Splendour Mine

A/N:

In this story the character names belong to Stephenie Meyer but the chapter titles come from William Shakespeare's epic tale, Romeo & Juliet. The slash is all my idea.

Chapter 180. Happiness counts thee in her best array.

-Jasper-

I had no idea what woke me, but I came to with a start, and groaned as my cramped muscles seized with the sudden movement after being confined in the chair for so long. I stretched, as best I could with one hand still enclosing Garrett's, and jumped when I felt pressure against my fingers.

I looked over at Garrett, and was surprised to see him awake and watching me with an attempt at a smile on his lips, his eyes dark and a little unfocused, obviously still under the influence of painkillers.

"Love you," I whispered and kissed him.

End Note:

He's awake...sigh!
