A week has passed since Skyes is taking care of me. I am always thinking that I am a burden to her but she never left my side and she always made sure that everything was alright. Everything that I needed she had it there, every time I needed to rest she sat beside me letting me rest on her. I have been feeling a lot better since the incident. And finally the nightmares have stopped. Seeing Skye everyday made feel better and knowing she was safe I felt at peace.
"Hey Chase! So I can see you are a lot better than before! I am glad your recovery was fast!" "It's all thanks to you Skye. Nothing would have happened without your help!" "Well then, I think my job here is done!" she said and went her way. Why did I feel an ache in my stomach? Why was I sad? "Hey wait a minute!" I said to her. I acted on instinct. I didn't know what got over me. "Huh? Is everything okay Chase?" "W-well, I thought that maybe you wanted to h-hangout?" anxiety was flowing into my body. I felt so warm inside. "Yes of course Chase I would love that!" Skye said with a bright, radiant smile. Her smile really lights up the day even more and that cheerful character and energetic attitude of her's is just brilliant, adorable even. I envy her for that. I am more secretive with my feelings and my actions. I just like to observe in silence. And I think I could observe her forever. "Earth calling Chaaaaseee. Are you there?" Oops I was daydreaming. "Yeah, yeah I'm here. Sorry heh." I chuckled "Well what do you want to do?" "Well I really want to go to the swing. I want to test something. Do you mind helping me?" "Of course!" and so we did. We had just one single swing in the whole yard. Actually we don't use it that much but Skye seems to really enjoy it. It also had a nice view of the mountains and the sun. A vast forest, enormous trees and many kinds of birds just being one with the nature. It is something that I and Skye share. We love nature and anything about it. Just admiring the landscapes was enough to fill us with imagination about how would it be to run there without a worry in the world. It is hard to survive we know that. But I think just us two would be nice. More than nice. "Long time no see little swing!" "Haha say that again Skye. Now let me help you." I kept on swinging her after some minutes when the height was perfect she did the unexpected. She jumped and did a perfect backflip. Something that she has been training to do for over a year. "Oh my God Skye you did it! That was amazing!" I went and hugged her tight almost lifting her above the ground "Finally I did it! Oh God I have to learn it now just when I stand still. But it can be done." "Be careful with that. Even what you did back there was dangerous." "I have lived tons of dangerous moments in my life that was nothing!" she said and we laughed.
We just sat there and kept talking for hours. We were so focused on eachother we just forgot about anything. This break we had just made us get even closer than before and I just started to realise it. "You know Chase. I've said it many times but thank you. For everything. I really do appreciate you and I really wanted to do what I did. Taking care of you was the least I could do. "Don't mention it Skye. We have been there for eachother for a long time. I thank you." "Well I know you are greatful but I mean it. Out of my heart. Things weren't good. Not good at all. It was a disaster. Until you came. Like a hero I didn't even know existed but his very existence is what saved me from the darkness that I had experienced. You are great. You really are great. You mean a lot to me. I just want to keep on living with you. You are perfect Chase." she said while she looked at me. Those big sparkling magenta eyes facing me again and the sun behind her made me see the whole of her. A gentle breeze making her ears go up a bit and making me to see her round perfect face clearly. This proud posture of hers, her small paws that could lift the whole world and that smile. That smile was nothing like the other ones she gave me. Nothing like those of our moments. This smile was special. It was filled with joy, excitement and many stories to tell. This was the most beautiful smile in the whole world. It could take my moon away and replace it with the sun. Cause her own existence is a beam of light. A radiant smile that can't heart you but only make your heart melt. How can someone be so beautiful? So special? Why was I that blind before? Why didn't I see that I loved her this whole time? That everything I did was out of love? "Skye I really do appreciate these kind words of yours and I know how you mean them. You are special to me too. I wouldn't do these things to anyone except you. I want to live like this too. With you. I won't break my promise ever." I said to her confidently. I wanted to seem normal so that I could hide my embarrassment and hide my self from blushing so hard. "Well bad for us night is going to fall. We can talk with eachother tomorrow as always right?" she said still smiling, even wider now. "Of course Skye, anytime. And maybe we could hangout with the others." "Yes we should we have left them for a while!" she said while laughing. "Goodnight Skye!" "Goodnight Chase!"

I went to my place after saying goodnight to her as always. I whispered a "I love you" after she turned her back but she didn't hear me. Her place was right next to mine and I couldn't sleep at all. So that's how love feels. I feel so stupid for not noticing earlier.

After he said goodnight to me a turned my back and whispered a "I love you" but he didn't hear me. I couldn't sleep at all after that. I wonder if he feels the same. I really want him to feel the same. How can he be mine?
