When the kiss ends, he doesn't pull back, instead just leaning his forehead against hers, eyes closed. Just resting there for a moment, feeling much more at peace.
After a few moments there's a gentle knock on the door, and Ted opens his eyes to see Beard.
"I, uh, called Michelle and let her know you were in the hospital. Her and Henry are flying over as soon as they can."
There's an immediate relief apparent in Ted's body. The thought of getting to see Henry again was one of the things that kept him going. "Thanks, coach," Ted says softly and smiles at him, and Beard smiles back.
"Anything I can get for you guys?" Beard offers, looking at Joan as well.
