May

"I heard the doctors said you are getting better." I say to John. Josh is bringing the cake, as per John's request.

"He did and I am. I feel stronger and ready for the world." Josh walks in with the chocolate cake. He puts it on the hospital patient table.

"I even remembered the knife." He says feeling proud of himself.

"I am happy for you." I say being a sarcastic bi*ch.

"Simmer down. May, here is a gift for you. Open it on your birthday. I want you to spend the day enjoying yourself, you will still find me here the next day. For now I want to see you eat cake." Josh even bought paper plates. He feels like he saved the world. I smile and I take a big slice out and I start eating the chocolate delight.

I wish this moment would never end. I kind of like it here.

It ended and now I am having lunch with Ryan, Dylan, Noah, some girl called Kate and Josh. Triple date as Noah called it. It was supposed to be myself, Josh, Dylan and Ryan but Noah found out and invited Kate.

"When are you coming back to school?" Dylan asked me. Kate looks at me as though she wants to say something. We are sitting in a booth at a pizza place downtown.

"You guys are in high school?" Kate, the uninvited person, inserts.

"Yes, Katy, we are in high school." I say and Josh's hand is on my thigh, telling me to chill.

"I was just asking." She defends, I roll my eyes and I talk to Dylan.

When the food comes everyone one is surprised. Every couple ordered a pizza for them but my baby and I ordered two pizzas for us. We have half of each.

"Honey, You sure you not pregnant?" Dylan jokes and Josh tenses up.

"No, man. I eat like this all the time. Ask Josh, we like eating. "

"She is a vacuum. I am never taking her to a fancy restaurant because she will be mad that there is not enough food." He says and I laugh and I hug him. He does the same. I got someone who gets me.

Kate is telling everyone stories about the time she went camping. As boring as it is I have an idea.

"Babe, why don't we go camping?" I ask him as we are in bed.

"You want to go camping?" He looks at me as though I have two heads.

"Yeah, could be me, you, Ryan, Dylan, Noah and whoever he brings." He stares at the ceiling.

"Okay, when?" Perfect.

"This weekend to also celebrate my birthday." I say, it is my birthday tomorrow.

"I will tell Noah." He says as he turns to face me.

"I will tell Ryan and Dylan." I smile at him and I kiss him. I start taking his shirt off and his hands are in the shirt I am wearing. He looks at me and I look at him. I kiss his amazing lips and I am so glad that these wounds do not hurt that much.

"Baby, are you sure?" He says and I nod

"Yes, I am."

Josh went to the store by himself because I am on bed rest. I have put up a notice on the internet so hopefully I can have some help.

I am alone in the house and I decide to go take a dip in the Jacuzzi. I called Dylan and we have been talking for hours.

Josh hired guards to always be on the look out of Dimitri, I told him it is pointless but he will not listen to reason. His overprotectiveness is cute. He would not let me lift a finger. He feels guilty about the finger even though I told him that it is fine, he can finally say 'you are nine out of ten because I am the one you need.' He won't see it that way.
