Laura's POV:
Ross and laid on his bed and then I noticed he had fallen asleep on my chest. Then the doctor comes in, "How long will he be here?" I ask. He takes a sigh and says, "It depends, days, weeks, months. If his heart isn't strong enough he'll have to stay here. He's still on bypass, so it's just a matter of time until his next surgery." He informs me. "Will he make it through his next surgery? You said his heart is weak, will it be strong enough for surgery?" I ask wanting answers. He looks me deeply in my eyes and he gets ready to tell me something, "Sweetie, his heart is extraordinarily weak, his heart can make it but there is a possibility that he'll flatline on the table. We're going to try very hard to keep him alive. But until then we'll have to watch him very carefully so he doesn't get seizures, he hit his head pretty hard we're lucky he didn't become brain dead. I hate to say it but you have to be prepared if he does pass away in the hospital." He says "Thank you." I say holding back the tears. He nods and leaves after checking Ross' vitals and everything else. After he leaves I start crying, trying to stay quiet so I don't wake Ross up. Apparently I didn't do a good job, because he woke up and asked, "Laura, why are you crying?" He says sitting up and I take the opportunity and sit on the chair by his bedside. "What's wrong?" He asks me, I wipe my tears and say, "Um, well the doctor said that you might not make it." I say looking at him "Did you call my family?" He asks trying not to cry, Yeah, they contacted them already. "Are you okay?" I ask, he doesn't respond he just looks away and stares at the opposite wall with his head laid back on the pillow. "Ross" I say getting up and sitting on the bed and lay his head on me and I stroke his hair. And then he starts crying and holds them back to talk, "Laura, I love you." he says, "No, you're not doing that you're fine, you're gonna be fine." I say, my voice breaking, "I'm dying, it's ok-" I cut him off "No you're not you hear me you're not dying!" I say crying hysterically now. "Laura, I want you promise me after I'm gone you'll go on live your life and (by now I'm standing on the floor and he's still laying there his head laid back) fine someone to grow old with, we'll be together again just don't hold on to me forever." he tells me "No! You're not dying. How am I supposed to love someone when I love you?" I say "He looks at his hands and back at me. "Laura, you think I want you to love someone other than me? I want to grow old with you, marry you have kids with you. I want you, but I don't want you to be held down by me. "Then let's get married. Let's grow old together, have kids. Marry me." I say
