Love Never Dies
CHAPTER
26
I yawned and nudged Alex. "It's already 1:30, Alex,"
I whispered. "Are you getting tired?" he asked quietly.
"A little bit, but I'm fine." The nurses had taken
Nate off the respirator and he seemed completely normal. He was
laughing and smiling and joking with everyone, and I could tell how
much happier this made Alex. When Nate suffered, his whole family
suffered. When Nate was happy, so was everyone else. The marrow
transplant was already done, and Nate was sore, but he said
he'd take that over the stomachaches from the chemo anyday. He
was going tomorrow to have some tests done to see if it had any
effect on the cancerous cells. "Probably not," Nate had
told me. "I'll have to take chemo for a couple more
sessions, at least." The doctor had decided that she would
need to give Nate some time to recover from his episode, so they
would resume chemo tomorrow, and start radiation the next day.
"So, Nate, do you think you'll be better by the
wedding?" I asked casually. He shrugged and asked,
"Why?" I smiled at Alex and took his hand. "Well,
Alex and I were talking last night, and we want you to be our best
man." Nate's whole face lit up. "Really? That's
awesome! Thanks, guys," he smiled at both of us and we both
gave him a hug. "Oh, my goodness! The wedding!" Mrs.
Coleman cried. "I'd forgotten all about it!" I bit my
lip. Charlotte joined in the conversation. "You haven't
picked a dress, or even chosen a date. You need a venue, food,
music, invitations, oh my god, we have so much work to do." I
nodded and agreed, "We really need to hurry up and at least
set a date. What do you think, Alex?" He thought for a moment.
"Well, it's already the end of December, and we take the
throne in six months, so I think the wedding should be in four or
five months. Maybe the end of April, or the beginning of May?"
Charlotte nodded. "That's perfect. It's not too warm,
but not too cold, and it's usually sunny." She pulled out
her iPhone. "How does Saturday, May 9th sound, Kate?" I
smiled, tearing up a little bit. "It's perfect." Alex
squeezed my hand. "Why are you crying, baby?" Nate
groaned in response, "She cries all the time!" I smiled
up at Alex. "I'm crying because I'm so happy. I'm
crying because I love you, and on May 9th, I'm getting
everything I've ever wanted." he kissed me gently. "I
love you too, Kate." Charlotte "aw"ed while Nate
made gagging noises. "You guys are so adorable,"
Charlotte cooed. "Mom and I are going to give you the most
beautiful, fantastic, amazing, most perfect wedding in the
world!" Alex and I laughed. "We trust you,
Charlotte," I told her. "Well, I think we're going to
go home now. Bye, Nate." I hugged him tight. Then we said
goodbye to Charlotte and Mrs. Coleman, and while we were heading
for the door, Charlotte yelled, "Oh, Kate?" I turned
around. "Yeah?" "Tomorrow morning, we're going
to make invitations and go dress shopping." I smiled.
"Okay, Charlotte, see you then."
