Finding You

Chapter ~~4

NAVIA

            I woke up the next day in the best way ever. I woke up kissing Lucas. He was wide awake and right in my face. His gorgeous eyes stunned me. They were so clear and pure.

“Good Morning” he whispered. I couldn’t respond, I was still caught in the clarity of his eyes. My mind was telling me to respond but I couldn’t make my lips move. My mind was a web of tangled thoughts. “How are you feeling? You had a hard day yesterday.”

            What happen yesterday? I don’t remember much except having to take about a thousand tests. Then it goes black, until later when Lucas and I are looking out onto the city, making out. My cheeks warmed at the thought of Lucas’ lips against mine. I remember how his lips felt, soft and damp. A little shiver ran up my spine and my whole body rocked with it. Lucas pulled the blanket up around me. He must think I’m cold. Actually I was the exact opposite, my body was warm, and was still continuing to heat up. I laughed at the thought of me being cold while I was lying on top of him.

What the hell? How did I get on top of him? Quickly I tried to move off of him, but lost my balance, and fell the wrong way off the bed. I closed my eyes waiting for the impact of the floor and the pain that was sure to follow. I never hit. Instead a pair of hands caught my waist before I hit. I opened my eyes to see the floor tiles inches from my face. Lucas slowly lifted me and lay me down next to him.

“Thanks” I said embarrassed.

“No problem” he said with a smile. Amusement shown in his eyes.

            Why do I do all this stupid stuff in front of Lucas? He must think I’m an idiot. Lucas probably thinks of me as just some silly girl. I’m only 18, and I know I’ve got a lot to learn. Who knows how old Lucas is. I want to ask but I feel asking him his age is rude.

“Lucas, what happened yesterday?”

Lucas told me the story of what happened. Well at least what he knew. “Navia, why did you run to the roof?” he asked.

“I have no idea.” I said as I shook my head. “That part is blank to me, I have no memory of even waking up.”

Dr. Maston walked in the door, looking at a clipboard. “Lucas I need you to leave the room again” the doctor said without even looking up from his clipboard.

“Why?” he asked.

“I need to speak with Navia, in private.” Dr. Maston responded. He looked up from his clipboard.

“What if Navia wants me to stay with her?”

“That’s too bad. We need to speak in private.”

“No. I must stay with her.” Lucas was beginning to get louder and more defiant.

“Lucas why are you fighting me on this?”

“Because I know what you are thinking, and what you are feeling.”

“Lucas, I…” The doctor looked shocked, he was clearly taken by surprise. But what could the doctor be thinking that would make Lucas so against leaving the room.

            “You can see why I don’t want to leave.” The doctor nodded. “Maybe you should come back later” Lucas said dismissing him. The doctor didn’t say anything and left.

            “What was all that about?”

            “That doctor finds you attractive.” Lucas looked really annoyed.
