♥ CHAPTER THIRTY''EIGHT♥

Elisabeth.

Disbelieving, Lorenzo runs to me and hugs me tightly.

'' My love, you finally woke up. He kisses my shoulder and remains wrapped in my arms.

“L''L''Lorenzo… I can't breathe right.

Quickly release me.

'' Sorry my love. '' He smiled. “I still can't believe you're finally awake and here with us, alive.

I give him a smile.

“Yes, I finally woke up. I look at the others, who are still frozen in place. "Aren't you even going to give me a hug?"

They blink and quickly come to me, the four of them hug me tight.

“Elisa!” You woke up! Thomas kisses my forehead.

'' Yes, Tom '' after five years.

Christopher kisses the tip of my nose.

“We miss you so much, my love. You have no idea how much we miss you.

I smile at that.

“I missed you too. A lot, even.

Dylan places a kiss on my shoulder and Alex on my forehead.

'' It was a great torment to be without you in our life. Dylan says, smirking. “Now we've got her back and we're not going to let her go again.

I run my thumb across her cheek.

'' I will never leave again, you are my home and my everything, I want to be with you forever. '' I say sincerely, making them smile.

'' And we also want to be with you, we will do everything to make you happy.

“I'm already happy with you. Even sleeping, I always heard the voice of each one of you and I wanted many times to open my eyes, but they were too heavy for that.

They all nod.

"How much longer will you be here?" Lorenzo asks.

“The doctor said I'm going to have to stay here for at least a few weeks, until physical therapy gets me back on my feet. You know, I woke up not feeling my legs.

They widen their eyes.

'' As? The collective scream throbs in my head.

'' Lower your voice! I'm fine, that's normal, because I've been in a coma all these years. My body needs to get used to moving again. I explain and they sigh in relief.

“That's good, at least it's nothing serious. I thought I was paralyzed,” murmurs Christopher.

'' You are rebuked, in the name of Jesus Christ.

Everyone laughs and I bite my lip nervously.

"Is there a problem, love?" Dylan asks.

“I wanted to ask something. “I'm feeling very anxious right now.

“Sure, ask what you want. Christopher says.

I inhale deeply.

“Did you guys hook up with anyone these five years?” '' Released at once, already feeling my heart sink.

They look at each other and I raise a questioning eyebrow.

'' No. '' They answer together and firmly.

I exhale, relieved.

“We didn't want that to happen again. Christopher says.

'' All good. Even if you were with someone, it would be fine with me, because we weren't dating, in fact, and you were free of me, because you didn't know if I was going to wake up or not. You had more to enjoy life, because you were not dead. ’ They all look at me sadly. '' What it was? ' I ask, not understanding.

'' Anything. Just thinking about how amazing you are. Alex smiles.

I shrug.

“Someone has to be.

Laughter spreads through the room.

“We really miss you a lot. Lorenzo adds.

'' Me too. Now tell me how you are. Are you still living here? ' I ask, curious.

“No, we moved to Italy, we're mob leaders there.

I open my mouth in shock.

“Wow, Italy?” Wow, I never thought you guys would move there one day, I'm also surprised to learn that the men I love are mobsters, what a discovery. '' They look at each other and then start laughing, leaving me confused. “What is it now?”

“We…we're just surprised because we never told you this,” Dylan says, his laughter breaking.

“I thought you were some kind of drug dealers, not mobsters.

“Doesn't that bother you? Thomas asks.

'' Not even a little. If I didn't care that they were drug dealers, imagine now finding out I was wrong? In fact, I think it's chic, you leaders of the Italian mafia '' I answer, sincere and proud, making them look at me with love.

“Really, we are very lucky to have you as our wife. Dylan comes over and kisses my cheek tenderly. “When you leave this place, we will officiate our relationship. You are going to be our wife, our future wife.

I hug him tightly, feeling immensely happy.

“I'm going to love this, I love each and every one of you.

“We love you too, my love. Lorenzo breaks into a huge smile, his eyes sparkling with passion.

“Fuck, I'm so happy to have our woman back in our arms. Christopher celebrates.

I smile big.

'' And I'm also very happy to have the men in my life back, I really want to leave this place and go with you wherever that may be.

Dylan laughs, fluttering into my shoulder.

“Fuck, Elisa, you know how to make a man feel loved with those words of yours.

'' I only speak the truth, so you don't have to worry about anything, because I will always be honest with you.

I feel him stay a little while, but then he relaxes and places another kiss on my shoulder.

“We'll be honest with you, too. '' Guarantees, making me nod.

Soon, the door was opened by the nurse.
