Researcher / Fangirl

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

One idea is where the Mc who has gotten the surgery to remove the disease but in very late stages of it. It was so important to them to remember their "summer fling" that was never really a fling to them. So desperately holding on until the threat of death is looming over them Cove, Moms, and everyone around the Mc almost begging them to finally give in and get the surgery. They eventually relent because while they're in love with Baxter their hurting their beloved friends and family.

When the Mc finally meets Baxter again after the 5 years when helping with the wedding planning for Jude and Scott the sheer confusion at Baxter and the random things he keeps mentioning like they should recognize/know what he's saying.

Randy and Terry mentioning that they had met him before but not much else. When they gave him their phone number they already had it saved in their phone. Mc going over the snippets of their history and depending seeing all the messages they had sent him over the years he was gone before the procedure.

Baxter being relieved but also wondering if they had truly moved on and forgotten him. Or maybe they're just ignoring it to keep some distance between them.

Another is where the Mc still has the disease. And is trying their best to help with the wedding but is constantly coughing up flower petals but refuses to let it fully stop them from helping. The pure shock and horror to come face to face with Baxter again.

How do you face the man that you know you're in love with after 5 years who you are actively dying for because you love them and have been unable to give up on him but also unable to reach him since then.

The idea of the Mc doubling over in a violent fit of coughing - black and white rose petals escaping their lips mixed with blood splatters to the ground since the Mc was caught so off guard.

Their already frail form doubled over humiliated, scared, embarrassed and completely torn on the correct action to take.

These are just like the bas beginning ideas! I have so many thoughts on variations of good and bad endings for both and such.
