Kyle's POV

I had never seen Nikki like this. Her eyes were red and puffy from the crying, and she had bags under her eyes. I handed her my jacket, worried that she was cold.

There was look in her eyes, that I had never seen before. Something that the crazy, bad ass, fun, naughty Nikki wouldn't be caught dead in. Vulnerability. Her face was impassive, like glass. One touch and she would break.

I lost track of time, as I held her close, while she slept. Her mother was going through a major surgery that would affect everything. It was a life or death situation.

'Hey it'll be okay' I said, taking her face in my palms.

She nodded, and wiped away her tears. A look if determination crossed her face. And I knew that she was going to be alright. I hugged her, and made her put her head in my chest. She was tired, and I could see it written all over her face. She hadn't eaten anything either, and that was not helping.

After an hour, the doctor came up to us, his face serious.

'Miss Brown, I have some good news. Your mother will be fine. She had a liver transplant, and needs bed rest for the next six months, but she's gonna be okay' he said.

Nikki looked happier than ever. She smiled that beautiful smile that sent a shock through my body.

'Thank you doctor. Can I see her, please ?' she asked.

'Not now, she's unconscious, due to the anesthesia that we gave her right before the operation. But you may see her in another hour or two. She won't be able to sit up, but she can talk and listen. Just don't stress her out too much, or worry her' he replied, smiling back.

It was gonna be okay. Things were actually looking up a little, and for some reason, I felt that was weird. Life was never perfect. I realized that Nikki still hadn't told me her answer.

Nikki's POV

I was so happy, I could burst with joy. Mum was gonna be okay. I thought back to how Kyle had asked me out, and my heart ached.

I couldn't believe it. The guy I loved, loved me back.

I looked around the hospital. It looked pretty posh, like a five star hotel almost. Even if mum did get better, she would have to stay in bed for six months, which meant that wouldn't be able to go to work. We were going to have a hard time paying off the bill of the hospital.

My heart sank at the thought. I brightened up a but though. As long as I had my mom, we would figure it out. We had to.

Josh's POV

'A car accident that was caused in Worthington road caused the deaths of two motorists, while three are battling for their lives. One of them, Melissa Brown, a single mother with one daughter, has been placed in the hospital for a liver transplant. That's all, for tonight's news' said the voice of Robert Mayers, top journalist.

I perked up my ears when I heard the name of Nikki's mum being announced on television. Oh no. I tried calling up her landline, but no one picked up.

I tried her cell, and after a couple of rings, she picked up.

'Hello ?' she asked, her voice sounding tired.

'Nikki, it's Josh' I said.

'Oh. Hi Josh' she replied timidly.

'Where are you ?' I asked.

'St. Sylvester's hospital' she said.

'I ll be there in five' I replied, grabbing my car keys.

Nikki's POV

I hung up, and sighed. I turned to look at Kyle, who had spent the night at a hospital, just to be there for me. Just to make sure I was okay. I took a deep breath, trying to figure out how to break the news to him.

'Kyle ?' I asked him, stirring him from his sleep. His gorgeous green eyes looked into mine, and they looked confused for a minute, then realizing where he was and what had happened, he smiled at me.

'Hmm ?' he continued.

'I think you should go. I mean, it's really late, and your parents might be worried.' I said, trying to be as calm as I could.

'Do you want me to go ?' he asked me, with a look that clearly showed he didn't want to leave me like this.

'It would be better. I m fine now, no need to worry' I replied softly.

'Okay, if you insist' he said, sighing as he got up.

Before I could figure out what had happened, Kyle leaned in and kissed me. I was left there, in a hospital corridor, with my mouth open, staring at the retreating figure. My lips tingled, as though I had received an electric current.

I stayed still for another minute, and then shook myself out of my dream like state. Josh was gonna be here in less than a minute, and I had to look as normal as possible.

I saw him coming from around the corner, and I sighed. Talk about the devil and the devil is here. I smiled, but even I knew it was a sad smile.

He came up to me, and hugged me. I was speechless for a minute. Why was he doing this ? Why was he being so damn sweet to me ? I just didn't understand.

When we broke apart, he looked into my eyes. I could see conflict in them, as though he was stuck in a war between his heart and his head.

But he was here. That had to mean something.

'Nikki, are you okay ?' he asked, concern written all over his face.

'Mum's gonna be fine. The doctor just said so. But he also did say that she will be needing bed rest for the next six months. I don't know how are we gonna manage all the expenses, Josh. Mum is the only family I have. I can't lose her' I replied, tearing up.

'It's all taken care of. My mom saw what happened on TV, and she said that you and your mom will be staying at out mansion till your mother gets better. My dad's secretary is just talking to the hospital cashier about the bills' he said, taking my face in his hands.

'Why are you doing this ?' I asked, confused.

'Cause I love you, and nothing can change that' he replied, and brought his lips crashing down on mine.

And just for that moment, I really thought things were gonna be alright.
