I'm not giving up on you

She glared at him angrily. He was so frustrating and so nosy .

"Why can't you just leave me alone" she managed to get out before she started her next bout of a coughing fit.

He dropped to the floor next to her and wrapped his arms around her waist as the coughs shook her body.

"Do you want me to leave you alone"?

No

Yes

No

Yes

NO!

She balled her hands into fists, damn him, damn him, damn him

"I'm not giving up on you Kit"

Once she had stopped coughing she looked up at him

"You may say that now, but you'll change your mind later"

He looked her straight in the eye.

"I won't"
