Chapter 10 (1/1)

Jonghyun’s POVI slowly opened my eyes to see Elle still sleeping in my arms. She looked so beautiful it hurt. I kissed her forehead and groggily lifted my body out of the bed. The smell of bacon drifted to me causing my stomach to growl eagerly. Well might as well go see what all there is to eat. I walked into the kitchen to find Joanna making breakfast. I still don’t understand how she hates me, I mean, what’s not to like?“Morning! You want some bacon and eggs? I think I made enough… oh well I can always make more if there isn’t enough. Is Elle awake? She probably will be starving like always.” She just kept rambling on while I stood there waiting for her to stop talking and let me eat.“Um Elle isn’t awake yet but I‘d like some food.” I mumbled.She grabbed a plate from one of the small cabinets above the small counter and put some of her food onto it.. The whole kitchen was small even for just two people. Along one wall was a pantry then a counter top with an oven and few more cabinets. The opposite wall had a fridge and more countertop. I could have touched both sides at the same time.“There you go.” She held the plate out in front of me with a fork. “So where’d you sleep last night? Hm?” I choked a little bit mid-swallow. she swiveled around to face me with her menacing stare. I think she would be good as a cop or something. Just stare at the accused like that and the truth will slip right out.“On Elle’s bed.” I said before I had the chance to stop myself. Her glare became even more intense. “Nothing happened I promise.” I rushed out, panicked.“sure.” She just sat there with what seemed like a permanent scowl on her face until Elle ran out of her room and into the bathroom without even shutting the door.Joanna’s POVElle never gets sick, like throwing up sick. Never. I think the last time she did was when she was eight or something. I ran to the bathroom and Jonghyun followed. When I got there she was leaning over the toilet puking her guts out. It was absolutely disgusting but I had to help her. I went and sat beside her and held back her long hair. I yelled at Jonghyun to go away because he just irritated me to no end but instead of listening to me he went and sat on the other side of Elle. She finally finished and sat up and wiped her mouth. We just sat there in an awkward silence waiting for something to happen or someone to say something. Jonghyun suddenly picked her up bridal style and carried her out of the bathroom, into the living room, and to the couch.“No, put me down I can walk.” Elle mumbled. I rolled my eyes at this. Of course she would try to walk.“Sure.” He whispered sarcastically as he laid her gently down onto the couch. “Seeing as you can barely talk I don’t think you trying to walk is going to work out too well.”I went a got a blanket from Elle’s bed along with her pillow. While I was situating her I told Jonghyun to get me a wet washcloth from the bathroom. He brought me one and I placed it on her forehead hoping it would help cool her down a bit.“now what?” Jonghyun asked“well she’s going to rest and since I’m going to the store for medicine someone, meaning you, has to watch her just in case she gets sick again or something. There’s some movies on that shelf over there you could watch... so yeah. I’ll try not to take too long.” I grabbed my coat purse and house key and left him staring at me bewildered. The boy doesn’t know a thing about taking care of someone.Jonghyun’s POV…What am I supposed to do if she gets sick again? Oh god I have no idea what to do. I don’t even have Joanna’s number incase anything happens! Maybe I’ll just try to watch a movie… I grabbed one without looking at the title and popped it in. I looked around realizing there’s nowhere to sit but the floor so I plopped down and leaned against the couch. I hope Elle’s going to be ok.Elle’s POVI was running on the beach. The sand squishing between my toes. It felt nice. He appears in front of me without any warning, giving me this sad kind of smile that practically breaks my heart.“It’s ok, Elle. I know you had to do it. Don’t cry.” He reached up and wiped away tears that I didn’t even know were there. he pulled me into a warm hug. It seemed to be getting warmer and warmer. Almost too warm. I could feel myself burning. Suddenly I was in the freezing water. I released a sigh and went to breathe in again but pulled in only water that burned my nose and lungs and eyes. I was being pulled under. I tried to get free but I was too weak and it was too strong. I had no more breath. My chest cried out for air. A hand grabs mine and wrenches me out of the water and carries me onto land. We lock eyes and he pulls me in close with a deep kiss. It felt almost perfect but missing something… just that one little something that would make him the right one.“I’m so sorry.” I whisper “so, so sorry." Sorry. its super short :p
