Looking forward to the future

A week has passed, Belle has been given all clear and was allowed to check out of the hospital but she would have to keep her wound clean and out of water.

Time to leave all behind and start anew.

Feeling all excited, Belle started to pack up her stuff and kept looking out of the window for Joe. He would be arriving anytime soon. She was so bored in the hospital. Not that she didn't like the people there. The doctors and nurses were nice but she was confined to her bed and 4 walls.

Turning around excitedly, she heard footsteps walking into her room. Surprised, she came face to face with a bouquet of roses, big enough to cover her whole body.

"Hello!! It's me! You look shocked to see me".

"Hey Jay, I wasn't expecting you. Thought Joe was coming. Hmm, where is he? He is never late!"

"Actually Joe couldn't come. He got caught up, so he sent me instead. I hope you are not disappointed. Oh, sorry.. I got carried away, here these are for you."

"Oh okay.. erm, so can we go? I'm dying to get out of here. Do you have any plans? If not, could we go grab some food? I'm dying for a cheeseburger. Please?" Belle looked at Jay with her puppy eyes.

"Haha, your order is my command, my lady. Let's go".

Jay smiled and picked up Belle's bag while watching her skip her way down the hall. He was one step in. He promised himself that he would wait for Belle until she's ready. Suddenly he realised Belle was having too much movements. Afraid that she might break her sutures, he ran after her.

"Belle! Wait for me! Don't run so fast. You haven't fully recovered! I'm not going to buy you your cheeseburger if you don't stop running. Wait for me".

The nurses started giggling. It was a really funny sight. A super good looking man, running after a girl, screaming at her while carrying her luggage and a large bouquet of roses.
