Gemini

I got scared because of Fourth's loud coughing filling up the car. I don't know what was up with him, but I prayed for this to be just a fever.
As we finally reached the parking lot, he still didn't stop his harshly coughing, so I dragged him by the wrists inside the cold hospital. He can lose his breath at any moment and so I took him, without any care, to the ER.

Hours after hours after hours I waited. It seems like it's been forever. I think, it might be something serious...or? No no no.

gemini

We found ourselves entwined on the cramped hospital bed, seeking comfort in each other's embrace. As the morning dawned, I awoke first to the sight of Fourth, looking breathtakingly beautiful. Memories flooded inside my mind as we exchanged soft "good morning" greetings. Unable to contain my affection any longer, I leaned in and planted a tender kiss on Fourth's lips, expressing the craving from all these years.
Regretfully and also frightened, I spoke with my deep morning voice.
''I-I'm sorrry Fourth...I didn't mean—''

Fourth responded to my kiss with equal tenderness, our lips meeting in a gentle and affectionate embrace, solidifying the connection between them.
As we pulled back, Fourth looked at my eyes with love.

''One chance. Just one.''

''Yes, just one.''

''Can you buy me my Starbucks drink? I miss you buying it for me.''

As I leaned to kiss his temple, he gave me a warm smile that melted me instantly.

''I will be right back. And then, we can leave this awful place.''
