The Prologue:
I wake up and realize what had happened. All of the memories of what happened that night came back to me. The party; the drinking; the boy; the sex. I smiled. I opened my eyes to find that my head was resting on his warm bare chest. He was playing with a strand of my hair.
I lifted my head up and looked at him. His deep brown eyes; I could gaze into them forever. His black hair and dark rich skin. He was the boy I loved.
Daniel and I have been best friends since pre K. The day I found out he loved me was a long story but long story short I got caught in a fight. We were at the beach and another friend of mine started a fight with a gang. I instantly tried to stop it. But I got punched and fainted in the process. Daniel defended me. He carried me in his arms and ran to the hospital for help. When I woke up he was sitting in the visitor chair. I remember the conversation like it was yesterday.
Flash back
"D-Daniel?" I said shakily. Where was I? What happened? Why are there tubes going up my nose and what are these people pumping into my arm? I was sitting in a lumpy mattress covered with bleach white, rough sheets.
"Ali! Oh my God! Are you ok?" he looked up strait away. He grabbed my hand and held it in his big warm ones. His eyes were wide open and he looked...scared. What was going on?
"Umm...I-I'm fine...I think." Daniel squeezed my hand. A strange feeling grew in the pit of my stomach. Daniel smiled. It made me smile back. He leaned over, tearing his eyes from mine and letting go of my hand, and pressed a button.
"The doctor will be here soon" He said. He sat back down. I sighed. I had a realization that I must be in the hospital. But why? How long have I been here?
"Daniel?" I asked
"Ali?"
"Umm...What happened?" It felt weird asking him this. I would usually ask my mum something like this when I'm at the hospital. Where was she anyway? Besides, I don't even remember if he was there when what ever happened.
"You don't remember? ...What's the last thing you remember Ali?" He asked really concerned. He was sitting on the edge of his seat. But just at that moment the doctor walked in. Both of our heads quickly turned to the doctor.
"Ok, so, I'm Dr Dillon. How are you feeling today Ali?" He asked very professionally. Dr Dillon was a skinny, young and very hansom. With no doubt my mum chose him for me (My parents split up). He had blond hair and blue eyes, like sapphires. He was wearing a doctor's coat but you could totally see that he was buff.
I gulped and looked over at Daniel. Dr Dillon followed my gaze. He gave me an encouraging nod. I looked back at Dr Dillon.
"I-I feel fine" I said. He nodded and turned to Daniel.
"Has she shown any weird behavior since she woke up?" He asked. He started taking notes on his note pad. Weird behavior? Is he suggesting that I'm crazy?
"Umm...Well, she can't remember why she is here and umm...she seems a bit scared." Daniel answered. He wouldn't take his eyes off of me. "Will she be ok?" he asked.
"Too soon to say." Dr Dillon said. He scribbled more notes down. He continued. "Ali? Can you tell me the last thing you remember?" He asked softly and slowly. It almost sounded like he thought that I was a little kid who didn't understand a thing he said.
"Umm..." I thought hard. What did I remember? I picture formed in my head. It was bright. I was on the beach with my friends. I started to remember. "I was at the beach with my friends, I think" I said thinking as hard as I could.
"Well, the hit must have knocked out her recent memory. I'll have to take a closer look at her skull to see if any damage has been done..." Dr Dillon kept talking to Daniel about my health. I didn't catch much off it though. Why was he telling Daniel all of this? Where was mum? Am I dreaming? I pinched myself to check. "Ouch" Dr Dillon and Daniel didn't even hear me; they were so deep in conversation. Nope. No dream.
"Can someone please tell me what happened?" I asked loudly. I was starting to get annoyed.
Dr Dillon sighed and said to Daniel "You can explain to her what happened. I'll come back later" He walked siftly out of the room. I turned to Daniel and he got up from his chair and sat on the end of the bed. He just stared at me.
"Daniel! Tell me what happened!!!" I was getting really pissed off now. Daniel blinked. He obliviously didn't expect me to shout.
"Ok, ok" he said taking a deep breath before he started again. "Well, we were on the beach and Donna got stuck in a fight with this gang and you tried to stop it but you got punched. You passed out and I fought the guy off. When the fight finished, I carried you to the hospital. You've been here for 2 day's now" He said without stopping. There was silence. I was processing everything. Pictures formed in my head. I saw Daniel and me running on the shore and playing cricket with some friends. I saw a guy about 21 with black hair and wearing baggy pants and a hoodie. I remember a pain in my forehead.
"Am I ok?" I asked after a few minutes. Daniel smiled a little. He got off the end of the bed and walked to my side. I looked up at him and into his deep brown eyes. It was like for the first time I was actually seeing him. He leaned over and cupped my face in his hand. He stroked my cheek softly.
"I won't let anything happen to you" He whispered. I felt his breath on my lips; he was so close to me. I felt the warmth coming from him to me. He tilted his head and gave me a kiss. It was sweet and deep but short. I wanted it to last forever it felt so good. When he broke away I felt confused. Did Daniel like me? Or was that just a friendly kiss? But surly a kiss like that is way too intimate for just friends, was it? When nobody said anything it became an uncomfortable silence.
"Umm...I kind of...really...like you...Ali" Daniel said unsure of what else to say. When did all this happen? I didn't know what to say myself. When I didn't answer Daniel said "But if you don't feel the same way, then...we can still be friends"
"No, no!" I said without thinking. I still had no idea how I felt bout him. I thought bout the kiss. It did make me feel...amazing. He was amazing. He is a nice guy and I do like him. And he did help me. I took a deep breath. I couldn't believe I was about to do this. "Do you wanna go out...sometime?"
"Are you serious? I mean you don't have to if you don't want to. I'll get over it..." He kept babbling on and on. I shook my head and started laughing. Daniel's smile was bigger than I have ever seen it.
"Daniel...Daniel! It's ok! I want to" I said getting him to shut up. He just looked at me. The light shone on him in a way that he looked like an angel. Maybe we were meant to be together.
"Then in that case, I'd love to go out, but only if I get to pay for the movie and dinner" He said with a smirk. I shook my head. I couldn't believe this is happening. He took my hand in his and held it to his mouth. Giving it a long kiss. I couldn't resist then.
"Fine you get to pay" I said bringing myself closer to him. I put my hand on his cheek and we kissed again. Soft and sweet. It could have gone forever but the doctor came in just then. He cleared his throat to get our attention.
Flash Present
"Good morning" I said drowsily. Daniel looked up. He smiled his beautiful smile and laughed. I felt his chest shake beneath me.
"Comfortable there?" He said in his deep husky voice. I moved up to kiss him. I pecked him on the lips.
"Very comfortable" I responded. "Last night was...amazing" I said. I couldn't think of any other words. It was the first time we've had sex. He giggled. I loved the way he giggled. It was deep and always made me smile. But then again, just seeing him made me smile.
"Maybe we should do it more often if it makes you this happy" he suggested. He always wanted what was best for me. He rolled over so that he was nearly lying on top of me. He kissed me deep and long. Like he did last night 'cept for last night, he knew he was going to fuck me. I felt his hard cock against my thigh. I moaned into the kiss at the feeling. He moaned too. How I loved him so much. I would screw him right then and there but my mum would be coming home soon.
That's when the door slowly creaked open. It was my parents. There was no time to hide or even get changed. It was too late. We were caught. The least me and Daniel did was pull up the sheets to hid our nude bodies.
Daniel held me tight in his arms and whispered "Everything will be ok. They can't take you away from me."
