When he touched me, a shiver went to my body. His hands were warm and his kind eyes looked at me while he gave me a little smile. "Uhm... I'll give you directions." I say, him still holding my arm. He sees me looking at it, and he quickly lets go. "Oh uhm.. yeah. My car is over there." When we get there, he opens the door for me. "Thank you." He gets into his side and starts the car.
He puts on some music and I can hear him softly singing along. When I give him a few directions, I can feel him looking at me. He makes me nervous, in a nice way. "We're here, thank you so much for doing this." I tell him, pointing at our house. "No problem. Shall I wait here or can I come inside?" "What do you mean?" I ask him a little confused. "Well I happen to know that you need to go back there and that you're having a hard time. I think it would be much more complicated if you needed to walk to the hospital too." I look at him thankfully and tell him he can come inside if he wants.
"Do you want a cup of tea?" I ask him, pouring hot water into my cup. "Yes please, that'd be nice." I smile and pass him a cup. "Do you want to tell me what's on your heart?" I sigh. "There's not enough time in the world for that... besides, I need to get Grace's stuff." I stand up and walk upstairs. I grab the things she told me to grab and put them in a weekend bag. I try to lift it, but it's too heavy. I try to lift it again, but I can't. As I'm about to zip it open and put half of it in another bag, I feel a hand on my shoulder. "Let me get that for you." I step away and let him grab the bag. "Is this everything?" He asks me. I nod. "Yes, this is it. Have you finished your tea?" I owe him so much right now. "Yes I have, thank you for that. Shall we go?" I nod and put on my coat. "By the way, you don't need to thank me. I need to thank you for doing this. I won't believe you if you told me you didn't have other plans." I look at him with tears in my eyes. I can't believe that I start crying on the first day I meet my idol.
He pulls me into a hug and holds me. He strikes my back and the tears start streaming. Everything comes out. Everything that I held in because I didn't want Grace to see me cry. "Shhtt... it's alright.. everything will be alright..." his breath is warm and smells like mint. I hold him as strong and as close as I can.
He grabs a tissue from the table and wipes away my tears. "Come on babe, we're gonna visit Grace."
