The Things I Wish You Felt {Komine: Discontinued}

{Ch.7} The Cold Part 1

Kody's Pov

"K-!"

"-od-! Are you -ok-?"

"Kody!?"

My eyes fluttered open. Everything is hazy and I begin to blink away the blur in my eyes. I looked around slowly at the familiar surroundings. I was in my room.

I looked over to my side and noticed a wolf-boy studying me worriedly. Gruggly I began to sit up.

"Wah! Kody you shouldn't move-"

"I'm fine, why are you so worried any-" I cut myself off as a wave of warmth and ice washed over me. What's wrong with me? I began to cough and immediately Lumine grabbed my hand, gently laying me back down.

"Kody you're sick, it's probably not good to move around." Lumine said concerned.

I turned to him slightly out of breath. "I told you I'm fine. You don't have to be so worried."

He stayed silent but nodded slowly. I couldn't help but notice the way he avoided my gaze after I said that. Did I say something wrong? Or maybe it's because of what I did to him...that makes sense. I released a sigh as I closed my eyes.

"Hey Lumine?"

Silence. Then a sniffle.

I opened my eyes once again, turning to the boy besides me. He was shaking slightly with his hands over his face. I could tell he didn't want me to notice but it was impossible not to. I begin to sit up again and make my way toward him. Lucky he didn't seem to notice.

I carefully grabbed his arm and pulled it away from his face. Red, puffy eyes looked at me and widened with surprise. Tears streamed down his face and I feel my heart wrench with sadness. But why? At least that's what I would've thought if I didn't already know that answer. I love him.

"Why are you crying?" I asked looking into his multi-colored eyes.

As soon as the words left my mouth he grabbed on to me, hugging me tightly. I stiffen as he began soaking my shirt with his tears. After a few moments I relaxed and awkwardly hugged him back. A part of me was happy to be holding him like this, the other part was uneasy. Why was he doing this so suddenly?

"Lumine..." I called out softly. "Hey. What's wrong?"

Lumine takes a moment to calm himself before he begins to speak. "S-sorry to cry on you like that heh..." His wipes his eyes and sniffles. "Its j-just I kinda got rejected by Elijah...but I don't feel sad about it...i-is there something wrong with me?"

He looks sadly into my eyes, waiting for me to answer. I thought for a moment, feeling happiness that I might actually have a chance, and a burning anger for Elijah.

"There's nothing wrong with you. You didn't need that jerk anyways." I state.

He giggles, showing off a smile that nearly blinds me. "I guess so. Thanks Kody, I didn't think you'd actually say anything like that."

I frown. "What do you mean?"

He shrugs. "I kinda saw a different side of you I haven't seen yet, it's nice." Showing of another smile.

My face flushes before I let go of Lumine. "Whatever...It must be because of this darn cold." I mutter bitterly. To be completely honest, I didn't really feel like myself either. My mind felt clouded and my body felt like it was on fire one moment before I'm freezing. Not to mention my throat started to get dry.

"Oh! That's right! Sherry and Silver made you something to eat once you woke up. I'll go grab it for you." The wolf boy announced, leaving the room.

I sighed. I crawled back into my bed feeling well...sick. Why did I have to go on that walk? This wouldn't have happened if I'd just came back sooner. But again...I didn't want to see Lumine and Elijah together. So maybe it was worth it.

A few moments later the albino boy comes back holding a bowl of what looks to be soup. I looked at it with disgust as I noticed it's smell and color. Split pea soup. Out of all the soups they could've made why this one!

Noticing the look of my face Lumine frowns. "Is there something wrong Kody?"

"I don't want to eat it, I'm not hungry." I lied.

"Come on Kody you should eat something. Sherry and Silver worked hard to make this for you." Lumine said.

Yeah worked hard my ass, they probably wanted to mess with me.

"I don't care if they made it, I'm not hungry." I state turning away from the meal in front of me.

"It's not that bad. Just take a bite." The wolf boy said, taking a spoon full of the gross concoction.

I turned my head and zipped my mouth shut. It may be childish but I'm not going to eat something that will kill me.

Lumine sighed. "If you're not going to eat it then I won't speak to you."

I chuckled. "Like the silent treatment will work on me. See if I care." It's not like he'll be silent for long anyways.

But the room fell silent, so silent you can hear a pin drop. I could feel the tension arise through the air but I also refused to speak. He'll break soon...right? But he doesn't. I begin to feel uncomfortable.

Through many years of my life, I've never had a problem being quiet. If I spoke I'd only get myself into deeper trouble. It was better just to ignore them, they'd stop once they got bored. However, once the bullying stopped I found myself wanting the company of others. Especially Lumine. Everyday he'd be the only one that talks to me, beside my dad and everyone else. It felt normal to have someone talk to me, though I didn't talk much but I liked to listen. I hated it at the same time. It made me feel weak and hopeless, yet ever since that incident with the wolves, I learned that life is short.

Yet at this moment, I wished I'd never learned that. I gave in.

"Fine, I'll eat the damn soup." I announced reluctantly.

Lumine beamed and came closer with the spoon of green. Inch by inch it came closer to my mouth. I frowned before taking the whole thing and drinking the warm liquid. Immediately I regret my decision and my face scrunches up in disgust. It wasn't till Lumine laughed uncontrollably did he take his mind off the sour taste.

"Y-your face! I've never-HAHA s-seen anything like that!" Lumine says in between his laughing fit.

Kody stares at him confused and slightly embarrassed as his wolf friend continues to laugh. Soon enough the green-eyed boy smiles a small smile. At least he made Lumine laugh. This wouldn't be so bad right? Right?

Hello my fellow people! Thanks again for reading this chapter! Yet again I don't know what I was doing writing this. I made fanart to go with it but I'm better drawing tradionally. I'm not sure how to make those fluffly moments like in other fanfics butttt (haha I said butt) I sure will try! I know times rn are pretty rough but it'll be okay. One day everything will be back to normal. So stay happy. Also I just want to know who else hates split pea soup? I for one do. Anyways, have a great week! Thanks again for all your support! Almost at 1,000 views! Crazy!
