*Important A.N at the end*

"Alice has broken the two bones in her lower leg, and fractured a bone in her wrist" The doctor tells me.

"She fractured her scaphoid and it was clean, so it should heal nicely, but her leg will take about 10 weeks. Both her tibia and fibula were broken." He continues.

"OK, but can I visit her?" I ask the doctor, getting annoyed. 

"Yes, sir, but we please ask you to-"

I push past the doctor and go into Alice's room. She's laying on the bed, in a pale blue tank top and black shorts. Her leg is wrapped in a huge white cast. She was asleep, she looked so sweet and gentle. As I closed the door behind me, she woke up. She rubbed the sleepiness out of her eyes. She looked at me and smiled.

"Hey, Michael"

"Hey Alice, How are you feeling?"

"Pretty good considering I'm pretty mangled up."

I suddenly noticed that Alice wasn't wearing fishnets. Her legs were gorgeous. They were smooth. Her thighs weren't muscular, there were kind of chubby and cute actually. The one calf I could see was a bit muscular. I walked closer. I kissed her forehead gently and grabbed a sharpie off of the bedside stand. Alice looked at me confused. I went to her leg and began drawing. Alice couldn't really see.

"What are you doing Michael???" She asked.

"Just wait" I responded.

I continued working.

"Done."

Alice looked and I saw her start tearing up.

"Thank you so much Michael, it means so so much to me." She started crying now. I brought my lips to hers and gently kissed them. I wiped away her tears, remembering when she had been lying on her floor and I did the same exact thing.

"I'm just glad you're OK"

She stopped crying and I went over to my chair. I scrolled through my Twitter feed. I noticed that Halsey was having a Twitter contest. You could win a follow from her, a DM, and front row seats at her next. I immediately looked to see what you need to enter. You simply had to send a picture of what you were doing this weekend and tag her. I explained the situation to Alice. We took a selfie together. I made sure to include her cast. I tagged Halsey in it and added a caption of 'Chilling in the hospital with the best girl in the world after a hair dying incident'.

We went and got lunch at the cafeteria. We talked about what happened since she got to the hospital. We went back up to the room and sat on our phones antisocially.

Alice POV

"AHSHSMAMAHJJWNAHWAIDVKUWMSHAMAJSNEGAKSUJH" I heard Michael scream like a 13 year old girl.

"Ohmygod what's wrong?!" I said on instinct. He was just staring at his phone.

"IjustwontheHalseycontestandshejustDMedmeandfollowedme!!!!" He yelled

"OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD" I yelled.

I wanted so bad to get out of this stupid hospital bed and jump up and down with Michael.

At the concert

Halsey had just performed Drive. The concert was really good and I stood up and danced almost the entire time. Michael hasn't told me what he DMed Halsey about. The music stopped and I assumed that she was going to take a moment and talk.

"I'd like to dedicate this song to a beautiful young couple who I hope stay together forever. This song is dedicated to Michael and Alice. " She said. At first I didn't really notice that she was talking about us.

A stage guard helped me and Michael onto the stage.

"I like your hair" Halsey said with a smile.

Michael was smiling so hard that I thought his face was going to bust in two.

Halsey started singing...

We'll be looking for sunlight
Or the headlights
Till our wide eyes burn blind
We'll be lacing the same shoes
That we've worn through
To the bottom of the line
And we know that we're headstrong
And our heart's gone
And the timing's never right
But for now let's get away
On a Roman holiday

After the second chorus, the music and Halsey stopped.

Michael walked up to me and said "Alice, I think of you every day and can't bear the thought of the pain you've gone through, the challenges. But I want to be with you every day, be your newest challenge. Alice, will you be my girlfriend?"

"Yes,  Michael, I will!" I said.

The crowd cheered. Michael's lips came crashing into mine. Filled with passion. I kiss him back, grabbing his neck. Halsey continued the next verse. Me and Michael went off stage. The rest of the concert continued and it was awesome. After the concert we went back to Michaels car. I was really tired and it was late, so I just sat and fell asleep.

I woke up when he pulled to a stop outside my house.

"Why don't you stay over tonight, Michael? My parents aren't home, but Carmen is, and she won't bother us."

"Sure"

⚪⚪⚪

Michael was cuddled up on the couch. We were upstairs, just being antisocial. I liked that we could have silence without it being awkward. I went over to him and kissed him.

"Hey, boyfriend" I said with a smirk. He sat up and I straddled him. I opened my lips and let his tongue enter my mouth. I grabbed his hair and gently pulled it. I quietly moaned and Michael slid his warm hands under my shirt. He kept them around my waist. He slowly moved them up to my the back of my bra. He moved his fingers underneath the back clasp. He broke apart the kiss. He whispered in my ear 'Are you sure you're ready?' I responded with 'Let's keep it PG-13 for tonight' with a grin.

He pushed his lips back into mine. It sounds cliché to say that our bodies fit together like puzzle pieces, but it is like that. Actually, its more like the opposite of that. We were the negative space in the rest of the puzzle. The missing pieces. The rest of society is out living their lives, but we are here, living in the moment, separated from the world. Just the two of us; lost in reality.

Important A.N. wow I loved this chapter ALOT but the important news is that after I upload the first 10 parts I'm going to go on a break and type the rest. AND THAT ENEDING WAS SAPPY AND I LIKE IT
