“What are you doing here?” My mother said rather loudly. That’s not like my mother, she never shouts.
“I came by-“
“Get out!” My mother again yelled.
My dad was holding her back, she was obviously going to tear aunt Jackie apart if he didn’t. Who blames her, though. Leaving your daughter in someone’s care, and later finding out they’ve been keeping secrets.
“Listen, Diane-“ She was once again cut off by my mother.
I snuggled closer to Harry, trying to block out the dramatic events. Harry’s arms immediately wrapped around, as he probably sensed my discomfort. Sitting up, Harry spoke.
“I think you should solve this outside. Ana is too tired.”
My mother shot daggers at aunt Jackie. Aunt jackie looked at me with a tiny smile, I returned it unsurely. Life’s too short to not smile back.
“What the hell just happened?” harry said with a chuckle. Of course he’d find humour in this. I tugged at his flannel, and rested my head on his chest. Only one thin piece of clothing separating us.
“Do you even know who that was?” I giggled and traced random shapes on his chest, he looked down at me with a smile.
“Am I supposed to know her?”
“Kinda. That’s aunt Jackie.”
His facial expressions immediately hardened, he freed himself from me and began sitting up. I sat up and supported my weight on my hands.
“Where are you going?”
“Im gonna show her what-“
“Shh. Sit beside me, please.” I don’t want anymore problems. Not on my last days.
“I-“ His shoulders dropped and he huffed as he came back beside me. I smiled and hugged him closer.
“How about we finish more of the list?” I suggested. He sighed and nodded, rubbing his face with his hands in pure frustration.
I got the small notebook from the drawer, turning the pages quickly to reveal the list. I scanned it quickly and bit my lip because of the refusal I knew I will be getting.
“Smoke?” I muttered in a low voice. His head turned to me with widened eyes and he violently shook his head.
“Absloutly not.”
“But-“
“No, And I'm not discussing it.”
“Please Harry, ill die happily knowing I finished my list.” I placed a small kiss on his lips and he hummed.
“It’s still a no.”
“Please.”
“I have an idea.”
“What is it?”
“Just pretend to be asleep.”
“I can do that.”
“And don't pass out, god knows how weak my heart is getting.” I giggled and playfully shoved him. He walked to the door and rested his head on his hands to motion me to sleep.
I closed my eyes, laying on the bed. I was so tired and I woke up a bit more than an hour ago. I heard talking in the hallway and soon the door creaked open. It closed again and I heard footsteps walking away.
“Good job, they believed your shitty acting.” Harry came inside with a grin on his lips. I closed my eyes again playfully. When I opened them, a frown was on his face.
“Why the long face?”
“The sight of you closing your eyes and laying like that…… I’m sorry.” He placed his hand on his mouth. My heart ached and I wrapped my arms around him. He shook it off and got a hold of my hand.
He opened the door of my hospital room as I quickly put on some sandals. He shushed me as he peaked out of the door. We walked out, hand in hand, with the IV behind us. I hate that thing.
ِExcitement rushed through me as I followed him down the hall. We walked down the stairs and out of the hospital. By the time we reached the gate, I was bunched over. My lungs were failing as I experienced something I've never felt before. I couldn't be able to grasp my breath.
“Ana, are you okay?”
“Yes. Iv’e always hated moving.” I smiled and stood up to reassure him. He nodded suspiciously and got a hold of my hand again. We walked to his car and he drove to a nearby aisle.
It was empty and I looked at him worriedly. He smiled and got something from his pocket and I noticed it was a pack cigarettes. He sighed and lit one up.
“Of course, you won’t get anything without a kiss.” He pursed his lips and I quickly pecked him and proceeded to get my well earned cigarette. He moved it away and I frowned.
“You’re not smoking.”
“What do you mean?”
His hand got a hold on the back of my neck as he brought me closer to him. Faces inches apart. He brought the cigarette to his lips and sucked almost seductively on it. He then leaned in closer, our noses touching, and he breathed out the smoke in my face.
I tried to inhale it, my lungs being too weak to take it as I began a fit of coughs. When I was done, I looked at his concerned face.
“Still want to smoke?” He laughed and I quickly shook my head.
“We should probably head back.” I muttered and he started the car again. We were in no time at the hospital and he carried me back to my room.
“Do you know what tomorrow is, Anastasia?” He smiled as he layer my back on the bed.
“Friday?”
“You didn’t forget, did you?”
“I didn’t forget.”
“I know you did, but tomorrow’s our day. So be ready.” He winked and started walking away.
“Where are you going?”
“To take a shower, don’t worry.” And with that, he disappeared into the bathroom. I sighed and closed my eyes with a smile.
