Chapter 41: Recovery
Brielle's POV
*One Month Later*
"Hey Brielle, how are we feeling today?" My surgeon asked as he walked into the room for hopefully the last time. Today was my 6 week appointment and I was hoping to be fully cleared to return back to normal life.
"Amazing. The best I've felt since surgery. I feel back to 100%."
"That's what I like to hear. I'm going to take a look at your incision and do a few more tests, but it sounds like I'll be able to clear you today." He said with a big smile.

"Well Brielle, I feel comfortable completely clearing you to return to normal life."
"Finally!" I exclaimed, pumping my fists in the air.
"It's been a pleasure getting to know you, but if I'm going to be honest, I hope I don't have to see you again." He laughed.
"You have been a stellar doctor, but I also wouldn't mind never seeing you again." I giggled.
"Have a good day Brielle. If you have any further concerns, feel free to call."
"Thank you." I said as he walked out of the room. I jumped out of the bed and wrapped Andy in big hug.
"I'm healed!" I exclaimed as he hugged me back.
"I'm so happy." Andy said, hugging me tighter than he has since I had surgery, but still not as tight as his usual hugs. I could tell he was still worried about me. I was hoping that our relationship would get back to normal soon now that I no longer need a caretaker. We left the room and walked out of the hospital for the last time. We got in to the car and Andy drove us home.

"How do I look?" I asked Andy. We had planned a dinner tonight with the band and their wives, plus Sienna and Sterling, to celebrate my recovery. I was wearing a blue dress that went to my knees. The skirt flared out a bit and there was a bow tied around the waist. The dress had cap sleeves and it went pretty close to my neck.
"Beautiful as always." He smiled, pulling me in for a hug and kiss. We grabbed what we needed and headed out to the car. We drove to the restaurant and got out of the car. I saw Jinxx standing outside of the restaurant with his wife, Alice.
"Brielle! Andy!" The two of them exclaimed as we walked up.
"Hey." We said, hugging them.
"I'm so happy to see you Bri! You look so good!" Alice said with a smile as she hugged me.
"I'm feeling good." I laughed as I hugged Jinxx. We waited around for a little bit, Sienna and Sterling being the next to show up.
"Brielle!" Sienna screamed as she hopped out of the car while it was still moving, running up to me and wrapping me in a tight hug.
"Hi Sienna." I chuckled.
"I'm so happy that you're better! You had me so worried!"
"I'm happy to be better too." I laughed. Sienna had come to visit me about once a week after I was released from the hospital, which was always a welcome change to my day to day boring recovery routine.
We waited a few more minutes until everyone else arrived. We had invited Lonny and Rhita but they were unable to make the trip down here, which we understood. Once everyone arrived, we walked in and got seated. Everyone had visited while I was recovering, but this is the first time everyone has been together since before my surgery.
We sat at the restaurant forever, just talking and enjoying each other's company. It felt good to be out and laughing again. Even though Andy was around all the time, I have felt so lonely for the past 6 weeks. I am so happy and grateful to be recovered and returning to normal life.
After finishing dinner, we all went back to our house to hang out. The guys hung out around the kitchen table, snacking on whatever they could get their hands on in the kitchen while the girls hung out in the living room.
"So, what are you most excited for about being recovered?" Alice asked.
"Honestly, I'm excited for Andy and I's relationship to return to normal. He's been heavy in the caretaker role, and he's really good at it, but I'm ready for my fiancé back. I just got cleared for all activities, and I do mean all activities, and I'm very ready." I said with a wink, causing all of the girls to laugh.
After an hour or two of hanging out, everyone slowly made their way home until it was just Andy and I.
"Well, I think I'm ready for bed, how about you?" Andy asked as he walked over to me on the couch.
"Yeah." I smiled, holding out my hands so he could help me. We walked up the stairs and got ready for bed, finally setting in next to each other. "I love you." I said.
"I love you too." He smiled, kissing me.
