My bosses wife

Chapter 20

[ Emma's pro ]
Midnight that same night. I haven't slept once. Regina has her back to me. She isn't asleep. She hasn't spoken to me since earlier. I'm facing the ceiling and thinking about today. I can't believe she was going to propose to me.

"Gina" I break the silence. She just hummed. "Please talk to me"

"Why? You didn't talk to me about it why should I" she says annoyed.

"Baby come on. You can understand I don't want to live like this. I chose now to finally end this misery because I know my kids aren't going to be alone in the world. They'll have you"

"I wanted to be with you and grow old with you. Emma I wanted to marry you but how can we if your going to die in a year" she snapped still not looking at me. She pulled the cover over her even more so I definitely couldn't see her face. I heard her sniff which meant she was crying.

"Another day without your smile
Another day just passes by
But now i know how much it means
For you to stay right here with me
The time we spent apart will make our love grow stronger
But it hurts so bad i can't take it any longer

I want to grow old with you
I want to die lying in your arms
I want to grow old with you
I want to be looking in your eyes
I want to be there for you, sharing everything you do
I want to grow old with you

A thousand miles between us now
It causes me to wonder how
Our love tonight remains so strong
It makes our risk right all along
The time we spent apart will make our love grow stronger
But it hurt so bad i can't take it any longer

I want to grow old with you
I want to die lying in your arms
I want to grow old with you
I want to be looking in your eyes
I want to be there for you, sharing everything you do
I want to grow old with you

Things can come and go
I know but
Baby I believe
Something's burning strong between us
Makes it clear to me

I want to grow old with you
I want to die lying in your arms
I want to grow old with you
I want to be looking in your eyes
I want to be there for you, sharing everything you do

I want to grow old with you"

I sang.

Once I finished she looked over her shoulder.

"I'm sorry" I says softly.

"No I'm sorry. This is what will help you" she whispered softly.

I held my arms out and she cuddled into me. I kissed her head and kept my lips there for a few seconds. I pulled away and rested my head on hers.

"I do" I whispered.

"Do what" she asked looking at me.

"I do want to be married to you"

"Really? But what about you d"

"Gina I wanna be with you for the rest of my life. Will you marry me before I die" I say cutting her of.

"That's my line" she says before quickly moving up and kissing me softly. I deepened it and held her close. She slowly pulled away but kept her eyes closed. They fluttered open. "I love you. I don't want to loose you"

"I don't want to loose you either. You'll look after my kids won't you"

"I love those kids more than anything in the world. Is there no way you can survive this without medication" she's now cuddled into me. I shook my head.
