Addicting temptation (boyxboy)

Chapter19

Alex POV:

Simion was heavily taping his foot on hospital chair beside me. I wanted to tell him to stop but the look on his face made me shut my mouth really quickly. The doctor had just told us I fainted due to the cold and stress. That I should rest or something. I wasn't really listening. I was more focused on Simion being way more worked up about it than me. Then I would remember we 'broken up now' and a wash of guilt would fall on me. He shouldn't waste his time worrying about me.

"I don't get it," he says sighing. "We were doing so well" he rubs his soft black hair and nibbles his bottom lips. "So young"

I looked up at him confused, "Why are you talking like I died?" I joke but I meet his deadly eyes and jump slightly. It's a trap. I don't know how, but I'm trapped.

"Because I'm going to kill you" he pounces on top of me. I wince in pain but he ignores me and tries to strangle me. "How dare you-"

"We finished- oh," the nurse says staring at Simion on top of me with his hands wrapped around my neck. "I'll come back," she says leaving before another word was uttered.

I pushed Simion off and glared at him. He needs to go."Just go home and stop bothering me." I say despite wanting him to stay. I need to stop leading him on into thinking there more for us.

He grinned at me like a crazy psycho. And sat back down and his chair and crossed his legs, then he clapped his hands dramatically. I raised my eyebrows at him and he whipped his hair back doing that crazy-ass laugh he does before he starts his rants.

"While we drive to the hospital. I had a lot of time to think" he started using lots of hand gestures. "Why on earth would he dramatically run around the school in the rain as if he was from a cheesy 2000s rom-com? A. You realised you fucked up getting in a fight with Andrew who is by down the hall. B. You don't see your worth and think negatively of yourself or C. You don't want us to 'break-up!"

"What did you come up with?" I ask trying to sound as if they all bullshit. But I was genuinely curious about how he was able to read me like a book.

"All of the above. Why? Well, I replayed all or conversations back while waiting for you to gain consciousness. You talk to me as if you don't deserve to be happy, you speak about your family as if they cause you pain so I decided that I'm not going to leave you. Even if we don't last, you deserve to be happy." he moves to hold my hand. Then he levels our gaze. "I don't care how much we fight or what your family says. I like you and you like me. That all that matters."

I try to stay emotionless. I want to say yes so badly but I know I can't. "Simion, please-"

"Your mouth is saying one thing but I can see it in your eyes. You want this" he says glancing at our hands which were still entangled. "I'm not giving up, no matter how much you push." his voice was determined and he squeezed our hands tighter.

"Jesus Christ, if someone walked in they would think I have stage 4 cancer" I grumbled pulling our hands away. I stood up from the hospital bed.

Simion jumped, moving close to me he grabbed my arm and made me face him. "What are you doing?" his voice filled with worry.

"Uh getting dress?" I say confused, pulling my arm away from his grip.

"Are you sure you are fine?" he places his palm on my head to check my temperature. "Oh, god what if you have a fever?" he tries to make me lie down again but I stopped him.

"The doctor said I can go home!"

"The doctors don't know what they talking about!" he shouts causing me to roll my eyes.
