“That’s I’m your girl.”
I leaned over Bryn, kissing her cheek softly. “Does this mean we can actually be in a relationship?”
“Once I get out of this damn place, I will scream it from the rooftops.” She coughed a little as she spoke.
“Get some rest, baby. I will be right here when you wake up.” I scooted my chair closer, propping my feet up on the end of her bed to settle in for a little nap myself.
“Promise?” she asked as her eyes fluttered shut, the medicine starting to take over again.
“Promise, promise.” I grabbed her hand and made myself as comfortable as I could in the plastic chair at her bedside.
