No One Likes To Be Lonely
~*~Bit's POV~*~
I sat by Leena's bedside for weeks. I had gotten paler from not eating enough and bags were forming under my eyes. But I couldn't leave her by herself. If she woke up, I wanted to be the first thing she saw.
Her heartbeat was steady and I thought some color was coming back to her face. She had been receiving injections daily and I knew in my heart that she was getting better. My Leena was too strong to die on me. Too strong and way too stubborn.
"Bit, you really should come home," Doc told me. "I know you want to be here for my daughter but I don't think she would appreciate it if you were nearly sleep and half-starving when she woke up." Doc's lips turned up a bit from hi joke.
"Okay," I answered and soon, I was back in my jeep on the road again.
Though it didn't matter if I was in a warm bed or not. I still couldn't sleep. When I did, my dreams were plagued with something bad happening to Leena. Yep, I'm officially obsessed with her. I can't help it.
I took out my guitar and began gently strumming on it. It always made me feel better even though it still brought memories back of Leena. I had serenaded her once with my guitar and voice and I still can now envision her giggling and smiling. Ah, her smile. When she truly smiled at you, it was like a ray of sunshine hitting you. She was so beautiful.
As soon as the sun began to rise over the ground, I jumped into my jeep and I was off again. I was off to see my Leena!
I exclaimed hello to the nurse as I came into the hospital and rushed into her room. I plopped myself down on a chair near her bed.
"Hey, gorgeous! Lovely day, isn't it? Well, you need to wake up soon if you want to see it! Jocelyn and the rest of the team are getting along great but we need you, sweetheart. We all do..." I continued talking to her like I was some nutcase and nurses occasionally poked their heads in and stared at me like I was some sort of nutcase. Oh, well!
~*~Leena's POV~*~
My eyes fluttered open and the light blinded me.
"Where am I?" I muttered.
"Leena!?!" Bit said surprised.
"Bit, where am I?" I asked again. I wiped the sleep out of my eyes and looked around.
"You're in the hospital. You collapsed from a disease you had," Bit explained to me but I all I could say was, "Oh." "You're better now! This is great!"
I pouted.
"What's wrong, sweetheart?" Bit questioned.
"You didn't give me a wake-up kiss!" Bit grinned sheepishly and I pulled his lips onto mine savoring their sweet taste. "How long have I been asleep?" I inquired after breaking the kiss. I didn't get an answer. Bit was too far off in La La Land. "Bit?" I tweaked his ear, which did catch his attention.
"What?"
"How long was I asleep?" I repeated. It seems like I had been repeating things a lot and I just woke up!
"About three weeks," he answered casually but this made my eyes open wide in shock.
"Three weeks? My job, Jocie!" I cried.
"Don't worry about it. I called into your work telling about what happened and Jocelyn is being taken care of by the team. She absolutely loves them!"
"Oh."
"I'm going to be right back to call the team to tell them that you are awake, okay?" I nod but I really didn't want him to go. Maybe when gets back, I could ask him about the wedding. I know that that topic makes him nervous and it's fun to see him stutter and blush.
"Hey, beautiful! I'm back!" Bit said as he reentered the room. He gave me a peck on the lips and I looked up at him with big, innocent eyes.
"Bit?" I call.
"Yeah, what is it?"
"I was thinking and I was wondering when we were going to hold the wedding?"
"We-wedding?"
"Yes. Just because I was asleep for three weeks doesn't mean I forgot about us getting married!"
"Leena, you're just getting better!" he protested. I glared at him and if I was standing up, I'm sure I would have had my hands on my hips.
"That is no excuse! Winter is drawing closer and I was thinking that maybe we could hold it in December." I told him. "Please?" I gave him the puppy-dog face and he sighed.
"Whatever makes you happy, sweet."
"I love you Bit!"
"I love you, too," he answered.
"Now, I was wondering, should we have a big or small..." I started blabbering on but I knew he really wasn't paying attention. He just sat there stroking my hair and nodding occasionally. He was so funny at times.
"Leena!" I looked up to see everybody in the doorway.
"Hi!" I greeted them like absolutely nothing had happened.
"Mommy!" Jocelyn squealed and soon she was up on the bed giving me a huge bear hug.
"Hey, Jocie. Have you been good?" Jocelyn nodded with her enormous eyes with a familiar innocent look on her face. My innocent face. You could definitely tell who raised her.
"Leena, we were really worried about you," Jamie told me with that serious face of his.
"Oh, you guys shouldn't worry about me! You really think I would die from some wimpy little disease? If I would die young, I would want to die n battle gallantly..." but before I could continue on, Dad raised hand for me to stop.
"Leena, is it all right if we don't talk about things like that?" he begged.
"Sure!"
"It's hard to believe that she has so much energy after coming so close to meeting the Grim Reaper, himself. I guess it was all that sleep," Brad commented. Everybody laughed including me.
"Well, me and Bit were talking about the wedding..." There goes my mouth. All the guys in the room moaned. This definitely was not their favorite topic. Too bad for them!
I hope everybody enjoyed! Please leave a review and the next chap will be up soon! @_@
