Atlas stiffened even though her voice was soft and barely a whisper in the room he heard it. He was afraid all of this might be a dream. He slowly opened his eyes and looked at her.
Her hazel eyes which he had missed so much these past two weeks were staring at him. Her lips curled up slightly.
"Atlas…..."
"Angel. Oh my…I can't believe this. You're awake…. awake finally….." He laughed as tears fell from his eyes. Nothing could explain his happiness at the moment. Fate was kind to him after all.
Meredith gazed at him, "I had a long dream. I was so scared" She rasped
"But then I heard you calling me. Telling me to keep fighting and I did."
Atlas brushed his fingers across her cheeks brushing the tears in the corner of her eyes.
"I was thinking…." He paused.
"What if I never get to tell you how much I love you under the moonlight… What if you never forgive me for not protecting you."
Meredith shook her head.
