Code Pizza

Family

Georgia brought Jensen and Danneel back like she promised. I waved and tried to wipe away the tear stains. "Hi." I whimpered. Danneel moved first to wrap he arms around me. "I'm so glad you're awake. How are you feeling?" I had no idea how to answer that question. I shrugged. No one said anything for a little bit.

"I'm sorry." I finally whispered. "What are earth are you sorry about sweetie?" I heaved a sigh and played with my sheets. "I'm sorry that you all have had to go through so much trouble with me. I'm sorry that nothing good had come out of you taking me in. I don't blame you if you want to send me back into the foster system. I wouldn't blame you at all." Everyone had utter heartbreak on their faces. 

"Raelyn, you listen to me right now. You are our daughter no matter what. You are never allowed to leave us. Sweetheart, we love you so much. We couldn't imagine out lives without you in it anymore. I don't want to think about you leaving or sending you away. We love you. JJ and the twins love you. The entire cast and fans love you. You couldn't leave even if you wanted to. So take those thoughts and shove it away." 

I had tears running down my face during Jensen's speech, so did Danneel and Georgia. "Okay." I sniffled. They all chuckled at my small response. I took a deep breath and slowly released it. You can do this Raelyn. Just say it, you know that everything will be fine now. "I love you. I love you both so much. You're the family I always wanted. You never put me down and you always think of me. You let me express myself and you've been so supportive. I can never thank you enough for that. I just...god I love you guys so much." 

Danneel and Jensen had the biggest smiles on their faces from my confession. It felt amazing to finally tell someone how I truly felt about them. I knew that no matter how bad things got, whether from my nightmares, or my bad days, or my recovery, or people saying hurtful words that my family would always be by my side. They would always be there for me. That was more than I could ever hope for. Because after all...family don't end in blood. 

OOOOKKKKAAAAYYYY!! We did it!! I couldn't ever find a way to slip in the title so should I explain it here? Yeah I'm gonna lol. Death loves pizza so Code Pizza is when Raelyn thought she would die. Ta da lol. Thank you all for all the love and support you have thrown my way. Thank you for following Raelyn's journey. Thank you for being patient when I didn't update as much as I should have.
