Robbie's POV

The birds are chirping, the sun is shining, and here I am lying in a hospital bed.

I lazily open my eyes to the beautiful sunny day; I place my hand to where Cat was.

It was empty.

I slowly turn around to see Cat wasn't there.

She must have headed home.

The pain was subsiding it was a faint pain but not too bad. I touch the spot Cat laid on; I could still smell her strawberry perfume.

I smile to myself; I love you Robbie, I love you too Cat.

I rub my eyes when I see something on the counter next to my bed.

I reach over and take it in my hands, "To Robbie, I promised you I would get you this. Thanks for the jacket last night, it kept me really warm! Feel better and hope to see you soon! Xoxo –Cat"

I smile again, opening the bag.

It was another picture frame, this time of Cat smiling and me sleeping….Wait.

I laugh; she took this picture this morning.

She's adorable.

I place the note on top of the picture and set it aside taking my phone.

"Hey thanks for the wake up gift, I really love it. You're the best!"

I look at the time, 10 am I wonder when I can go home, it's so boring being here.

I hear a knock on my door, "Come in!"

The nurse walks in, "Good morning Robbie, how are you feeling?"

"A lot better than yesterday"

"Good, let's see if you can walk"

I nod as she helps me get off of the bed.

I stand before I take a couple steps, the pain wasn't as bad.

"Does it hurt?"

"Not really, just a little faint"

She nods and stands a distance from me, "Okay now walk toward me"

I take my first step almost stumbling the way to the nurse she holds my arms when I reach her.

"Good, now how did that feel?"

"Not that bad actually"

"Wow, you're a pretty fast healer. Let me just check with the doctor and I'm sure you're ready to head home today"

I thank the nurse and take a seat as she leaves.

My parents walk in, "Hey son, how are you feeling?"

"Not that bad, the nurse made me walk and it didn't really hurt as much so she's checking with the doctor to see if I can go home now"

My mom walks over to me fixing my hair, "That's great honey, you heal so fast"

I smile, "That's what the nurse said too"

Both my parents laugh along with me, the nurse walks in with a smile.

"Okay, Robbie you're all set to head home. We have your discharge papers so you don't need to sign anything."

"Thank you so much nurse" My mom says,

"Oh, no problem. Hope you feel better Robbie"

"Thanks ma'am"

She was just about to leave the room, "Oh wait nurse?"

She turns to me, "Yes?"

I smile, "Am I eligible for the beach this Saturday?"

She laughs, "Hm, you'll have to see for yourself. If you're still in mild pain, I would avoid going in waters but if it's completely gone you should be fine. Oh that reminds me, do you have pain medication at home?"

I nod,

"Take those at least every 4 hours, it'll help the pain"

I laugh, "Okay thank you ma'am"

She nods her head and walks out, my parents help me get in the car, taking my belongings with me.

I set my things in the car, and gently place the picture frame underneath my jacket for protection.

*Ding*

"Hehe, you're welcome! Do you like the picture?"

"Haha love it, you look really pretty in that picture too"

*Ding*

"Awh thanks, even though I don't agree because it was so early in the morning…."

"Haha, I'd have to disagree. You look great in every picture"

A realization came to me, are me and Cat going out?

I feel like we are, but I haven't formally asked her….or really confessed to her other than whispering I love you to her while she was sleeping.

Was she dreaming about me?

Sometime people confess their feelings in their sleep because their too scared to say it when their awake.

I lean against the window of the car, my mind pondering about Cat.

I just want to be hers already.

*Ding*

"Hehe thanks Robbie! How are you feeling?"

"Mild pain, I'm actually heading home now."

*Ding*

"OH! No way? I'm coming over"

I blush, "Oh really? Why?"

*Ding*

"Cuz I wanna see you! Are you going to be busy?"

"How nice of you! And no, I'm probably going to be confined to my bed all day to rest"

*Ding*

"Awh okay! I can take care of you!"

I smile, "Oh so are you going to be Nurse Valentine?"

*Ding*

"Lol! Sure! I wouldn't mind"

"Haha okay, the name's fitting"

*Ding*

"I think so too!"

My parents' parks on the driveway, helping me get out of the car and onto my bed in my room.

They brought me everything I needed, since I'm going to be stuck in my room all day.

"Mom, you really don't have to do this"

She fluffs my pillow, "Nonsense Robbie, I want you to be comfortable"

I smile, "Thanks mom I really appreciate it. By the way Cat's coming over"

She smiles, "Okay that's fine with me. Dad and I are going to have to go out soon, will you be okay?"

I raise my eyebrow, "I'm sure I can handle it"

She laughs, kissing my hair and walking out the door.

*Ding*

"Are you home?"

"Yep, just got home."

*Ding*

"Perfect timing, I'm here!"

*Ding dong*

Cat's POV

The door swings open, "Hello sweetheart" Mrs. Shapiro says with a warm smile

"Hi Mrs. Shapiro!"

She leads me inside; I wave hi to Mr. Shapiro who gently smiles back.

"Dad and I have to go out really quick, we'll be back shortly. Robbie's up in his room, will you be okay?"

I nod, "I'll be fine! I'll take care of Robbie, you can count on me"

She smiles, touching my shoulder before they both leave.

I walk up to Robbie's room and slowly open the door.

"Cat?"

I swing it open; Robbie was watching TV "Hi Robbie!"

He smiles, scooting over on the bed for me to sit.

I softly plop on it, "What'cha watching?"

He laughs, "Nothing in particular, just channel surfing."

I watch the TV change from channel to channel when he finally lands on "Silent Library" on MTV.

"This show is hilarious" He says, watching the new stunt being performed

I laugh "It is! You, me and the whole gang should do this!"

"That would be really fun"

I look at him, "You think?"

He starts to lean up, I could see the pain on his face

"Robbie be careful" I place my hand on his back, my other on his chest to support him, he finally manages to lean up against his pillow

"Ah thanks Cat"

"Are you okay?"

He smiles, "I'm fine Cat"

He taps my nose, I blush.

I look to see my hands still on him; I quickly remove them and place them on my lap.

He stares at my hands, "So you know about our plans on Saturday?"

I look down, "The one at the beach?"

He nods, "The nurse told me if the pain is gone by then I should be okay"

I smile, still looking down "That's great"

He lifts my head up, "Are you okay?"

My heart starts to beat faster, direct eye contact with Robbie.

"Yeah I'm fine Robbie, I was just thinking about….you know"

"The fight?"

I nod; he takes me in his arm against his chest. "I'm okay Cat; I promised you I would be okay remember?"

I nod against his chest, he rubs my arm. "Come on, let's just watch TV okay?"

I smile, snuggling against Robbie who still had me in his arm.

Are we dating?

I feel like we are….but we aren't.

I don't want the label of "Friends with Benefits" that title disgusts me, it's basically like saying "Hey I like you but I don't want to date you, so let's just act like a couple but still be friends."

I want to ask Robbie but how should I start?

"Robbie?"

"Cat?"

We both say at the same time, we share a laugh

"You first" he says

I shake my head "No you first"

He smiles but then grows red, "Uhm" I look at him, "D-do you….you know…like anyone?"

I blush mad red, that's exactly what I was going to ask him.

Last time he didn't tell me, all he said was "she's a close friend of mine" from our last talk.

Can he read my mind?

I couldn't think straight, "I-uh well I"

He smiles, "If you tell me who you like I'll tell you who I like"

My heart skips a beat, "Uhm, you promise?"

"Promise"

I smile, "Well the person I like is…."

He raises his eyebrow, "This guy"

Robbie laughs along with me, "Come on don't pull that one on me"

I smirk, "I told you, now it's your turn"

"That's not fair"

I giggle as he sighs, "Okay okay"

I look at him, "Let's just say….I love her"

I grow red, "And she loves me too"

What?

"Oh….really?"

"Well I'm pretty sure, one time when we hung out she fell asleep on me and when I was trying to wake her up she said I love you in her sleep"

Wait…

"Then there was the other time at the hospital, she fell asleep next to me again and said I love you in her sleep….again"

No way….

"I said it back both times you know"

"H-huh?"

"When I was unconscious I could hear her voice in my head saying it to me so I responded back, then the time in my room when she said it, I whispered it in her ear saying I love you back"

This can't be happening….

He pulls me up, holding my arms to face him.

He smiles, "Let's just say the person I love…."

My heart was beating out of my chest.

"Happens to be my best friend"
