The next day after Chad and Zeke came I walked in to see Kristi holding a picture. She looked up and smiled. She then handed me the picture. It was the picture with her and Troy. She looked happy and so did he. He still had the bandages but he was still cute.
"Oh, that is such a good picture!" She looked at me and goes,
"Yeah right, you're jealous. I just thought you would like to have it."
"No you keep it. You are the one that was there." I handed it back to her and got my coat on and the cart.
"I am gonna go make my rounds! I will be back in like an hour."
I made my way around the hall and had to stop. I started crying and it was making me miserable. How could I have fallen for someone so quickly. I knew I shouldn't have gotten attached. This is all my fault. I then made my way to Troy's room.
I knocked on the door and opened it up. Troy was laying on the bed. He popped his head up.
"Hello?"
"Hey! How are you today?"
"Stephanie! I am great! How are you?"
"I am good! I sure did have a good time yesterday!"
"I did too! But, you sounded different. Were you okay?"
"Yea. It's just, my throat was hurting and it must have done something." He nodded and took my hand.
"The doctors are 100 sure I am going to get my eye sight back." He turned towards me and touched my face. He ran his fingers down my cheek and whispers,
"I am going to miss this though. Touching your face and having this alone time with you. You have truely helped me over the past couple of weeks. If it weren't for you, I think I would have gone mad."
I started to tear up and before I knew it, I was crying. He started to wipe my tears away and goes,
"Stephanie, why are you crying? Baby, you didn't do anything wrong. If anything, you made it better. Please don't cry." I hugged him and he just held me tighter. I then looked up at him. He was touching my cheeks with both hands and looking down at me. I reached up and kissed him. He ran his down my arms and opened his mouth to deepen the kiss. I wrapped my arms around his neck and held him.
When I broke away he said to me breathless, " When my eyesight is back. Is that going to change everything?"
"Yes."
"Why?" He kissed my cheek and lips again and I smiled.
"Because, it just will." He ran his hand down my cheek and goes,
"Stephanie, will we ever meet after this?"
"No, no we wont." he dropped his hand and goes,
"Well, I just don't understand."
"I am sorry Troy, I just can't do this. I have to go." I get up and walk out the room. Crying the whole way down to the nurses station. When I got there Kristi looked up at me and walks up to me. I wave my hand telling her to go away. I walk into the bathroom and get into one of the stalls. This is harder then I thought!
