Keeley had watched five episodes of her show and Aaron hadn't woken up. She turned off the TV and went to go check on him, feeling uneasy. He didn't actually die, did he?!
Dinah meowed and emerged from under a piece of furniture before following her up the stairs to Aaron's room. She opened the door as quietly as she could and noticed he was out like a light.
She leaned close to his face to make sure he was still breathing. He looked awfully pale. He was definitely breathing…did he have a fever?
She laid a gentle hand against his forehead and accidentally brushed back his hair. No fever.
A small nostalgic smile appeared on her face. Ignoring the black eye, Aaron looked much more peaceful in his sleep. Younger. She could almost believe he was the teenage boy she had fallen in love with all those years ago.
