I never imagined I'd find myself in this situation, sitting beside Sadie in the hospital at night. Liam, Carter, and Victor were oblivious to my whereabouts, not because I felt embarrassed about being with Sadie— that wasn't it at all. It was because I sensed Sadie's desire for privacy in this moment of vulnerability.
Leaving her alone was the last thing I wanted to do, but I had no other choice. When I met my friends at Liam's house, I discovered there was no urgent business, just a desire to party. Anger surged within me. I couldn't fathom leaving Sadie stranded at the hospital while my friends indulged in frivolous festivities. Swiftly, I made my exit, borrowing Liam's car and speeding back to the hospital.
Upon my arrival, I found Sadie sleeping on a bench in the waiting area. I settled beside her, careful not to disturb her slumber. Despite my efforts, she stirred awake.
"Noah," she murmured, her voice soft and sweet.
"Yes, Sadie, I'm here," I reassured her, gently stroking her hair.
"Thank you," she murmured, drifting back into a half-asleep state, her delicate features illuminated by the soft hospital lights.
As she rested her head on my shoulder, I couldn't help but marvel at her beauty. How could someone be so effortlessly captivating?
It was a revelation to me, realizing the depth of Sadie's allure. She was undeniably lovely, yet I had never truly seen her in this light before. In that quiet moment, as Sadie slept peacefully against me, I found myself captivated by her presence in a way I had never expected.
It was a realization that left me both surprised and intrigued, wondering what other secrets Sadie held beneath her seemingly ordinary exterior.
