Heartbeats

Chapter 6 Questions

Gunthers POV

After getting into bed with Kick, I wrapped my arms around him and went to sleep. I woke up when he got up to use the bathroom, I called his name, he turned around and I couldn't help but smile, especially while he was walking away and his red briefs were showing through the back of the hospital gown. I got up and went to the soda machine down the hall and I bought 2 Cheetah Chugs and went back to the room. Reaching the doorway, Kick had his back to me and I decided to surprise him, inching towards him as quietly as I could, I wrapped my arms around him feeling him lean back into me. I waved a can of Cheetah Chug in front of his face, he opened it and chugged it down. Once he was done, I went to the bathroom to relieve my bladder and freshen up a little. Once I was done, I went back to Kick who was under the covers, I was worried he might have been cold so I asked if I should get some more covers but he said no. I shrugged and sat in the chair close to his bed, watching TV, a little while later he went back to the bathroom and came back dressed, he then went to the other chair in the room and moved it next to mine combining them.

I was about to rest my right arm on the middle arm rest when our hands touched, I immediately took away my hand not wanting to overstep his boundaries. He said nothing but he looked like I just kicked him while he was down and his left hand squeezed the armrest. No, I don't care anymore, its time I grew some balls and made a move, so I slipped his hand into mine, squeezing gently. I felt my heartbeat quicken, fearing that he would tell me to let go but he didn't and he actually squeezed back. I felt like jumping for joy, but then again, maybe he's just in a really good mood, oh well I'll take what I can get. I glanced his way and Kick was staring at me, I instantly wondered if something was on my face. "What's up Kick?" he blushed a little and leaned in closer and closer until our foreheads were touching, he looked like he was hesitating. On instinct I closed the distance between us and crushed our lips together. Kissing Kick was a dream come true.

His lips were so soft and I could just feel the fireworks; it was like I was in a dream. The kiss left us both breathless and we went back to watching TV and couldn't help but smile. I turned to him, "So, what does this make us?" he raised his eyebrows and shrugged. I felt a little hurt when a thought hit me, am I just a temporary substitute until he can start doing stunts again? Would he just throw away my heart once we leave the hospital? These thoughts were like taking knives to the heart, I wanted to cry but at the same time, I wanted to prove that I can be just as strong so I said nothing. He took out his phone and started typing with his right hand, I was just about to let go of his left hand when my own phone buzzed. I unlocked it and went to my email with a marriage request from Kick on Facebook. I looked up and he was blushing, looking into my eyes from his lashes shrugging.

I smiled god knows how wide and accepted it, our phones both beeped but he kept looking at the TV and I looked at my screen, Congratulations, you are now married to Clarence Kickass Buttowski. I looked at him, looked into his dark brown eyes, "This makes us official Gunther, you're now my boyfriend." he blushed even more after the word boyfriend. I put a hand on his cheek and kissed him. He was red as a tomato but he squeezed my hand and smiled looking into my eyes. Oh Thor, if I am dreaming or in a coma don't ever wake me up, he let go of my hand stretching when there was a knock at the door and his parents came in, telling us it's time to leave, I looked at Kick and he winked, "Let's go Gunther." and I smiled the whole time, who knew that dreams came true? He again grabbed my hand and we left the hospital.
