Saki pov:
I feel so alone. Tsukasa isn't visiting today. What am I supposed to do all cooped up in this hospital bed? I want someone to talk to. I need someone to talk to. Shiho doesn't visit me, nor does Honami. I could call Ichika. I love her company.
She's always so kind, she doesn't interrupt, and if she does she says sorry, she's suuper pretty, her hair goes down to her back and it's slightly tucked behind her ear in the front.
Her eyes are a light blue and look as if they're turning gray. She's taller than me by exactly an inch, and her outfits are so simply cute.
She's so simply cute. I could look at her all day. Her personality adds to the list of reasons I love her. She's shy but can stick up for people when it's important. Before she does anything she asks herself if her friends would like to do it too. She has communication issues, which is a nice quirk to her.
She can rant about Hatsune Miku as I can rant about her. Forever. I love her so much it hurts.
It hurts...
It hurts not being near her. It hurts being alone. I want someone near me.
No! I shouldn't be so negative! I should be smiling! I should be happy! But how can I be happy without them?
I need them. I beg for them. I yell out to them in moments of panic. I don't even yell out for my brother! He's my brother!!
"Saki? You texted me saying you wanted company." Ichika said. She ran toward me. "Is something wrong? You look upset." She placed her hand on my cheek.
"Uh? Oh! Um, nothing! I'm perfectly fine! I was just bored."
Ichika's face saddened. It almost made me cry. I don't want her sad. Did I ruin her mood?
"...you can tell me anything. You know that, right?"
I feel tears in my eyes. Do I make her feel like I don't trust her?
"Can you lay next to me? The nurses will allow it."
Ichika got next to me in the hospital bed. I scooted closer to her, putting my head on her chest. If this wasn't such a tense moment, I would've yelled out the word 'boobies'.
"Are you sure you don't want anyone else here? Like your brother or parents?"
They won't be here in time. It's no use wasting their time with the call. Tsubasa has his shows and our parents have their jobs. What's the point of making them worried if they won't make it to the hospital in time for visiting hours?
"I'm okay, I don't need anybody else here."
Ichika sighed before speaking. "You've said that a lot. I know it's a lie, but if you don't want to talk about it, it's okay."
Ichika pov:
Saki stayed silent for a moment. Did I make her uncomfortable? I probably shouldn't have said that. I can hear her sniffling. Is she crying?
"I just needed company. I was so alone, and I knew that no one else could be there. I don't know made it sound like you were my last option, but you weren't. You were my first." Saki explained through tears.
"What?" I'm confused. I was her first option. But I'm awful at communication! I can barely hold a conversation without Honami's help!
"I...I like you Ichika. You're really cute, and you're ways of communication show your alacrity. Your outfits are really cute, and you're super pretty." Saki said quickly, stuttering at times.
"I...I like you too Saki."
