I smile at him and he smiles back.
"There is no way I can do it without you David."
"Come on. Let's go home."
I nod and we start walking, home, together.
Why does everything suddenly seem so real, and beautiful?
Why did I have to wait so much for this?
•
We're walking down the streets, holding hands, my head laying on his shoulder, while the clouds continue to cry.
But, nothing can ruin this moment for me.
•
We get home and I enter our room first.
I have been away for just a couple hours, but I missed this place so much.
•
"I missed this so much."
My eyes start tearing up, as he smiles at me.
I trust him.
"So, Netflix and Pizza?"
"You get the movie ready, I'll order the pizza!"
•
David is in the phone, ordering the pizza, and meanwhile, I open Netflix.
I am laying in his bed, and David, who just finished the call, comes and lays besides me.
We both pick something to watch, as we slowly start cuddling.
I lay my head on his chest, and he wraps his arm around me.
He kisses my forehead, and I wrap my arm around his waist.
"You are so comfortable." I say.
"Are you calling me fat?"
"Yeah."
We both laugh, when he suddenly gets a call.
"Who is it?"
"It's just the pizzeria, don't worry."
"Uhm, hello? Yeah, that's me."
"Oh really? But why didn't the other guy tell me earlier?"
"Okay then."
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, it's just that the delivery guy is sick, and they don't have a replacement for now. I have to go and pick the pizza up."
"Okay, I'll be ready in 10 minutes, and we can go there."
"No no no, it's okay. The pizzeria isn't that far away, and besides, you have to stay here and watch a couple more episodes to catch up."
"Are you sure you don't want me to come with you?"
"I'll be here before you start missing me."
He leans in and gives me a kiss.
"I love you so much." he says.
I smile at him and he smiles back.
•••
It's been half an hour, and he isn't home yet.
I am so worried...
He is not picking up his phone, and I don't know where that pizzeria is..
I don't know what to do.
Suddenly my phone rings. Thank God it's David.
"HELLO?! DAVID?!"
"No, miss, uhm..can I talk to.. Liza?"
"This is her.."
"Miss, I am Dr.Dawson, and I regret to inform you that Mr.Dobrik has been found in a very delicate condition..."
•
It's just terrifying watching David like this..when a couple hours ago he was fine..and we were happy..after so much time.
"Liza.." he starts mumbling as he slowly opens his eyes.
"I'm here.." I say between tears.
"My.." he stops and his eyes close again.
"DAVID! DAVID!" I start whisper/yelling.
I get out of the room and try to find a doctor..
•
The doctor finally comes out of the room.
"He is fine now, but he has to be careful. He has a slight fracture in the back of his skull, and it's serious because it wasn't treated on time, and it got worse because the aggressor damaged it more during the fight."
"Can..I see him..?" I say between tears.
He nods and I enter the room again.
David immediately looks at me.
I run up to him and give him a huge hug.
He hugs me back tells me to stop crying.
"It's my fault.."
"What?! Liza no. I don't allow you to say that."
"But it is."
"Please, just stop. I really need to tell you something."
His face was paralyzed as he looked into my eyes.
"But please, before I tell you what happened, you have to promise me you that you are always going to believe in me, no matter how harsh things get,...and you are going to take care of yourself."
"What did you do.?.."
