Keefe POV
     I miss her. I miss seeing her beautiful face and hearing her angelic voice. I know she is there watching me, but I can't see  her. I know it's her because she hasn't left me, everyday I feel her lightly grasp my hand. I know it is her because she traces circles on the back of my palm and that's what she does whenever she is scared but is trying to act tough. I know it's her because I hear her telling everyone that I will wake up soon. Or maybe she is just trying to reassure herself. I don't really know. I just hope I will wake up soon. I can still think and feel. My empathy still works. Which means I can feel all the worry everyone is throwing at me. I just want to let them know I'm alright. Like if I can't talk to them, I just wish they knew I was fine. Not to worry about me. To know I'm still me. I wish I could tell her how I feel. How I feel about her.

Sophie POV
I want talk to him. I want to know he is ok. I look over at his sleeping peaceful face. I sweep a piece of stray hair out of his face. I've always wanted to tell him. To tell him I love him. I was going to but then we got stuck here. I wonder if he can hear me. What if I can tell him. I look around and see that no one is in the room. So, I go for it.
           "H-hey, Keefe. I don't know if you can hear me or if I'm just talking to myself. But, in the chance that you can hear me. I want to say- I-I... I love you Keefe," at this point I have turned away from the cot. I can't look at him. I know he probably can't hear me. But-
            "I love you too, Sophie," I hear a weak voice from next to me say. I jump and look over at Keefe. He is sitting up and looking at me. I feel a tear slip down my check. "Hey come here. I'm ok Sophie. It's me,"
             "Y-you called me Sophie," I lean over to his cot and he gently grabs my face. He wipes the tear off my check and just smiles at me.
"S-Sophie um, can I kiss you?" I love that he asked, so I slowly shake my head yes. He leans closer to me and our lips finally connect. I have been waiting for this moment for so long and I can't believe it's finally happening. My lips feel soft on his dry, chapped, lips.
"Um I didn't mean to interrupt anything-,"We both turn to see Elwin staring at us. "I need to check out Keefe now that he is awake." I move back from his cot but he still holds onto my hand and I'm glad. I'm glad to know he is here and okay. As Elwin walks over I locked eyes with Keefe.
"Hey it's ok Foster we can continue this later," Keefe says with a wink.
"Glad to know your still you Keefe," I smile at his goofiness.
"Yep you're stuck with me forever Sophie,"
