"Okay Molly, this is going to sting while we put the IV in but as soon as the sedative is introduced to your blood stream you will rest comfortably and we will wheel you down to the operating room." The nurse's voice was soothing and the orderly who was holding her hand while the IV was inserted was rubbing her hand as he held it, trying to reassure her. "there you are Molly, now let's give it some time to work, your fiancee is waiting anxioulsy to see you, should I send him in?"
"Please" Molly's voice cracked and her eyes were rimmed with tears. She was about to have her masectomy and she was frightened. She was not frightened about the prodedure, she was afriad that once her breats were gone Alex would be turned off and not want to touch her. His touch was the only thing that could soothe her and she knew she would never be able to go on without it.
"Chipper, baby open your eyes" AJ's soft hands ran over her face and his comforting brown eyes stared into hers and instantly put her at peace. "Are you ready for this?"
"I cannot turn back now" Molly said softly. "Will you be waiting for me when I get out of recovery?"
"Of course, Kim Ann and Skylar are with me, and Nick and the fellas are coming straight from the airport. Everyone who loves you is here for you baby" AJ kissed her forehead and touched his head to hers. The tender moment was interuppted by the orderlies who were there to take Molly to surgery. AJ kissed her lips "Baby I love you" He walked out fo the room, not looking back for he knew that if he did he would crumble in a heap on the floor.

"How is she?" Nick and the rest of the guys ran down the hall and into the waiting room. AJ was lying on the couch with his head in Kim Ann's lap, and his legs up on Skylar. The two women were trying to comfort him as best as they could. Kim Ann looked up at Nick, who she had not seen in a month and crooked her finger at him and smiled. Nick grinned and kissed her deeply on the lips. He felt AJ groan and stepped back "Sorry Bone"
"That would look funny on the death certificate ....death by penis suffocation" AJ grinned and stood up to hug his friends. "How did the rest of the promotional tour go?"
"Everyone was asking for you, and we brought back bags filled with gifts and letters for Molly" Howie hugged his friend tightly. "How is she?"
"I don't know, she has been in there for 4 hours and there is no word yet, I am scared" AJ whispered.
Nick walked over to AJ and took his hand, he looked at everyone and as if they knew what he wanted they all walked over, joined hands and Brian led them in prayer.

"Mr McLean?" The doctor walked into the room and removed his mask. "Molly is out of surgery and the early prognosis is that everything went well, very well actually. She is in recovery right now but you should be able to see her in a couple of hours" The doctor smiled as AJ shook his hand vigoursly.
"Thank you so much for taking special care of her, thank you" AJ looked around and grabbed the closest person and hugged Skylar tight "Sky she is going to be alright"
"We knew she would AJ, we knew she would be"

"I am going to go down to the coffee shop, does anyone want anything?" Kim Ann asked her friends. She took their orders and smiled at Nick who was reading The 3 Little Pigs to Hannah. "Do you want anything?"
Nick looked up from the book and smiled wickedly "Just you, but I will get that later, for now a DR Pepper will do"
Kim Ann smiled as their friends cracked up and she kissed him, pausing at his ear "We have a lot of lost time to make up for" and she walked away.
"She has got you whipped..Young Nicky has finally been tamed...good Lord and by an older woman" AJ teased his friend and laughed as he blushed.
"Can you imagine.. Nick and Kim Ann, oh my God just promise me that the two of you will never reproduce, I do not the think the world is ready for the spawn of the devil and his mistress" Kevin grinned as he took Hannah out of Nick's lap and took her to change her diaper.
"You guys, seriously I like her A LOT...I am going to tell her tonight...you should see what I have planned" Nick said smugly.
"Nick I cannot even imagine what you have planned for Kymmi...and I don’t think I want to..The two of you are dangerous on your own, as a pair you will probably be explosive" Howie muttered.
"She will be exploding alright" Nick grinned.
