Chapter 5: Jayden's Shift
Jayden's POV
So now, my secret crush on Emily isn't a secret anymore since everyone knows about it. Oh well.
Before I left from outside, I saw a hint of yellow flowers in the grass. When I went closer up to them, they really were yellow. It suddenly reminded me of Emily. Beautiful, quiet, and smelled sweet.
I decided to pick a few flowers for Emily and went in the kitchen to find a vase to put them in.
When I got to the recovery room, I saw that Emily was sound asleep. So I put the flowers beside her bed and pulled up a chair. I didn't have anything to do, so I watched her as she slept. I couldn't help but think about how cute she looked when she slept. I softly touched her face, feeling how soft it feel.
After a few minutes went by, I got up and walked around alittle. There isn't alot of stuff in the recovery room, so there wasn't much to look at.
Suddenly, I heard Emily turning around from behind me. I didn't pay much attention to her until I heard her mumble something. I thought she was talking to me so I quickly ran and sat down beside her. I whispered "Emily?"
She was turning around like crazy and still mumbling something that I couldn't understand. I grabbed her by the shoulders and shook her gently. "Emily, are you ok? Emily, can you hear me?"
"Get away! Get away!" Her words were coming in more clearly, but she was still sleeping.
"Emily, wake up! Wake up!" I shook her alittle harder but she didn't wake and kept raising her voice.
"Leave me alone! Stop, don't! Don't. NOOO!" Emily gasped as she woke up and sat straight up, eyes wide opened. She turned her head and looked at me. "Jayden?"
"Emily, are you ok? You kept tossing and turning. I kept trying to wake you but you kept yelling at me to get away."
"Oh Jayden! I'm sorry! I was just having a nightmare." Emily started wiping sweat off her head.
"I'll go get you some water." I ran to the kitchen and quickly got her a glass of water.
I then came back and handed her the glass.
Emily drank the water like she had just ran a mile and handed me back the glass. "Thanks, I needed that."
"So what were you dreaming about?"
"I dreamed that the nighlok from today found me and took me into a secret place that I didn't know where. He's started slashing, hitting, and cutting me. He was laughing hysterically while I was crying, telling him to stop. But he wouldn't. I couldn't morph to stop him because I felt weak and couldn't find my morpher. I felt helpless." I noticed tears coming out of her eyes, so I wiped them away.
"It's ok. It was just dream." I slowly rubbed her back, which made her stop crying. "You know, if that nighlok ever comes and takes you to a unknown place, I would look high and low, never stopping, until I would find you."
Emily looked up at me and smiled slightly. I saw her look over at the nightstand with the flowers on them. "Where did those flowers come from?"
"I picked them from outside. I thought you would like them and they reminded me of you."
I noticed Emily blush, looking away. Seeing her blush made me want to blush but I tried hard not to.
"Thank you Jayden, that was very sweet of you." Emily smiled, still not looking at me. "So what are you doing here anyway?"
"Ji made us watch over you in the night, in case you had problems. Both me and Mike voluteered to stay up and watch over you." I saw that as soon as I mentioned Mike, her eyes lit up. "Next week, Ji's will have someone different other than me or Mike to watch over you. At around 1-2 o'clock, Mike will be here for his shift."
"Oh, I see."
"I have a question. Is Mike your, umm, boyfriend?"
"Oh, uhh. I'm not sure. I don't know. Why ask?"
"Just wondering. Well, you should get some rest. And don't worry. If the nighlok shows up again, just remember I'm here to protect you from him."
Emily smiled at me with that adorable smile of hers and layed back down. "Thanks Jayden. You're a sweety."
A few minutes passed by and Emily slowly went back to sleep, as well as I had too.
