Hazel Salvatore

part 13 - growing list

"I am not exactly sure Draco but- I think it is because of your blood."

"That's what you get for feeding on me." he thought he was funny.

"This is serious."

"Anything I can do?"

"Can you help me send a message to one of my friends?"

"Friends?" He stood up more on his chair, getting more serious, "What friends?"

"I need to ask for help Draco. What's happening to me right now, it's not normal."

"Is it that serious?"

"Draco- I can't- I can't feel my lips."

"What?" he fully raised up from his chair, "What do you mean you can't feel your lips!" He put his thumb on my lips, patting it gently and slowly. "You can't feel this?" His silver-grey eyes were looking into my eyes. They were shining more than the stars.

"No. I can't." I was running out of breath as he continued to come closer.

"What about this?" he said leaning over and leaving a kind kiss on my lips. 

"No." I said smiling at him. 

"Who is this friend? I'll send an owl to them."

"Elijah Mikaelson."

With no other words he left the hospital wing, leaving me alone with the white beds all around me. Again. 

But I could never actually be left alone to rest. 

"Heard you fainted." Connor said walking in right after Draco.

"From whom?" 

"Everyone is talking about it outside."

Ah great. Now everyone knows I fainted. Great. Just great.

"Oh-" I said not letting him into my actual thoughts on the situation.

"How you doing?"

"Fine. What about you?"

"Oh I didn't faint."

"So funny." I said sarcastically. 

"Anyways, I've came to check if you were good love, I should get going."

"You're leaving?" I was a little shocked at him leaving this quick.

"Why? Do you want me to stay?"

"Oh- uh- no- no I just- I was just-" Hazel. Quit Stammering. I said to myself while Connor was laughing at me embarrassing myself.

"It's alright darling, I'll stay here then. Don't be afraid."

That wasn't what I was aiming for but I didn't complain about someone keeping me company.

"So, talk." Connor spoke after we looked out the view from the window for 4 minutes or so. 

"What?"

"You're not planning to just stare out are you? Let's talk."

I giggled, "About?"

"Don't know, hmm." he started thinking of topics, "Oh let me tell you this funny story..."

It's been at least an hour and Connor did an awesome job on managing to make me laugh. Back and forth, we told stories to each other. He looked so pure when he laughed. His medium-long brown hair kept coming in front of him, bothering him, so he had to play with his hair often.

"I should really get going now princess, I missed 2 classes already." Connor said finishing his laughter.
