Brian, catching the mischievous look on her face, pulled her close and kissed her deeply.

"I don't want chocolate. I want you!"

Rosalynn giggled. After making out for a bit, she gently pushed him away.

"Okay, I need to take this food to Hutton now. By the way, ask Betsy if she's eaten yet. If not, there's some soup I made that I can bring to her."

Brian arched an eyebrow. "For her? You're quite the caring one today."

"She saved your life, didn't she?"

With those words lingering, Rosalynn slipped into the kitchen.

Brian caught the hint of jealousy in her voice, finding some solace in it.

He reached for his phone, got Betsy's number from Edwin, and dialed.

After two rings, Betsy answered.

"Hey?"

"It's Brian Hughes. You still at the hospital?" Brian's voice carried a nonchalant tone.

"Mr. Hughes? Yep, still here."

“Have you had anything to eat?"

"Not yet," Betsy replied casually.

"Alright, I'll swing by later," Brian stated matter-of-factly before ending the call.

Betsy stared at her phone, a mix of emotions flickering in her eyes.

Was Brian suggesting they have lunch together? Maybe he was interested in her after all. Her heart skipped a beat at the thought.

With a quick brush of her hair, Betsy's eyes lit up with anticipation. Should she dress up a bit to catch his eye?

Rosalynn brought the food to Wragos Hospital. Brian decided to forgo rest and accompany her.
