I have a feeling this was more than just a seizure , but the nurses never leave his charts in the room.
Swallowing, I move closer and slide my hand into his.

“I feel like we were just starting to?—”
Tears prick at my eyes, and I can’t even finish the sentence.
I kiss his lips and leave before Matt or his father returns.
