| Next Day |
Nick awoke by his ringing alarm clock he slammed down his hand on it and went back to peaceful sleep,then he remembered he was going to go visit Kylie as he had told her the day before,Nick got off his king size bed and rubbed the sleep out of his eyes,he was so damn tired.He couldn't even sleep well,he kept on having dreams about Mary and then Kylie came in and boy did that freak him out.Nick took a shower and slipped some khaki shorts on and a white wife beater,nikes,shades and a khaki colored nike hate put on backwards.He ran into his kitchen and took out an apple and bit into,he finished it and threw the core of the apple into his trash can,he grabbed his car keys and ran into his garage he pressed the open up garage button and ran into his car,he got in and sped off to the hospital.
He swerved into his parking space and got jumped out of the car,he put the alarm on and walked into the cold hospital.He shivvered now he wished he'd brought himself a jacket he got on the elevator and pressed the floor number,the elevator doors opened with a ding.He got off on the floor and walked straight to Kylie's room.He opened the door softly,making sure that Kylie was awake.
Kylie groaned,"Why'd you come ?"
Nick brought up a chair next to her,and noticed the dark circles under her crystal green eyes,she was so sad,well hell who wouldn't be if you had Leukemia.
"I told you yesterday that I'd come and I mean what I say",said Nick.
"O-K,I still think you should leave",mumbled Kylie.
"You need company",said Nick.
Kylie's eyes shot up and she hissed,"I don't need anyones fucking company"
Nick was having enought of her attitude problems,he knew he should keep his cool,but how in the hell can you keep your cool when the girl is going feisty on you.
"I am not leaving,so you might as well talk to me",said Nick slyly.
Kylie groaned and asked,"Fine,what do you want to talk about ?"
"Got any family ?",asked Nick.
Kylie could feel the tears welling up in her eyes,she didn't want to cry,she didn't want him to see her 'other side'.But her body betrayed her,she began shaking uncontrollably,tears fell down.
"I'm sorry",said Nick truthfully.
"Go away",muffled Kylie.
Nick sensed she needed some time alone,his noisy side was etching to know what had happened to her family,but he decided agaisn't asking her.Nick stood up from his chair and leaned and kissed her left cheek and whispered into her ear,"I'll come later,I hope you feel much better,and if you ever need someone to talk to,I'm here"
Kylie watched Nick leave,she cried even harder than before,now it wasn't because of her deseased family,it was because of Nick,how could he be so sweet to her,when just yesterday they had met,he was so nice and seemed so caring,that she just wanted to open her heart to him and pour out all of her feelings that caused her sadness and depression.
Kylie wiped away her tears and grabbed from underneath her pillow,her sketch book,she grabbed her pencil,and opened it.Her thoughts drifted towards her mom,she used to draw like no other artist in the world.Some of her valuable paintings where in Paris,being showed off to the tourists and the people that lived their.
Drawing was her pride and joy,she could just get lost in it by drawing for hours and hours,it was the only thing that kept her alive.Sometimes at night she prayed and wished that she could just die,but then she would remember all the hard work and time she would put into her paintings,her fantasy dream would be that all her paitings would be in museum in Paris or Italy or even here in the U.S.A,but that was just a fantasy.
