Love the Way You Lie

Good Greif

 "Ok then. Just let me go check and make sure please wait here." The nurse left us to ourselves.

After the nurse left, I could feel pumpkins eyes on me. "I suppose you're going to say I'm stupid?"

"Darn right I am! Nat is like.. What... 37...41 years old! How on earth would he know us some odd years ago? We're only in Highschool how on earth could we be 'engaged?' Hm? Did you think about that?" I chuckled.

"Fine. I didn't. But legally, right now we could if our parents signed off on it. But pumpkin, you've got to realize. This has been with me.. Since before I was born. Now that there is finally something to catch onto, and possibly something that could be resolved to leave us, is something I'm willing to try and fix. I'm sick of the pills. I'm sick of the constant worry of the time when I'm not able to. I hate that voice and I hate the man behind it. If you understand at all, you know that deep down you want to do anything to make it stop."

I turned away. I could feel my throat tightening up, I couldn't stand it if Kevin saw me like this. But then I felt a hand on my shoulder, on instinct I turned. Kevin stood there with a small smile.

"Ok, fine. I'll try my best to play the fiancé roll." With that he chuckled. Witch in some ways was cute-ish. It reminded me of my mom, when my dad gives her little butterfly kisses.

Oh god, I need a life.

"Ok, so I have Mr. Vincent's name, so if you'll please follow Mrs. Smith to the lobby Mr. Barr."

I frowned. I guess I would have to tell Kevin later.

"Hey, so what happen?" I passed by Kevin, who was sitting in the lobby. He was playing some type of game, but I can't say how long. It felt like 30 minuets to me. But it was near sundown when we walked outside.

We both got into the car and just sat there. Kevin, by now, knew to let me speak when I needed to. He knew not to pester me. I turned to him and closed my eyes.

"So it basically goes like this:"

I walked up to the apartment that, myself and Edd had set up for him. It was invite only. You know, like you press the button and only the person can let you in?

Yeah, we didn't want to risk Kevin wanting Edd back. He didn't need him, he didn't need that stress on him again. He was free to live his life as he wanted, yet he stayed inside all the time. He worked over the Internet, correcting and looking over the formulas his co-workers sent to him.

Most of them felt bad for him. Especially Gilbert, I found out was the only chance Edd had for help. I wanted to beat him to a pulp. But thankfully Edd stopped me from doing it. After about 6 more months, his teeth wire things came off. But he still rarely spoke.

5 more months later, my dream finally came true. I loved double d. I did. But I respected his happiness with Kevin. I won't say I wasn't happy to know Kevin screwed everything up, but I was also sad that D, had to suffer.

We were sitting at his dinning room table, 10, almost 11 years I've been working to become a doctor. A surgeon if you want specifics, but I decided to ask if D had some of his parents old notes. Knowing they pushed him so hard to become one. He did and even let me stay there for the night. He made me some dinner. But when he set the food down, he leaned down and gave me a peck on the cheek. I stopped mid-sentence on the report I had to give. I turned my head to look up at him.

He looked away shyly with a small smile. At that moment, no words could explain what I felt. I never wanted to make a move on D, after what he has been through, I couldn't bring myself to. But at this moment, I couldn't restrain myself. I stood up slowly, I put my uncapped pen down onto the paper I was currently writing, and I wrapped my arms around his shoulders tightly.
