I just want to apologize for this taking so long. So, so sorry.

Chp. 6

"Mary I just finished talking to Sarah and David. They found a way we can go in together." Marshall Explained.

"What? Oh my god. That's so amazing. I am so happy. Wow. We get to be together," Mary said as a tear rolled down her cheek.

"I know, I feel the same way." Marshall replied. The happiness they felt clearly visible in their eyes. She gave Marshall a hug and let the tears flow. She was almost as shocked as he was when this happened. She rarely cried at all-- let alone in front of Marshall.

two days later

"Well Mary, it looks like you are good to go. I will go get your release papers," Olivia said as she walked in.

"It's about time I get out of this dump," Mary said with a huff.

"She means thanks," Marshall replied as he shook his head softly at her.

"That's okay. She has had a long three days. I will be right back with the papers." With that said, she left.

"Okay, you both have the rest of the day to pack up your stuff and say goodbyes," Sarah informed them.

Marshall sighed as he offered a smile to Mary.

The nurse entered again. "Okay, here you go. Oh and there is one thing. You will need to have someone with you at your house to help you for the day. Also remember no lifting or a lot of walking around. Have a good day." She walked out the door after giving a somewhat stern look. She hoped it would keep Mary from not following her directions.

"Marshall, I expect that you will be giving Mary a ride home?" Sarah asked.

"Yes I will," Marshall smiled.

"Okay, well I will ride right behind you to where ever you go in the next day to insure your safety," Sarah told them.

"Okay," Marshall replied, "Sounds good. Are you ready Mary?"

"Um, yep let's go." She looked at him with concern in her eyes. He decided to quiz her about it in the car."

20 minutes later

"Mary what is going on? What is upsetting you. And because I care about you so much I wont except nothing as an answer." He took his eyes off the road while saying this so she understood it's truth.

"I am worried about My mom and sister. What will they do after I leave? And who will clean up there messes?"

"Mary they need to learn how to take care of themselves. They can do it, but they just don't think they need to."

"I know, but I just… well I don't know."

"Everything will be fine."

"Do you promise?" Marshall pulled up to a stoplight so he turned to looked at her. He looked deep into her eyes.

"Yes, Mary I promise. Everything will be fine."

"I love you Marshall. I really do and I will try to be more open with you. I was just afraid that you wouldn't think I was strong if I told you about all the bad things in my life."

"You never need to think that is true. I will always love you. Not one person in this world is strong enough to keep everything in. everyone needs someone sometime, and when you need me I will be there for you. Nothing you can do will change that." Marshall gave her a quick hug before the light turned green.

"I know."

Sorry this took so long. Way toooo long. My beta stopped writing me back, but there was probably a good reason! Oh well. Thanks for what SystemsDrailed did help me with. I also want to thank my new beta, NsCvIuS‏I. I didn't get many ideas through R&Rs. It took awhile to figure out what to write. R&R… you know you want to and thanks to those who do.
