As the wedding ceremony unfolded, Sam's loved ones surrounded her, cherishing every precious moment with her. Despite her weakened state, Sam's smile lit up the room, her eyes sparkling with joy and love.

With each passing moment, Sam's breath grew more labored, yet she remained determined to savor every second of the celebration. Her loved ones gathered around her, sharing stories, laughter, and tears, creating memories that would last a lifetime.

Sam's smile never faltered, her spirit shining bright despite the pain she endured. She reached out to touch the hands of her family and friends, her touch a comforting presence amidst the bittersweet atmosphere.

With a heavy heart, Sam's personal nurse approached Mon, her eyes filled with compassion and understanding. "It's time for Sam to rest," she gently informed, her voice soft yet firm.

Sam and Mon exchanged a knowing glance, their love speaking volumes without a single word. With a nod of acceptance, they rose from their seats, Sam leaning on Mon for support as they made their way back to their room.

As they walked, Sam's gratitude poured forth, her voice filled with love and appreciation. "Thank you," she whispered, her words a heartfelt tribute to everyone who had shared in their special day.

With each step, Sam's strength waned, but her determination remained unwavering. Mon held her close, offering silent reassurance and unwavering support as they navigated the hallways together, their love a beacon of light in the darkness.

Finally, they reached their room, a sanctuary where they could find solace and peace amidst the chaos of the world. Sam settled into bed, exhaustion evident in every line of her face, yet her spirit remained unbroken, her love for Mon shining bright.

As they embraced, their hearts intertwined in a bond that could never be broken, Sam whispered three simple words that echoed through the room, filling it with warmth and love. "I love you," she murmured, her voice a soft melody that soothed Mon's soul.

With gentle hands, Mon tucked Sam into bed, her touch tender and loving as she prepared her wife for sleep. As Sam settled into the comfort of the blankets, she turned to Mon, her eyes searching for answers in the darkness.

"Why the wedding?" Sam's voice was soft, filled with a mixture of curiosity and sadness. "Even you know I might leave you soon."

Mon's heart ached at Sam's words, her own eyes brimming with tears as she met Sam's gaze. "Because I love you," she whispered, her voice trembling with emotion. "Because every moment we have together is precious to me, and I wanted to make sure we celebrated our love in every way we could."

She reached out to brush a strand of hair from Sam's forehead, her touch gentle and reassuring. "I know the future is uncertain, but I couldn't bear the thought of letting you go without making sure you knew how much you mean to me," she continued, her words a heartfelt testament to the depth of her love.

Sam's eyes glistened with unshed tears as she listened to Mon's words, her heart overflowing with love for the woman who stood by her side through every trial and tribulation. "Thank you," she whispered, her voice filled with gratitude and love. "For everything."

As Mon and Sam lay together in the dim light of their room, a playful energy filled the air. Mon's flirtatious gestures brought a weak chuckle to Sam's lips, her eyes sparkling with love and amusement despite her weakened state.

"Come on, babe," Sam teased gently, her voice weak yet filled with warmth. "You know I can't keep up with you in my condition."

With a playful glint in her eyes, Mon leaned in closer to Sam, a mischievous smile playing on her lips. "Who says we need to do anything strenuous?" she teased, her voice soft and filled with affection. "I can still flirt with my wife, can't I?"

But Mon's desire burned bright, her longing for Sam evident in every touch and every glance. Slowly, she leaned in closer to her wife, her lips meeting Sam's in a tender yet passionate kiss.

In that moment, time seemed to stand still as their love ignited, consuming them both in a fiery embrace. Mon's tongue gently explored Sam's mouth, savoring the taste of her wife as their love overflowed, filling the room with an electric energy that crackled between them.

As they kissed, their love transcended the limitations of Sam's condition, weaving a tapestry of passion and desire that bound them together in an unbreakable bond. And in that intimate moment, Mon and Sam knew that no matter what the future held, their love would endure, a flame that burned bright in even the darkest of times.

As the first light of dawn filtered through the curtains, Sam stirred in Mon's arms, her movements slow and tentative. With a soft groan, she gently nudged Mon awake, her touch gentle against her wife's skin.

"Mon," Sam whispered, her voice barely above a whisper, "wake up." as she saw the vulnerability in Sam's gaze.

"Sam? Is everything alright, Babe?" Mon asked, her voice filled with concern as she leaned in closer to Sam.

Sam's weak smile illuminated her face as she made her request. "Could you take me out to see the sunrise?" she whispered, her voice barely audible in the quiet of the room.

Mon's heart swelled with love at Sam's simple request, her eyes shining with unshed tears. "Of course," she replied, her voice filled with warmth and tenderness. "Anything for you, my love."

With the gentle assistance of Sam's nurse, Mon carefully helped her wife to the shore, the soft sand cushioning their steps as they made their way to the water's edge. The sky was painted in hues of pink and gold as the sun began its ascent, casting a warm glow over the horizon.

As they reached the shore, Mon and Sam settled into a comfortable spot, the sound of the waves lapping gently against the shore providing a soothing backdrop to their morning together. Sam leaned against Mon, her head resting on her wife's shoulder as they watched the sunrise in silence.

As the day wore on, Mon and Sam remained inseparable, their bond growing stronger with each passing moment. Despite the pain that gnawed at Sam's weakened body, she refused to let it dampen the precious time she had with Mon.

Their friends watched in awe as Mon tenderly cared for Sam, her love shining bright in every gesture and every touch. From pushing Sam's wheelchair along the shore to feeding her small bites of food, Mon's devotion knew no bounds.

But beneath the surface, a deep ache lingered, a constant reminder of the fragility of their time together. Each moment was tinged with the knowledge that their time was limited, that eventually, Sam would slip away from Mon's grasp.
