Ironic
Noah lay restlessly, he couldn't get comfortable because of his legs. He was aware of a few nurese and doctors in the room, but he was drowsy from some drug they had given him. His eyelids were beginning to feel heavy but sleep wouldn't come. He could only think of one thing ; Kit.
It was still ironic to him that when he realised he loved her that she thought he was lying. It had taken him a long time to realise it. So many times he had dismissed it.At the time he had been unable to explain how he felt when he heard she was leaving and he was si happy when she decided to come back to Summer Bay and work in the D.I.C with him. Noah had noticed how much she had changed and grown up and how beautiful she had become. For some reason he hadn't been able to tell her any of it and had carried on as before. Noah was too scared of losing Kit or hurting her that he kept his distance.
Now, he thought miserably, he had pushed her away and treated her so badly.
He was awakened from his thoughts immediatly, Kit was by his beside. He blinked but when he tried to speak his mouth and brain would not connect. A seering pain shot through him and brought tears to his eyes.
"Noah,Noah!" Kit called to him urgently. "Can you hear me?" she pleaded Noah nodded as gently as he could so he didn't cause anymore pain.
"You had me so worried, the hospital even rang me!" Kit talked on not really paying attention. She was trying to stop herself from crying. She failed as a tear slid down her right cheek.
"It's okay." Noah croaked
"No it's not! This is all my fault. I'm so sorry! I think I should go and leave you in peace, I'll be back soon though." Kit headed for the door.
"Wait! I need to apologise for yesterday, I'll explain when I'm feeling a bit better."
Kit nodded and exited the room in floods of tears. 'It's my fault' Kit thought to herself. 'I shouldn't have let him go or got so mad, I probably made him worse'
Kit wiped her eyes but because she wasn't looking where she was going and walked right into Scott.
"Kit!" he exclaimed "What's wrong? Is Noah worse?"
Kit nodded. "Scott it's all my fault I feel so bad.
Scott gave her a hug and they went to the waiting room for a cup of coffee together.
"Okay Kit, it's not your fault." Scott said trying to reassure his sister as best as possible.
"Yes it is Scott!" Kit cried. " If I hadn't lost it with him he would be vaguely okay."
"I can't believe he won't ever walk again or surf." Scott thought out loud.
"That's all my fault as well!" Kit told him what had happened earlier that morning.
"No, Kit stop beating yourself up over this. I know you'd never do anything to hurt him."
Kit nodded and felt a bit better after all Scott had said.
"I'm guessing you still feel the same for Noah." Scott grinned Kit smiled at him. "Well...!"
Noah was having a sub-conscious argument with himself about what would be best for Kit. On one hand he wanted to be with her and make her happy which had been what she wanted. Then on the other hand he wondered if it would be fair on her if he wasn't going to be able to do the things he could before.
Noah fell asleep wondering about all of the possibilities.
Kit got up early and went to Yabbie Creek hospital even thought it was way before visiting hours. She didn't care. The nurse who had rung her yesterday was talking to the receptionist when Kit reached the hopsital floor that Noah was on.
"Hi Kit, have you come to see your boyfriend?" the nurse asked.
"Noah's not my boyfriend." Kit replied The nurse winked. "Of course not." Kit blushed and she knew it.
"I haven't seen Noah yet today because I've only just got in but I'll take you along to his room.
"Thanks." Kit smiled at the nurse.
They walked along the corridor in silence. Kit didn't feel much like talking anyway. She had butterflies in her stomach and was regretting not having any breakfast The nurse pushed open the door, one doctor was already in there.
Noah was sleeping. Or was he?
