A Cancer Story

Chapter 7

Once the food had arrived, you both sat down on the living room floor and started up the movie.  Once Logan had finished eating he wrapped his arm around you and pulled you close.  He knew exactly what you needed and you were thankful for that.  You lied your head on his chest and listened to the comforting sound of his heartbeat.  He was one of those few guys who understood what a girl was thinking and knew just what to do to help.  He only knew that you were very upset and you just needed some comfort.  Soon your eyes were getting very heavy and you were finding it very hard to stay awake.  You eventually just let your eyes just close.

Logan’s POV:

She looked so peaceful there lying asleep against my arm.  I wondered what could’ve ever caused her to get so upset.  This was not like her at to be so upset, she was usually very happy and bubbly.  Her smile had the ability to light up any room.  It was like she had the sun inside of her and everytime she smiled, it just shown through.  If it was someone to have hurt her, when I got through with them, they’d wish they never said hurt her in the first place.  I just sat there for awhile looking at her and how cute she was when she slept.  Soon the movie was over and I had to wake her up.  Although I hated to do so, she just looked so at peace, but i gently shook her arm and said her name several times.  Her eyes finally opened and she looked up at me with a sleepy face.  Her sleepy face was one of the cutest things ever.  It took almost everything in me not to lean over and kiss her.  I knew she wasn’t ready for a relationship yet and I was willing to wait for her.

You POV:

You were awoken by a gentle hand shaking you and a voice calling you out of your dream.  You looked up at Logan who was looking at you with a smile on his face.  You hid a yawn and then sat up “How long was I asleep?”

“Not long,” he replied

“sorry for falling asleep, and for all this crying.. I was.. just ..having a bad day.”

“hey don’t worry about it.. I’ll walk you out to your car.” he replied

You felt glad to have such great friend as Logan, but felt sad you were hiding this big secret from him.  As you gathered up your things your mind kept wandering all over the place.  That was the tendency these days.  As if Logan noticed you were lost in thought he said, “hey.. whatever the problem is, everything is going to be okay.  I’m here anytime you need me, just let me know..”  He gave you a smile as you two walked out to your car.  Before you could grab the door handle he grabbed it and opened it for you “after you” he said with a playful look in his eyes.

“why thank you kind sir” you replied.  You curtsied for him before getting into the car.  He shut the door carefully and then did a playful little bow to finish off the act.  You laughed and thanked him for letting you crash and then waved goodbye as you drove down the road.
