LOVE'S WAYS

My eyes slowly opened and a searing pain came to my head causing me to shut my eyes tightly again. In order to lessen the pain I took a deep breath, which made me realize how heavy my chest was. Man where in the world was I? Opening my eyes for the second time, a bright light shone directly over head. Wincing I shook my head to clear it, and blinked a couple of times to get used to the brightness.

My eyes wandered around the spotless white room. Okay so one place in particular was out of question; My room. Suddenly my eyes landed on an IV a couple of feet away from me. A hospital ! An alarming thought penetrated my brain. I tried to think of the last thing that happened.

Saying goodbye to Jessi. Going to a random party, beating the crap out of Seth. Getting back into my corvette. Blackness.....

A car accident? I'm in here because of a car accident? Another alarming thought entered my head. I tried to sit up and failed, looking at my chest, the first thing I saw was messy, blonde hair. My mind perked up in hope....

I slowly picked up a piece of hair, off the girl's face. Seeing Jessi's peaceful face in return, put a bright smile on mine. I looked towards my other hand and saw that her fingers were gently intertwined with mine. I let out a happy sigh. Carefully and reassuringly squezing her slim hand.

Unfortunatly it was a little too loud causing her to stir a bit, her head burrowing deeper into my chest. I tried not to breath as loudly just so she could go back to sleep. This action seemed to work as Jessi began to drift off into sleep, her breathing more even now. Looking at her figure next to me made me realize one important detail.
