"dan, i've fathomed it all out." he looked up at me, standing up. "what do you mean?"
"ok, so you know how the hospital have apparently been doing some weird things to patients, how everyone seems freakishly quiet?"
he nodded, motioning for me to continue.
"they have this implant in their head, something that controls them. and so do you. every night at exactly 7:50pm, you click. something in your brain switches off and you fall into a different person."
his eyes were wide, tears threatening to spill out. "so- there's really nothing wrong with me?" my heart shattered with glee. he looked so hopeful, so happy. so glad he wasn't having to stay here. i shook my game as, grabbing his hands in mine and smiling. "no."
his next move shocked me. his large hands cupped my cheeks and my lips were suddenly connected with his. my soft lips contrasted with his chapped ones, making me smile slightly into the kiss. then everything clicked and i realized.
it was him keeping me here. it wasn't that i needed the money or that i wanted to do the job i have always dreamed of. it was him. and i hate to say it, but i'm deeply, and madly in love with him. and i ignored it this whole time.
when he pulled away, i rested my forehead on his. he started laughing, his smile lighting up the whole room. "i just kissed you. i love you. i'll be free, oh my god."
i was shocked with his confession, but i was more happy for him than shocked. i watched as he danced around his room. i giggled, telling him to be quiet but he wouldn't listen. glee had taken over his body. then he stopped.
"how will i get the chip out?" i smiled, "have you forgotten that i studied to be a doctor for a year?"
he walked towards me, engulfing me in a tight hug. "thank you so much, delilah."
i shook my head, kissing him on the cheek. "anything, dan."
