Chapter Three
Suze pov
Voices...they sound fimilar...who are they...why won't they let me sleep.
"Susannah!"
Leave me alone...black...sleep.
"Susannah please. Wake up."
The voice owner was shaking me.
More voices...I am being lifted...someone holds my hand...I'm dying. No! I don't want to die. I still had to tell him...I love him. For now...just sleep.
Light. Voices. My hand is stiff but I feel another in mine. I open my eyes a crack. I saw Jesse holding tightly to my hand. I tried to squeeze it but my fingers barely moved. Jesse looked up, startled. He looked at my eyes which had opened alittle more. The worry in his eyes vanished and he smiled.
"Susannah, I thought," Jesse paused swallowing,"I thought you where gone. I couldn't... I couldn't stop loving you."
"You still love me?"
"Of cource."
"What about her?"
Jesse hung his head. "Susannah, I never liked or loved her. She kissed me."

I proceeded to tell her everything from the past five years. How I felt when I read the letters, everything. I looked in her deep green eyes and saw tears. I wiped her tears away.
"Susannah, don't cry. It pains me to know I hurt you."
"Jesse I didn't send any letters."
My jaw dropped and I quickly closed it. "I...I thought you never wanted to see me again."
She shook her head. "No. I kept waiting. I knew you would come find me, and you did."
I pulled her close. Never again will she slip through my arms.

I woke up still in the hospital but in Jesse's arms. He was sleeping, so I didn't disturb him. When he wakes up I'll tell him. Tell him how much I love him.
Movement brought me from my thoughts.
"Susannah..."Jesse mummbled
"Yeah Jesse?" I whispered.
His lips covered mine. When we pulled apart for air I told him exactly how much I love him and always will
short but sweet right?
