"I love you, too, Tyler." Cass smiled a little. A few minutes later, the nurses helped Cass into a wheelchair and then from there to the car after moving it out there. They took all of her things and put it in the back seat.
Cass was now in the passenger seat, unable to feel her legs, and it frightened her. Even if she could morph, she couldn't with all the people standing there. The wheelchair was lifted into the backseat. Cass leaned her head back and felt relaxed for once. She forgot about morphing and thought, Nothing matters to me as long as Ty is alive and well. So I'm content...

Ty drove home calmly, not worried in the least bit. After all, they'd go home, Cass would morph and demorph to heal, and they'd just go on about their lives, right? No...Ty still had that image in his mind. He couldn't imagine what would've happened if he hadn't have gotten free in time.
He shook himself free of those thoughts as he pulled into the driveway, parking and helping Cass out of the car. "Okay, Mom. Time to get better," Ty lightly said with a wink.

Cass kept her eyes focused outside, watching everything go by. Right then, Cass was in a state of shock. Three days? She had been out for that long? That had never happened to her before.
Ty helped her out of the car and she had to majorly lean on Ty for support, thanks to her legs being paralyzed. They had gone inside so that no neighbors could see her morph. She focused on her legs first as they changed into snow leopard legs. She decided to morph her face too, until everything was healed and she was standing on her own.
Cass looked around with her eyes. "It's good to be ho-" Her eyes looked at the ring that was still on her left hand ring finger. She brought it up and calmly tried pulling it off. It wouldn't come off, and she felt her knees begin to shake as emotion swelled over her. Jay had broken her heart...again...but this was different. He had not only broken it, he shattered it into tiny little pieces. He had even tried killing the-her son. "Oh, my god..." Her knees buckled as she broke down in tears and was visibly shaking....it was all her fault...

Ty helped Cass inside and watched her morph and demorph. As soon as she was standing on her own, he went into the kitchen for a sandwich, since the only thing he'd had in three days was some hospital Jello. While he was at it, he made a second sandwich for his mom.
When he got back to the living room, Cass was on her knees, in tears, shaking and pulling at the ring. "Oh God...." he whispered to himself. With all Cass had been through, this was the last thing she needed. He went over to her side. "Mom? You okay?"

Cass heard Ty and she tried holding back the pain and tears the best way she could. "N-no..." It didn't work as she pulled on the ring again. It was stuck and she didn't know what to do. She didn't want it. "I-It w-w-" She felt helpless then. Like nothing she did was worth anything.
Without looking at Ty, and still struggling with the ring, Cass said, "I-I'm s-s-o-o s-s-orry..." She didn't have the strength to pull on the ring anymore, as she let her hands fall and had her emotional breakdown. In a barely audible voice, she said, "I-it's my fault, and I don't d-deserve y-you..."

"It's okay," Ty said softly, but his eyes flashed when Cass said she didn't deserve him. Ty spoke with a firmness Cass had never heard him use before as he gently lifted her head to look him in the eye, kneeling down to her level
"No. NEVER say that. You've helped me through so much, no matter what kind of trouble I've caused. I don't deserve YOU. It's not your fault, understand? The fact that people are total jackasses doesn't make it your fault. "
He wrapped his arms around her comfortingly. "I'll never stop loving you, no matter what. Remember, you didn't do anything wrong. Last I checked, having a heart was a good thing...."

Cass looked at Ty, eyes swollen from the tears, tears still going down her face, her nose red, and she looked an absolute mess. Cass shook her head when Ty said that he didn't deserve her. "That's not true..." though she couldn't say anymore as he moved on.
Cass felt his arms go around her and she leaned into Ty's chest, still sobbing. "I-I was an easy...t-target..." She wrapped her arms around him and said, "Y-You were right....I-I should've l-l-listened t-t-o you..." She buried her face in his chest letting go of all of her emotions.

Ty ran his hand through Cass' hair. "No, you weren't an easy target. Easy targets don't fight back. And like I've said before, you care, and there's nothing wrong with that. Being a trusting person is a good thing."
Then, to comfort her, Ty started singing the first appropriate song that came to mind:
"Can you feel the pains in life? Wrapped around you like they're chains Restricting all your dreams Do you wonder if there is a way?
A way to set you free Set you free
So tell me all your dreams Tell me all your fears and what you're longing for the most It's not another way that'll end up the same for it's under my control
Do you feel the winds of change Soon this weight will fall away And take you to a place Only found through these winds of change
A breeze that's new and free New and free
So tell me all your dreams Tell me all your fears and what you're longing for the most It's not another way that'll end up the same for it's under my control
I'll be the one who you can cry to The one who will give you wings I will give wings "

Cass listened to the song as she lay there and closed her eyes to the sound. Cass knew that he was right... She just couldn't believe it had happened to her. Then, her eyes snapped open.
"You sing? I didn't know you did that..." She looked at him, and started to smile. Ty always knew how to make her feel better...

Ty finished singing as Cass' head lay on his chest. He blushed when she mentioned him singing. "Um...yeah," he said, his face a beet red. "I'm usually kind of...shy about it."
Looking down at her hand, he grabbed her hand standing her up, and walked into the kitchen. "Let's get this off of you," he said gently as he held her hand over the sink, squirting dishwashing liquid between the ring and her ring finger. Then, he tugged on it gently as he ran warm water over it. Pretty soon, the ring was off of her finger and in his hand.
Turning off the water, he threw his arms around her. "Mom, nothing on this earth can possibly make me lose my trust in you, you know that?"

Cass grinned. "You're so cute when you blush, you know that?" She said, "I think it's sweet. I love your voice."
Cass followed Ty into the kitchen, never letting go of his hand. She watched as Ty did his magic when it came to rings, and soon it was off. She looked at her hand and felt like she was different. She was different..
Ty threw his arms around her, and she held him close. "I know that, baby. It goes both ways." She leaned back and ran her fingers through his hair before going back into their embrace. "You're my sweetheart."
