Don't Give Up On Me

Chapter 14

"What are you doing in my room?"

"Thea? When did you wake up?"

"Are you cuddling my pillows?"

"When did you get released from the hospital?"

"So are you just going to keep answering my questions with another question or are you going to get up and hug me?" I run up to hug her and I squeeze her tight to make sure she's real.

"Are you trying to kill me?"

"Hahaha no I missed you and I didn't think I'd ever get another chance to touch you or hear your voice."

"You're so dramatic! What do you want to do today?"

"Anything you want to do I'm just glad you are awake and home. Where are your parents?"

"They're still sleeping."

"What time is it?"

"Six in the morning."

"What! Why are you up so early?"

"I don't want to sleep anymore."

"I don't want you to sleep anymore either."

"That's what I thought! Let's go watch the sunrise!"

"Yeah sounds perfect." We leave the house and get into my jeep and drive to the beach when we arrive we walk down to the end of the pier and barely catch the sunrise.

"Look Jordan look! It's so beautiful! I never thought I'd see this again!" Thea staring at that sunrise is the most beautiful thing in the whole world, and I'm glad I didn't lose her.

"Thea, can I ask you something?"

"Yeah what is it?"

"Did you mean what you told Tatyana?"

"It depends; I tell that girl everything you are going to have to be more specific."

"About liking me?"

"It's more than like Jordan; I love you."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"I gave you signs and you kept blowing them off, so I took it as you not having the same feelings."

"Not true Thea I have always loved you since sixth grade."

"Well that's good now we can finally be together." Suddenly dark clouds roll in and Thea looks worried.

"Thea what's wrong?"

"Only you can save me."

"Save you from what?"

"From..."

"Jordan! Jordan! Wake up stupid!!!" I wake up to Tatyana violently shaking me.

"What?"

"Were you drooling?" She looks at Laine, "Was he drooling?"

"Haha yeah, he was! When Thea wakes up we gotta remember to tell her not to use that pillow."

"Thea! Was it a dream? It felt so real! She felt so real!"

"What the hell are you talking about?" Tatyana looks at me weird, and Laine just ignores me.

"We gotta get going and set up for the fundraiser."

"What time is it?" I get up quick.

"Chill boi it's 9 in the morning my parents called and said to go to the park and start setting up they'll meet us there after they talk to Thea's doctor."
