Mary Jane let out what was meant to be a laugh, though it came out as a sob, lips pressing into a thin line as she lowered her head. She'd thought of that conversation, of course, replayed it over and over in her head as she sat beside him -- and spent more time than she ought to have thinking about the part where he'd said he wanted to marry her -- but there was a bizarre sort of relief in hearing him talk about it now. Somehow, it made all the more real the fact that he really was going to pull through this.
"You really had me scared for a while there, you know," she murmured, exhaling as slowly as she could in an attempt to get herself back under control. Even in doing so, she doubted that was going to happen anytime soon. "I don't know what I would have done if..." She trailed off there, not wanting to continue when she didn't have to. It was hard enough thinking about the possibility of him dying without vocalizing it, too.
