The Claire Jones Story (Re-write/Edited)

Chapter 11

Tina smiled " Where did you meet Rico?"

Claire smiled as well " We met at his house. It was something we had to do for Voto Latino a few years ago and when I asked him for a drink he brought me a Sippy cup. I thought he was very attractive when I first met him but he wanted nothing to do with me at first but I'm very persistent when it comes to the things I want."

Tina laughed and Claire nodded

" But when it came to Rico, he was so different from the other goes I dated. Rico really does care about be and my health, he calls me beautiful every time he sees me and I blush like crazy."

Tina nodded " You're doing right now"

Claire's eyes widen and she put her hands in front of her face " OMG!"

Tina moved Claire's hands " It's nothing to be ashamed of blushing is good. Do you know what that tells me?"

Claire shook her head

"That you can be loved if you let. And it looks like your in love as well."

Claire had a big smiled on her face " Yes, I am in love with Rico."

Claire was back in her room when the doctor came in and sat on her bed.

" Hey Claire"

Claire looked up " Hey, What's up?"

The doctor smiled " There is someone here to see you."

Claire was confused but she still got out of bed and walked out the room and to the meeting area. When she got there tears rolled down her face because he was back.....again. He comes every weekend after work just to com see her.

Claire smiled " Rico"

Rico smiled as well " Hey beautiful"

Claire smiled and they hugged, they haven't seen each other in five days and to them it feels like forever when you're in love. They sat there and talked about anything for hours till it was time to go.

As they were about to leave he whispered something in her, she smiled and nodded he walked out the door and she still had a smile on her face when she walked back into her room.

" So what did he say that put that big smile on your face?"

Claire looked up " He said that he loved me."

The doctor got off the bed and walked toward Claire " I could've told you that." She chuckled.

Claire was confused " What do you mean?" 

The doctor smiled " He told me everything. The first time you met was your moms birthday. How you were very persistent on getting him to go out with you and you got him to go out with and it only took months. Hell it sometimes takes me years but you guys are different. He also told me that your parents didn't agree at first but they saw that it was real and they believe in it."

Claire nodded 

" You found love at a very young age and I truly believe you too are going to make it."

Claire nodded " I believe it too."

The doctor nodded " Okay, lets go get you something to eat and me too cause I'm hungry."

Claire laughed " Me too."

When they got to the cafeteria they got their food and sat down at a table and Claire looked down at her food and the doctor notice.

" Claire sweetheart, you were doing so well this morning. You have to eat to get better and get the hell up out of here."

Claire looked at the doctor " I'm scared."

A tear rolled down her face.

The doctor nodded " I know your scared but you have to do these. Do these for your little sister. Do these for you fans. Do these so you can prove that no matter what your going through you can ask for help and it will get better. You just have to face your fears and jump."

Claire nodded as the doctor wiped away the tear rolling down Claire's face.

Claire took a deep breath and grabbed the fork and took her first bit and another and another until the plate was empty.

The doctor nodded " That's good and no you can go back to your room just yet. Let's just sit here and breath for a while."

They just sat there for as long as they wanted and just breathed.
