I kissed him. Holy fuck I actually kissed him! And he kissed me back. I was so happy I didn't know what to do with myself.
I walked as calmly as I possibly could toward the nurse's station.
"Uh... excuse me? I was wondering when Jack was going to be released?"
"He won't be released for a few days. He's starting new anxiety medication and we need to monitor his reaction."
"He isn't already on anxiety meds?"
"No. He's taking anti-depressants and vitamins."
Vitamins? They only give you vitamins if you have an eating disorder... Fuck! There was no way in hell I was ever letting Jack eat, alone again.
"Thanks."
I walked back to Jack's room, furious at him and at myself for never noticing how thin he was.
I entered his room, ready to yell at him for treating his body so horribly, only to find he had fallen asleep.
I sighed, walked over to his bed, and kissed his forehead gently.
"I'll see you later Jacky," I whispered.
I left his room and went to eat breakfast.
