We pulled away from each to catch our breaths. I caught the glint in his eyes, and I could swear mine matches his excitement too. But then his facials changed “I mean it Lizzy”, he said cupping my face in his hands. “You're going to tell me everything that goes on with on. I want to know why you're sad, and I wanna put a smile on your face always if I can,he smirked and I smiled, leaning my mouth in for a kiss. He smiled and planted a passionate kiss on my lips, unlike the first which was intense. This one was slow, passionate, and I couldn't help but smile in his lips “Awwwwwwww” we heard a voice and we jerked away, and our heads whipped to where it came from “What the héll Mimi?” I cursed, hiding my now burning cheeks in my palm from the embarrassment I was feeling “Oh, no need to be embarrassed, that was beautiful” she smiled. I turned to Evans, and he had a smirk on,not helping my case at all “What are you guys doing here” I finally asked, dropping my hands from my face “Henry called me” she replied, turning to Henry who had a smile on “Good job bro” he bro-hugged Evans, pulling apart “Can't believe you did it” he said, patting his back “Can't believe you guys were watching”, Evans frowned at him “I had to” you guys weren't exactly quiet, and people were beginning to complain. Plus you punched my wall” he turned to look at the wall, but there wasn't any sign that said it was punched, but I'm pretty sure, Evans' knuckles would be throbbing, although he's not showing it “Sorry bro” Evans smirked “Wait a minute” I broke their bonding. “You knew he didn't forget me?” I turned to Henry, a frown now on my face “Of course, he can't keep it away from me even if he tried. Plus he needed my help with the plan. My mouth swung open “I cant believe This. So you knew all these while?” Henry nodded. “Did you know too? I turned to Mimi and she squirmed, immediately my gaze landed on her, answering my question without she saying it aloud “Oh my God Mimi” I breathed out “In my defence, I didn't know at first, they only told me so I can play along, so you would believe it” she said,hiding a bit at Henry's back, like she's hiding from my glare “I cannot believe you all connived to do that to me. I thought I was going to loose my mind” I spat angrily, but Mimi left Henry's side to come hold my hands, ignoring my glare “Liz” she called “Although I wasn't in support at first, I thought about it and had to agree with Evans. He loves you, and you not opening up to us is wrong. We're family, we're going to be here for you no matter what, and hate to see you suffer alone. You can't keep hiding things from us. That's why I agreed to it. It was a way to show you your error. I'm sorry we did it, but it was the only way. Plus I didn't think he could do it” she glanced at Evans, before turning back to me “He was miserable through it all, he just puts up a front in when he sees you. You should see him when he's alone, or with us “Hey....” Evans tried to say something but was cut off my Henry “She's right bro, you were a dead man walking” Henry added and both him and Mimi started laughing, and I joined them “I love you too” I went and pecked him in the lips, turning his frown upside down “Can't wait to tell the others” Mimi clasped her hands together in excitement *********** Eight months later *********** “Hi mom” I hugged and greeted her, as soon as she entered She got another job as a nurse, since she loved being one, and went to meet her old friends at her former workplace. They couldn't believe she was alive, and we're all happy to see her, though she was no longer with them. The hospital wrote a good recommendation for her because of her diligence while working with them, and she couldn't be happier going back to working. And this time, her family accepted her choice to be in Nigeria, and also sent their apologies to me. I just couldn't be happier I have her once again, although we still avoided the topic of my father “Hi sweetie” she responded, hugging me back. “Hi Evans” she hugged him, and he did also, patting at her back before pulling away to stand beside me and planted a kiss on my temple. I didn't miss the smile on my mom's face and it made my stomach flutter, cause she accepted him like the rest of the family did. They are already taking him as a son-in-law, which was ridiculous, because we haven't thought about that. We're just enjoying each others company for now “Alright alright, she's coming” Michael yelled from the front door, and everyone went to their rehearsed settings “She walked through the front door, and Steven's (Mimi's older brother) adorable twin girls sprang up from their seat giggling, and held out the banner which read “Will you be the mother of my kids?” and then Henry came to kneel, (one knee to the ground and one bent) in front of her, pulling out a red velvet box, opened it, and in it was was a diamond engagement ring. “Will you marry me?” he asked and her hands flung to her mouth, unable to hide the excitement. She turned to us all, and we all had expectant grin on our faces, before she turned back to him and nodded “Yes”. He slid the ring on her finger, and pulled her in for a hug. There were cheers and hugs all around. Mimi's mom wiped, her tear of joy and hugged her daughter, and pulled me in also to the hug. She let go, and her gaze went to a smirking Michael at our back, and immediately her smile fell, and we knew why “When will you marry?” we all chorused laughing “Soon ladies, soon” he replied smiling “Hi” I greeted Evans, though the congratulations were still going on, and he pulled to a side, as we watched the happy couple “Hi” he smiled, planting a kiss on my lips, before pulling away, a smile tugging on his lips “They look perfect together” I Mused, he nodded in agreement, and as if knowing we were talking about them, the couple turned and waved at us smiling before turning back to my mom “But he had to go over the top?” I turned to ask Evans “Yea, he wanted the whole family around” he replied “You're not going to do this” I gestured to the crowd “Right?” “Nah, it's overrated. Plus I don't know if you've noticed but we're not a normal couple” he smiled at me “Yea” I smiled, snaking my arms round his torso “Our love is strange” You had cancer, and then a crazy ex-girlfriend. Then I had a psycho ex fiancée, got abducted, and saved by my new friend who is now in prison. And all because we were in love. And we broke up twice and still found a way to each other “I hear third times a charm” he pressed his lips on mine “I agree” I smiled, and rested my face on his chest and pressed my ears to his chest, as I hear the gentle beats of his heart, it made me smile, cause it was music to my ear. I like this right here, all the people I care about healthy and happy. I couldn't have asked for better ***THE END*** 8 Likes |

The last chapter was so corny, but don't blame me. I'm a sucker for love So, it's the end guys, love all my readers, you guys are all amazing. I'm just so happy I actually finished this, still can't believe it. So glad you guys made me finish it. Thank you all And here's a secret, this story was supposed to be one crazy story, cause I didn't know what I was doing. Just had an idea for the beginning and the end, everything in between just comes to me when I start typing. Really crazy And lastly, there'll be an epilogue, not sure when, but pretty soon. That been said, *Bows dramatically This was fun 15 Likes |

Finally!! i got to the current page. My sister please pardon me o, I'm sure you understand. Wow!!! Their love is really strange, God they went through a lot. Communication is very important in every relationship, i just wonder why some people choose to bottle up their pains instead of letting it out, claiming we are protecting our loved ones, but I'm glad they had their happy ending. Great story Lily, may God increase your wisdom, may your source(s) of inspiration never runs dry in Jesus name. Well done, God bless! 1 Like |
