the sound of a man's voice humming woke me up, he also traced circles on my thumb, soft and delicate shapes, almost like he didn't want to hurt me anymore then I already was. I still kept my eyes shut, scared of reality.
"good evening, sweetheart" he spoke.
Ashton.
Only Ashton calls me sweetheart.I flutter my eyes open, his curly brown hair was spread all over his face, his breath smelt disgusting and his B.O wasn't any better.
"you smell absolutely terrible" I whisper
a large grin spreads across his face, his dimples coming out even more.
"considering I have been sitting here for th-"
he cut himself off, only to yawn and take a sip of his hot beverage.
"Leila, I've been sitting here for the past 3 days, waiting here every second in case you woke up, I only slept when the doctors gave you more pain relief, and I only left the room when Emily was here, but I was never far away"
this is why he is my best friend.
I felt the tears slowly dripping down my face, but I swiped them away before he could notice how in love I was with him.
A doctor with blue scrubs interuppted my thoughts, his smile reassured me that i was going to be okay with the pain medication slowly dripping into me.
"take a shower, or use a flannel at least, you smell worse then I probably do"
he giggled and then my eyes became to even resist the urge to stay awake.
