[MOVIE: Five Feet Apart]
You arrange your med cart as you filmed the entire thing for your next video for your youtube channel. You were currently at the hospital for some treatment. It was hard to live a normal life as a CF'er patient but you did your best.
You were taking a stroll through the hospital since you got tired of staying inside the small room. You meet your friend half through the aisle looking outside the lights. "Got bored again?" Be asks as he stood 6 feet away from you. He was your best friend. "You know how it can be sometimes." You reply. He spots a boy from the other side of you. Giving you a look he turns around to leave to his room.
"Y/n right?" You hear someone ask. "How do you know my name?" You ask turning to look at the boy. He had fluffy fair and a pretty smile. "I got ways." He says giving you a smirk. You shake your head and walk the opposite direction to go back to your room. You stop by at the nurses desk to chat with them.
You see the new boy's room door open. It was messy and you didn't like it. You walk a little closer to check he name on the clipboard on his door. As you stand a fee feet from the door squinting your eyes to read the name a figure pops up from beside the door giving you a fright. "So you finally know my name now." He says with a cheeky smile. "You need to keep everything organized in there and follow the rules." You say instead. "I like to break the rules." He says with a little shrug. You shrug off annoyed as you leave.
Back in your room you cut down the ones you have done for the day in your notebook. Sighing you close it. It was the same thing everyday. A paper slides under your door. You pick it up to see a little drawing of you and a note.
"I'll not break the rules and keep things organized and all IF you let me draw you."
You smile as you read it but realizing things won't always be the same made you a bit sad but that was how things were going to be. No falling in love.
You somehow agreed to the boy's request. With your best friend on the lookout you arrange everything in his room.
You often spend time video calling each other. He had found your youtube channel and spends his time watching your videos trying to know you. He would smile every time your smiling face appeared on the screen. He knew the rules but he hated them.
"How do I ask her on a date?" Tom asks your best friend as they both sat in the lobby. "Paper flowers? Notes? A comic?" He says thinking. "Yeah. I think I got." Tom says excited.
He drew a simple comic strip and slid is under your door. Another note with a small poem with a place and time to meet him.
"Is this one see through?" You ask holding a dress in front of you. "Don't even think about it." You best friend says with wide eyes. You topped it off with a small jacket.
Sharp 7:30 and you were walking to the lobby. Tom stood with a balloon and a pool cue. He had gotten the idea from one of your videos and decided to take the risk for you. "Five feet apart." He says passing the pool cue with the balloon tied to it. You held onto the end while he held onto the other end. You walked around here and there trying best to hide from the nurses.
After a wonderful time with him you manage to get back into your room almost getting caught by the nurse.
Things take an unexpected turn with the sudden death of your best friend. You started to fall apart. You wanted to run. You call up Tom and ask him to join you to go out to see the lights but he was hesitant since it wasn't such a good idea. Ignoring everything he was saying you leave on your own.
Tom knew he has to go after you. He wanted you to be safe. He cared a lot.
"Y/n stop. It's too far. We have to go back now." He says finally catching up with you. "No. I want to go see the lights." You insists. He grabs your hand to stop you. "It's okay. You got gloves on." He says. Moving five feet apart you both sit on the bridge above the frozen pond. "Careful." He says every time he felt like you were gonna fall.
"It's frozen solid." You say walking down the bridge. With a loud crack on the ice you fall into the pond. "Y/n!!! Grab my hand." Tom says getting close to grab your hand. Finally pulling you out he does CPR on you as you were unresponsive. Despite the risks of infection he had to do it to save you.
After a while you and Tom get rushed to the hospital. He hears about your new lung transplant and advises you to take it with you refusing it. You wanted to spend more time with him and so did he too but with the risks being too high he knew things will not be normal.
You wake up from surgery to see Tom behind the glass door. He had prepared a little gift for you and a speech. He joins the two plugs lighting up the place.
"I know how much you wanted to see the lights and you couldn't get to see it. So I thought I'd bring them to you. Y/n, know that I really love you but I'm sorry that we can't be together. My drug trial isn't working and I don't want you to deal with me passing. Please close your eyes. I can't walk away if you are going to keep looking at me. Remember that I'll always love you." He says.
You close your eyes as you hugged the small book of drawings he has gifted you. Tom looked at you once more. Smiling as he walks away.
