Juliet saved the Bad Boy (COMPLETED)

SEVEN

JULIET

I didn't notice I fell asleep again. I looked around my room and saw Luke was still asleep on the stool with his upper body bent down on the bed. I stretched my limbs and yawned.

He stirred in his sleep and I might've woke him up.

"Do you want to sleep? I can go for a stroll real quick and let you have the bed" I said and offered him the bed

"Lets," He says simply and stands up offering me his hand. I looked up at him

"What?" I said

"Let's go to the garden. I'll push you" He says and helps me up by carrying me bridal style and placed me in my wheelchair. I looked at him moving things around to prepare us.

We went out of the room and he pushed me gently towards the direction of the garden. A few nurses stopped by to greet him and me but mostly it was him. Damn flirty nurses.

I guess growing up in the hospital was a plus with the dream he wanted. He looks so settled here, it's like he belongs here. He'll make a wonderful doctor in the future, damn I'm praying for the recovery of his patients. I'm sure they'd want their stay here extended if he was their doctor.

"here we are," He said and made sure the brakes were on. Can't have me rolling around do we?

"It's really relaxing here," I said as I closed my eyes and leaned back on my chair.

"It is, I used to play here all alone as I wait for my mom to finish her shift." He says softly as if reminiscing.

"What made you want to be a doctor?" I asked him

He mostly asks the questions but now I think I've earned the right to dig a little deeper.

"It was because of the kids I got to play with." He said and took a breath looking around the place "Imagine playing with a kid today and he'd be gone the next. I used to play with the patients here, and I'd wonder they went. My mom would just tell me they went home even if in reality they never got to." He said and looked at me sadly

"It's the thought of someone going away, it just didn't sit well with me. From then on, I wanted to become like my mom because I see how people thanked her, how they cried to her when she gets to help someone. I wanted to feel that too, like I at least did something right. I badly needed to know that hope exists." He said as he looked so deep into my eyes.

This boy. He has so many layers on him. At first glance, he'd look like the guy that can break your heart in pieces without even trying. But he can be sweet at times, like- really thoughtful.

"Well I look forward to seeing you roaming the halls one day," I told him and patting him on the shoulder

"You really believe me huh," he said as if he was amusing

"I may have known you for a month and a half. but I know a good person when I see one..although I'm really curious" I said and looked at him

"About?" He said and his gaze flickering on me for a second and looked back at the ground.

"I never saw this side of you in school, why's that?" I asked him

It was really a curiosity of mine. He had this different persona in school

"You just don't see things clearly because you're blinded by the hatred for the people I associate with," he said in one go as if preparing for this answer for a long time.

"That sums about it." I said sarcastically and rolled my eyes at him "It's not that, I mean.. I've always seen you. But you rarely interact with people, you just stay in the sidelines as everything starts to unfold in front of you. " I told him
