Eventually I started to feel a lot better and even got to hang out a lot more with London without worrying about throwing up or passing out. But recently, he had started to stare at me a lot more than usual. Every time I would walk by, he would observe my presence for a longer period of time and would end up zoning out. I was walking out of my room and headed to the kitchen when I saw London sitting on the couch, staring at his phone. "Hey London. I'm pretty hungry. You wanna help me make something to eat?" He quickly turned to face me and looked me up and down for a long time before finally saying, "uhhh.. Yeah sure. What do you want to make?" He got up and rushed right to my side, getting very close and barely leaving any space between us. It was different but I didn't mind it too much. "You're acting weird." He started to get anxious, and I could tell by how nervous and stiff he was acting. "Uh... what do you mean?" He started to lean back a bit, putting just a bit of distance between us without stepping back. "Never mind. Let's just make some lunch." Time after time, the stares would only last longer, and he knew that he was. On the last day he was staying to take care of me, the day before Night was coming home; it wasn't a very busy day for either of us. I laid on my back on the end of my bed with my head hanging off the edge when London had come in to join me and sat on the floor next to me. "I was thinking, for a celebration, we could throw a little party at my place after the exams."

I wasn't really a huge fan of parties, but it's been a while since the last time I went to one so why not? "Of course, another party. That's all you do, isn't it? You, Clark, Seb, Scy, Christian, all of you are just huge party people." I smiled a bit as I listened to him chuckle. "What's wrong with parties? They're fun and you get to goof around and flow free!" I lifted my hand up and onto his head and gently rubbed it so I wouldn't ruin his hair but still goof with his head. "You have fun with that. Just give me the time and date and I'll be there. I'm sure Tom would love to go to a party anyways." Once His name came out of my mouth, I had immediately regretted speaking of him, but I knew that Tom wasn't going to let me go to a party without him, especially if London was going to be there since Tom had been getting suspicious about him when around me. Once in a while, he would accuse me of being in love with London and that was why I wouldn't have sex with him, but I would always deny it. Now that I think about it. What if that's why? I've just told myself that I'm not ready but what's really stopping me? Why am I not ready? Is it really because I love London and that I just want it to be with him? No that can't be it, can it? "Uhm yeah. Well since you're a lot better now, I should probably head back to my place and clean up since it's just been sitting there." I didn't process the fact that he was leaving until I watched him start to stand up and without thinking.

I reached out frantically and grabbed his hand, and held him back so he couldn't leave. "You don't have to go, you know." I felt so embarrassed and flushed by what I had done and turned bright red. I quickly let go before I had done anything else I would have regretted without realizing. "Heh.. sorry. If you wish to go, you can." I just wanted to go invisible and disappear forever, but I knew that I, unfortunately, couldn't. I saw a small smile creep onto his face before leaning into me and delicately kissing my forehead with a slow motion, making it very passionate. "I'll see you soon, princess." Princess!? Is he trying to kill me?! I felt my heart pounding so hard in my chest that it hurt just to breathe while all the blood inside me rushed straight to my cheeks and made me look just like a tomato. I wanted to say something, anything at this point, but I could only watch him walk away and leave. Now I had to wait just to see him again, even though I had been with him for practically the entire week, it had only felt like half a second and it just wasn't enough. I needed him to never leave and stay by my side and in my sight 24/7 at all times forever. At this point, I knew that I deeply loved it without a doubt. The only problem was that so many things were making it so hard for me to just be with him. I loved him to the moon and back. Infinite love. He was... A Rose. So pure and beautiful with only a couple thorns as his flaws but that could never bother me. I could look at him all day and night and never get bored.
