I yawned and slowly opened my eyes, squinting at the sunlight pouring through the window. Alex was still asleep next to me, and had moved much closer in his sleep. His hair was a disaster, and he was snoring softly.
This was how I wanted to wake up every morning for the rest of my life.
I started at him for a long time, just taking in how adorable he was and how happy he made me.
Suddenly, he breathed in deeply and opened his eyes.
"Morning Jacky," he mumbled, stretching his arms over his head.
He yawned hugely and rubbed his eyes.
"What time is it?"
I shrugged.
He yawned again and started to get out of bed, but I grabbed his arm and pulled him closer to me. I hid my face in the spot where his neck meets his shoulder.
"Jacky," he whined. "I'm hungry and you're tickling me."
I smiled and started poking his sides.
"Jacky," he giggled. "Stop."
I ignored him and kept poking him.
Suddenly, he pulled my head up, took off the oxygen mask, and kissed me.
I stopped poking him, closed my eyes, and wrapped my arms around his waist.
We kissed until I got dizzy and put the oxygen mask back on.
"I like you, Jack," he whispered in my ear.
I like like you, I signed.
He grinned and kissed my cheek.
"I'm going to ask the doctor when you can keave, okay?"
I nodded, unable to stop smiling.
He kissed my cheek again, climbed out of bed, and was gone.
I couldn't believe it. Alexander Garskath actually liked me back.
No way in hell the nurses would let me shut my door during free time now.
