Grinning, I nod while joking with them, “Yeah, so hands off my man.”

Summer is the only one who says, “I’m happy for you both.”

She used to hang out with two girls I couldn’t stand, but after they left Trinity, Summer has become a friend and a great asset to the decorating committee.

Kao’s fingers intertwine with mine, and he begins to drag me out of the room, saying, “It’s time to feed your man.”

KAO

Over the past two weeks, my sight has gotten much better. I’m able to see all the primary colors but still struggle with shades. The blurriness has lessened somewhat, and I’m hoping in another two to four weeks, my sight will be back to what it was before the accident.

The main thing I’m focusing on is that my vision keeps improving.

Fallon checks the time again, and it has me taking hold of her arm. I pull her against my chest and wrap her up in a hug. “Everything is going to go well,” I try to reassure her.

Wrapping her arms around my waist, she sucks in a deep breath. “I’m just scared.”

“I’ll be there every step of the way.” Pulling her a little back, I press a tender kiss to her lips and getting to make out the rich golden-brown of her irises, a smile tugs at my mouth. “We’re in this together. Okay?”

Fallon nods, and she gives me a quick hug before she pulls back and linking our hands, we leave the room.

When we walk into the shared open space, Noah glances up from where he’s drinking coffee, “Are you guys leaving?”

“Yeah, Fallon needs to check-in by seven.”

He sets down his cup and comes to give her a hug. “Good luck, Fallon.”

“Thanks.”

As we take a step toward the front door, Hana calls out, “Hold your horses.” She comes to join us, then says, “Did you think I’d let you leave without me?”

A wide smile splits over Fallon’s face. “Of course not, but I wanted you to sleep in.”

“Not a chance in hell of that happening.”

Fallon, Hana, and I file out of the suite. While we make our way out of the building, Fallon says, “Thank you for coming with, Hana.”

“Of course. There’s nowhere else I’d rather be.”

When Fallon unlocks the car, Hana climbs in the back, and I slip into the passenger side. Fallon gives me a nervous smile. We first put on our seat belts, then I lean over and give her a kiss.

I’ll only be able to drive once my doctor clears me. Dad’s already gotten me another car, seeing as my old one was written off. Then again, I’m not sure I’m ready to be behind a steering wheel. That’s something I’ll face once Fallon is better.

When Fallon parks the car outside the hospital, she lets out a heavy breath. “Ugh, I’m so nervous. I feel nauseous.”

“You’ll be fine,” Hana says before she climbs out of the vehicle.

It’s a process of checking Fallon into the hospital, and when we finally get shown to a private room, Hana says, “I’m going to get us some coffee.” She rushes out of the room, probably to give us some privacy.

I bring my hands to Fallon’s face and framing her cheeks, I stare deep into her eyes. “Who loves you?”

She begins to grin as she looks up at me. “You.”

“And who am I?”

Her grin widens into a smile, “Mine.”

“Damn right,” I chuckle, then growing serious, I say. “You’re going to be fine. Okay? Dr. Menard is the best.”

Fallon nods, looking a little less tense.

I lean down, and moving my left hand out of the way, I press kisses to her scars. A nurse comes in, and I pull back so she can take Fallon’s vitals. Once she’s done, the nurse says, “Dr. Menard has been notified that you’re here. He’ll be with you shortly.”

Once the nurse leaves, Fallon sits down on the bed.

When Hana comes back into the room, she hands me a coffee.

“Thanks.”

Hana takes a sip of her own, then her eyes lock on mine.

“What?”

A smile tugs at Hana’s lips. “Thanks, Kao.”

Frowning, I ask, “For?”

“Being the man Fallon deserves.”

A grin spreads over my face. Before I can think of something to say, Fallon chuckles. “Yeah, he’s the best, isn’t he?” Then she glares at our coffees. “So unfair that I can’t have any.”

“Sorry, but I’ll turn into a serial killer if I don’t get caffeine in,” Hana jokes.

Just then, Mr. and Mrs. Reyes comes in. They hug Fallon and greet us before Mr. Reyes asks, “Has Dr. Menard been to see you?”

“The nurse said he’ll be here soon,” Fallon answers.

Fallon sits down on the bed but shoots back up when Dr. Menard comes in.

He first greets everyone, then turns to Fallon, “How’s my patient today? Nervous?”

“A minute away from a nervous breakdown,” Fallon admits. “It’s good to see you again, Doctor.”
