Sincerely, Yours. A Jackson Guthy Love Story

Chapter 5: State of Dreaming

The next couple of days, flew by, almost by seconds...or at least that's what it felt like to Leah. She could barely remember going to school or even waking up honestly. All she could remember was being with Jackson. She remembered holding his hand and walking down the street and the sensation it brang to her heart. But what about the rest of the time.....she couldn't quite remember anything. All she knew solidly was that she was laying in her bed with the lights off and she was slowly drifting to a deep, deep, deep.............

*BEEEP..........BEEEP.......BEEEP........BEEEP.....BEEEP......BEEEP......*

Leah swung her arm to her left, in order that she would grab her phone to shut her alarm off.Leah wasn't too fond of buzzers and could've sworn she set it to her music.She missed desperately, and she grunted hating that she would have to actually look to see where it was. She opened her eyes unwillingly and started slow but suddenly realized something terribly wrong. She wasn't in her room. She started breathing panicked and heavily until actual tears were rolling down her face. She looked around finally, having been too shocked to move previously. She saw that she was in a hospital room,but what scared her was the unknowing length of her stay there. She threw her left hand on her forehead and was still breathing pretty heavily, something in her periphery moved.

"..wha....LEAH"

It was Jackson, who had been sleeping in the chair next to her hospital bed. She instantly startrd crying from the sudden confusion. Had the kiss in the auditorium happened? Or was it just a faint dream? She didn't know. It was too hard to tell by the way Jackson was comforting her, it could go both ways.

"Shh...shh...it'll be ok"

"What is going on!" she managed to choke out on tears.

He had climbed upon the bed and rocked her.

"Shh" as he kissed her forehead. Maybe she had had the moment in the auditorium, but she had to make sure.

"um..jack...why am I here?"

"Oh, you collapsed at school"

This didn't tell her much.

"I'm so sorry...but I need to know exactly what happened"

"Well...you were all flipping out an hyperventilating at Mr.B's door."

Crap, she thought.

"But then...I saw you and took you to the audit-"

Leah automatically smiled and grabbed Jackson's unsuspecting face and kissed him happily. She then pulled him close and whispered,relieved

"It wasn't a dream"

Jackson squeezed her then set her up right. His face looked a little frazzled.

"Well! that was...something"

Leah smiled.

"What wasn't a dream?"

And her stomach dropped.
