Am i dying? I had to ask that question way to many times. I really didn't mind if i did. if there really is a God, maybe i will see him. maybe i won't.

Honey, its ok to let go. its ok.

I won't be a mother anymore.

Gasping. that's all i can do when reminded by this memory. She will always love me.

"Hazel?"

My mother asks as my eyes flutter open. instead of answering her i ask for Grayson.

"Mom?"

"Yes honey?"

"Where's Grayson?"

"Do you like him?"

"Maybe, a little i guess."

"He has been waiting outside for hours, he saw you fall and he brought you to the hospital when you blacked out."

"What happened to me?"

"Am i sick again, mom?"

"Hazel, you havn't gotten any better lately. in fact..."

She takes a deep breath.

"You are almost cancer free."

Alright Hazel. don't get to excited. your probably just having a really good dream. 

So i tried slapping myself in the face.

"Hazel? Whats wrong with you?"

"Ok, I'm definitely not dreaming. mom?"

"Yes honey?"

She says this with a big smile on her face.

"Why am i here then? What happened earlier?"

"Your building strength. your muscles are tired. your knee gave out. but i think you should talk to him."

I knew what she meant by Him.

                                         I saw the door open and i jumped right up. 

"Hazel?"

"Grayson?"

He looked over to me laying in my hospital bed and made a beeline for me. He wrapped his arms around me and i put my head against his chest. then this happened.

                      I looked right into his eyes. he did the same for me. Then slowly we both leaned in closer. then he held my face in his hands and kissed me.

And at that moment i realized, i loved him.
