Kalee's POV

Emmah walks into the room with red cheeks and a big smile, holding Alex's hand behind her. He too, looks like the happiest boy in the world, a proud smile finding its way to his face too. They walk to the chair on the other side of Jace's bed, Alex sits down and pulls Emmah to sit on his lap.

I look to see Jace's expression and he is just sitting there with his mouth partly open and one eyebrow raised. "So what's new with you two that we don't know about yet?" I ask them.

"I think we're back together?" Alex answers me first, saying it like a question rather then a statement, then looking to Emmah for reassurance. She smiles again and nods her head while Alex rubs her leg warmly.

"So I'm guessing you told her why you did all of that shit?", He better have told her the truth about his stupid ex-girlfriend and all her threats she said.

Instead of Alex answering me, Emmah did first, "So you knew about that and didn't even tell me? Is that why you wanted me to listen to him so badly?" as she says this she stands up and points at me.

"Well duh, why else would I want you to listen to some jackass give you excuses?", I ask her in a duh tone. "and me and Alex talked through some things too."

"Oh...like stuff like..." Emmah says hoping one of us would fill in the blank she left.

"if you're thinking about things dealing with Annabelle then your right, we worked that stuff out. He isn't going to be her dad now or anything, and we still aren't telling people at school about her but I think I've forgiven him." I say.

Emmah looks to Alex with a stunned expression. "really?", He nods his head yes, his hair falling in his eyes. Emmah runs her hand through his hair to move it out of his face but leaves her hand there and plays with his hair. They are good for each other, kinda weird with me saying that-Alex being my ex and all- but I actually thing they are good together.

I turn to look at Jace and he's already looking at me, "I love you".

Emmah's POV

Times like these you forget the bad and just think of the good things that are happening right here and right now. It makes you really stop and appreciate the things we have and the people we care about. Sitting here cuddling with Alex, back together again, and Jace and kalee good as always.

But these things never last forever.

Jace still has cancer. He is still in the hospital. He still is sick. But he will at better. He will get out of the hospital. Everything will get better. I just know it, it has to.

A short, slender nurse with her long blonde hair pinned up in a bun and a warm smile complimenting her face walks into the room and stops at the foot of Jace's bed. "So we are going to transfer you to another room now Mr. Howardson. You ready?"

Jace makes a sour face, "uh, could you call me by my first name? When you call me by my last it sounds like your talking to my dad."

"Oh yes of course! I'm sorry I didn't know, thanks for telling me," she looks down at her clipboard to read something, "Jace."

He nods his head, "yeah my name is Jace. So can I just walk to my room or do I have to be pushed on the bed or something?"

The nurses face falls a little, " I'm sorry but hospital rules say that you have to be pushed in a wheelchair to your room and if you want to travel around the hospital then you need a wheelchair. It's in the hall I'll just go grab it really quick." She opens the door, grabs the chair and then brings it over to Jace's bedside and helps him get in it.

Kalee has a look of disgust when she sees the nurse helping Jace in a wheelchair instead of letting her help. Kalee discretely shoves the nurse out of the way so she can push his chair behind the hall. It hardly seems to face the nurse, she you'd and pretty, and too preppy to get upset it seems.

We follow her down the hall to an elevator and go up to the next floor and find Jace's new room. It's a lot bigger then his other room, a small fold up couch is against the wall and he has his own bathroom in the other corner closer to his bed. A medium sized tv is perched up on the wall for Jace to watch whenever he wants, and then a couple chairs are off to the sides of the room for us to use.

"Do you this this will be ok for you, do you need anything else?"

"Nothing else from you" Kalee mumbles under breath, but I still heard it and have to hold back a laugh.

"Yeah I think this will work for us, thank you." Jace replies, then she skips off to help some other patient.

"She was totally flirting with you and you just let her! You even smiled at her!?" Kalee accuses Jace as soon as the door closes behind the nurse.

Jace chuckles a bit, "don't worry babe, I already have you to flirt and smile with so I won't be leaving you for a nurse."

"Good."

Alex comes up from behind me and wraps his arms around my waist and kisses my cheek. I squirm around a little bit, laughing as he tickles my side's gently. I twist around so I'm facing him and try pushing away from him by pressing on his chest. God I missed feeling his hard chest beneath my fingers, and his sweat scent that always comforted me.

I stop and look into his eyes, wrinkled up from his sweat smile and then remember that this is why I fell in love with him

A/N: Hey people!! I'm on winter break now so woop whoop! So I have a few things to discuss now

1.) I want to change the title of the story to something else and I need some help thinking of a good one

2.) When I change the title it would be awesome if somebody could maybe make me a new cover

3.) I plan on ending the story within the next couple chapters because I came up with a good ending but I want to know if you guys want a sequel or something else, and what should it be about

4.) Merry fucking Christmas- haha sorry :) I'm just saying merry Christmas now just in case I don't update again before Christmas..but be safe and have a happy holidays
