My soulmate and I were happy together. We studied furiously the next few days, finals looming over us like ghosts. By the day of the test, we were absolutely exhausted and trudging into class in a zombie like state. I sat at my desk and sighed, flipping through the pages in front of me. The words blurred and danced in front of my eyes, but I just shook my head, dismissing it as a sign of fatigue. Not a minute later, my hands shot up to calm the pounding rhythm in my head, the pain so loud I couldn't think. I shivered. Behind me, Will put his hand on my shoulder. "You okay?" I nodded. "Just cold. And a little dizzy, but I'm good." He nodded firmly and I turned back to my test. A, C, circle 1 and 2- my vision dimmed and I slumped out of my chair. I heard someone calling my name, breaking the silence of testing with a shout and a chair screeching against the floor as it was knocked back. Footsteps pounded on the floor, and the next thing I knew, I was being lifted. I tried to say something, but I had no control over my body. I knew it was Will who had me in his arms, I'd know that grip anywhere. Right before I blacked out completely, I groaned and shifted, then fell back limp.
I woke up back home. Will pressed a wet cloth to my head and had covered me in blankets, which I was grateful for. "Sorry." I managed. Will cleared his threat. "For what?"
"The lines in your forehead. You're worried."
"It's okay." He took my hand. "But are you okay?" I nodded. "It's cold." He squeezed my hand. "Fever. Sleep." He went back to pressing the cool cloth on my forehead. I nodded and closed my eyes. "Can you sing a song for me?" I mumbled. He was silent. A moment later I heard his voice start up quietly, singing a slow, soothing song that I had only heard a few times before. "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy, when skies are grey," I inhaled, his voice filling my mind. "You'll never know, dear, how much I love you, please don't-"
"I love you." I muttered, curling closer to him and stealing his heat. He pressed a kiss to my head. "Please don't take my sunshine away." Will pulled me into him, nuzzling my face with his and peppering me with little butterfly kisses. I smiled and pecked my own to his lips. Then I drifted off, comfortably nestled in Wills arms.
But I didn't know what morning would bring, and I didn't think I was prepared to find out.
