Bye-Bye Jerk, Hello Mr. Right by Rosie Steppe

The answer was easy. "Nope. Not a chance."

Yuna frowned. "That won't do. When Hayden gets back, I'm making him marry you right away. Once you're married, no one can steal you."

Such a romantic. She didn't know there's a little thing called divorce.

But I just smiled and played along. "Fine by me. I've been waiting on that proposal forever."

"Really?" Yuna's face lit up. She whipped out her phone and sent a voice message to Hayden, her excitement almost contagious. "Hayden, Keira's just waiting for you to propose! Hurry up and come back already!" I couldn't help but laugh at how ridiculously adorable she was.

But after hitting send, Yuna sighed. "Why isn't he answering? What if something happened to him?"

Her words made my heart do this weird little flip, but I couldn't let her see that. I forced a grin and shrugged. "Maybe he got swept off his feet by some gorgeous lady along the way."

Yuna shot me a playful look. "Not a chance. Hayden's had like, a million admirers, and he's never cared about any of them. He's totally into you!"

We kept joking around for a bit until the hospital breakfast cart rolled in. I stuck around while Yuna ate, but once she was settled in with the caregiver, I headed out to meet Lena. Lena, as promised, handed over the backup phone with a brand-new number.
