Beautiful Minds (NG)

Chapter Twenty Seven

*NASH'S POV*

I have to go talk to the doctor soon. He's afraid El won't ever come out of this funk, and she'll have something wrong her whole life. And I can't let her live with that. So I'm finding out how the drug works.

"Common flu symptons, accompanied by seizures, muscle deterioration, loss of memory, cancer and other serious diseases." My jaw mus've dropped to the floor, for the doctor looked concerned.

"So uh.... Is all of that gonna happen to her?"

"Hopefully not. The way things are going she might experience a little memory loss but thats it."

I sigh in relief, nodding my head. He may not be positive, but It's something.

I turn around and walk back to El's room, where she is reading some book. I open the door to see her looking straight up at the ceiling, her face wrinkled.

"El?"

"What"

She turns to look at me, furrowing her brow.

"What are you doing?"

She carefully gets up, keeping one hand on the bed at all times, and stands before me. She reaches to the left of me, and shakes her head.

"Nash I can't see."

"What?"

"You look like a white blob with brown hair." I sit her down, leaving the room for the doctor. When I find him, I let him know what happened and he says he will be in shortly. Shortly my ass, she can't see.

"Knock knock." I say, opening the door.

"I thought you went for the doctor?"

"I did."

"But you just left like a minute ago?"

"No?"

"You gave me these flowers, kissed me and left"

"What!"

I rush over to her side, reading over her shoulder.

"Hope you feel better soon. Jasper."

*EL'S POV*

I feel like I'm going to throw up as he reads the card. How could I be so stupid? I let Jasper come in here. I let him kiss me..

He kissed me.

The bed shifts beside me and an arm drapes around my shoulders.

"Nash I'm scared. He's completely changing our lives."

"I know. But we will get through this. He will be put in jail by the end of the summer. I promise you."

I nod my head, reaching out and tracing the features of his face until I find his lips. He leans in, gently kissing me and wiping the hair out of my face.

I turn my head, looking around at everything. White dot here or a brown square shape there.

I sigh in frustration and lay back on my bed, only to find myself half on the floor and with Nash holding on to me. He pulls me up and lays me straight, sitting on the edge of the bed. Tears brim my eyes as he leans down, gently kissing my forehead.

"Don't cry baby. It's going to be ok. I'll be right here the whole time." He buries his head in the crook of my neck, gently kissing there.

"Nash?"

"Yeah?"

"Will you upload the couple tag video?"

"Of course I will."
