I didn't know what to do, so I just lay there and stared at the ceiling. Adam had kept stroking my head and whispering that it was gonna be alright, I felt a drop of tear slip down as I closed my eyes and pulled Adam's hand tightly around me. All I did was sleep, wake up, think, then sleep again this was going on for hours, but Adam slept through it all.
I woke up and felt a little bit better, I turned to see Adam he really needed to sleep because he looked really tired, I raised his hand in an attempt to get off the bed and walk around for a little while, only for him to pull me closer, I gave him a quick kiss on his lips and pulled his hand off me gently. I stood up and pulled the blanket over him and turned to see Crystal holding 3 cups of coffee and was staring at me and what I had been doing, she walked over and placed a cup of coffee on the table and handed me the other, I took it and nodded my head as a form of gratitude, she was about to say something when I put my hands over my mouth to shush her, and pointed to Adam wo was sleeping on the bed, I grabbed a coat (I think Adam's) and walked out of the room with crystal on my heels, I pulled the door shut and turned to Crystal, she had been itching to let out a word after all that happened, when she finally had a chance to talk she let out more than words,
"How are you?, Are you feeling better? What happened to you?, the doctor couldn't tell us what was wrong with you, we thought you were going to die, I missed you so much, did you know that your dad came here with Mike and Jason, did you also know that BTS' new album has been released, and did you know that there is a doctor here who looks like a hunk? He came to check up on you yesterday" she rambled on,
I took her hand in which the coffee was held and raised it to her mouth gently so she would stop talking, she pulled her hand down and smiled at me.
"I'm okay. I am feeling better. I don't know. Yes, Adam told me. No, I didn't know, How do you expect me to know when I was unconscious for the past three days, and lastly How am I supposed to know there is a doctor here who looks like a hunk? And besides he is older than you I don't think you would want to be dating someone who is older than you, and how hunk like is this hunk on a scale of 1-10?" I asked as I winked at her after letting out the last sentence, and we both started laughing together,
"I missed you so much" she said hugging me,
"I missed you more" I said, hugging her tighter, she let me go and leaned back,
"Huh huh, there is no way you missed me more than I did, I was the one outside waiting for you to wake up, so I clearly missed you more than you missed me" she insisted crossing her arms at the last sentence she had already dumped her coffee in the waste bin, I told her to shut up and hugged her again,
"I missed you so much, I couldn't imagine life without you, my life became so boring, I didn't know what I was going to do, my life had become a routine, like sleep, wake up, come to the hospital to check up on you, eat and go back home to sleep again then the next day the same thing, I thought I was going to die" she exaggerated.
"Crystal it was just three days," I said, "Then what would you have done if it had been a week? I mean, would you have died, then I also wake up and see you dead then I end up killing myself ,with our fate ending up like that of Romeo and Juliet?" I said in between chokes of laughter,
"Or we could be Stomeo and Cruliet" she said which made me laugh harder. We held onto each other and we laughed out loud, we were attracting attention, but we didn't care, some patients were passing by us wondering if we were alright or needed to be transferred to the psychiatric ward, which made me laugh even harder at the thought.
I felt more energized after sleeping and waking up, I actually expected my body to fail me after I had woken up, like not being able to take steps and stuff but I felt I could run a marathon and still survive, I felt like I could play three football matches in the same day without breaking a sweat, I knew that it seemed like I was exaggerating but that was how I actually felt. I turned my attention to Crystal who was about to say something before I shut her up asking "What about Luke?, How is he?, did he ever come around?" I asked turning to crystal for an answer, who had somehow turned quiet after my sudden attack of questions I eagerly looked at her waiting for an answer, I took a seat on the nearest bench and looked on to crystal for an answer.
"Yeah....he did come by, with Jennie" she said looking down at her fingers. Crystal, who was so bold and irrational (sometimes) turned into a cute puppy who needed help every time Luke was brought up. I got up and hugged telling her not to worry, she leaned back and looked at me before asking,
"What made you faint?" I loosened my hold on her and turned away, I myself didn't know what had caused me to faint, the last memory I have before fainting was that of Crystal exclaiming over the broken painting and me trying to hide the mark on my wrist, 'should I tell her?' I asked myself ,
'But what exactly was I going to tell her?' I asked myself once again like I had asked myself three days ago.
I hesitated before answering "i...I...don't know" I stammered as I slumped on the bench once again as various thoughts crossed my mind.
I looked up to see my dad walking towards me.
