***Hello, everyone! Here we are, last chapter. I didn't intend to have an even number of ten going in, it just kinda wound up being that way... Anyways, Grillby and Ember belong to Toby Fox, Cyra belongs to me, and let's go!
Chapter Ten: As A Family (Final)
The following day, Cyra had no more than a bit of a cough, so she was allowed to go into the hospital with Grillby. They went to stay the day with Ember.
And they were together, for once.
XxX
It was a strange sight for Ember.
She was accustomed to her mother causing tension for her father if they were in the same room, eventually making for an argument within a matter of minutes. But now, they could actually tolerate each other. More than that, even. Ember felt somewhat proud of herself.
That evening, Dr. Holland came in with a clipboard and a pen. "Alright. All you need is for Mom and Dad here to sign these release forms to be discharged. Also, there's a prescription that I called in, so be sure to go by the pharmacy and pick that up. Take it exactly as it instructs, or else you might be back here. And take it easy for the next few days," he instructed.
Grillby and Cyra both signed the form on the clipboard, then it was passed back to the doctor. He nodded his thanks before leaving.
"Freedom at last," Grillby said.
Ember smiled. "Thank God," she said. She got out of bed and wobbled a bit at first, but was otherwise steady. "They didn't let me up all that much," she clarified.
"Well, either way, I brought a change of clothes for you. I figured you would want it before we went home," Cyra said, taking said items out of her purse. Ember gladly took them and went to the bathroom to change in privacy.
"You keep everything in there, don't you?" Grillby asked.
"If I find the seventh human SOUL in here some day, I won't be all that shocked," Cyra shrugged. Grilly snorted. "I wouldn't be either," he said.
The two fell into a silence. Then, Grillby's hand went over Cyra's. "I'm glad you don't hate me any more," he said. "Let's just start with a kiss," Cyra replied. She leaned over and gave Grillby a kiss on the lips for once.
By the time they'd pulled apart, Ember was standing in her normal clothes. "Hey, guys? Do you think we can go out to eat?" she asked.
"Sounds good to me," Grillby said. "A little bit of a celebration, sure," Cyra said. So, they all three left the hospital.
As a family.
The End
***And there you have it. The end of... whatever this happened to be. And I say the line about finding the seventh human SOUL in a purse to my mom all the time, although she doesn't get it. Well, be sure to leave a review on the way out and I'll see you all in the next one! Bye!
