My First Kiss Is With The Boy I Hate (RoWen)

Chapter 7

WENDY POV

I stood in the elevator, and I was feeling nervous and anxious. I was in the hospital where my brother was in, and Macao and Romeo had accompanied me.

The doors slid open and we stepped out of the elevator and started walking down the hall in the direction where Natsu's room was in. With each step I took, I felt more and more scared to see what I would find.

We stood outside the door and there was nobody in. Macao and Romeo stayed at the door while I went in. I closed the door behind me, and I wasn't afraid to break down anymore.

"Natsu..." I sobbed tears wetting my cheeks as I saw him lying there, motionless, barely breathing, covered in bandages. I was on my knees before his bed holding onto his hand. "Natsu, don't you dare leave me..." I cried.

After what seemed like fifteen minutes I wiped away all my tears and I make sure that they are no longer visible on my face, and I can only prey that Natsu will be alright. I walked back to the door and I saw Romeo and Macao on the chairs beside the door of the room.

I smiled. "Sorry it took so long." I said and they got up and smiled. "We understand how you feel." Macao said and I felt slightly confused but I decided not to press into it.

 

The walk was silent once again, and I couldn't help but think how nice the Conbolt family was for letting me stay at their house to make sure that I was safe. I guess maybe I was a little wrong about Romeo, but that still doesn't change what he did.

 

I had been feeling really depressed and confused these days that I've been with the Conbolts. It was like, one minute, I thought Romeo was heartless, and the next, he was nice towards me. But he can change. He can change as fast as the blink of an eye and turn back into what he was before.

I was currently in my room, looking out the window as it rained cats and dogs outside. I sighed to myself.

No news about Natsu had come in, and I was starting to wonder if he would ever wake up. It's only been a few days. I had to remind myself, because only a few days seemed like forever to me.

I heard a knock the door that was closed. "Come in." I said my voice monotone. The depression was starting to get to me.

The door opened and Romeo stepped into the room and I felt my heart skip a beat, and I have NO idea why. "Wendy, um, my dad thinks that maybe we should go do something that you like, cause you seem kind of um, depressed." He said and I was shocked. Sincerely shocked. "Uh, okay." Was all I could say.

"So, uh, what do you want to do?" He asked and I pondered over the thought for a moment. I did like watching plays, but that would bore them, probably. "Uh, how about the movies? I haven't watched any in a while." I suggested and he nodded. "Sounds great, what would you like to watch?" He asked and I thought for a while.

To be honest, I have only been to the movie theatre about twice in my life. "I uh..." I said thinking my best on what to watch. Romeo's dad appeared behind him. "So, what do you want to do?" He asked and I felt a little awkward saying it. "Um, maybe go to the movies?" I said and he nodded. "I'll go see what's playing and you can choose from that." He said and I nodded, then he disappeared down the hall.

Romeo and I were left in an awkward silence, and I don't know why he didn't just leave. That sounded a little harsh on my part. Since when do I care about that? I don't know. Ever since Natsu being in a coma, my feelings have started to shift. I've been feeling so lonely lately, and whenever Romeo is around, I feel that loneliness disappear, like vapour from a puddle.

I couldn't think of anything to say, and I could tell that he didn't either. "Well, u-um..." I started and his onyx eyes stared into mine. It was like they bored into my soul, into the very depths of my being.

"Th-Thank you." I said and he tilted his head in confusion. "What for?" He asked. "For letting me stay here, and for... everything." I said softly and he seemed shocked that I had spoken so softly. Well, it's not like he would have ever heard me speak like that before.
