Carmen’s POV

Shane took me into her arms and held me tightly for a long moment. For the first time since she left me at the altar I felt safe with her again. Tears rolled down my cheeks. Not because I was sad. No, this time I felt happy and relieved. Shane’s words were sincere and I could feel it.
She wiped my tears away and rested her hands on my cheeks looking at me.

"I’m sorry for the pain you had because of me. I know it happened too often and you might not believe me, which I’d understand…but this time I want to do my best to make you happy. I won’t promise you that you will never cry because of me again. I can’t promise you that because everybody makes mistakes and I’m sure that I’m still going to make some of them. But what I can promise you is that I will try my best to be a better person for you. Because I am your person right? I really hope so because you are mine. You’re the one I care for. The one I always want to be with. The one who is always in my head no matter what I do. You’re the one I love. My person."

I smiled softly.

"Well if this is your definition of the word person I guess I can consider you as my person,too I love you, Shane."

I kissed her forehead, then her nose and finally our lips met again. It was a really soft kiss, but still a good one. Then we looked at each other without saying anything. We didn’t need to say anything. The way we looked at each other expressed our feelings well enough.

Shane’s POV

Finally we left the hospital and again I hoped that I wouldn’t see it again too soon although at that moment I didn’t care. I was too happy to have Carmen back.

Although I’ve only been away for two days I couldn’t wait to be at home again. When I opened the front door I could smell pizza.

"Hey Yoda! Welcome back at home again."

"Hey everybody."

Alice, Tasha, Jenny, Tina and Max were standing in the kitchen and it looks like they have been baking or something because all of them had flour on their hands and even at their clothes.
