Forbidden Lovers

Chapter 6

"It's just.....you do this. You tell girls you like them, you lead them along for a while and then you get bored and dump them. Like you did to Emma." He looked hurt at this, and I knew I'd stepped too far.

"It's different with you Skyla, I promise. I've never felt like this about anyone," he touched my hand and I felt sparks run up my arm, "I know you feel it too." 

"DANIEL BABY ARE YOU OKAY!" A blonde girl ran through our room, he dropped my arm like it was a hot rod. She click-clacked due to huge stiletto heels. Her pink micro mini was riding up dangerously far and she pushed past me to Daniel, kissed him straight on the lips. He hugged her. She then sat down and I finally saw who it was.

Marissa.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Um, hey Marissa. Why aren't you in school?" Daniel rubbed his neck nervously, and I found myself blushing at how adorable it was. Damn it, Skyla, pull yourself together girl! Marissa laughed a high-pitched girly screech that left my ears tingling.

"Oh babe, don't joke with me like that! Of course I ditched school for you, no biggy," she turned to me with a look of digust, "Why is Craig's kid sister here, like ew." I glared at her. I was prepared to pull those fake extensions out, there and then. 

"Skyla, you'd better get going now. You have your operation soon and you need to be prepped for it." I was greeted with the likes of Doctor Hunt, but not before my heart was torn apart by the sight of Daniel kissing her.

*That night*

 I woke up for the fifth time that night, I just couldn't get comfortable with my leg in an itchy cast that weighed a ton, that was elevated above me. I pulled and pulled until it was free of the device holding it mid-air, and then I grabbed the weelchair next to me. I swung my heavy leg to the side and heaved with all of my upper body strength, shifted my body into the chair. 

I sped down the corridor, not sure of where I was going. The image of Daniel and Marissa came into my head, and I found tears streaming down my cheeks. I found myself in front of Daniel's door, my hand touching the cool handle. What would I even say to him? He had a girlfriend! I was nothing to him, he had shown me that. I sighed, and dropped my hand abruptly. I heard footsteps behind me and froze, shit I had been caught by a night worker.

"Skyla?" The deep, soothing voice of Daniel reached my ears. I spun myself around to face him.

"Um, hi." 

"Hi. Couldn't you sleep either?" I shook my head at him, and he opened the door, gesturing for me to wheel myself in. I badly wanted to turn around and leave, I knew that this was treacherous ground to be in. 

My chair bumped as I entered his room. He sat down on his bed, and I wheeled myself next to him. 

"Skyla about Marissa..." 

"Look I get it. Everything you said was bullshit because I'm a lost cause and you have a girlfriend." 

"You don't understand. I've liked you for a while, Skyla. You're stunning and beautiful and yes I have a girlfriend but when I look at you I forget her, I see the most flawless person I've ever met." 

"But what about Marissa?" 

"To hell with her! I've never liked her, one time I got drunk and she was at the same party as me. Woke up not remembering a thing, suddenly I'm her boyfriend and I can't get rid of her." He raked his hands through his hair sexily, it made me itch to do that to him.

"So are you going to dump her then?"

"Yes, Skyla. I would go to the ends of the earth for you, and the fact that I caused you pain just because of my stupidity," he stroked my cheek, sending sparks along it in a trail, "makes me want to kill myself. I never want you to be hurt, you don't deserve it. I know I've never shown my feelings, but now..I can't imagine it any other way." He looked so vulnerable, I wanted to kiss him and hold him tight and make sure that he was never hurt again.

"But what about Craig? And my family? They'd never approve of us!" Tears were in my eyes. He stroked my hair, and I reached up and pulled his hands down. 

"Forget that, we could persuade them and eventually they'd adore the idea. Just think about you and me. How we feel. I know that we don't know each other that well. But I have that covered, we get out of here soon. I'll end it with Marissa, let me take you on one date. One date to persuade you that we are worth fighting for." His lips were begging me to kiss them.

"I'll do it." He smiled at me. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Oh! Mmm yeah! Faster!! Come on push like your life depends on it!" I screamed, going at 110 miles an hour and it was fun (rude minded people-it's not what your thinking!) the hospital rooms sped past me and the wall approached, suddenly we rounded a corner and came to an abrupt stop in my room. I giggled, catching my breath. 

"Was that fast enough for you madam?"

"Oh yes sir that was great."

"I could make you go faster though," he smiled a devilish grin, and I reached to the bed, grabbed the uncomfortable pillow, and whacked him over the head with it. 

"I surrender, I surrender!" He put his hands up and then went down on his knees, made his eyes cute and wide and put his hands together, pleading. I hit him over the head once more, and he started tickling me under my armpits. I was immediately gasping for breath because I was giggling hysterically.

"No-Daniel-Please-Stop!" I gasped. He finally did, and I punched his arm playfully. 

"So tickling makes you weak, huh?" He had a cheeky twinkle in his eye.

"Kind of." I gave him a shy grin.

"So Skyla has a weakness? Who would have guessed it!" 

"Don't make me hit you again!" He laughed and put his hands up in surrender.

"Okay, okay truce!" I smiled at him.

"Did you have to have an alcohol test done?" I said suddenly. He blinked at my randomness, and then he thought for a minute.

"They said I would have to have one, and then I never did so I don't know. I just don't want to get into trouble."

"I know. I feel guilty, I'm the one who suggested drinking. My leg is my own fault." I looked down at the purple cast. He looked at me, and then he stood up.

"Where are you going?" He didn't answer me and then he went to my chart next to my bed. 

"What on-" He took the pen from it, and then he sat back down on the bed. 

"Put your leg up." Bewildered, I did as he asked me to, and propped my leg up on the bed, slightly painfully. He took the lid off the pen and then started to write on my cast. He put the pen back afterwards, and then he walked back to me, kissed my forehead, and then he walked out of the room noiselessly. I looked down at my cast.

It's not your fault. Remember that. You weren't the one driving. Stay flawless, and if you say that it was your fault......I know your weak spot
