Chasing the Future
You are my Everything (Alex POV)
Zack lead me to a quiet spot in the cafeteria and brought a hot chocolate. Slowly, my sobs got less loud and less frequent.
“Alex, what did they say?” asked Zack.
“They… they said there have been irregularities in his heartbeat and they want to check on him,” I replied, tears once again filling my eyes. He took me in his arms and held me tight.
After an hour, I decided to go back and look after Jack. I got to his room, heart in my throat. There were some nurses discussing something passionately outside his room and they went quiet when I got close. I couldn’t even think of what would be if Jack was dead. Inside the room were more nurses and doctors around Jack’s bed. I got closer and they moved apart.
There he was. Sitting upright, his eyes open. I gasped.
The feeling was inexplicable, such joy and warmness filled my body, I felt like I was going to explode. My heart expanded to 5 times its normal size. My lips twisted up, happy tears filling my eyes. My Jay, my little sunflower. Alive and conscious.
I stormed to his bed, shoving past the nurses and doctors, sitting down on the bed. I looked at him. He was still as pale and tired-looking as before, his neck still bruised, the stubble still scratchy on his chin, but he couldn’t have looked more beautiful to me. I carefully took his hand in mine and softly pressed a little kiss to it. Looking into his eyes, I smiled.
“Hi, little sunflower. I missed you, I love you so much,” I said. I was so relieved.
“Hey Alex… I… Are you sure that you still love me?” he croaked, his voice breaking completely at the ‘love’, tears filling his eyes.
“Jay, did you ever think I did not love you? I am so sorry, I overreacted a little bit. Believe me, you can ask Zack, I haven’t done anything but cry since I found out about what you have done. I could never live without you,” I replied, choking back sobs. He opened his arms and I crawled into them.
“Alex, I am so sorry. I did it because I don’t want to live without you either. You are my everything. Baby dandelion,” he said, voice raspy.
The hospital staff had gone, only Zack standing in the room. I could see him smile at me from the corner of my eyes. Then he turned around and left me to cuddle with my little sunflower.
“Alex, I am so tired. I think I will sleep some more…” Jack said, the sleepiness obvious in his voice. He yawned and frowned a little at the pain in his neck.
“Do that, little sunflower. I will watch over you. I love you so much,” I replied.
“I love you too…” His voice trailed off as he starts to snore softly. I snuggled closer to him. I couldn’t think of anything better in this moment. I closed my eyes to dream away the upsetting events of this day.
“Alex, what did they say?” asked Zack.
“They… they said there have been irregularities in his heartbeat and they want to check on him,” I replied, tears once again filling my eyes. He took me in his arms and held me tight.
