More Than One [18+]

34.

He softly gasps and starts crying again.

"Baby," I whisper. He sobs and hugs me more tightly. "Say it again."

I smile. "Owen, I love you." He smiles through his tears. "Now, that helps a lot."

Someone of the other guys cough. I turn to look at them, to see them all with a shocked expression. I giggle. "Ahw, poor babies. Are you being left out? I love you all too, don't worry."

Jordan sighs, "This was not the love confession I had in mind." He sits down on a chair.

I frown and get out of the bed, hearing Owen whimper. "I'll be back in a second," I whisper to him. He nods and keeps watching me.

I cup Jordan's face and make him look at me. "Jordan, I love you." A big smile breaks through his face.

I walk to the next person. Elijah. He watches me with big eyes when I cup his face, too. "Wha-" "Elijah, I love you," I smile. His eyes widen even more.

Next is Aaron. "Aaron, I love you," I whisper. He gasps, but smiles.

Last is Ethan. He was standing there a little overboard when I was saying it to the others, but when he sees me coming, he smiles out of excitement. "Yes, Ethan, I love you." He smiles broader and steals a kiss.

Giggling, I turn back to Owen. He reaches for me and I climb back on the bed. "Are you ready to go home? A week and a half here is enough, don't you think?"

His eyes widen and he takes my hands in his. "A week and a half? How did you not give up?" He sounds almost shocked.

I smile and trace his lips, which part. "I will never give up on you."

He swallows and look around, then looks down at his blanket. I see tears roll down his cheek again. He's in a cry mood today. Understandable.

"Are we going home?" I ask and he nods, taking my hand. I get out of the bed and he turns to do the same. "The doctor said you might be dizzy, because you lost a lot of blood."

He nods. "I can do this." I don't believe that, so I keep holding his hand while he slowly stands up. "Yeah, there you go," I smile when he stands. He gives me a small smile.

"C'mon, let's change."

After he changed into normal clothes and we handled the papers, we walk to the car. I support him, he hasn't much balance.

He brushes me off, but I smile and keep his hand in mine. And yes, he almost trips about a loose tile, but I catch him. "Thanks," he whispers, but seems ashamed.

But when I hear noise behind me, I see Elijah tripping over it too. I point to him, showing it to Owen. He smiles and chuckles, looking back forward. I look back to see Elijah standing up and winking at me.

Oh. He fake tripped so Owen wouldn't feel bad? That's actually really sweet.

We get in the car. Owen is at the right window, then me, and then Elijah. Jordan is driving and Aaron and Ethan are taking the other car.
