Two Times Better

Coming home

The hospital let me out a day later to make sure I was stable enough to go home. Aaron was very careful with me. He felt as if I was fragile glass. They got all of the pills out if the cabinet and his them from me encase i would try anything again.

"Aaron, I'm not going to try to kill myself again." I said.

"I know I'm just being safe for now." He told me. I rolled my eyes and smiled. He may be protective but that's why I love him. I went into my room and I found my bed made and cleaned. It's like I have housekeepers. Aaron's parents took care of me like their own. I went and sat on my bed. It was so much more comfortable than the hospital bed. I lied my head on the pillow and closed my eyes. I was almost asleep when I heard my door open and I opened my eyes. It was Aaron.

"You tired?" He asked me.

"Very." I said closing my eyes once again. I felt him slide under the covers and put his arms around me. I nuzzled my head in his chest and he kissed my head.

"I love you, Ana." Aaron said.

"I love you too." I said and fell into a deep sleep.

When I woke up, I felt colder than when I went to sleep. Then I noticed Aaron wasn't there. That explains it. I got out of bed and looked in the mirror. Woah. Total bed head! I brushed my hair and went downstairs. I saw Aaron and his mom in the kitchen.

"Hey there sleepy head." Aaron said teasing me. I gave him a look that made him laugh.

"What are you guys doing?" I asked when I saw a bunch if baking supplies on the counter.

"We are baking of course!" Aaron's mom said. Her delightful tone made me smile.

"Why?" I asked.

"Why not? There is never a wrong time to bake!" Aaron's mom said cheerfully. I laughed and agreed.

"Wanna help?" Aaron asked me.

"Duh!" Aaron laughed and I walked over.

"So, what are we baking?" I asked.

"Chocolate cake."

"Mmm. My favorite!" I said.

"Well kids, you can finish the cake. I have to go for a while."

We got started with the cake and of course when we had the batter bowl, we ate the extra batter.

"You got a little something there." I told Aaron pointing right above his lip where there was a little bit of chocolate batter. He tried to get it but he couldn't.

"Here, let me get it for you." I said then I leaned over and kissed him. What was supposed to be kissing turned into a make out session. After 10 minutes, we finally stopped. The best part about a kiss (or make out session) is the smile afterwards. The cake was done in about an hour and we put the icing on.

"Mom! Dad! Come down here! Our masterpiece is done!" Aaron said. I laughed at him saying it was a "masterpiece". I'm not sure how good it will be. They came down and we all tried the cake. It was actually really good! Aaron and I were very proud of ourselves. Today was actually a very good day for just coming our of the hospital. I'm just worried about tomorrow. School.
