"I don't see any reason why you can't be discharged. You're improving at a rapid pace, as long as you don't overwork yourself then I'm sure you'll be fine." The doctor smiled as I looked up at Jack excitedly while he gave me a small smile in return.

After going over a few rules with the doctor, we were clear to go and I shook with slight excitement as I was wheeled out of the hospital.
"You know, I can get you a photoshoot if you want to get away for a bit, or we can book you a holiday?" He suggested as my face lit up at the idea.
"A holiday sounds perfect. Won't it take a while though?" I asked, getting a little disheartened at the thought of saving for months before booking a few months in advance, luckily, Jack had planned ahead and smirked down at me.

"No my dear, it won't. I booked a holiday a while ago for me and my boyfriend, James. It shouldn't be too much hassle to book another plane ticket and hotel room and if worst comes to worst then I'll make James crash on the couch." He smiled as I frowned.
"Jack, that's not fair, I'm the one interrupting, I'd take the couch." I argued as he shook his head.
"No. If we were in the same bed then you'd be hearing things that you most likely don't want to."

Instead of arguing, I nodded, I definitely didn't want to hear anything close to what he was implying.
"Okay so when do we leave?" I asked, watching him as he glanced at me sheepishly.
"Um tonight." He muttered, sighing as he toon in my wide-as-saucer eyes, "Don't worry, I'm getting James to drive us to your house and I'll help you pack."

"Okay."

We reached the car and a guy with a full face of professional-looking makeup got out of the car.
"Hey sister! I'm James." He smiled, pulling me in for a careful hug as I smiled, feeling relief flush through me. He was lovely.

Jack helped me into the car and I closed my eyes as we drove home. I was almost asleep until my phone began to ring. Upon seeing that it was Grayson, I sighed, yet reluctantly accepted. If I didn't, he'd keep calling until I did.

"Cass, where are you? We came to the hospital and they said that you signed out! I need to talk to you." He sighed, sounding worried, which annoyingly, made my heart beat quicker- he still cared.

"I'm going on holiday with Jack and his boyfriend, I need a break." I sighed, closing my eyes as I rested my head against the window.
"So there's not gonna be any other girls there?" He demanded, as I rolled my eyes.
"No there won't but there's no need to be so jealous since my 2 male companions are gay." I exclaimed angrily before hanging up and groaning.

"So, who's this boy that's causing all this drama?" James asked as I said nothing, only pulling up Grayson's instagram to show him a photo. The photo that came up first was a picture of him smiling behind a pile of pancakes.
"Wow daddy, cover me in syrup." James muttered, getting hit on the back of a head by Jack who pouted.
"I'm your daddy."
With wide eyes, I spoke up again, "Excuse me, I do not want a daddy wars while I'm present."

The two guys laughed at my discomfort before we finally arrived at my house. Quickly, I jumped out and thanked James for the lift before taking Jack to my room so we could pack for the holiday.

"So you need a lot of bikinis. It'll be hot and you can definitely get some Male attention while wearing them."
"I don't want Male attention yet. I've just come out of a relationship with Grayson." I sighed as Jack raised his eyebrows.
"Babes, you're gonna get the attention whether you like it or not. Besides, don't go to look for a relationship but if you find a guy you like then go for it. Nothing will be holding you back." He smiled as I nodded, not agreeing but wanting him to change the subject.

We continued packing in silence for a while, before Jack thankfully broke it since it got slightly awkward and tense.
"So, What did Grayson call you for?" He asked, looking at me to check my reaction at him bringing up the name.
"He just wanted to know where I was..." I shrugged, not bothering to lie, it was pretty obvious what he was saying from my responses anyway, Jack simply didn't want the silence.

"You're taking this and don't you dare say no!" Jack squealed, holding up a sequinned dress that shone iridescent when it caught the light. The twins had bought it for me as a present when I lost the weight and although I wasn't on great terms with the people who bought it, it did hold good memories and therefore I let jack pack it. Besides, I looked amazing in it.

He also packed some items from my makeup line that I was still overwhelmed about. It was amazing how far I'd come since my high school days. One of my favourite parts was having all the bullies follow my Instagram and I ignored the notification, not wasting my time to follow them back. They didn't deserve it.

"Are you ready to go sweetheart?" Jack finally asked as I stood up, a wide smile decorating my face.

"Let's go."
