Chase POV
“Chase!” The nurse yelled.
“That’s me” I yell while walking toward her.
“Is she okay?”
“Hi chase, Cari is okay, she’s awake now, she didn’t eat or drink anything since yesterday afternoon so she’s just a little low on energy which caused her to faint. We placed her on an iv and she should be fine to leave in a little bit. If you can get her to eat something that would be great.”
“Cari loves sweets by the way,” she says while winking at me. She hands me a paper with the room number on it and leaves.
I feel like this big weight has been lifted off my chest and I let out a sigh of relief. Thank god it’s nothing serious. s**t! Why am I this affected by her? this is so weird.
Stopping at the vending machine on my way to her room and I buy a Hershey’s with almonds, it’s one of my favorite candies so I hope she likes it.
When I reach her door it looks like all of the other room doors except for the silver number that states 105. I clear my throat and knock then I'm hit with the most beautiful sound ever “come in” she calls out.
Her voice sounds so sweet to me, I can’t explain why but it does. Damn it Chase what's wrong with you?.
As I open the door her scent fills my senses and I see her trying to quickly fix her hair as if it was messed up before. It’s cute that she even thought to care about her hair when she’s the one on a hospital bed. Priorities am I right?.
“Hey,” I say as walk into the room and I swear her heartbeat begins to quicken at the sound of my voice.
Do I have an effect on her the way she does on me?
I’m standing at the side of her bed now and hand her the candy: “Here I got you a Hershey’s with almonds, the nurse said you had to eat something. I hope you like it.”
“Thank you, it’s actually one of my faves but you didn’t have to get it for me. I can pay you back for it” She states while grabbing the candy.
She’s crazy that she thinks I’ll take the money for it.
“Don’t worry about it, I wanted to get it for you, you need to eat something.”
“Okay cool, thanks,” she said.
She then opens the candy wrapper and begins to eat it as if it's the best thing she’s ever tasted. I’m just sitting here holding back my laughter while I watch her make a chocolatey mess of her fingers and lips.
When she notices that I’m looking at her she has a confused expression on her face, so I smile and tap my lip which causes her to touch hers leaving even more of a mess on her face. That's it, that's all I can take, I bust out laughing which causes her to get annoyed.
“What?! Why are you laughing at me, you got a problem?!”
“f**k, I didn’t mean to make you yell, I just can’t help but laugh at the chocolatey mess on your face, I'm sorry if I offended you in any way”
“Oh,” she responds while cleaning her lands with a tissue and licking the chocolate off of her lips. Damn, I wish it was my lips she was licking
.
Her voice breaks me out of my thoughts.
“Thank you, The nurse told me that you brought me in. I’m Cari by the way.”
“You’re welcome but, you don’t have to thank me. I’m Chase.”
Our eyes lock on each other and it’s as if we’re stuck in a trance and nothing around us matters, it’s just the two of us in our own little world.
All of a sudden the door slams open and I inwardly groan.
Why did someone have to interrupt our moment?
