Allison gently reached out and stroked Peyton's head, her voice soft and warm. "You're just the cutest."

She was sitting with Peyton, chatting away when Joshua's phone buzzed. He gave Allison a quick wave with his phone, signaling he needed to step out for a call.

Once Joshua left, it was just Allison and Peyton in the hospital room. Peyton seemed on the verge of saying something several times, but was clearly holding back.

A wave of emotion washed over Allison, making her eyes misty.

"Of course, sweetheart. You're already adorable, and with a little makeup, you'll look even more stunning."

Peyton smiled, dimples appearing on her pale cheeks. "Really?"

"Absolutely!" Allison nodded, her voice tinged with emotion. "I'll bring my makeup kit tomorrow and give you a lovely makeover."
