Gray Yeon

Chemical scents filled the air, wheels squeaked against the floor carrying patients to Emergency Operating stations, and blue nurse uniforms filled my vision. 

Where I live, the nurse uniforms are usually green...interesting.

Everything here was new. I had never been here before. But one thing had to be the same. I couldn't handle it if he wasn't the same. Even if he didn't reply to me, he had to be the same. 

Please, God, give him back.

-Flashback-

Stephen and I were playing a video game together at his house. His mom dropped some snacks off before going back down the stairs to do her work. I glanced at his bandages. 

"Stephen, where are you getting those from?" I asked. I didn't honestly expect him to reply, but it was always worth a try.

If only I had tried harder.

"It doesn't matter, don't worry yourself about it! Just a few scuffles and a couple of clumsy turns," Stephen replied, laughing like he always did. I sighed in relief. If he was okay, I was okay.

Why didn't I see through his lies?

"Anyways, did you want to come over next week?" I said, casually as possible. I didn't want to break my composure around him. I just hoped for a little more with him, and showing him interest in hanging out should work...well, that's what my research said.

I let him push me away. I pushed him away.

"Sorry, no can do. You're just gonna beat me in this game again anyways. I've got some errands I need to do," Stephen said brightly. I physically felt myself deflate.

He was only trying to protect me.

-End of Flashback-

I regret everything about those last weeks. I didn't see my best friend's pain, and he didn't confide in me because he didn't want me to be targeted. He's in a coma now, and I can't see his smile and his star filled gaze, and I can't feel his hands on me because the first time was the last-

-Flashback-

"Gray, why're you so upset? I'm sorry we haven't been hanging out as much lately. I'm not trying to hurt you, I just want to keep you safe..." Stephen looked at me with the sweetest concern. We were finally in my house.

"I just want us to be close. I-I don't know how this works, I don't know how that stupid thing called love works and the further you are from me, the less I understand." My heart beat picked up. Holy- did I just indirectly confess? Stephen's eyes widened in shock as a boyish, excited grin came to his face.

"Gray?" A hand reached out and cupped my cheek. Jesus Christ he had the softest hold. Nothing but warmth lay in his eyes, nothing but pure love and happiness. I hadn't seen him like this in so long. He was always avoiding me before.

Love me...please. Just stay by my side.

"Stephen, I..." Stephen put a finger over my mouth, the grin becoming a gleeful smirk. 

"I won't make you say it, that might just kill your pride forever. Just look at me. And keep doing it," he breathed out. I was over the moon. I was outside my body, I was seeing stars.
