I laid down next to Luis and pulled the piece of paper out of my pocket. "Izzy found this under your bed."

He hummed in confusion as he opened it. He read it and chuckled. "You read this?"

"Of course I did." I smiled.

He sighed. "It's so cringy."

I shook my head. "It's not, it's cute."

"I didn't mean for you to read it."

"Why not?" I rested my head on his chest.

"Because it's cringy." He laughed.

"It's not!" I whined. "It's cute and it makes me happy."

He smiled. "Seriously?"

"Yes," I nodded. "Why wouldn't you want me to read it? Is everything in there a lie?"

He shook his head. "Of course not. I just didn't know if you thought I meant it because I wrote this before I did, well, this."

"I knew you meant it." I nodded.

He smiled. "I'm glad."

"Have you seen Izzy at all?" I asked while tracing shapes on his chest.

He shook his head. "Nope, I miss her a lot though."

"She misses you too," I stated. "She begged to come with you when they took you to the hospital."

He sighed. "I feel so bad for putting her in that situation."

"Don't feel bad," I reassured. "She didn't understand what was happening anyway."

"That still doesn't make it good. I shouldn't have done it when I had to watch her."

"You shouldn't have done it at all," I stated.

He nodded. "Yeah, that sounds better."

I smiled and kissed his cheek. He sighed and pulled me closer to him. "What have you been up to since I've been here?"

I sighed. "Not much. I cried, slept, cried, and slept some more."

He chuckled. "That sounds super fun."

"Mhm." I hummed with a slight snicker. "Super fun."

"Listen," He sighed. "I am so sorry for all the pain I've put you through. It was stupid and I wasn't thinking about the good things, only the bad ones."

"I forgive you." I nodded. "I always will."

He gasped lightly. "I love you so much."

"I love you more." I smiled.

He pressed his lips onto mine and I sighed happily. If only this could last forever...

I spent a lot of time with Luis, I didn't want him to be alone. I was scared that if I hurt him, he would try this again. I didn't want that.

"Bubba!" We heard Izzy squeal.

A huge grin immediately spread across his face. "Hi!"

She hopped on top of him and hugged him tightly. He squeezed her back and kissed her head.

"I missed you, amor."

"I missed you more!" She smiled.

He chuckled lightly and kissed her cheek. She smiled and began rambling on about random stuff she did when he was gone. He just nodded along to her words and gasped every few seconds.

"That's amazing." He nodded.

"Yeah, and Amy told me you were sick."

Luis and I looked at each other. "Oh, um, yeah, I was a bit sick." He nodded.

She pouted. "I'm sorry, Bubba."

"It's okay, amor. It wasn't your fault." He brushed his fingers through her hair.

She frowned and played around with Luis's fingers. I chuckled lightly and stood up. "I'll be right back."

I walked out of the room and saw Melanie silently crying in a corner. I sighed sadly and began approaching her.

"Melanie?" I piped up.

She sniffed and looked up at me. "Oh, hi, honey. I'm sorry, I didn't mean for any of you guys to walk out."

"It's okay," I reassured. "What's wrong?"

Her bottom lip quivered. "The doctors said that he might not make it..."

My face turned into confusion. "What do you mean? He seems okay."

She shook her head. "No, he's not okay. He consumed a lot of alcohol, which of course, isn't good for you."

I nodded. "Well, yeah, but he doesn't seem like he's gonna die or anything."

She swallowed nervously. "His body could give up any second which makes me terrified."

"I understand," I nodded. "It's making me scared too..."

She gasped for air. "I don't wanna lose my kid."

This made me heartbroken. I hated seeing parents in pain, especially if it's because of their kids.

"Everything's gonna be okay," I reassured. "You said it yourself, he's a strong kid, he'll pull through."

She nodded. "Yeah, he will."

A small smile painted my lips as she wiped the tears from her cheeks. "Just give me a second, okay?"

I nodded and walked back into Luis's room where Izzy was still talking to him. I laughed and laid down next to him.

"Everything okay?" He asked.

"Uh, yeah, I was just talking to your mom," I explained.

He frowned. "She was crying, wasn't she?"

I sighed. "How did you know?"

"She cries by my bed every night when I'm "asleep" so I figured that's what was happening."

I nodded slowly. "Ah, I see."

"Mommy cries?" Izzy pouted.

Luis sighed. "Sometimes, amor. Why don't you go check on her."

"Okay!" She chirped happily while hopping off of him.

She ran out into the hallway and I let out a long sigh. I hope he doesn't die. I rested my head on his chest and he stroked my hair lightly.

"I'm gonna be okay," Luis reassured.

I sniffed. "I hope so."

"Babe," He faced my head to look up at him. "I promise."

I swallowed but didn't answer. He kissed my forehead lightly and I smiled softly. Please, please, please, don't die.
