Lost Feelings

LUCAS'S POV:

I wake up in the hospital to see Evelyn seeing in a chair next to my bed. "E-" I try to speak but something in my throat won't let me. My body feels numb, and I can barely keep my eyes open. When I finally get control of my arms, I grab an orange to throw at Evelyn. 

"Hey!" She bolts awake, I give a soft smile as an apology because I can't talk. 

"Omg. OMG! I'll go get a doctor." She says running out of the room almost tripping on her own two feet. I would laugh but everything hurts so badly that even sleeping sounds painful. 

The doctor gets to my room and checks any residing injuries I could possibly have. 
"This might hurt" He says right before yanking the cord out of my throat

 "Ugh!" I say trying to not throw up. "Gross, what the hell is that thing?" I ask once its fully out. Before the doctor could say anything, Evelyn is jumping on me. 

"Ow. Evelyn I'm still hurt" I say with a wince. 

"Oh! right sorry" she says slowly getting off.

It's been a couple days since I got shot. I'm now out of the hospital, but I can't lift anything over 10 pounds (4 Kilos) which sucks because I still have work to do. Evelyn has been by my side whenever I need assistance, and she helps cook food, clean the house, etc... We haven't heard or seen Parker at all so that's been nice, Evelyn's nightmares are still here, and she won't open up about any of them.  I'm getting worried about her; I think that these "nightmares" are actually visions of her seeing the future. Her seeing what will happen next, and her not opening up about them is killing me. More so than the actual bullet that went into my chest.

 I keep asking Evelyn what she meant by "sending" Parker away, but she just brushes it off like its nothing. "Evelyn." I say trying to get her attention,

 "Earth to Evelyn" I wave my hand in front of her face, and she jumps back finally recognizing that it's there. 

"Hey, there you are." I say with a smile. 

"Huh? Yea sorry I was thinking about something --Someone--" She speaks with a tone of fear. I catch on to her fidgeting with her bracelet and biting her bottom lip. 

"Is everything okay?" I ask, but no response. 

I take my pain meds and fall asleep. Leaving whatever conversation that was to discuss another time. She is being distant, and I am really worried about her. I know she's strong and can get through anything; but her not opening up to me or anyone is terrifying. I won't ever stop asking her how she is doing, I won't ever stop making sure she has what she needs, I won't ever stop-. I won't ever stop... My thoughts are gone. My entire train of thoughts, plans, patterns all gone. I open my eyes to see Evelyn on top of me sleeping. I play with her hair curling it in my fingers, Imagining pulling it while she's- No! I will not think that about my best friend's little sister. Not happening. I drift back into my slumber and dream wonderful things (If yk yk ) 

I wake up to see that Evelyn has moved and is now on the couch. I get up to head to the kitchen when I hear Evelyn moving around. "Morning" I say putting a blanket over her, 

"mmm" was her response.  Shes beautiful while she's sleeping, the way her hair falls perfectly. The way her mouth moves when she's tossing and turning. It makes me wonder what that mouth could truly do, how it would feel. NO! Why do I keep making those thoughts pop up, she is my best friend's little sister for crying out loud. I shouldn't feel the things I do, but she's just irresistible....
