Chapter 3: Awake

Amy Chen's eyes fluttered open and she felt air being forced down her lungs. Where am I? she thought. She slowly scanned the room and took off the mask. When she saw Mal's coat slung over a chair everything came back to her in a rush. The closet, Kai, Mal, the air vent... Omigosh! Kai told me he loved me! Where is he? Is he okay? When Kai came to her mind she quickly jumped out of the hospital bed in a flowery thin nightgown she instantly became lightheaded. But she didn't care. She slowly walked out of the hospital room on her bare feet steadying herself against the walls. She lingered through the hallways until Mal found her walking through the halls.

"Amy? You should really be getting some rest... You're going to pass out again!"

"Um, uh... Where's Kai?" Amy stuttered while her cheeks turned red.

"Huh?" Mal had a confused look on his face. "I don't know, I think he's on different floor. But really who cares where Lab Geek number 1 is? Come on lets go back to your room."

I care! Amy thought, I need to find him!

Mal motioned for her to follow him and started walking toward Amy's hospital room.

"No!" Amy commanded, "I'm not going back to my room any time soon I need to find him!" Amy ran as fast as she could without tripping as Mal chased her from behind.

"Amy! Get over here! That idiot doctor says you need strict bed rest."

Amy flew into an elevator and the doors closed in Mal's face.

"Ah hell"

Amy finally found Kai's room on the 9th floor. Fear in her eyes Amy stood in front of the door and traced the words Kai Kalaba hastily scrawled in a nurse's handwriting. She sucked in her breath and opened the door to reveal Kai still out cold with his ankle wrapped in bandages. She quickly ran over to his bedside and noticed how pale he was and the heart monitor showed an increasingly slowing heart rate. Panicked Amy let out a yelp. "Kai!" Amy gently called his name and shook his shoulders. Kai's eyes slowly opened and he grinned when he saw her face. She wanted to yell at him for making her think he was about to die in any minute. But instead she wrapped him in a hug. "Yes, I will." She murmured.

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

"I've changed my mind,. Yes, I will go on a date with you."

Tada! There's only going to be one more chapter left, an epilogue! Which is going to be much shorter than this... Anyway, please review? :)
