the room was cold.
two thin blankets rested atop me.
where am I?
and where did this huge fucking head ache come from?
I lean against the back board unable to sit up straight.
"woah.."
the room is filled with astrology posters and maps. books are piled in the corner and stacks of paper on the desk.
"where am.. George! where's George?"
I look around frantically to no success of finding the boy.
I run my hand through my hair.
I fucked up.
I drop my head down in defeat to be met with a bright pink sticky note.
just like the one he gave me that day.
the same hand writing. the same pen. the same boy.
"if your awake by now, I am out for a walk. please wait patiently for me to come back. there's water and tea by the bedside but it may be cold. take care."
take care.
I slowly turn towards the side table and lift the warm liquid to my chapped lips.
it had been about an hour now. I had started feeling a bit better as I wandered around his room and explored his maps.
I could practically recite every country by now.
I miss him.
the door slowly cracked open as I sat against the wall reading one of his many books.
"The History of Europe"
all he could do was give me a weak smile as he shut the door.
the brunette leaned against the wall next to me and smoothly slid down next to me, keeping his knees at his chest.
A few moments of silence pass.
"you understand what you did right?"
not entirely.
"yes I do. and I know sorry won't cut it.. but it's all I can think of right now."
he gives a small nod.
"well.. do you want to talk about it?"
and so we did.
A long convoluted conversation on the cold wooden floor.
"well I guess there's the main question.. why?"
why.. why. why?
"I guess I don't really know.. why."
he lightly huffed in acceptance.
"okay.. well that's a good start.. I want you to get back to me when you do know."
is he.. kicking me out?
he could tell by the look in my eyes what I thought.
"I'm not kicking you out. you aren't well enough to drive and I'm not letting you walk. so here's the deal.. I have a few errands to run and I want you to rest and think about your answer as well."
I simply nodded.
