Let's Start at the Beginning

Chapter Twenty

Two Months Later...

It's officially April 9th. My birthday! I'm getting released today, and I'm so excited!

I'm hopping into the hospital waiting room, were I hope into Sean's arms. Yes, I saw him, and the gang, every day, but it's different when your out of the hospital. Oh and Monica is now part of the gang!

"Happy Birthday, baby!" Sean hugs me again, then we head out of the hospital.

He hops with me, yes, actually hops, to the car, and he grabbs my arm, so I don't fall over, and helps me into the car. He puts the crutches into the back, and starts driving.

It's like the past is replaying, because Sean pulls into a McDonalds parking lot, goes to the trunk, and guess what? Pulls out a dry cleaners bag! He gets my crutches, and helps me up. We laugh when we both start hopping over to the door, and Sean bows down when he opens the door. Why is he acting so... goofy?

He gives me the bag, and guides me to the bathroom. I walk into the stall, and start changing.

It took me longer to change, because of my leg, but I made it work. There was a dress inside, and some shoes.

The dress, yet again, was beautiful! It was a black dress, and it was strapless. It went down to mid-thigh, and it was a plain, normal dress, but because it was so normal, made it beautiful. The shoes, we're black and white converse, that matched with the dress. Too bad I could only wear one of the shoes...

I put my clothes from earlier into the dry cleaners bag, and walked out of the bathroom. I walked towards Sean, and he looked at me, and smiled.

"You look beautiful, Megs!"

I just blush, and walk out of McDonalds. If I'm wearing this dress, I'm obviously doing something, so I might as well try walking. I loop my arm through Sean's, and walk to the car.

***

About 15 minutes later, we were at home! I told Sean earlier to just leave my crutches in the car, so I could try walking.

Sean opens the door for me, and again, I loop my arm through his, and he walks me to the door. He gets his key out of his pocket, and unlocks the door. It's really dark, so I go and turn on the lights.

"WELCOME HOME, MEGAN!"

I almost started crying, realizing they were throwing me a welcome home party.

"Oh my god, you guys are amazing! Thank you all for doing this!"

Sean grabs my waist, and turns me around. "Come with me." He puts a blind fold around my eyes, and I heard my say "follow me" to the others.

He puts his hands on my shoulders, guiding my somewhere. He suddenly stops walking, and he pushes on my shoulders, telling me to sit down.

He removes my blind fold, and I see people that look a lot like me... "Oh my god, is that... Mom? Dad?"

They both nod, and start running to me. I stand up, and leap into their arms.

"Sweetie, it's good to see you after so long! I missed you so much!" My mother looks a lot like me, and my dad looks more like Monica. I just nod, and continued hugging them.

It felt like I was hugging them for two seconds, before they pulled away.

"And happy birthday, Megs!" They both say at the same time.

Sean reaches out, and grabs my hand. He spins me around, and when I look at him, he's kneeling on one knee...

"Megan Maria Ellis, I love you to death, and I know I haven't told you that, but I do. I love your beautiful smile, I love how you care so much about people, how when your nervous, you start quoting songs. I love how you blush easily, I love how you are a strong, young woman, and how you never give up. I just love you so much! And if you love me too, will you marry me?"

My eyes water up, and I nod my head, until I'm sure my head was going to snap off. He stands up, grinning, puts a beautiful diamond ring on my ring finger, and spins me around.

When he sets me down, I hug him, and whisper, "I love you, Sean."

Yeah, I know, they are only 18, well their lives are different than normal teenagers, so don't think that! Anyway, who saw that coming?? Don't forget, two chaps left. I hope you loved it!
