(Y/n)'s POV

3 weeks had passed.

There were two things that kept me going and happy,
First is that Elijah was getting better daily and Christmas was coming soon.

I was going to visit him at the hospital today, I get ready, do my hair, brush my teeth and get changed.

"Good morning Y/n," Amie greeted as I went downstairs.

Each day, I would just think everything was all a dream. Nothing was real. I wished he was just beside me, laughing and making jokes, that always made my day. 

"Morning Amie, you sleep well?" I asked, trying to avoid what I was thinking of and moving on.

"Yeah, what about you? Still can't thinking about...Elijahh~"

I nudged her shoulder, causing me to give her a deathly stare.

"You literally can't stop teasing me about him," I rolled my eyes.

"I'm only telling the truth!" Amie laughed.

"Whatever, I'm just visiting him... as a friend! Nothing else!" I huffed, crossing my eyes.

"What's all the racket here?" Sub snickered as he entered the kitchen.

"Nothing, Just- Let's just go..." I muttered, shaking my head and grabbing my purse.

"Okayyy..." Amie giggled. Then grabbed her handbag and car keys. "Let's get going."

"Meet you guys at the hospital," I waved at my brother, he was gonna catch up with the guys a bit later.

•♡°♡°♡•

Amie knocked on the ward. As the door opened, it revealed a familiar face. Ethan. 
Although Amie and I saw him every week, it always feels like he was gone for years. 

"Hey," Amie greeted her boyfriend with a smile, giving him a small kiss on the cheek.

"Come on in," Ethan replied, returning a smile.

Elijah's parents were back to their own home, since the limit was only one person. But they visit every time.

I give Ethan a warm hug and glad he was still okay. 

Amie dropped a small bag that was full of Elijah's clothes, his pants, shirts and hoodies.

"How's he doing?" I asked Ethan.

"Same thing, he still gets his medication, he's recovering," Ethan smiled.

"Hey Y/n, we're just going to that cafe downstairs for some coffee, can you look after Elijah?" Amie asked.

"Sure," I agreed. I did want to be alone with him for a bit.

"Great, we'll be right back," Amie said with a wink. I simply rolled my eyes and giggled.

I watch Elijah, still fast asleep. I guess he would get worn out from being injected with a needle every day, he does deserve his rest. 

Although I promised I wanted to be with him every second of my life. 
I watch him sleep peacefully, which he was every time I saw him. I loved how he looked, he's still adorable even if he sleeps.

His eyes awaken as he catches me staring at him. I blinked twice before realizing he was actually awake.

I quickly jumped and yelped as I moved back, laughing awkwardly.

"Hey, you're awake," were the only words that came out of my mouth.

"Y/n? Is it just you at the moment?" Elijah asked as he looked around the room.

"Yeah, why?"

Without me realizing, he got out of his own bed effortlessly and gave me a hug. 
I froze in shock, my mind empty throughout the whole thing. I quickly snapped out it and take him back to bed.

"Elijah! No! You're not better yet okay?! I don't wanna see you hurt yourself because of me!" I yelled. 

He only responded with a shrug and smirk.

"Don't do that again. You could get hurt." I said, slightly smacking his head.

"I'm fine, always. As long as you're here," He smiled widely, his eyes squinting.

"Did I smack your head too hard?" I joked, making both of us laugh.

"Elijah..." I sighed, "You think I'll fall for a guy like you?"

"I know... I'm not capable-"

"I never said I couldn't."

I leaned in and smashed my lips against his, not wasting any moment knowing it wouldn't go for that long. I felt his hand cup my cheek. My heart just went faster and faster.

Then he broke apart from me.

"Well, Y/n. I'm sorry, but I don't think I can be with you, look at me... I'm nothing but an idiot and coward," He sighed.

"Oh shut up," I rolled my eyes, kissing him back again, but more gentler and happier.

Today was one of the best visit days I've had.
