We'll see the light again

CHAPTER16

THE NEXT DAY

          I get to Ben's door. Andy is already there. 

''You're late''

''By two minutes''

''Still late''

          Have i ever mentioned Andy is a super big perfectionist? Sometimes it's annoying, like in this case. But sometimes it comes in handy. 

''Lets just go in''

          We go in and Ben is where he has to be. 

''Hi''

          I say as i kneel infront of him. Only this time i'm smarter and i don't free his hand. But i free his mouth instead. He's still not talking, just staring at me with bhis cold, empty stare. 

''I know that you don't remember me but i remember you'' ''And i have made it my mission to get you back'' ''So i will remember for the both of us''

''How's neck''

          He asks with a raspy voice. And a tint of guilt is playing in it too. 

''I'm better''

          It mames me happy that he still cares and feels bad for me. He doesn't show it. But that tells me he's still there, there's still hope for him. 

FEW WEEKS LATER

          I'm hanging out with Astrid. 

''So hows Ben?''

''He's fine, he's warming up to me''

          Suddenly the door opens and Derek walks in.

''I should go''

          I get up from the bed and was about to leave but Derek stops me in my tracks. 

''Can you really not be in the same room as me?''

''What?''

''I just want to talk to you''

''We have nothing to talk about''

          I was going to leave but i get stopped again.

''But i think we do''

''Ok, you want to talk? Lets talk about how you're trying to ruin my life repetadly''

''I'm trying to protect you''

''I don't need yout protection, i am not your sister, we have no relation, nothing, so you don't need to protect me'''

''What about the fact that i love you?''

          I sigh. 

''Well, you already know where i stand on this, so if you can't be my friend who respects my wishes and decisions, then no, i can't be in the same room as you''

          I leave the room. It does  not come as a surprise that he loves me, he's made it pretty obvious. But i can't return those feelings. But i never thought he would confess it just like that. 

2MONTHS LATER

          It's been 2 months and today is the day. Today they are letting Ben out. He's not completely ok but he is better. And i am so happy. They are making it like a small ceremony. I get to the place and get inside his room. Yes, i did eventually get my own card to open the doors. Because he got better. I get in there and i see him getting changed. 

''Oh sorry''

          I say as i turn around. But i did manage to get a glimps of his perfectly toned abs. And it makes my face turn rosy as that will be all i can think of. 

''It's ok''

          He whispers in my ear with his hot breath. This makes me even more nervous and emberassed. Because blieve it or not, i have never done anything like this before. I close my eyes because of the nervousness and i believe my face is as red as a tomato. Because that's what it feels like. He slowly turns me around with his hands on my waist. 

''You can open your eyes, there's nothing to be nervous about''

          As he says that, he puts one of his palms on my ckeek. I slowly open my eyes. And there he is. There he is, standing there with his perfect abs.

''You see all this?''

          He points to his abs. I nod, trying no to stare for too long. And to remember how to breath. 

''All of this is yours and you can do whatever you want with it''

          He says that and then he kisses me. His kiss is deep and passionet. And i enjoy it a lot. But suddenly someone interrupts us. The voice is VERY familiar.

''Hey what are you two doing?''

          Shit.
