44. Making Someone Who Look Sad Smile
"Hey, you okay?" Lucas asked as he joined her where she was standing and kissed the side of her head softly. She looked up at him, that sad look he saw often when they came there in her eyes, and nodded slightly.
"Yeah, I'm fine." She said anyways, but couldn't match the soft smile he was wearing. She looked back down to her mother's grave and felt another tug at her heartstrings. She was pregnant again, for the third time now, and she had come to the cemetery to tell her mom. Just like the other two times, there was nothing she wished for more than actually having her mom next to her when she told her. To have her mom by her side through the whole of her pregnancies. "It's just, you know..."
"I know." He nodded. He pulled her closer and smiled yet again. "I know it hurts not having your mom here, but she'll always be with you, you know. She'll only be gone when you let her be." Peyton nodded again, a hint of a smile around her lips and it only took his next words to get that smile to fully break through. "We better get going now, the girls are waiting for us."
Of course it hurt that her mom wasn't there anymore, but her daughters were. Her amazing husband was. She knew that as long as she had them, she'd be perfectly fine.
"Yeah, let's go." She said, but didn't immediately started walking. "I love you, Luke." She smiled as he wrapped his arm around her, again pulling her closer to him.
"I love you too."
