***Nash's POV***

As Violet lay here in my arms, I can't help but think about the tour and how she will do. It worries me to think that she won't be able to come. I need to talk to her mother before she wakes up. Or else she will fight me about going or not going. We don't need that.

I snake my arms out from around her. She let out a soft whimper and moved around, but didn't wake. I stand up and adjust my clothes before walking out in search of Jennifer. I find her sitting in the waiting room. Her hands are clasped together in her lap with her head down.

"Jennifer?"

The blonde haired woman snaps her head up. Her face is stained with tears.

"Can I talk to you?" I ask while pitting my hand on her shoulder for a little comfort.

"Sure, Nash." She stands up and follows be to the chairs right in front of Violet's room. We sit down. "Whats up, hun?" she asks.

"It's about Violet coming on the tour." I begin. She nods telling me to continue but her facial features are down. "I don't know if she can or can't go now. I wanted to see what you think. Like I want her to live her life for as long as she has it." I can feel a tear streaming down my face. "I want to be with her forever. I'm just scared that something will happen during the tour and her doctor won't be there. Like you said. Not a lot of doctors can deal with this type of cancer. What if something happens and the doctors there can't help? What if she doesn-"

"Honey calm down." Jennifer cuts me off and brings me in for a hug as I sob into her shoulder. "Shhhh it's okay. Everything's going to be okay." I sit up and dry my teared up face. I meet her gaze. "Your basing all of these assumptions on 'what if's' but you don't need to worry. Violet is a strong girl. She has made it through so much. And I think this tour will be good for her. I think she should go, however, this isn't all up to me. It's up to her and how comfortable she feels about it. Just don't try any funny business." She jokes as my face reddens.

Too late. I push my thoughts aside.

"Yes ma'am. Of course. I just.. I just want to save her like she has saved me. Violet has made me a new person. I am happier with her than I have ever been. I just wish she could be here with me forever. I know that's kind of selfish, but I love her." I smile as those last three words roll of my tongue.

"I know you do. And she loves you. So be there for her." She she says with a bright smile. "Now go save our girl." She smiles and pats me on the back and walking back into the waiting room.

I stay seated there for a while to think about how to approach Violet with this. I don't want her getting upset with me.

"Nash?" I hear the familiar hoarse voice.

I walk into the hospital room to see Violet sitting up in her bed.

"I'm right here baby." I say as I go to sit with her on the bed.

"I heard you talking to my mom." she says as she looks down at her hands, a nervous habit I find her doing. "Nash, I still want to go. I don't want this to change anything." I smile but shortly after let it fall.

"I'm just scared something will happen and we won't be able to save you. I won't be able to save you." I say while grabbing her hand and intertwining our fingers.

"That's the thing though, you already are saving me. And this tour will be the cherry on top. I will make sure to take my medication everyday and to stay healthy. I need this trip. I need this. I need you." My heart skips a beat with the last three words.

"I love you." I blurt.

"And I love you." I pull her body close to mine and wrap my arms around her. I leave a kiss on her forehead. "We leave tomorrow, right?" turns her head to ask.
