IOWA

It's the day of her transplant and Harry made it back home just in time after a night of celebrating Levi's engagement with his friends. He missed Luna dearly but she encouraged him to stay an extra night and enjoy his time in New York for a little longer.

He steps out of the Uber after saying goodbye to the driver. He then walks towards the hospital entrance with his travel bag against his side.

"Harry!" Mariana greets him. She had agreed to meet Harry at the entrance.

"Hey! I'm not late, am I?" He says before giving her a hug.

"No, no! Luna's comfortable and waiting. She's a little nervous..." Mariana tells him after hugging him back. "Let's drop your bag off to the car first? They won't let you in with a bag that big."

Harry nods from the information. He can't wait to see Luna. "Right... Yeah, let's do that!" He smiles then follows Mariana to her car.

"How was New York?" she asks him as they walk.

"Great! My flatmate proposed to his girlfriend who he's head-over-heels for... I also got to see my other mate who's having a baby. We're all friends so we went out to celebrate... They missed Luna and frankly, so did I. It's good to be back, though," he explains to Luna's mom.

"That's lovely, Harry... Luna missed you, too. I could tell," she says and gives him a light pat on his back. She then stops when they reach the car. She unlocks it for Harry.

Harry chuckles softly. "I can't wait to see her," he says. He then opens the trunk and sets his bag inside. He makes sure he has his wallet and phone before closing the trunk.

Harry's excited. He's standing outside her room. The door is open and he finally peeks his head inside. "Am I in the right room? I'm looking for a pretty girl named Luna," Harry says with a cheeky grin.

"Harry!" Luna smiles wide and drops her book to open her arms wide for him. She's in her hospital gown and with the same beanie on her head.

Harry finally steps inside her private room. He wraps his arms around her the moment he gets close to her bed. "I'm back! I missed you," he tells her. He makes sure not to squeeze her too tight. She's been very delicate lately.

"I missed you more," she says and hums. She then kisses his cheek.

Harry smiles at her affection. He then turns his head to kiss her lips instead. "Not possible..."

She giggles as she cups his cheeks. "Where's Mom?" she asks when she notices he's alone.

"Oh, she's on her way to pick up Santi."

Luna nods then sighs softly. "I told him he didn't have to come. He's starting to feel the pain from the cell collection. They collected from his bone marrow."

"Your mum was about to come up with me but then Santi called her and said he was perfectly fine and that he wanted to come and see his stem cells be put to good use," Harry tells her and laughs softly.

"Oh, yeah? He probably only wants to come to remind me that he's saving my life and that I owe him for it," she says and playfully scoffs. "Whatever! Tell me everything! How's everyone? No, tell me how he proposed! Tell me about the baby, too."

Harry takes a seat on a chair after he moved it closer to her bed. He laughs over her excitement. "I'll tell you about the proposal first! It sounded magical coming from Jade. So first they went out for dinner. According to Jade, Levi looked nervous as shit so she kinda had a feeling he had something huge to ask... When it didn't happen over dinner, Jade thought it was all in her head. So then they walked to her place hand in hand. They got to her place and Levi had this idea to go up on the roof. No one is allowed up there, by the way. Somehow they made it up and Levi got all romantic. He told her things, made her beautiful promises under the stars, and then he got down on one knee and he asked her if she would do him the honor of marrying him. Jade, in tears, said yes! She said it was all so perfect. She's excited and so is Levi," Harry tells her. He smiles by the end of it.
