"You may kiss the groom," says Stalker Boy, with a smile on his face. "Forever," Brett says kissing me. I look around and everyone on the floor is dead. My mom, dad, Ashley, Donna, John, Dylan, Emily, and the rest of our relatives, gunshot wounds on their foreheads. "No," I whisper to myself. The sound of another gunshot startles me, I turn and see Brett fall to the floor. "And they all lived happily ever after," Stalker Boy says, he loads the rifle. "Don't do this," I whisper, closing my eyes and then he shoots me.

I slowly open my eyes and look around me. Brett's family and my family are around me, even Milo! I pet him and he purrs. Where the hell am I? Right, Stalker Boy and his fucking partner put me in here. My mom is weeping into a handkerchief. My dad has his arms around her. "Where is Brett? Where is he?" I look around, where is he? I need him. Everyone turns and my mother sinks to her knees, sobbing more and more. "Where is Brett?" I ask again, I fucking need him! Why isn't no one telling me? I need to know if he really is okay. "Relax, he's sleeping right over there," Donna points to the end of the room. Ashley, Emily, and Dylan move out of the way and there he is, sleeping peacefully, next to Tasha, Maria, Tiffany, and Kelly. Other people from work are here, but I don't know their names. He has some sort of a cast on his left arm, my poor boy. I immediately relax and look at everyone around me. "You're the hero," says my mom. "If it weren't for you-" she weeps into the handkerchief. "Mom, we are alright and that's what matters," I say with a smile to show that we really are okay. "It was a close call, you were losing blood," says the nurse behind Donna. She checks on my bandages and I wince. "Easy now. You're okay. You should see the media outside waiting to speak to the modern day Super Man," says the nurse with a smile, her tag reads Olivia. Once she's done with the bandages she smiles at me and carries on with her daily duties. "You should be ready to go by tomorrow," my dad says with a grin on his face, I can't help, but to smile. "Maria, is he awake?" I hear Brett in the back and everyone turns to him, except for Donna. "Thank you," she mouths at me and a tear rolls down her face, I smile. "Ya está despierto. Yes, he's awake," I hear Maria, I love Maria. I close my eyes and when I open them Brett is at my side with Maria, Kelly, and the other people from work. I feel bad for not knowing their names. Brett's family and my family move aside and now I'm surrounded by the Grand Lux Cafe crew. "You saved us," Brett says holding my hand, I want to kiss him. His clothing is dirty and torn. "Mijo dios está siempre contigo. God is always with you," Maria says stroking my cheek, a tear rolls down my face. "Thank You Maria, I will forever thank you for being in my life. Brett, I saved us because I love you," tears roll down my cheeks, I look around at everyone. "I don't know all of your names, but I thank you so much for visiting me. I love you all," I say, now I'm crying. "Oh, baby," Brett bends to kiss me, we kiss passionately for about two minutes, we are both breathless. "I don't know what I would do without you, Brett," I say to him, and he kisses me once more.
