C h a p t e r IV:

Simon gave me his bedroom to sleep. I could smell the cologne on his pillow. I have no clue where his sleeping. Maybe in the couch. Anyway, It's 2 o'clock in the morning and haven't slept. Maybe is because I keep thinking about Simon from the club. I know dumb, right? I tried closing my eyes and yet...nothing. I got out from bed and sneaked out quietly. Simon wasn't in the couch nor the kitchen. What am I thinking, what kind of person eats 2 o'clock in the morning?

Since, I'm not sleep I rather watch TV. I went over the couch and sat down. How the hell do you turned on the TV? Which remote is for the TV and which remote is for the radio? I took both remotes and turned on the small one from my left hand. 'ON'. "Shit." That wasn't the TV. 'OFF'. Now, I know which one is the TV remote. I turned on the remote from my right hand. 'ON'.

I flipped some channels and all of them were boring. "No." I whispered. "No...No....No." I sighed.

"That's a good channel." I got startled by the voice of Simon's. "You know that it's 2 a.m. in the morning?"

"I couldn't sleep." I replied back.

"Could I sit next to you? If not it's ok." He said.

"Sure." I blushed a little. I don't know why. "Which channel did you said that it was good?" I asked.

"TBS channel." He replied back.

"I'm sorry." I said.

"What?" He said confuse.

"I'm sorry that I didn't remember you." -

"You remember it?" He questioned me.

"Yeah. I had things in my mind and it's hard to remember things. For example, you." He chuckles. "What's so funny?" I smiled at him.

"Nothing. Just...never mind." He said while scratching his neck.

"No, tell me."-

"That night in the club--" He pauses. "Um...I couldn't stop." He coughs.

"Let me guess you couldn't stop thinking about me?" I spoke fast. He silent. Now, I feel guilty. Was he going to say that or something else? "I'll take that back." I blushed. I looked away from him. 'Stupid, stupid, stupid Jess.' I said inside on my conscience.

"Look, I couldn't stop thinking about you. That night you took my breath away. Now, that your here. I just can't believe that your here. Looking at me, talking to me..." He said. I couldn't look at him. "When you kiss me... you left. I thought that I will never see you again."

"I should go back to sleep." I stood up and he stood up as well. "Are you going to move or should I?"

"Jessica can you answer me one question? Since now, you remember me...will there be any chance that you could..." I interrupted him.

"Simon... I have things that I need to fix. I have no clue what happen to my friend Daniel. I don't know if his alive or dead. My stepfather is probably be looking for me. I'm sorry but I think there's no way you and me. We're different. Erase that day because it will never happen again." I walked around him and went in to his room and slammed the door.

*****

I woke up with the sun hitting on my eyes. I groan. I stood up and closed the curtains. I got dressed and went to the kitchen. Good, his not awake. I took the phone and dialed the number of Danny's. "Hello?"

"Is Daniel there?" I said.

"Is that you Jessica?" Daniel's mother asked.

"Yes. Have you seen Daniel? Is he okay?" I said anxious.

"Oh, Danny is in the hospital sweetie. For some reason, he fell some stairs and broke his wrist." She explain.

"So, his alive?" -

She chuckles. "Yes, sweetie. He's alive. He was asking for you but I couldn't reach you since you don't a cell-phone number." I breathe in and out.

"Is there any chance I could see him today?" I asked.

"Of course. Do you want me to drive you there?"

"No, thank you. I'll take a cab. Bye." I hanged up the phone and turned around to see Simon tying his tie. "How long were you standing there?"

"Two minutes or less." He said. He looks upset.

"Are you mad?" He nods with a 'no.' "Can you drive me to the hospital?"

"Sure." He takes the keys and down to the elevator we went.

Hospital

I entered the hospital entrance door and Simon followed me. I guess, Simon is now my bodyguard. "Is Daniel like your boyfriend or something?" I sighed when Simon asked that.

"No but his like my brother that I never had." I told him.

"How long did you know him?" He said. Simon clicked the up button and there the elevator opens up in front of us. We both went in.

"A long time." I replied back.

"Have you dated him before?"-

"Why are you asking too much questions?" I questioned him. I know his police officer but his not my father nor a babysitter nor a husband. The elevator went up to first floor and elevator opens and I ran up the nurse.

"Hi um... can you tell me where is my friend Daniel Kelsey room is?" I told her. She had a short blond curly hair and a pink uniform with a bear drawing sticker stuck in her right cheek.

She goes to the computer and types Danny's name. "Room B-45." She smiles.

"Thank you." I ran and ran to his room. I stopped and breathe in and out. I went in and saw him sleeping peacefully. "Danny?" I whispered at him. "Danny?" I cried. "I'm so sorry." I lay my head on his chest. "Danny..."

Simon POV

She cries "I'm so sorry." I saw her lay her head on his chest. "Danny..." She said closing her eyes. I feel bad that her friend is hurt.

"Do you want me to stay or leave?" I questioned her.

"Stay, please." She said grabbing my hand. I felt that little electricity when she touched me. How can we both me and her are different? Could it be the age differences, because I could wait for her. Could it be that we have different signs of horoscopes, because I don't believe is those bullshit things. What could it be that we both are different?
