Unusual

I looked at Jade and she nodded. Our hands unfolded and my heart felt emptier. Detective Cody led us through the silent halls of the hospital, into the crowd of paparazzi's, and into his car.

By the end of the questioning I felt my head start to pound. All this thinking was hurting my head. Finally after a long day, I was left to go. The visiting hours were inoperable for me to go and I was tired. My mom took me back to the house where I finally was able to take in the scents and sight.

Nothing had really changed. The atmosphere smelled like laundry sheets and tea and it made me smile. After a long couple of months I was back in a house that was memorable.

I hopped up the stairs after getting everything refreshed in my mind. Cold air surrounded the inside of my room when I entered. Everything had remained the same as I left it. Tiredly, I trudged over to my foreign bed and almost instantly fell asleep.

.☁️🌀☁️🌀☁️🌀☁️🌀.

When I woke up, pancakes were set up on the table along with some eggs and toast. It sure was smelling good and it's been a long time since I've had a good breakfast.

"Morning mom." I smiled.

"Uhm, the doctor gave me your pills and he just said that you need to take one everyday in the morning."

"Okay. Where are they?" I stood up from the chair.

"Here," she dug in her purse and handed me an orange container. "fr-"

"Just one container?"

"No the rest are in my purse but I just wanted to give you that one first. And from now on they'll be in the bathroom."

"Do I just need to swallow it with water?"

"Mhm."

After swallowing all my pills and eating breakfast- of course catching up with my mom -I went straight to the hospital. For the next couple of days I would be spending most of my day here.

"Hi." I smiled at Jade when I entered the room.

"Hi, Harry. How'd it go yesterday?"

"Made my head hurt like a bitch. How are you doing?"

"Honestly I don't think could have been better applies." she shrugged, "Oh wait. Remember that one time we took a shower together and I su-"

"Jade!" I chuckled, "Sorry to ask."

"Well that was better than all of this."

That's how we spent the rest of the day. We talked about anything and everything. I felt bad that I didn't spare any time to see Louis but I liked spending time with Jade so it felt like I was here for just a couple hours.

"I can't sleep." Jade whined.

"D-"

"Come sit next to me."

"Wouldn't that be uncomfortable? I think I'd hurt you."

"It's uncomfortable I got stabbed in the gut and can't sleep and it hurts when I want to cuddle with my boyfriend but he rejects."

I walked over to the side of he bed and tried to move all the tubes, "I never rejected."

We squeezed onto the bed. It was so small my ankles dangled off the end and half of my body was midair. Definition of uncomfortable.

Jade snuggled into my chest and I had to lay on my side for everything to work. Time passed by before she fell asleep and soon enough I was too.

"Harry I love you."

"I love you Jade."

She looked away from me with tears collecting in her eyes. Warmth radiated onto my chest where her hands pressed up against. A tear slipped down her cheek and she frustratingly wiped it away. "Harry I love you. But we can't be together."

"Why not? I love you Jade, please stay."

"Don't worry," she smirked, "I'm going to stay but you aren't."

"What do you mean?"

"Harry I love you."

The voice was not familiar at all. The words strung out of Jades mouth but it didn't sound like her. It was close, but not complete. There was no time to try and figure it out completely because a painful force jammed in my chest and blood came out of my mouth. The taste was the least of my concern.

Humidity pricked at my body from my nightmare. The reoccurrence terrified me and the fact that it felt so real made my skin crawl.

To ease my mind, I stood up and walked to the window. Pinks and oranges painted the sky and there was no wind. I would have to be leaving soon.

My mind tried to process what the dream meant and if it was some sort of déjà vu. That's when it clicked. Jade probably would do that. She is the type of person who would be a whole different person and do insane stuff to. Hell, she would probably kill me later if that nightmare happened twice.

When I looked back at her she was curled in a ball. Fuck she was so perfect, no wonder I was in love. Jade made me become more open eyed with the world.

My feet carried me to the bed as I stood above her and stared. I did not move a muscle for a couple of minutes. Then I grabbed her neck with my hands and pressed as hard as I could. She opened her eyes and tried to pull me off. Her eyes stared right at what she created.
