Falling for a goodbye

Shock

Chloe's POV

It's been a week since that fight and I'm so confused about what's going on with Ryan and I'm really getting worried, he saw his mom and sister the other day, he asked me not to be here, at first I thought he was embarrassed by me but then he's seen his doctor like 3 times this week at least so I don't think it's that

And that worries me because why did his family suddenly need to come down to see him? I'm so confused, and I'm scared for him

That night I came back from my night out, I have Friday nights off, I usually stay with him anyways and we'll have a date night but apparently today I had to go out, I was sent away, that really worried me, I don't really like leaving him on his own at the moment, but anyway I came home and I walked into something completely insane, there were candles everywhere and rose petals, it was insanely beautiful, then I looked up and saw Ryan, his face illuminated by the candle light

"Hey" he says in a way that gives me butterflies

"Hey" I reply trying not to die at how adorable this was

"How was it?" He asks me

"It was great, did you do all this?" I quickly get back on the topic at hand

"Maybe" he says with a smile in a way that tells me he did

"Thank you, that must've been a lot of work" I tell him, I'm honestly not sure I'm worth it

"Yeah, I mean I only burnt myself like 3 times so it wasn't too bad" he jokes

"What's all this about anyway?" I ask nervously

"We need to talk, it's important" tells me and I nod nervously

"Is this about why your mom and sister came to visit and I had to leave and why you've seen your doctor so many times this week?" I just let it out

"Yeah, it is" he acknowledges

"Are you sick?" I ask him

"No, I'm fine" he replies leaving me at a loss as to what all of this is about

"Then what's going on?" I ask him more nervously still

"Come here sweetheart?" He asks softly
I do as he asks me then stand there even more worried than I already had been

He lifts himself out of his wheelchair using all the strength he has in his arms and lands on one knee

Oh

My

God

"R...Ryan...." I start but he cuts me off

"Please just let me get this out?" Asks and I nod in shock, unable to make words come out of my mouth to form sentences anyway

"Chloe Celeste Hosterman you are everything to me, it's not been 6 months we've been together I  don't think but I know u could never live without you and I don't want to, you're so amazing and so if it's not to much to ask would you consider doing me the honour of saying you'll marry me?" He asks, his voice obviously beginning to shake either nerves

I was shaking, I could barely breathe, my heart kept missing a beat, I felt like I was in a dream, I just stared, I must've been staring for a while because he had to bring me back into reality

"Chloe? You okay there sweetie? Chlo?" He keep talking to me until I finally refocused on what was actually going on right now

"Y...yes, yes I....I'll marry you" I stumble over my own words

"You sure?" He asks, obviously not quite sure if he believes me

"Yeah, sorry I was just...shocked" not that shocked could begin to describe it but it was all I had

He slipped the ring on my finger, it fitted perfectly

"It's beautiful" I tell him and he smiles

"That's why my mom and sister were here" they were helping me pick out a ring" he explains

"Oh" I finally understand it but the something occurs to me "what about the extra doctors visits?" I ask

"They've got a new suggestion for a surgery, it's experimental so nothing ms certain and it's more risky but the chances of success are much higher"  he explains

"But I thought you didn't want to try surgery anymore, what changed your mind?" I ask but I feel I might know the answer

"Before I had no reason to want to be fixed but now I do, I want to be able to do all the things you're gonna wanna do throughout your life with you Chloe"  I knew it

"But I don't care, I just want to be with you, I don't care what we do as long as we're together" I remind him yet again

"But I want to give you more ham I can right now if it's possible for me too so I have to try" he tries to get me to understand

"And what exactly do you mean by more risky? I'm not losing you just because you want to do more because I'm happy now" I remind him

"I know you are but everything will be fine" he reassures me

"Okay, but you had better be coming back home because I intend for there to be a wedding" I tell him playfully

"Oh there will be, very soon my dear, very soon"
