Patricia POV.
It's three days since Louis woke up and I have been with him every day, every hour, even slept there, at the hospital. The nurse who was comforting me when we first got here gave me a bed so I could be with him all time except from when I was in the cafeteria. And the weird thing is, he don't seem to have anything against it. Actually, it looks like he really enjoy spending time with me. But he could just nice too, I don't know. We laugh and talk all the time and when we don't have anything to say, we sing, and he really have a beautiful voice.
Right now we lay in each others bed and just talk, like we have known each other much longer than we really have.
“Patricia?” He suddenly say with a serious face.
“Yeah?” I look worried at him, why is he so serious now, 2 seconds ago he was laughing his lungs out.
“Why are you here with me all day? You known me for like, three days, aren't your family worried about you?”
I just look down, why did he mention my family? He has been the only one who have ever made me forget... a tear escapes my eye.
“Patricia?” he say and look at me with a deep look.
I take a deep breath before I manage to say:
“I don't really have a family anymore.”
“What? No family?”
“Nope, just my best friend who I just moved in to, actually the day you saved me, it was my first day here.” I say and look him in the eyes, faking a smile.
“I don't really und-” but I cut him off.
“It's a long story.”
“Well, I have plenty of time, it's not like I'm getting out of here in the first place, is it?” He said tapping his hand on his bedside, signalling me to come over to him. I do as told and sit beside him, now we're sitting really close to each other and I can feel this weird feeling inside of me.
I turn against him bite my lip.
“It all started with me, my mum, my dad and my cousin, Haley in the car. We were on our way home from my auntie, my Haleys mother. We were basically just visiting them but though it would be great if my Haley came home with us, spending some time with me so we could catch up, you know, haven't seen her in months.” I take a break from the talking and look down at my hands before seeking his eyes again.
“Bad idea.” I can see he feels a bit sorry for me, and he haven't heard the worst part yet.
“To come home we need to drive in a forest and you know, bad weather, dark night, forest. It shouldn't be hard to guess what's coming next.” I break the eye contact and another tear escapes my eye. I try to calm myself down and take a lot of deep breaths. It's my thing, when I'm trying not to cry I just breath deeply, but I'm not the only one who does that, am I?
“Car crash” he say and I look at him and nodded. I can't hold it anymore and I start to cry, like a lot. I probably look like a crying baby, but who wouldn't have cried for this?
Before I do anything else, he wraps his arms around me and hug me tightly, I cry into his chest, breathing in his cent.
“It's going to be okay.”
“How can this possibly be okay?!” I say, pulling out of the hug and look him in the eyes. Not that I can see much though, my eyes are filled with tears and everything is blurry.
“Haley's in coma, and that's basically my fault, my family is dead and I have no one, except from my best friend!” I almost yelled, how can he say that it's going to be okay?!
“You have me.” He said and took my hand in his and squeezed it lightly. It's like I just froze, I don't know what to say, I haven't known this guys for more than three days and he says something like that? What the hell? I don't even know where he lives, which food he like, nothing and he says that?
I take one more breath before looking into his eyes again, they are so beautiful. What is this feeling.
“I'm not going to leave you, Patricia, I'm not the person who save a girls life then just walk away like nothing ever happened, and defiantly not now when I know what you've been through, a car crash two times in a short time, that's a lot to handle alone.”
I just smile, and this smile isn't even fake. What's happening to me? I never smile when someone talks about the accident. This boy is really special, and he makes me feel special.
“And, I basically saved your life so you owe me,” He say, smirking.
“And what do you want from me?” I ask him, curious about what he's going to say.
“Well, I really crave a coffee, haven't had one in a long time.” He said.
“Coffee it is then.” I say, smiling I get our of bed and towards the door.
“How do you like it?” I asked.
“surprise me” he winks.
“Will do.” I smiled back at him and walked to the nearest coffee-house, it wasn't far away, and I though he'll like it better from here than the hospital, after all, hospital food sucks and he haven't eaten anything else than that in days, not me either, to be honest. So I decide to buy a cupcake to each of us. I don't know which taste he likes best so I buy two of my favourites, so he can pick the one he like and I'll take the other. I buy two coffee frappuccino's couse it's my favourite too and he seriously have a problem if he don't like this one, who doesn't like coffee frappuccino?
I walk back to the hospital with the food and drinks and when I come back to his room I see him laying in his bed, trying to fake a snore but I knew he was awake.
“Oh, so you're sleeping now? Yeahyeah, more cupcakes for me then!” I say loudly and turned my back to him placing our drinks on my bedside table
“Did you say cupcake?” I turned around again and saw him, laying just like he did when I came, only his head was moved to one side so he could face me, with one eye open.
“Yeah, I did, but if you want to sleep, I'll happily take yours too” I said and winked.
“Nonono, don't touch my cupcake!” He said and placed himself in a sitting position and reached his arms out, signalising me to give it to him. I just laugh at how he never fails to look like a kid on Christmas day.
I picked up the cupcakes and walked slowly to him.
“You know, I paid for those, so basically, they're mine” I say, sitting down by his side. I open the box and pretend to smell them.
“Yummy” I say, teasing him and I can see it's working.
“Oh my god, Patricia! You can have my car, just give me one of these!” He said, still looking at them. I just laugh at him and hand him the box.
“Here, I wasn't sure which flavour you like so I bought two different ones, I like them both so you can choose” I can't stop smiling at him when I see how happy he was for a cupcake, I don't blame him, I really crave one too and he haven't had a chance to go buy one himself.
“I can't choose.” He says after looking at them for a while.
“Oh, for god sake Louis, just choose one, and we can buy an another one later when we're out of here!” I laughed.
“We?” he say and look at me.
“Yeah, we! You saved me from my worst nightmare, I'm not gonna leave you here at the hospital alone, it sucks to be in a hospital.. alone..” I answer him. He just smile at me like I gave him a big compliment.
“I think I'll pick the one with chocolate!”
“Finally” I say as he take his cupcake out of the box.
I gave him his coffee, he had never tasted a coffee frappuccino before and he loved it. 1-0 to me! Hah!
“I know which coffee people like just by looking at them” I grin.
“You do?” he asked and was finally done with his cupcake.
“I was just joking but I have heard that I'm good to know how people are just by looking at them, so yes, actually, I do” I said and smiled at him.
We spent the rest of the day at his room as usual, talking and stuff.
When it was time to go to sleep he cut the silence,
“Patricia?”
“Yeah?”
“I was joking about the car, I just wanted that cupcake.”
“It's okay, I have my own.” I said laughing,
“Good, couse I really love my car.” He says and before I could answer I heard him snoring lightly. That one was new, I thought before I went to sleep myself.
