The New Girl

Chapter 64 - "I wouldn't have it any other way."

Aurora Jones.

The seconds ticked by as we stared into each other's eyes and I could feel the want to see him that I had just... disappear. Before I was finally able to open my eyes, all I wanted was to look into his. I couldn't understand why I felt so... disappointed now.

He quickly stood up and wrapped his arms around me, "I'm so glad you're okay, songbird." Jon's deep voice whispered into my ear.

I breathed in his familiar scent, the scent of cologne mixed with a touch of the outdoors.

"Now why would I ever be considered a songbird, Jon?" I asked as the little birds danced across the sky.

Jon had planned a romantic picnic for our six month anniversary which I was the sweetest thing. We had talked about having a picnic for a while, but we never really got around to it. So he brought it upon himself to make it happen and I'm glad he did.

We had been comparing each other to animals. It's pretty odd, but that's just the way we are. We always thought we were completely different from other couples and I'm positive we are...

He chuckled and wrapped his arms around me, "You're sweet, gentle and you have the voice of an angel." Jon whispered.

I rolled my eyes and look back at him, "Jon Snow, what are you up to?" I giggled.

Jon flashed his perfect smile as he rested his chin on my shoulder, "You asked a question and I simply answered."

The love we felt for each other was practically radiating from our bodies and I couldn't be happier. I never once thought I'd catch the attention of the popular farmer's boy, but here I am sitting in his arms.

"You know what? That's going to be your new nickname."

I turned to look at him and noticed a familiar smirk on his face, "You're too good to me." I smiled before his lips enveloped mine.

I smiled at the memory, but I couldn't feel the same feelings I felt then. Don't get me wrong, I do love Jon. I don't think I'll ever stop loving him, but it's not the same kind of love as it once was. It couldn't be, especially since we live so far from each... other..

That's when it hit me... what the hell was he doing here?!

"Not that I don't love your company or anything, but why are you here?" I asked, trying not to sound rude.

He shook his head and flashed me a smile... a smile that would always make me melt. I was expecting the same feeling to rush through me, but, again, I felt nothing-

"I usually call your dad for updates on how you are. I just happened to call on the one day you got hurt and I couldn't just stay home and try to forget it... I had to see you were okay." He sighed.

He gave me a look, a look he'd always give me when he said he loved me. It hasn't changed, not even a bit. I could still see that sparkle in his eyes, feel the love and affection radiating from his body... I can't believe the feelings he has for me haven't changed.

I looked over at my father, "You would give him updates on me? It hasn't been that long." I laughed.

A sharp pain rushed through my head. I quickly placed my hand on my head only to make the pain worst, "What the..?" I muttered under my breath

It was then that I noticed the large bed I was laying in, the bright white walls surrounding me and a monitor beeping at my left. I wasn't on my bed in my room, but how come I can't remember how I got here?

"Dad... what happened? Why am I here?"

The monitor beside me began beeping at a quicker pace as my palms grew sweaty. My dad quickly made his way to my side, "Honey, I need you to calm down. I know this doesn't make any sense to you right now, but that's okay. I'll do my best to explain."
