Ben’s POV:
At that moment, we had arrived in the hospital, the nurses took him to the operation room, while I had to go to the reception to fill in Kirt’s form, luckily I knew much about him, and after filling the forms, I sat there and wait for the doctor to go out. Normally I was always patient. But then when my best friend was almost dead, I was not having any of it. Going back and forth, blaming myself, crying non-stop, punching the wall, etc. well I had to do without anyone noticing. I had to wait for like half an hour, even though I had missed the lessons but I need him to be safe with me. Anyway, the doctor came out with the result. ‘Kirt Richardson?’, she asked. ‘Doctor, I’m here for him. How is he, is it serious?’, I was too hesistant to hear her. ‘It appears that your friend had some stabs in his stomach but it didn’t go through his vital organs, which is safe. We had stiched his wounds. He is out of danger.’ I felt a relief in my mind but still worried. ‘Could you tell me what room he’s in now?’ ‘It’s room 208, the private room for a patient. And remember, she should not eat until tomorrow, but he is allowed to drink some water only, let him avoid eating junk food or fast, sweet food for a week.’ I thanked her and rushed to the room.
I opened the door slowly and quietly because he was sleeping soundly with the help of breathing machines and more. I sat next to him and held his big, warm hand and place it on my cheek. I was shedding tears and kept mumbling to myself hoping he could open his eyes and look at me. Then I was dizzy and let myself to sleep.
Kirt’s POV:
Well, I was too famous for fangirls to see me, but they didn’t know that I’m gay and I felt disgusted when the girls met me, not when Ben was with me, he was months older than me but he was younger to me because of his feminine face, dark brown eyes and a sweet smile on his cheerful face, and he was shorter than me too, just centimetres. My parents were out for ‘business’ that they didn’t remember me anymore, I felt sad but whenever I was alone, he was with me to hang out. I even love teasing him so much that he kept scolding me like a mom would teach her son. One day, at break time, there was a girl who was crazy for me that she held a knife and stabbed me, but I had escaped from her and reached to the entrance when I saw Ben looked at me terrified at the scene, he fought her until the teacher any my pals arrived to stop her, while Ben took the chance to let me lay on my lap, I couldn’t hear what he said but I didn’t want him to stay away from me, too. So I said to him in a hoarse voice: ‘Please ~ don’t ~ leave ~ me.’ I could tell him he was sad and heartbroken at the same time. And then my world went black and numb.
A while later, I opened my eyes to see white all over. I was literally in surprise. ‘Am I in heaven? No, no, no, no, no. It’s not true.’ Then I was an idiot to realise that I was in a hospital room, just me and Ben?
Wait, he took me there?
I saw him sleeping tiredly, maybe he was too worried for me. I could see he was blushing while sleeping. I woke him up to see him excited to see me awake.
