Jake took me into the revolving door of his old hospital home and put me in a wheelchair. Which I hated. I much prefer Jacob's strong arms to a piece of metal and leather. But I let him push me anyway into a room on the top floor of the hospital. It was locked but he pulled a key from his shorts and opened the door. no z guys here. there were photos, everywhere. the bed was small but clean and he lifted me out of the wheelchair and onto the bed. he covered me up and gave me a vikoden pill. Which made me exhausted. he put ice on my leg and the last thing I saw before I went to sleep was him pressing his lips against my leg.
I woke up to see Jacob's face an inch from mine, his body pressed against mine under the covers. he was holding me. And he was knocked out like a light, I wanted to run my fingers slowly down his perfect, angelic face and place a soft kiss on his beautiful pale pink lips I closed my eyes and leaned in..
"Shit!!" he cried and scooted away I opened my eyes quickly "I didn't know you were awake Alesha!" "Mmmmm." I groaned and he got out of the bed "noooo.. " I moaned "Jake come back I'm cold." he laughed softly and grabbed a blanket from a giant machine and draped it over me. The blanket was warm I smiled in content and looked down at my leg.
It was already casted and it was a light blue color, my favorite. I don't think I ever mentioned my favorite color to Jacob. He smiled at me, "its my favorite color.. do you like it?" I grinned "Its my favorite color too!" he chuckled "sorry I had to sleep next to you last night.. I couldn't find another cot and you were moving around too much, having a nightmare I guess so I crawled in with you and.." "its okay Jacob. I liked sleeping next to you. maybe we should do it all the time.." He laughed "perhaps we should Alesha."
"Hey Jake?" I asked "hmm?" "I'm freezing.. and I'm really dirty, does the shower work?" He thought for a minute. "It could, wouldn't hurt to try." he said and opened the bathroom door I heard the wonderful sound of water running. He came out smiling "go ahead." I nearly jumped for joy, then I looked down at my leg. I knew enough about casts that I couldn't get one wet. I groaned.
"What was that for Alesha?" I looked at him "I can't get this thing wet can I?" "nope, but I can find a trash bag and some duct tape." "okay." He left to go and retrieve the supplies and I went into the bathroom to prepare for a shower that I haven't had in nearly 3 months. Yes I know super gross but what can I say? I haven't had access to a working shower. All the showers in the hotels were ripped apart for scraps of metal.
Jake came back with a plastic bag and duct tape as promised and taped up my leg.
"Am I going to have it out of the shower?" I asked "yep, I could join you if you wanted." he said with a serious face I laughed and looked to see his face filled with concern, "wait you're not serious are you?" "yes I am Alesha, as a heart attack, if you fall it could be worse than anything you've ever seen, I can just stay outside the curtain and hold your leg; I wouldn't look I swear."
"Oh a perfect gentleman I see." winking at him "I'm serious Alesha." I rolled my eyes "fine." I hopped to the bathroom and pulled the curtain across and pulled the gown off.. Wait what?
"JACOB ELIAS MASON BROOKS!!!"
"ALESHA ROSALIE CARLSON"
He came running to me I had my hands on my hips "just WHY am I wearing a hospital gown? and HOW IN THE NAME OF POSEIDON DID YOU TAKE OFF MY CLOTHES?!" he smiled at that "STOP SMILING YOU ASSHOLE!!" He threw his head back and laughed so hard he fell on the floor and I began to laugh too.When he finally stopped "you had better explain yourself Jacob." I demanded "you were wearing jeans, I had to cast your leg and your shirt was dirty so I washed it, luckily you were wearing underwear, but if you hadn't I would have been okay with that 100%" I hopped over to him and punched him in the shoulder as hard as I could.
Then I fell.
