My breath was on my throat. I couldn't keep my hand still as well. I was waiting for Jace's mom to come out of Jace's room. The time was killing me. I could hardly wait to see him.
The door swung open and the doctor and Jace's mom got out of the room. I stood up and approaached them a little closer. The doctor smiled to us before walking on the other direction.
"Jace is sleeping," his mom said.
I just nodded.
"Do you want to see him?" she asked, opening the door for me. "You can stay with him for a little while. I have to get something at the house and maybe you could--"
"I'll stay with him until you get back," I said, smiling.
"Thank you." Then she walked away now. I got in the room and stayed behind the door for a while.
What if he's awake now? What if he asked for me to leave? What if he didn't want to see me anymore? What if... what if... what if...
I didn't want to have any what if's anymore. I wanted something to be real.
With all the courage left I had for myself, I walked closer to Jace's bed. He was still sleeping and he looked like a baby. I couldn't still believe that I was in love with this guy now and in just a matter of a few weeks. Love really did some magic and I wanted that magic to be in my reality, not just a fantasy.
