Chapter 26

Randy found himself reading the note over again; by putting everything in the past; does she mean getting back together? He thought to himself.

A voice interrupted his thoughts, "So how is she doing?" The familiar voice asked.

"She's doing better, she just really needs her rest." Randy answered.

Dave nodded his head in agreement, "I'm glad she's doing better…does she know…"

"Yeah, the doctor explained everything to her…so now she just responds by writing things down on a piece of paper." Randy explained.

"Is that one?" Dave asked pointing to the paper in Randy's hand.

"Yeah, it's just a short note." He answered handing the note to him.

Dave smiled after reading it, "After all that's happened, she's still willing to forgive." He replied.

"Yeah, she's something else." Randy replied with a smile.

Dave noticed the look on Randy's face, "What's on your mind?"

"Hmm…I was just thinking about something."

"Tell me." Dave responded.

Randy went to open his mouth but was interrupted by a familiar voice.

"So is she o.k…everything is o.k. right?" The voice quickly asked.

They both looked up to see John standing there, "John." Randy quietly responded.

"So?" John asked again.

Dave got up and placed his hands on his shoulders, "She's doing fine…she's just resting right now."

John let out a sigh of relief, "Oh, thank god."

"You got here pretty quick." Dave replied.

"Yeah, I left right after I talked to you…thank god for planes." He lightly joked.

"What about your job?" Dave asked.

"Everything's good…they understood why I had to leave." He explained.

They both looked over at Randy who was sitting there quietly, "Thanks, man." John replied.

Randy looked up, "For what?" He asked confused.

"For watching over her…I know how much you care about her." John replied.

Randy put on a smile, "There's no need for thanks." He replied.

They all stood there in silence not knowing what to say to each other. Finally, one of the nurse's came over.

"If any of you want to sit in with her…you're more then welcome to." She suggested.

"John, you should go." Dave replied.

Randy nodded in agreement. Even though he wanted to be in there, he knew John wanted to be with her too.

John gave them both a look as if to say thank you. He followed the nurse as she led him to the room.

"I don't know if they told you but her lungs were punctured in the accident, so for the time being she won't be able to speak." The nurse explained.

"Oh gosh." Was all John could say.

The nurse gave him an assuring smile, "She just has to communicate by writing down her thoughts on a piece of paper."

John nodded his head, telling her he understood, "Thank you." He replied.

"Sure, you can go in now." She replied opening the door for him.

The nurse closed the door behind her, leaving John and Michelle in the room together. He walked over to her, laying a gentle kiss on her forehead. Taking a seat in the chair, he smiled as he saw sleeping peacefully.

"I'm sorry this happened to you…I wish I could've been here for you; I should've been here for you." He quietly spoke.

Michelle fluttered her eyes open, as to her surprise she saw John sitting there. She went to talk but remembered that she couldn't do so. She ran her hand softly through his hair, to get his attention.

"I'm sorry did I wake you." He quickly apologized.

Michelle just smiled and shook her head. She grabbed the pencil and paper, to write something. She handed the paper to John after she finished writing.

I' am so happy to see you. I missed you so much. And I hope I didn't ruin anything going on with your movie, I know how important it is to you. Anyways, I'm glad you're here, I feel a lot better.

John took her hand in his, "Don't dare think like that, you're more important then any job that I have…you know that." He replied.

Michelle smiled as tears started to form. John smiled at her as he gently wiped the tears away.

"Michelle, can I ask you something?" John asked quietly.

Michelle responded by nodding her head, curious to know what the question was.

"Ever since, I've had time to myself…I've been able to do a lot of thinking…" He began to explain.

Michelle gave him a look for him to continue, so he did.

"And what's recently happened has made this question even more apparent…" He continued.

Michelle now more curious then ever just wanted him to continue on with the question.

John took a deep sigh before standing up, "What I want to ask you is…"

Michelle's heart started to race with anticipation. All of a sudden she saw John get down on one knee. He reached in his pocket pulling out a small box, opening it to expose the most exquisite diamond ring.

He smiled and took her left hand in his, "Michelle, will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?" He asked as he held the ring in his hand.

Michelle's response to the question was…


You all know I had to leave it there! What will her response be? Do you think she'll say yes...or no? Well, I guess we'll have to wait...
