Not Young Anymore(Ness x Lucas)

Cry, Learn, Live, Laugh, Love

Lucas's Pov 

I stared at the ceiling of the hospital, my eyes trying to a custom to the light. The others had to leave the hospital because I "needed rest". Personally, I hope I'm leaving this place soon because it is very depressing here without anybody there to comfort me. I'm one of those people who just doesn't like places where people die.

Honestly, I'm glad I am alive. If I didn't live...what would Ness do? He would be very sad, wouldn't he? I want the best for him...for us. And thank god I'm here now.

I turn to look at the teddy bear Ness gave me. It was big, white, and it had a red heart in the middle of it. I smiled. Seeing that lets me know that I'm ok and he loves me. That's all I really need. And my brother of course...plus bonnie...and my friends. NEVER MIND THOSE THINGS THE POINT IS I LOVE NESS AND THAT'S ALL THAT COUNTS!

I looked at the door, temptation to walk out coming over to me. I want Nessie now...like right now. It's so lonely here...wait what time is it?

I turned to look at the clock, my eyes squinting. It was 1:34 am, around the time I go to sleep. At least on a less busy day. 

I huffed and began to try and sleep. It would normally be no problem but, I have to much on my mind. I also felt as though I wasn't safe in this hospital. Are you stupid or are you stupid? Doctors are supposed to help you. Don't be paranoid. I mentally rolled my eyes. I swear that one of the doctors here is going to cut me open and play in my insides.

"I hope I'm not interrupting you.". Shocked, I turn to face the person who spoke to me. Paula!? . Her arms had many bandages. She had on the hospital cloths and her legs, scratched and bruised. And worst of all...her eyes were bandaged, blood stained the white bandage while her hair remained uneven and burnt. Hey if her eyes are bandaged...how'd she get here? She probably got help or something.

"I know I'm the last person you want to talk to," she said. Her voice was raspy and hard to hear. It sounds as though she going to lose her voice..forever. "I just wanted to say something that-" she coughed, "...that has been on my mind for a while.".

"Ok I'm listening."

She turned my direction 

"Really?"

"Really."

"Well then...ok. I-I'm truly, deeply, and gravely sorry for all of this. I am very...possessive and obsessive. I tend to hate it when something doesn't go my way so, I try to do something about it. The truth is...I feel empty without love so I try and get it. Although every time I try it always ends up wrong but, never this bad. I'm insane, deraged, and very strange. And, again, I'm terribly sorry for this whole mess. It's just-"

I cut her off

"It's ok Paula."

"...No I-"

"TRULY Paula. It's ok. I understand."

"Do you...really?"

I look towards the ceiling

"Yeah. Sometimes you'll do anything to get love. Even if it kills you. But, you just have to...Cry, learn, live, laugh, and love."

I turned towards her. Tears streamed from her bandages and down her soft face. She smiled and walked towards my bed. She must've had good hearing to know where I was. 

She digged her face in my blankets, clenching the sheet. I raised my hand and stroked her hair, my eyes filling with water.

"I'm sorry ." she said,"I'm oh-so-very sorry.". I smiled and responded with,"I forgive you Paula...I forgive you.". I lifted her head up,"Please don't beat yourself up about this."

"I-I'll try not to."

"Good."

I'm pretty sure I made a new friend. And she has grown and learned a lot from this point. I hope she realizes.
