happy life, even if it was a lie, an illusion of sorts.
He had loved Garu enough to let him go.

this is one of the first fics I wrote...Just took me awhile to post it. Sorry!
