The New Family Member

Jack leaned closer to her and kissed her cheek,"i can't say, the doctors said your tumor is getting worse and their not sure they can operate on it, " he knelt beside the bed and gently laid his hand on her arm," I don't want to lose you Anna." he let a few tears drop, but managed to hold back the others he didn't want to her to see him weak
 
Anna looked over at Jack and smiled weakly. She took her hand and wiped the tears away. "You won't lose me Jack. I promise I'll fight till the end." She told him and smiled. "Forever okay? I'll forever love you." She told him and smiled. Her hand had gone limp and fell to the side. The machine for her heart beeped and the line went flat. Her lung had collapsed yet again.

Jack had started to smile and then he heard the beep he called for the nurse and hit the button, when they came in a moment later one took him and kept him outside the last thing he saw of Anna before he went back to the waiting room was the doctors trying to jolt her back. When he arrived at the waiting room he explained what happen to Anna. When he was done he told them to head home and reluctantly they did. He stayed in the waiting room weeping silently
 
The nurse came out and motioned for Jack to come back to the room. Anna laid there asleep. They had luckily brought her back. She looked so weak and tired. She looked like she could just pass any moment. She slowly opened her eyes and smiled softly at Jack. "Don't cry. You need to stay strong for the rest of the family." She told him. Exhaustion in her voice.

Jack sat down beside her and smiled," I'm just glad your alive. You gave us a scare there you know." jack held her hand again she looked so tired he contemplated leaving so she could rest. Then he asked," do you think they will let me stay here with you." he didn't want to leave Anna alone here. He felt he need to be beside her as much as possible
 
"I'm not sure.... You can ask but if not I'll be fine I promise. Forever remember?" She told him and smiled weakly. She closed her eyes for a moment and then turned in her side where she was looking at Jack. She smiled and finally fell asleep, her hand never letting go of his.

Jack didn't move without letting her hand go he kissed her again. He smiled and leaned his head back, smiled and went to sleep. His hand never leaving hers. For once in his life he felt like he was loved by someone and he loved them right back. Everything was right in his world, only if Anna was better it would be perfect
 
The next morning Anna woke up early and smiled as she saw Jack next to her and their hands still connected. She was glad. She was terrified that they were going to tell him to leave but obviously they didn't. She yawned and turned on the tv.

Jack woke up a little bit after Anna and gently squeezed her hand to be sure she was there. He looked over at her and said," good morning" how you feeling. Better I hope." he smiled warmly and kissed her hand and gently rubbed it with his thumb
 
"Just a bit better. Not all perfect but getting there." She said and smiled as he kissed her hand. She smiled once more and the nurse brought her her breakfast. "Did you want anything sir?" She asked as she glanced at their hands. Anna pulled her hand away and sighed.

Jack looked up at the nurse and smile," can I just get a muffin and a coke please miss." he then raised Anna's bed up and brought her table over and removed the covering of her food." don't expect me to do this often when we get back home." he grinned at Anna and chuckled a bit. He then sat back in his chair and waited for his muffin and coke.
 
The nurse came back and handed Jack the muffin and coke. "Here you go sir." She said and then walked out. Anna laughed softly and nodded. "I won't rely on you to do everything." She said and then began to eat her food slowly.

Jack took the food and said thank you. He then looked over at Anna and smirked," I bet you'll need me alot more now." he chuckled and ate his muffin and slowly took a sip of his coke. He then got up and changed the TV Chanel to the news and sure enough there was a story about Anna and her collapse." maybe the next crowd at school will be yours." he grinned and sat back down
 
"I don't want that to happen." Anna said and yawned as she continued to eat. "I don't do well with people if you didn't know that." She said and shrugged and took a sip of her juice. "How's mom dad and monica?" She asked and looked over at Jack.

Jack looked at her and said," they were scared but I told them you will be find and I told them to go home and that id stay with you." he bent down gently and kissed her cheek and laid down next to her on the bed." you know you worry to much." he chuckled and watched the TV
 
Anna smiled and then nodded softly. "Okay good. Didn't want them to worry." She said and then laughed softly and nodded. "Yeah it's a habit sorry." She told him and smiled once again but then continued eating.

Jack couldn't help but smile but when he heard the sound of foot steps coming in there direction he quickly sat back in the chair just in time to see their mom, dad, and Monica walk in and Monica's face lit up when she saw Anna and ran over and hugged her
 
Anna smiled as she saw Monica and she ran over to hug her. She hugged Monica right and their parents smiled. "How you feeling Princess?" They asked and Anna smiled. "Better then yesterday I promise." She said and Monica sat with her on the bed.

Jack looked at his parents," hey mom, hey dad did you guys miss us last night?" he laughed and grinned a bit, just glad to see them and to see everyone was alive and well
 
Anna laughed softly and the two parents looked at their soon and smiled. "Of course we did. We promise there will be a nice home cooked dinner when you guys return." They told them and Monica nodded. "I'll help." She said. Anna smiled bigger then ever before. She was happy to finally have a family who loved her

Jack smiled and was glad to have this family even if they weren't blood and he really love Anna, he was just glad he didn't have to worry about much anymore he then looked over at his family and said," I love you guys." he had never told that to anyone except Anna and he grinned as he said this
 
"We love you guys too." Their mom said and pulled Jack in a hug and everyone else followed, well everyone but Anna of course. "Blood doesn't make a family." Monica said and Anna smiled. "Love does." She finished and Monica nodded and hugged Anna tight.

Jack hugged her back and then pulled away to go over to Anna and whisper to here so no one else could hear," I love you most of all." he then let her go and asked his parents if they could watch Anna for a while, he need to grab a few things from there house if he would be the one staying there. When they said ok he turned to the door and left, but looked back once to wave goodbye then he was gone
 
Anna smiled brightly when Jack said what he did. She continued to talk with her family and even was able to sneak a sip of coke even when she wasn't supposed to. She was enjoying herself really. She didn't want this to end.

Jack came back about an hour later, he had a bag for his laptop, charger, and a change of clothes. " ok you vultures I think its my turn." he chuckled and sat his stuff in the corner beside his chair and leaned against the wall. He grabbed his coke and took a sip of it and tasted Anna's lips, he smiled and looked at her, and gave her a knowing grin
