One girl who cant sleep because of Insomnia.
One boy who cant stay awake because of Hypersominia.
They both meet at a group they were forced to attend after Lou's nonstop calls to hospital staff when shes bored at night and Jordans news that he must stay in order to keep him from slipping into a coma or worse.
There the opposite of each other.
Maybe because in their case they could even help each other? Can their feelings over power their problems in order to keep them sane in a place for the sick?
*Bit from story*
"Whats wrong with you?" I ask as I nervously fidget.
"I cant stay awake." He admits with droopy eyelids. I couldnt help but laugh a but. Causing him to raise a eyebrow in confusion
"My problem is i cant sleep. What i would do for your problem." I joke as he lightly chuckles with a tiny smile. His eyes scanning me up and down.
"Why are you in a wheel chair?"
"My muscles are exhausted and give out sometimes. The only time im not in this is when im alone in my hospital room."
"Well, if you ever need company, I'll have my nurse bring me over and we can go from there." I blush at the sweet offer. He wants to hang out? Its been three years since I've had someone stay with me that wasn't my aunt or staff. Jordan's still smiling at me. And its been a while since ive been able to return a genuine one.
*Just in case of description misleadment, this is not suppose to be a different version of The Fault In Our Stars.*

He's popular. I have one friend. He's outgoing. I'm quiet. He has a girlfriend. I'm alone. I'm shy and he's purely arrogant. But they say like forces repel and opposites attract. And we're complete opposites. ════════ "Hello, my name is Juliette Hunter and I think you're an asshole" I said to him, turning my body away so I could, once again, try and grab the book I so desperately needed. "Your turn" I added, after a moment of silence, realising that he was too stunned to speak. His recovery was lightning fast however, as he replied with "Hi Juliette, my name is Levi Knight" He paused, allowing his eyes to roam my body, slowly taking me in from head to toe. I looked him in the eyes, defiant in not allowing him to get to me, as my cheeks began to burn. "And I think you could qualify as one of the most beautiful girls I have ever laid eyes on" he continued smoothly. I couldn't think of a smart remark in response to what he had said so I mumbled a "fuck off" before returning to the bookshelf, I was sure my face turned crimson. "Just out of curiosity," Levi continued, now leaning against the bookshelf. I wasn't going to warn him about the fact that it was slowly tipping over. "You're single right?" I wasn't going to tell him that his assumption offended me either. Instead I replied with "Just out of curiosity" I said in a mocking tone "You're single now too, aren't you?" "You're a feisty one, aren't you?" "You're not gonna leave me alone, are you?" I muttered, attempting once more, to grab the book I so badly needed for English. "You're really hot, you know?"

Roommates
Dean's about to start medical school and he has been assigned a dorm room. With a roommate. As he and Sam head up to his new room he gets an ominous warning from the guy down the hall about Dean's new roommate. It unnerves Sam, but Dean thinks the guy can't be that bad. Right? Dean and Sam grew up happy with BOTH parents in this one. I thought about how to approach this one for quite a while before I actually started writing it. I thought, how can I get this to make sense? Why would a roommate run away? And then this came to me. So, for those of you that don't know, I based a lot of Cas' personality, quirks, and traits on myself since I have Asperger's. While I don't color coordinate my shirts in the closet, they DO have to all face the same direction, and I have more sensory issues than I'll bore you with here. I mention Dean's sensory issues as well here. While he doesn't show actual traits of Asperger's, he's on the spectrum too, and people on the spectrum still have related issues. The bluntness of Cas' questions are something that I did more often when I was younger, and a reason why people singled me out as weird or a freak. I had great difficulty distinguishing between when people were joking and making fun of me (therefore people thought I was stupid, and I was called as much, despite my higher IQ), so I tended to keep to myself. I still have difficulty initiating conversations, and my reaction to going into places like the party that will be mentioned here is much the same as I made Cas react. Parallels, as you'll notice.Complete

Before I could react, I felt his hands on my shoulders, and then he spun me around. My skin felt like it was on fire, and I was paralyzed, unable to move. We were face to face.
