Aira sat on the cold steel chair just near the bedside of Ian's body. Tears streaming endlessly down her now soaked cheeks.
"Aira, you comin'?" Kurt asked for what seemed like forever, Aira shook her head, Kurt sighed, exasperated.
"Aira, sooner or later, you have to leave this room." He finally snapped, Aira shook her head, "How can I? He did the same thing to me. He waited for me. And then-"
"Then what?" Kurt interrupted, "Then when he wakes up, he finds you laying on the floor just because you haven't eaten for days or if ever, months?!" Aira's gaze fell to the floor.
"He was here with you, yes, he was. But he was also taking care of himself, Aira. He didn't collapse because he stayed beside you 24/7."
"You dragged him outta the room just to make him eat, didn't you?" She questioned, looking at Kurt's eyes. A playful smirk played across his lips, "Yes, I did."
"And you're about to do the same exact thing you did to him to me?" Then, there it was. The super rare Kurt Ekberg's cheerful, carefree smile, "Yes, I am. Are you going with me willingly or I have to use force?" He questioned, cocking his head to the side.
Aira sighed, "Fine. Let's go." She groaned, standing up and walking to where Kurt was.
As they bought snacks from 7Eleven, she saw her own reflection at the store's mirror. She saw a pale looking ghost who's hair as messy as it can be. Its eyes shallow and red. Cheeks still stained from tears. Her lips as pale as ever. She looked . . . horrendous.
"Aira?" Kurt called as he waited by the door, "Are you coming or I'm gonna have to drag you out?" Aira furrowed her eyebrows, "What's up with you and you're suddenly bossy?" She grunts, walking beside him and walking back to the hospital.
"Suddenly? Bossy? Aira, I don't know what you're talking about." He sighed, suddenly tired, Aira furrowed her eyebrows, knitting it together, "Ya can't fool me, Kurt. I know something's up. Why are you so bossy? It's like you're on your period or something." Aira grunts.
"Ms.Callaghan." he warned, oh, snap. Aira thought, she bit her lower lip, seeing as her friend's eyes darkened, "Aira, don't bite that lip. You're making me much more pissed." He growled, Aira sighed, "Okay, what's up? You've been acting strange lately. What happened?"
Kurt finally sighed, "I can't . . . I can't seem to accept the fact that Ren . . . is Ian's long lost brother. We . . . the three of us would go out together when you're out for summer camp. Enjoying ourselves."
"Enjoying yourselves as I aimlessly try to catch some sleep at summer camp?" Aira stated with a raised eyebrow.
Kurt smiled as he cock his head to the side, "We aim to please, don't we, Ms.Aira Callaghan?"
Aira groaned, "I hate it when you're right, you know?" Kurt laughed and nodded, "That's why I study, genuis. I like it when I'm right. It makes you really, really pissed."
Aira rolled her eyes, "Yeah, genius." As she opened the door, she saw a man sitting up. A nurse beside him, helping with his needs.
His dark raven hair messily tousled across his head, his eyes that are weary and shallow from sleep and tears. Lips that are pale and trying to regain its usual color.
"Ian."
