Sully knew it was a mood swing, but he didn�t know how long this particular mood swing would last.  So instead of talking back he decided to just let her shout at him while he stood still.  He watched Michaela as she kept screaming, and then her screams turned to sobs.  He looked up and saw tears running down her cheeks.

�Oh Sully� I�m sorry.  I didn�t meant anything that I just said.�

�I love you so much.�

�Shh�It�s OK love.  I�m here for ya.�

Chapter 15

�What was all that about?�  Canice asked Anne.

�Hank just proposed to Ashley!�

�What?!�

�I took her to the cafeteria so she could see there�s nothing between Hank and Ashley and when we got there�Well�we heard him propose.�

Dawn and Canice looked at Anne in disbelief.  Just then they heard Ashley and Hank down the hall.  They were laughing and joking, but that soon stopped when they saw their faces. 

�What�s going on? What�s that look on your faces for?� Ashley asked her friends as she put her things down.

�Well�� began Dawn.

�Thing is��

�The thing is Helene heard you propose to Ashley.�

�What?!� Hank and Ashley asked in unison.

Anne explained everything that had happened to them and as soon as she was finished Hank took off running.  Ashley on the other hand was left behind to explain what had actually happened. 

Helene was crying so hard and was in no state of mind to drive.  Here she was thinking that she had actually found �the one� only to discover otherwise.  She was walking in the park when her cell phone began to ring. 

�Hello?�

�Helene�It�s me Hank.�

�What do you want?�

�I want to talk to you.�

�Is that right?�

�Yes.�

�Well all I have to say to you is Congratulations.  I hope you and Ashley are very happy together.�

�Helene you have it all wrong.�

Helene didn�t feel like talking to him anymore so she hung up the phone.  Hank felt his heart break.  �How could this have happened?�

He knew he was going to have to do some hard work to get her back.  He went back to the hospital and finished his shift.  Then he headed out to pick up some things before making his way to Helene�s house.

He knocked on the door and heard Helene turn the knob.  He knew she was probably still going to be mad so he left his package on the doorstep.  Helene opened the door and looked around to see who had knocked.  She was about to go back in when she saw a package.  She picked it up and read the note attached to it.

My Dearest,

Please meet me at the park.

Yours Forever,
Hank
