Epilogue

I couldn't sleep last night. It's finally my day back home and I'm sleeping comfortably with the love of my life beside me. It's twelve fifty nine am and I can't believe today is the day of our graduation. It's only yesterday when I came to a foreign land that changed my entire life completely.

I support myself with my elbow as I look at his face. All those months I was laying unconscious, I missed his face. He's the only person that made me struggle to live for another day. I trace his face with my hands cupping it. I missed everything about him.

I snuggle myself closer to him and lay my head on his freehand. I could feel his soft slow breath as I lay close to him. I still remember the day Nicholo told me about everything at my mother's funeral. I really hate the fact that he was my dad because he's one heartless human being but at the same time I can't help but thank him because Im alive thanks to his heart.Laire and Thomas are getting along pretty well considering the fact that he is her dad, but she hasn't lost touch with both Zach and Annabelle.

"Why are you not asleep yet?" I adjust my head so that I'm looking straight into Matt's eyes. I avoid his question and say the only thing that has been on my mind since the time I was at the hospital , they way I missed him.

"I love you Ashton Matthews. I want to be yours as much as I want you to be mine." I pull out the family  ring that Thomas returned to me and place it exactly where he placed mine but on his hands now. "Will you be mine?"

Huh? He thought I didn't hear him ask me to be his at the hospital. Well too bad Matt.

I'm suddenly pushed to him and he gives me a breathtaking kiss. One that practically takes my breath away. Over the past few days I'm starting  to become addicted to this man laying here right next to me. He's my daily dose.

He pulls away too quickly and I can't help but groan disappointedly. I can feel his smirk even without looking at him. He touches my forehead with his a habit I have came to realize he likes very much.

"I'm yours baby doll, as much as you are mine."
He pulls me to himself and this time the kiss lasts longer.

"I'm lucky to have you Matt."

"No, I'm lucky to have you. I love you so much baby doll. " Everytime he says that my heart can't help but miss a bit.

"And I love you more Matt."

"Then I love you most."

Well I guess you can never really win against him. "Tomorrow is our graduation. We really need to catch some sleep before then."
"But I wanted us to stay like this till morning." He pouts at me but I can't help but laugh. The Matthews don't really know how to pout. Including Jessi.

"I'm tired remember I only came from the hospital today. I need to take rest."

"But you haven't done anything since you came. You know I have been carrying you around like the baby doll that you are. Besides, you have been sleeping for the past five months. Do you know how much I've missed you."

"What! I was in a comma for five months? But you guys told me it was only for two months. You lied to me Ashton."

Matt's pov

I didn't mean for that to slip. We had lied to her that she had been in the coma for only two months because the doctor had told us that in some cases when the patient gets to know how long they have been in a coma especially if it five months or more, they can easily snap out.

"Ooh really."

Wait did I just say all of that out aloud?
"I'm afraid you did."

She crosses her arms trying to act mad but I know she can't be mad at me for long.

"Baby we were only trying to look out for you. You don't  know how desperate we were without you here. I was not myself and we didn't want you to snap back into..." I see her face softens as she comes to me and gives me a hug. I tighten my arms around her pulling her more into me as if if I let go she would disappear into thin air.

" I'm sorry I made you pass through all that. "

" It's OK, what matters is that you are here now." I burry my face more into her hair taking in her scent. She's the best thing to ever happen in my life and I'm only thankful for one thing. The very same thing that brought her to me.
