It was my brother Lawson. He never stays up this late, why was he even here? "Hey sis." Said walking up to grab my hand. I heard what you just had to go through. He started crying, I was his only sister, besides what happened when he was 5 and I was about 3.

My mom had a baby girl on March 12 years ago, she was very healthy when she was born, as mom tells me. But just an hour later her lungs collapsed and she barely made it five minutes before she died.

They had greif for the longest time. "I'm fine bubby." I tell him smiling and tears welling up in my eyes. We hugged each other for awhile, before he said goodbye and left the hospital room.

I lay there my eyes staring at the ceiling. My mind wandered back to when I had first fell for Kris. At that point I hadn't known Anthony that long so I had to fend for myself.

The first time I had tried to yell his name many times. Pathetic I know, I was desperate. Let's just say he gave me a weird look and continued to bat.

The second time, I had bumped into Anthony in my apartment complex. The guys were going out to have pizza after a big win, and invited me. I talked to Kris a little bit, but when I tried to give him my phone number he just left. Rough day I guess.

I came back into reality when I realized I was getting very hungry. I ordered some corn, chicken, and mashed potatoes from the cafeteria. It was 1 in the morning but I didn't care.

It wasn't maybe 3 minutes before the food came, and I had it gone in the same time. Then I eventually crashed to tired to function, my stomach still churning a little.

Maybe I would eventually feel better, but the fact was that I didn't right now. It sucks so much. I curled up into a ball under my blanket my dad brought me and just thought about a lot of things.

Did I still have my job? Is life going to be easier after this? Will I marry him? Will my parents grow up successful and happy? Am I happy with my life right now?

This is what I pondered about for awhile before I fell asleep for good this time.

In the Morning:

I woke up peacefully. No one was around me, so I sat up slowly turning my neck to see the clock located on the night stand thing. 3:21.

I was so relieved I had gotten to sleep in for just a little bit longer today. I'm not used to getting up this late. Usually at the latest 10. There was orange juice and fresh apple cinnamon oatmeal on the pull out table set aside just waiting for me to eat it.

I ate slow, still thinking about one thing. "Will I marry him?" I was immediately rushed back into reality when someone walked in the room, and shut the door ever so slightly.

"Hello beautiful." Kris said walked over to my bed and sitting in the chair next to it. I just loved how that man could make an entrance stick with you.

"Hello handsome," I said glaring at him, trying to be serious but couldn't help but smile. "How are you doing? When can you come out?" He was careful with his words, to not sound too rushed and make me nervous.

"I am pretty sure I can be out today, but I cannot actually leave my apartment for 12 hours after I get there." He smiled.

He read me a few of my favorite childhood books so I could just relax. That's what the doctor said I needed, no stress. He started with The Three Little Pigs, then went to one's like Cinderella, and Goldie Locks and The Three Bears.

He sure was a charmer. If a man can read you bedtime stories and be completely fine with it, he's a keeper. He got up after then, told me goodbye, then kissed me on the forehead before he walked out the door and closed it the same way he did before.

I was going home and I was going to see him. I'm going to see my family and everyone else who cared enough to come see me.

It was about 6 o'clock when they released me to go home, under supervision of a parent over night to watch what I do. My mom came and picked me up and took me back to my place. She helped me walk up to the elevator and pushed the button.

We started walking towards the door and I went through my pockets, fishing for my keys. My mom held them up and I smiled as she reached to the slot and turned, unlocking my door.

There were people. That's why he looked so nervous, they were having a You got well soon Party! I jogged in giving them all hugs and kisses, especially my brothers who were emotional.

I love this story line so much! I just want to dedicate the editing help of this book to rizzoanthony, they have helped me learn to write better, so I want to thank you for that.

Sorry about the late update :( I had a meeting after school and had to take care of somethings, then I couldn't figure out what to write. But here it is!
