Love is a rebellious bird,
That nobody can tame,
And you call him quite in vain,
If it suits him not to come.

Kye kept his eyes at the television as he watched the news, his hands rubbed together creating heat just enough to calm his tension. He had been here for seven hours now Desire still hadn't woken up. He knew it was an induced sleep but still he was desperate for answers. Secrets keep people apart, he never wanted to be apart from Desire, he wanted to feel everything with her. Maybe she didn't know what love was, he was ready to show her, to explore every kind.
Koby had a point and Kye knew. Odessa was so high once and she said Kye tried to force himself onto her meanwhile he wanted to take her home. Odessa broke him and Desire is rebuilding him back up. Desire was like a magnet and he couldn't pull back no matter what but whatever this secret was he was ready to go through this with her no matter what.
Soon and without warning Desire's hands grabbed Kye and pulled him into a hug. Desire let out a light laugh, placing her forehead on the crook of his neck. Kye placed a kiss on her head, nose and lips, grinning.
"Hey are you okay?" Kye asked.
"Yeah it was just a little hiccup" She bit the insides of her cheeks.
"Little? Are you fucking kidding me?. You gave me a huge scare and you call that a little hiccup" Kye said angrily.
"Look nothing's wrong I probably wasn't eating well or something" She stood up
"See I'm fine"
Kye raked his fingers through his hair.
"Look I understand you wanting to keep your secret and I'm not going to make you.." His eyes trailed off to the red scars on her wrist, he looked at her squarely.
"Desire?"
Her eyes burned up
"Please don't ask me"
"What happened?"
She inhaled.
"Don't. Please don't"
Kye waited until Desire drank some water and sat back on the bed.
"Are you going to tell me or wait till I find out?"
Desire frowned. Kye's words pained her but maybe he was right if they were going to do this she needed to be honest with him but then again she wasn't ready.
"Can we talk about this later?"
"No! No Desire. My girlfriend passed out the doctor asked me questions that i had no idea. Fuck" Kye laughed bitterly.
"We've be a relationship for what? twenty four hours?"
"Does that really matter?"
"Yes"
"Well It doesn't to me"
"This isn't about you Kye. It's my secret to tell"
"Of course its always about you isn't it?"
"You know what your not worth it"
"Fuck you Haynes"
"Oh you wish.."
The door opened and a man in his late fifties stepped in.
"Bera" The man bellowed.
