CHAPTER 66

  Lucas' P.O.V.

  **Please, if you're willing, listen to Photography by Cody Fry as you read.*"

  My Rose stayed here with me last night. She had slept beside me until they made her move.

  Stupid nurse.

  I couldn't believe she would willingly choose to sleep in a small cot like that rather than in a large bed. I want to tell her how I feel….how I really feel. I need her to know that she is everything to me. I need her to know, but I'm also scared I'll frighten her away. She can be so skittish at times.

  "What's wrong?" She asked, seeming shy. I didn't mean to worry her, but I need her to know I am being serious.

  "Come here," I said, patting the bed again. She slowly made her way towards me.

  "I'm here," she announced as she sat on the edge of the bed. I used my good hand to grab hers, holding it tight in case she tried to run away.
