This chapter's very OOC, but I like it somehow….
The doctors said that he wouldn't be the same, but Mel hadn't expected this. The quiet, subdued man that had opened his eyes that Christmas day was a mere shell of the fire that used to burn brightly. He sat up on Christmas day and simply smiled. It was that same smile but there was something different, something missing. She assumed it would appear sometime, that sparkle, but until then she had to make do.

Tim was the first to read that email, having his laptop in the car already. He looked at Mel and showed her. Their shared a look which seemed to make Jake laugh and Jules giggle.
"What?" Tim asked them both accusingly. Jules simply looked at him knowingly. Tim stood up and walked out into the corridor taking Mel with him.
"Catherine doesn't speak evil," he told her, "but she thinks it."
Mel smiled, "the effect of education I suppose," Tim laughed, oh how she loved to make him laugh. There was a beeping noise as his phone told him that he had a call, upon seeing the caller ID -Cathy- he quickly turned off the phone and turned to Mel.
"Mel, I have…I have….I-have-loved-you-my-entire-life-"
Mel looked at him oddly, "I know Tim," she said kindly.
"No... I've loved you as a man loves a woman. As a hero loves a heroine. As I have never loved anyone."
"For crying out loud!" Jake cried out, "Kiss her would you!" Mel saw that smile that she had missed playing on his face as Tim, for once, listened to his older brother.

Mariah was married the next Saturday. In all important preparations of mind she was complete, being prepared for matrimony by a hatred of home, by the misery of disappointed affection, and contempt of the man she was to marry. The bride was elegantly dressed and the two bridesmaids were duly inferior. Her mother stood with salts, expecting to be agitated, and her aunt tried to cry. Marriage is indeed a manoeuvring business. Jules and Mel's sister Anna become the best of friend as they both gained confidence and boyfriends cause both Mel and Tim to worry almost weekly. Jake was fine, if a little bit more stable, last Mel and Tim heard he was on his way to Vegas to marry Holly…
It could have turned out differently, Mel supposed. But it didn't.
