The Dawn - Sylus x OC

10 -THE DAWN-

While i think about Sylus, and the whole situation, a flashback of Xavier's bleeding head rushes through my head.

Xavier. Where is he?

_________________________________

After a while of resting i feel a lot better. The device in my Core is portable so I try to find Xavier.

"He must be somewhere near.."

I think to myself. I take my courage and strength to get out of bed, picking up the devices and resting them in the wheelchair next to me I walk with it out of the room, slowly and steady.

Zayne immediately finds me, he excuses himself out of the conversation and walks madly in my direction. Oh oh, i think to myself as i try to slowly back up, he reaches me in no time.

"What did i just tell u."

He says.

"Do you.. maybe know where Xavier is?"

"Xavier?.. oh you mean the person sitting beside u in the car."

He goes through his notes , placing his glasses on his nose, he searches for the name.

"Ah, here. He is exactly one floor beneath your room"

What a coincidence.. i think to myself, regarding knowing that our apartments located exactly at the same distance

"Thank u" I say while i try to pass Dr. Zayne, but he blocks my way. We shuffle from side to side, and I frown at him, clearly frustrated.

"Nah uh uh, you, miss, is going to lay in bed now and rest, as your doctor told u"

Zayne says.

"But I really have to see him. Please, Zayne. This is one last time."

"No. I don't let that slide."

"Zayne.."

I observe his unwavering gaze, clearly resistant to my request. Our eyes lock in a silent exchange, each glance charged with unspoken dialogue. Gradually, his stance softens, and with a reluctant sigh , he finally agrees.

"This one last time. But I will accompany u throughout ur visit"

"Deal."

I say, catching myself saying a similar thing that Sylus once said to me. I feel a deep feeling of sadness. I think i start missing him.

Zayne pushes the wheelchair i sit on with the device on my laps, we soon find ourselves in front of Xavier's room. Zayne knocks on the door.

"Come in"

The voice of Xavier enlightens my heart, i smile widely while the door to the well lightened room slowly opens, reveling Xavier who is sitting on his bed.

Relieved to find him fully awake, i form a gentle smile. The sunlight filters through the blinds, casting a warm glow over his face. His blue eyes, innocent and bright, meet mine. For a moment there is confusion, then his expression shifts into shock.
