Rosalie snapped back to reality, and shook her head. "It's nothing. I'll be right back."

She turned and walked away, with Theodore watching her retreating figure.

Back in the hospital room, Rosalie explained to Sebastian that she needed to attend a wedding. She conveniently left out that Theodore would be accompanying her.

Given Sebastian's current condition, mentioning Theodore's name would require further explanation. Rosalie feared such a revelation might be too much for Sebastian to handle, especially if he believed that al his memories were incorrect.

"Seb, I'll try to be back as quickly as I can. Rest well, and if you need anything, just give me a call."

"It's alright, Rose. Just go. It's actually nice to see you busy with your own life," Sebastian replied, settling back into his pillows.

Rosalie tucked him in. "I'll go now. I'll bring you some candy when I return."

Sebastian chuckled. "Honey, do you think of me as a child?"

"Yep, I'm treating you like one. So, you'd better grow up quickly."

Sometimes Rosalie would tease him, and it would always make them both smile.

Sebastian nodded. "I'll grow up quickly and be a real husband for you."
