Over the next few days Sienna had been acting strange. We had been to see Dad a few times, even though I didn't think it was a good idea because she was clearly afraid of something.
She acted more strangely with each visit and I was beginning to worry, but whenever I asked it was always I'm fine or stop worrying.
I was now stood in the hospital waiting room, waiting for Sienna because she had insisted that she wanted to see Dad alone, I wasn't so sure, but she persuaded me, so here I was, waiting for her. Where is she? I thought to myself. She had been in there for longer then she said she would and visiting hours were almost up.
I started walking towards Dad's room and I could hear raised voices, but as soon as Dad saw me they stopped.
"Hey" I said, Dad didn't answer me, I didn't expect him to really, he was acting coldly towards me and I didn't really understand why.
"You coming? Visiting times up" I said to Sienna.
"Yeah, I was just coming" she told me with a smile.
"Bye Dad" she said, but he didn't reply, he just looked at her, she gave him a weak smile and we left the room.
"Why didn't you want me to come see Dad with you?" I asked as we walked to the hospital exit.
"I don't know, I just wanted to talk to him, okay?" I looked at her puzzled "If it was that much of a problem you could have come in" she said in a snappy tone.
"Fine" I replied.
She stopped and turned to face me.
"Sorry, I don't mean to snap at you, can we just not talk about Dad, I just want to be with you and forget about everything" she said.
"Okay, me and you, I got it" I said with a grin.
"Pizza and DVD?" I asked her, once we got to the car.
"Don't forget the wine" she said.
"Oh no, we both know what happens when you start on the wine" I said, in a teasing tone.
"Oh come on, I'm not that bad" she said.
"Sure you're not" I said with a chuckle.
...
"What Film?" I asked Sienna once we were back at the flat.
"The Notebook"
"Oh no, please don't make me sit through that"
"When have you seen The Notebook?" she asked me, surprised.
"Well, Texas made me sit through the whole film about a million times, it was torture" I said.
"Well, she had good taste, it's amazing, it's like one of my favourite films, ever" she said.
"Fine, we can watch it, put it in and I'll get the pizza"
"And wine" she called after me.
"Of course" I chuckled.
...
The film had about ten minutes left and the pizza was gone. Luckily I managed to stop Sienna drinking the whole bottle of wine.
"Mark" I heard Sienna say beside me.
"Hmm" I said.
"Can you go get me some ice-cream, it's in the fridge"...
"Thank you" she said, after I came back with her ice-cream.
She started eating it and I sat back down beside her.
"That was so sad" she said once the film finished.
I looked at her and started laughing, which caused her to raise her eyebrow at me.
"I'm sorry, it's just, you have some, ice-cream... right there" I said, pointing to the corner of her month.
She went to wipe it off but I stopped her...
"Here, let me..." I said, leaning in towards her, I reached out and wiped it away gently. Our eyes locked in an intense gaze and I closed the gap between us and kissed her.
Every time we kissed it felt like our first all our again. The feeling of her lips against mine was quickly becoming my favourite thing; I craved her with every part of me.
The kiss slowly became heated and she climbed on top of me...
