Dedication Takes a Lifetime But Dreams Only Last For a Night
Iced Tea,Blindfolds& Love
Alex POV: The days were blurring together. I had a routine of waking up,texting Jack for a while since he wasn't allowed to sleep with me anymore, doing homework, and being bored out of my skull until Jack came. Then I had 5 hours of fun. Not that kind. We talked, We cuddled, we kissed but most of the time we talked. I learned everything about Jack from his dreams, fears to his childhood and favorite color. We were like puzzle pieces, perfect for each other. And with every minute passing by I knew for sure I loved him more and more. I just didn't know how to tell him with our creeping him out. My hand was castless finally. It felt so weird at first but now it's all good. That is apart from the scars covering my entire left hand a permanent reminder of my dads abusing. I knew they'd be there forever. Jack kissed my hand when he saw them saying he was so happy I wasn't in that house anymore. I spent that day with my guitar that Jack brought playing all the songs I know even Backstreet Boys as Jack made fun of my overjoyed faces. When Jack left though it was like the light of the day was gone. I was so bored. In the mornings it was the worst. Today was no different. I was about to start homework when Dr Merrick entered. "Hello Alex. I've come to check your bodies reaction to the new medication." He prodded my rib that had stopped hurting significantly since the new medication. "Good news. Your ribs are almost healed. You will be released from the hospital if you keep healing in two days."Two days! Thats 48 hours! It's so close! I was so happy. I was sick of the hospital with the stuck up nurses, white walls, and loneliness. I instantly grabbed my phone and texted Jack. He replied saying we should celebrate. I reminded him I was in the hospital and he replied with a smiley saying there are many things one can do there. Hmmm well we'll see I answered. Oh gotta go Wilsons here he texted. Ugh about 6 more hours till Jack comes. Time seemed to slow down as I waited. Finally it was 4:00 when Jack was supposed to come. Finally at 4:30 he entered smiling and said close your eyes and don't kill me. "Ok... Jack what are you doing?" He leaned and blindfolded me. "C'mon." I could hear the smile in his voice. He took my hand and started to take me somewhere. "Jack what the hell are you doing?" "It's a surprise! Shh!" What was he planning? After a few turns and I think an elevator, I heard a door open and Jack took off my blindfold. We were in one of those glass gardens. When it's inside but the walls are see through glass and there's grass and flowers all over. A blanket was spread on the grass and on it were sandwiches, a pizza, cookies, and iced tea. It was perfect. Jack stared at me looking at all my expressions. "Oh my god. Jack. It's perfect!" He smiled that adorable smile of his and said " I wanted to take you on a date but I couldn't so I brought the date here. Let's eat!" "How are you so thin?" I joked as he dug in. "I honestly have no idea." We ate the food which was delicious. "Real food!!" I screamed. "I knew how much you hate that hospital food." "You are so cute!" I said as I hugged him. "To Alex's freedom!" He said as he toasted a cup of iced tea. "And to the best boyfriend ever!" I added. "Yeah I have the best one ever." He said. "Umm no way. Mine is the best." We leaned in and kissed passionately as he held the back of my neck, his long fingers weaving through my hair. "Mine is obviously better. I mean look what a great kisser he is." Jack muttered as my cheeks turned red. "Aw and he blushes too!" he joked. He was so cute! "Come here." I said and we made out for a few wonderful minutes. When we broke off Jack said" Well there's desert of that wasn't enough." smiling as he brought a plate of cookies and cupcakes. We ate and then lied down on the blanket, looking at the stars. It was perfect. We laid there holding hands in silence until I said "Jack. I love you." He looked surprised but happy as he replied "Lex I love you too." He loves me too!!! I felt like I could simply spread wings and fly. I was warm inside as I cuddled Jack, my perfect boyfriend. In that moment I realized I was happy I didn't take my life all those times. It seems like a lifetime ago since i was in that basement, bleeding and starving. Jack makes me feel whole, like I can be myself around him without getting judged. I turned so I could look into those chocolate eyes. We stared at each other,enjoying his beautiful eyes, quirky eyebrows, big nose that looked good on him surprisingly,and adorable lips. He was so sexy and cute. And he was mine. After a while we suddenly realized it was almost 12 and there was school tomorrow so we headed up and Jack accompanied me to my room as I had no idea how to get there. He told me how he accidentally found that garden that's supposed to be for visitors buts forgotten when he was looking for me. We joked around until we got to the room. I got in the bed and felt lonely. "Jack? Stay with me?" He smiled and said "Sure." He texted his parents and we cuddled just like old times. And it was simply perfect.
