All The Unknown

11.

you've taken over my brain 

I cough, painfully. 

There's no one in here. 

great

I blink my eyes once more, adjusting to the light. 

A few minutes go by, and I'm just chilling here. 

Maybe I'll take this silent time to sleep. 

I know I was just 'asleep' but I'm actually EXHAUSTED. 

I close my eyes, drifting into my brain. 

The door opens, my eyelids are too heavy to open. 

"Hey Abel" a voice says, Jax's voice, "Hopefully you wake up soon." 

His voice drops an octave, "they said a week at most, it's been a week and a half." 

His voice wavers, "I was thinking that when you wake up, I'd ask you out on a date. Maybe not a date date. But maybe to get lunch in the cafeteria at some point."

He stops talking, but he breathes heavily. 

I can feel his breath on my face and he kisses my cheek. 

My eyes shoot open, his eyes are closed. 

I turn my head, connecting our mouths. 

I kiss him, and he kisses back. 

Sparks are flying, my brain is spinning and fuzzy. His lips are soft, like feathers and he's a really good kisser. 

After what feels like forever he pulls away. 

A wave of shock, nervousness and panic cross over his face all at the same time. 

"I-I..uhm..you're awake!" he finally says

"I l-literally just w-woke up 20 minutes a-ago" I stutter, my voice box doesn't want to work. 

"oh. so you..you heard all that?" he asks, his face turning bright red

I nod, my neck stiff, "y-yeah. I co-could hear you and every-everyone else the entire t-time" I say, my own face turning pink

"the whole time?" he asks

"The who-whole time. I think you're pre-pretty cute t-too" I say, recalling what he said last time. 

"I'm uh..I'm gonna go get a uhm doctor" he says, nodding and rushing out the door. 

"wa-wait!" I call, "come h-here" he turns and walks over. 

I push myself up with my elbows and kiss him quickly. 

"okay, you ca-can go get th-that doctor n-now" I say, smiling

He nods, rushing out the door. 

I just did that....wow.
