Ivy took a deep breath and continued to pull burnt pieces of skin off her hand. "You're doing well," the surgeon smiled. "I never got your name," Ivy said not moving her glance. "Dr Rowan," he responded.
Ivy pulled that last piece of burnt skin off with a wince. "Now what?" She asked, looking up at Dr Rowan. "Now, you lay back and do my job," he smiled and pressed a button that made Ivy's bed lower.

"I'm back, the cafeteria only had green jello sorry love," Claire handed her daughter a spoon and placed the open jello tub on her tray in front of her. "Thanks Ma," Ivy whispered and started to dig at the jello unsuccessfully. "Here," her mum took the spoon and started to feed her the jello. "Thanks," Ivy grumbled incoherently with her mouth full. Her mum chuckled.

"So Ivy, we are all good here. You can go home once the nurses finish your paperwork. Don't put any pressure onto your hand for about a week and a bit." Dr Rowan explained. "And here is some prescription medication for you," her handed the small tube of pills to Ivy's mum who placed them in her purse.

"Do you want ice cream on the way home?" Claire asked. "No thank you mum I have school tomorrow," Ivy said sitting up from the bed. "No way you're going to school, just rest tomorrow," Claire said. "Oh okay," Ivy mumbled swinging her legs off the bed.

Ivy crawled into her bed her hand wrapped up like a claw. "Shout if you need anything love," her mum said placing an iced filled water glass on her bed side table. "Thank you," Ivy said smiling.

She sighs and closes her eyes for what feels like a minute. But really a couple hours go by when a soft knock is heard from her window. Ivy's eyes staggered open and at her window was a fully dressed Sheldon.

Ivy got out of bed and made her way to the window and opened it. "What are you doing here?" Ivy mumbled groggily. "Can I come in?" Sheldon asked whispering. "I guess, did you come here by yourself?" She asked moving out the way for Sheldon to climb through. "Absolutely not Missy is here. It was her idea." Sheldon confessed pointing and his sister that was standing on the other side of the window.

"What's going on?" Ivy asked Missy. "You too have to start talking to each other. So talk." Missy almost snapped then walked to the front of Ivy's house to sit on her bike.

"Whats up Sheldon?" Ivy's eyebrow raised her arms crossed in front of her. She was suddenly very away of her outfit. She had short shorts on and a cropped tank top. Sheldon stared at her taking in the fact that so much skin was showing. Skin he wanted to touch. Skin he needed to touch and hold carefully like glass.

"I am sorry, I was scared. I've never liked someone before and it scared me. I am not wired to like someone. Let alone someone so beautiful and smart. I admire you so much, for you as a person and for your amazing brain." Sheldon word vomited out. Ivy awkwardly moved her stance about. She felt so flustered. She thought it was done. Once Sheldon snaps he snaps and nothing changes. Maybe he changed for her. For her love and affection.

"Are you going to say something?" He breathed out. "I don't know what to say," Ivy mumbled. Sheldon nodded and stepped toward her. "Then don't say anything." He whispered and softly grabbed her face bringing his lips toward hers. They melted together like a candle melting from a flame.

Ivy softened her body and wrapped her non injured hand around to the nape of his neck gently holding his hair. Sheldon pulled back a bit gasping slightly. His lips are plump and agape. "Please," he said. "What?" Ivy asked looking up at the taller boy. "Don't stop kissing me," he responded leaning back in. Ivy gasped slightly at the sudden reconnection. Their mouths moved in sync fitting together like a puzzle. Like the last piece of a puzzle, it felt so good to finish it together.

Ivy pulled back this time making Sheldon whine a bit. "You can't do what you did to me again. Because next time I won't let you through my window," Ivy said straight faced. "Never again," he whispered. "I should go now," he continues. He placed a short kiss on Ivy's lips and pulled away just as fast.

"Goodbye Ivy," Sheldon said climbing back out the window. "Bye Sheldon," she responded holding herself from squealing.

Her high was back. She had her supplier return. And it felt good- amazing.
