Chereads / Sparkles / Chapter 16 - Chapter Sixteen

Chapter 16 - Chapter Sixteen

We all got to the hospital in about an hour and waited for Justin's parents to check us in. The nurse, Clarissa, was nice and attended to us well and even called Justin 'cute'. That's when I found her ugly and a bitch, I fumed beside him but she didn't even glance at me for once, just concentrated on getting Justin's attention which she didn't get.

I smiled triumphantly and she strutted away angrily to call the doctor in charge. The doctor asked Justin to come in with only one person to be beside him, I was already going out when I heard a voice call me back which I thought it was Austin's. 'Justin called for ya', he said smirking and went to get some coffee with Jasper, who is was already hopping down the floor.

I was surprised even shocked but I still got into the room nonetheless and I said to Justin quietly, 'What do you think you are doing? Your mom should be here'. He shook his head and said, 'I want you here. With me', he added.

His mom burst into tears and was taken outside by Justin's dad. 'OK so let's start, shall we?', the doctor asked and we both nodded.

'Go into that room over there and change into the blue uniform set on the table and lay down on the bed. I'll be back in a few', the doctor said.

Justin quickly does as he was told and change the outfit and called me in after he was done. I saw the shirt he was wearing on the armchair and wondered where his pants were. 'You didn't remove your pants?', I asked sitting down beside him.

'Too much hassle', he breathed in and out like a mantra.

'Are you that nervous?', I sit up and look at him worriedly. This is the first time I'm seeing him really this nervous, even when I kissed him for the first time he wasn't as nervous as this. Remembering that kiss felt like a lifetime ago, I smile sheepishly.

'Nervous than when you first kissed me', he also remembered laughing nervously.

'So what do you wanna do? To ease off your tension I mean. Do you wanna play a game or puzzle or should I kiss you?', I asked playfully while stretching his fingers.

'Please kiss me!', he pucker his lips out.

'Gladly', and I kissed him on his cheeks. 'Are you okay now?'. I teased him knowing fully well that he meant for me to kiss me on his lips.

'Kylie please. I want a kiss! And not on my cheeks', he sits up on the bed crossing his arms across his chest, pouting.

I wanted to object but he was too adorable for me to reject, 'Fine', I agreed like I was forced to but in the inside I was excited to feel his lips on mine again. His kiss does something unimaginable to me!

'Now come on and kiss me already', he puckered his lips out again.

I moved to stand in between his legs and hook my arms around his neck and glide my fingers over his cheeks as if testing the water but Justin wasn't having it that way. He pulled me closer to him with both of his hands on your waist in a firm grip and hooked his legs over mine trapping me in between them and kissed me feverishly.

I moan deep in my throat in content and pull him even closer, he groaned and titled my head back to pepper kiss down the base of my throat to my neck and back up to my lips. He thrust his tongue in without asking for permission and assaulted my mouth and lips to his satisfaction, puckering, squeezing and nibbling on my lips. I pull back when I knew he was getting hungry for more and rest my forehead against his to catch my breath, 'Are you feeling better now?', I asked though I know the answer.

'Better than ever', he replied pulling me back in for more. I resisted remembering the doctor would be back any minute. 'Justin.. the doctor', I tried to tell him and pull away slightly from his grip. 'Fine', he finally let me go but a frown has settled on his face.

I look back at the clock and saw it hasn't been up to ten minutes since the doctor left but it felt like hours being with Justin. I cupped his cheeks and latched my lips to his and I felt him smile against my lips but still yet engrossed in the kiss. We kissed for a few seconds or minute and I draw back to see Justin smiling already at me and looking fazed.

The doctor came in, in rush, apologize for being late and eyes the position I and Justin are in. He smirked but still continue to give instructions to Justin asking him to lay back down on the bed and the doctor brings a machine over his head to his eyes and asks him to stay still.

I stood at the corner of the room watching silently as the doctor power on the machine and it's shoots blue beam on Justin's eyes giving visual imagine of his eyes like a projector. 'So Mr. Bieber, this is looking good at the moment and I suspect that you have been going to some training on how to exert your eyes properly'.

'Yes', I answered for him.

The doctor nodded at me and continued, 'Though your retina really weak and since it's the main source of you seeing things, that why it seems as if you are in total blindness. You can only see in the dark and only the outline of a persons body but there is a problem'. My heart beats tremendously at what the doctor is going to say next, 'You are not gonna be seeing anything if this is not corrected which I have asked your parents and they consented that you can perform the 'Cervix corrector' which is a risk because you only have 20% possibility of regaining your eyesight or it's lost forever. And to remind you that there is also a high possibility that something can go on during the surgery which only 35% out of 100 come out successfully. Do you still wanna go on?', the doctor inquired.

The doctor power off the machine and wait for Justin's reply, 'Can I have a minute please? Just to decide!', he asked with his voice dripped in fear. 'Yeah sure', the doctor said and went out.

'Justin', I started. He opened his arms to me and I move in. Light sobs was heard and my heart hurts at seeing Justin in pain, I move to sit on the bed with him and cocoon him in my arms and rest his head on my shoulder soaking it in wet tears. 'What if it all go wrong? I don't wanna go blind forever. I... '.

'Shush', I shut him up.

'Look at me', I ordered. He looked up at me and I wipe his wet face, I kissed his eyes, nose, cheeks and forehead. I let my lips linger on his forehead before I pull back. I held his face in my hands and he still keep his eyes closed. 'I love you. I love you so so much. Living without you is like breathing without oxygen, lifeless. You are gonna do the surgery and come back alive to me, OK', I reassured him but I know deep down I'm reassuring myself that he's gonna come back to me alive!

He nodded and hugged me for a long time. He pulled back when he's relieved and rest assured. He kissed me on the lips and let his lips linger there for a while 'I can't live without you Kylie', he says against my lips and pulled back. 'Me too', I say and laughed wiping away the tears from my cheeks with the back of my hands.

The doctor came in and beckoned to me 'He's gonna do it', I say.

'Justin?', the doctor probed him for confirmation.

'Yes', he nodded.

'OK. That's great! You are scheduled for Friday which is next tomorrow. So you are free to go and your parents are outside waiting for you', he said leaving the room.

'Are you excited?', I say trying to ease the tension in the room.

The look on Justin's face was heartbreaking and he didn't even respond. He just say, 'Let's go home please' standing up to take his shirt from the armchair and also leave the room.

He didn't even try to hold my hand or steal kisses from me, he's hurt, nervous, scared and sad. I put on a fake smile and left the room to meet Justin and his parents waiting for me already outside. 'Let's go shall we?', his father tried to ease the tension but Justin didn't say anything. He just left the us standing and got into the car, there was a hurt expression on his parents face but they didn't take it out. They looked over at my side, his mom patted my back sadly and asked me to get in the car too.

We got to his house with silence evolving around us like a cover, each one of us engulfed in our thoughts. Even Austin didn't try to do something funny or crack a joke or say something sarcastic. We pulled over at his house and parked in the driveway, Justin was the first to get out of the car and went into the house.

I was suddenly pissed and angry. How can he act like that? Though I know and understands how he feels, he shouldn't take it out on people like that especially his family.

I stormed into the house after him and shouted, 'Justin', while going up the stairs to his room.
