"Dont blame yourself" 

I finally said as I looked deep into his mossy green eyes. He just looked down, feeling sorry for himself.

"Hey, atleast im alive"

I said with a sarcastic tone. His lips twitched into a wide grin that showed his dimples.

"Thanks" He said as he stood up and went straight to the door. Before he went out his head peeked out of the door and gave me a cute laugh.

"Take care of yourself now, get well"

"I will" I nodded and brushed my bangs upward to show my face.

"Oh-" He added "Remember, When your'e done with this therapy thing, I'm gunna pick you up EVERY morning escorting you to school" He said with a playful glare.

"Ok, Mr Bossy Pants" I said while sticking out my tounge at him. He chuckled and went out. 

I can hear my mom's muffled voice from outside,

"So, how is she?" 

I hadn't got the chance to hear James' answer, he was too far away. The door swung open and my mom came in. I acted to be sleepy, I yawned reaaaal loud and rubbed my eyes.

"Dont do that trick again, so that you could talk non-stop to James" My mom wiggled her eyebrows and looked at me with a smirk.

"Nooo, Im not planning on calling that jerk!" I placed my arms around my chest and looked straight at his window.

That was obviously a lie.

"Not unless he called you first"

I turned myself to mom with a oh-no-you-didnt look on my face. My mom could be a pain in the neck at times. AGHHHHHHHHH. I wanted to scream from the top of my lungs. But I bet she'll just laugh at me for doing so.

"Never mind that, so what do you want for dinner?" 

"It's still early" I said with a sarcastic tone of voice

"Do you think cooking you a healthy meal would take about 5 minutes?" She said raising a brow.

"Ok mooooom" Mom left and I lyed down and took my cellphone out from my pocket.

I heared a loud tap on my window. Probably a bird but no. It wasn't. I turned my head to the large window and saw James holding up a branch from the oak tree beside the window.

"What are you doing here?" I mouthed him

Then he put up his iPhone on the window,

 Looking for you 

As usual, I smiled like a complete idiot. A pity my window couldn't swing open unlike his but he kept a close stance. I kept on mouthing him and he keeps on replying using an app on his phone. Aaaah the usual talk. Him being flirty, me acting like I really dont care. Then my door creecked open. I turned directly to James mouthing him "somebody's here". I knew directly he already knew. I panicked, even though HE was the one to get in trouble. He managed to get down from there and went back to his room.

"Hey" A bubbly voice echoed through the room. Jullie went in and sat at the edge of my bed. Then a GUY came in.

"This is Leonard" Jullie said with a smile on her face.

"Hey!" Leonard reached out his hand and I shook it.

Leonard has this high pitched voice that makes him sound feminine. No wonder Jullie made friends with him.. err her. Orr AGH never mind !
