The next morning Ryan and Destiny woke up when the alarm went off.    For once Destiny actually got a decent sleep.

"Good morning baby girl, how are you feeling?" Ryan asks kissing her head.

"Good morning baby, I am okay right now.   I am not dizzy or nauseous." Destiny says.

"That is good."'Ryan says.

"Yes so what all are we doing tonight?" Destiny asks.

"Bubba and Amanda, Will and Erin and Alex and Brittani are coming over to join you and me and Chase and Carrie in a game night." Ryan says.

"Okay sounds good I hope I can do it and not get sick." Destiny replies.

"I know.   But let's go.   You have a date." Ryan says.

"Yes to get poison." Destiny says.

They both get up and get dressed.     Carrie and Chase were going to help Mick with  the kids while Destiny got her treatment. 

They head out to the car.    They stopped at Dunkin and got breakfast.   Ryan drove them to the Cancer Center and parked.    They head inside.    They took Destiny back and got the IV in and the Chemo started. 

"So how is this going to work if I am supposed to get my chemo Friday but you have to be in Bristol?" Destiny asks.

"Easy baby.   You come get your chemo that morning and then Chase will fly us to Bristol that afternoon and I will qualify for the race." Ryan says kissing her head.

"Okay." Destiny says softly.

"Don't worry about it baby okay.    I am not going to miss this and we will make it work."  Ryan says.

"Okay baby." Destiny says..

Ryan and Destiny chat about anything and everything so she would forget the poison going into her veins.      Ryan starts to sing to her.

"You may think that I'm talkin' foolish
You've heard that I'm wild and I'm free
You may wonder how I can promise you now
This love that I feel for you always will be
But you're not just time that I'm killin'
I'm no longer one of those guys
As sure as I live, this love that I give
Is gonna be yours until the day that I die
Oh, baby, I'm gonna love you forever
Forever and ever amen
As long as old men sit and talk about the weather
As long as old women sit and talk about old men
If you wonder how long I'll be faithful
I'll be happy to tell you again
I'm gonna love you forever and ever
Forever and ever, amen
They say time takes its toll on a body
Makes the young girls brown hair turn gray
But honey, I don't care, I ain't in love with your hair
And if it all fell out, well, I'd love you anyway
They say time can play tricks on a memory
Make people forget things they knew
Well, it's easy to see, it's happenin' to me
I've already forgotten every woman but you
Oh, darlin', I'm gonna love you forever
Forever and ever amen
As long as old men sit and talk about the weather
As long as old women sit and talk about old men
If you wonder how long I'll be faithful
Well, just listen to how this song ends
I'm gonna love you forever and ever
Forever and ever, amen
I'm gonna love you forever and ever
Forever and ever, forever and ever
Forever and ever, amen." Ryan sings to her.

"
If I was a race car driver
Well, I'd be right behind her
I'd be doing 90 in a 55
Trying to change her mind
And if I was an airplane pilot
I wouldn't be 35 thousand
I'd  be drawing I'm sorry in the blue sky
Over isle 65

But if I was a bettin' man
I'd say she's halfway to Birmingham
On the phone with her mama n'em
Cussing me to hell an back again
I bet she's got a radio on
Singing something 'bout movin' on
I'd put a 100 on her never coming back again
If I was a bettin' man

If I was a radio DJ
Well, I know the songs that I'd play
They'd be about coming home and making up
And falling back in love

But if I was a bettin' man
I'd say she's halfway to Birmingham
On the phone with her mama n'em
And cussing me to hell an back again
I bet she's got a radio on
Singing something 'bout movin' on
I'd put a 100 on her never coming back again
If I was a bettin' man

If I was a bettin' man

If I was a bettin' man
I wouldn't have folded them winning hands
I wouldn't be sitting here drinkin' beer
Waiting on a second chance

If I was a bettin' man
I'd say she's halfway to Birmingham
On the phone with her mama n'em
And cussing me to hell and back again
I bet she's got a radio on
Singing something 'bout movin' on
I'd put a 100 on her never coming back again
If I was a bettin' man
I'd put a 100 on her never coming back again
If I was a bettin' man

A bettin' man." Ryan sings to her.

"Hmm Riley Green aka your twin." Destiny says.

"Yeah I have been told I look like him." Ryan says.

They finished the Chemo and took the IV out.    They then head out to the car.    They stoped and grabbed lunch on the way home.     They arrive and head inside.     Destiny spent some time with the little ones and then she went and laid down.


Later on that evening Destiny was woke to soft lips and kisses.

"Hey baby you coming down?" Ryan asks.

"What time is it?" Destiny asks.

"Almost 7 and the gang just got here." Ryan says. 

"Yeah I will come down." Destiny says.

"Okay baby girl,  there is pizza." Ryan says.

"Okay." Destiny replies.

Destiny got up and got dressed.     They then head down and sit at the table.

"How are you feeling Des?" Bubba asks.

"I am okay now.  Congratulations Bubba." Destiny says.

"Thanks Des." Bubba says.

They sat around and ate their pizza.       Finally they bust out the games and start playing.    

"What are we going to play first?" Chase asks.

"Jenga!" Bubba  says.

They play Jenga.   It was so much fun.     They played Monopoly, Cards of Humanity and a few others.     Mick had even convinced them to play Twister!    Now Thai was fun.

"Can we play Life before we call it a night." Ryan says.

Their played two rounds before calling it a night.

Later on after lots of laughter and fun one by one everyone started to leave.      It was a fun night but Destiny was exhausted.       After checking on Mick and the little ones.    She was happy they were sleeping.      She  heads to their room and climbs into bed.    Ryan comes back a little bit after and climbed into bed with her.

Destiny snuggled closer to Ryan.   

"Love you baby girl, Goodnight." Ryan says

"Goodnight, love you more." Destiny replies.

They both drift off into a much needed sleep.
