Sixty One.

"Just make sure to keep washing it with a neutral soap and you'll be fine. You won't need your bandages anymore", doctor Griffin told me after my last ever check up.

Hopefully.

Regarding the whole Carter thing mind you. Who knows why else I'd have to come back.

The last couple of days had been pretty hectic. And to be honest, everything had gone much quicker than expected.

The morning after my friends had came to the hospital I've been cleared out of the hospital so me and Cody had gone to the police station where we'd been interrogated. It was a very long day.

Luckily, according to our lawyer we wouldn't have any trouble at all. We'd just have to come to the trial in a few months, but until then we were free to go.

So that's why today Cody had come with me to the hospital for a last check up and to see if once and for all we could finally start leaving all of this behind.

"What did she say?", he looked up at me as I came out of the room.

"I'm good to go", I smiled as he hugged me.

"That's my girl", he said as we started making our way through the hallways towards the exit.

When we got there, we stopped and faced each other.

We stared at one another, none of us saying anything.

"What now?", he finally spoke.

"I can't go back to school...", I confessed what I'd been figuring out the last two days.

"So what are you gonna do? Where are you going to go?", he asked, curious.

I chuckled once.

"Actually... I have two tickets for Amsterdam that... I can use", I changed my sentence at the last minute. "I could use a getaway. Be away for a couple of days and figure out my next move. What about you?".

"I'm gonna go away to. Need a new scenary as well. Try and get a normal job", he chuckled.

"Yeah... Hey", it suddenlt occured to me. "Stay at my place", I said referring to my mom's place.

"But... That's your house now".

"I can't go back there. I can't live in that house... Too many memories", I stated as he nodded once, understandingly. "Take it. Until you figure out what to do. It's fine", I admitted.

"Thanks, Belle. Guess... I'll see you in a couple months".

"Yeah", I chuckled. "Thank you. For everything. See ya".

And before we left, we hugged each other awkwardly before going our separate ways.

"Flight to Hong Kong, gate 31, is 30 minutes late. Flight to Hong Kong...".

I'd just stepped into the airport after a very relaxed day at the hotel. After the hospital I'd gone back to take a nap, shower and just chill in bed, trying to relax as much as I could.

Before I could no longer check out I went and did so as I made my way towards the train station where I took the last train to London.

I'd next taken a cab to the airport once I got here and this is exactly where I was right now.

I sat in a little cafe and had breakfast as I waited for it to be the time until I could finally check into my flight.

It was a sunny, beautiful day.

Pretty unsual in London.

It was still early so there weren't too many people inside the airport.

I was nibbling my croisants and sipping my coffee when a voice almost made me spill everything on top of me.

I watched shocked as he sat down in front of me.

James.

The mere sight of him made my legs wobble and I was sitting...

What the hell was he doing here??

"W-what... What...".

He chuckled.

Why did he look so relaxed? And sexy?

"I don't understand shit", I finally said.

"Guess he really did tell you I hadn't come to the hospital", he chuckled to an unsaid joke I clearly wasn't getting.

"Are you on drugs?", was the only thing I could muster to say.

He chuckled again.

Okay, if he gave me that side grin once more...

"I told Cody to tell you that... I did come see you at the hospital. As mad and hurt as I felt I couldn't stay away until I knew you were fine...", he explained. "That's when Cody finally explained everything to me... He's a great guy you know that?".

"Yeah", I smiled.

"He told me to take great care of you", he went on. "And I'm sorry I haven't been here the last two days. I've been in Chelmsford... It's been a hectic few days...".

"Tell me about it".

"I'm an ass so I really needed advice from my parents about all of this...".

"And what did they say?".

"That if I didn't chase you I was the biggest loser ever...".

I chuckled.

"Besides, I'm a real dick and I wanted you to think I wasn't coming so you'd be doubled surprised when you saw me".

"You're right... You are a dick", he laughed showing off his teeth. My favourite smile. "And you did surprise me".

We looked intently at one another for a few seconds.

I was in such awe.

Was all this just a dream?

As if reading my thoughts, he leaned in and brushed my cheek with his thumb.

"I love you, Belle. I finally know the truth about everything... And I'm really sorry I ever doubted you...", he said making my insides weaker by the second. "And for the record... I never slept with Mila...".

And pulling him by his collar neck, I pulled him in close and we finally kissed.

It was just like out first kiss again. Electric, deep, full of love...

He brushed my lips slowly, and then roughly.

It seemed mere seconds had passed when he pulled away.

"Babe, we got a plane to catch".

He payed for the bill, he took my suitcase and intertwining our fingers we maed our way to our gate, together.
