Okay here we go. I think I've decided on my ending, and there may possibly be a sequel to this.

Jean looked up at him as if to say 'What?'. She seemed to have been growing weaker.

"Will..will you marry me?" Scott asked quietly as he held her. Jean's emerald eyes widened. Either she was too weak to talk anymore, or just in too much shock.

"Scott.." she started quietly. "I'm not going to make i-"

"Jean, just listen to me for a second, please. I love you so much, more than anything in the world. I had everything planned out for the past month, I was just waiting for the perfect moment..but now I realized..maybe this is the perfect moment."

"You know my answer is yes...but Scott..I'm not going to live past tonight.." her voice trailed off.

"I have faith in you, Jean." Scott said as he took the diamond engagement ring out of his pocket and slipped it onto Jean's finger. Jean gazed at it for a few moments. For those few seconds, everything was fine. She wasn't hurt, and she definately wasn't dying. But everything slowly began coming back to reality as she fell out of the daydream. She looked up at Scott again, tears sparkling in her eyes.

"I'll try my best." Jean said as she lay her head against his chest. Scott held her as close as he could, never wanting to let her go. "But if I don't make it...I need you to find somebody else."

"What..? No. I could never love anyone like I love you. I could never look at anyone the way I look at you. I couldn't have feelings for anyone else but you, Jean. I would do anything for you, but please..don't ask me to do that."

"I don't want you to be alone..you don't deserve that." Jean said quietly. She couldn't let him know how much it was breaking her heart to even think about that, but at the same time, it wouldn't be fair.

"I much rather be alone than be with anyone but you."

"Scott!!" Jean called out suddenly, and weakly. Her chest had seemingly tightened up, and it was getting harder and harder for breath to come..

Oh dear I am so evil. This turned out kinda short again, but oh well, I liked the little conversation they had and didn't want it to go on any more. Fourth (and maybe final?) chapter will be up as soon as I get my lazy mind working.
