Where the hell am I? Everything is so dark. Where's all the light? Oh okay then, I'll just blindly find my way out. 943Please respect copyright.PENANAkA6xgRjKLj
"Ashley! Ashley! Come on Ash, don't leave." I heard a voice yell.943Please respect copyright.PENANAEwjNxQB6y0
Don't leave? Well, if I'm gone then where am I and where am I supposed to be?943Please respect copyright.PENANAvJ3bAzSIZz
Man, I can't see a damn thing. Its so dark!943Please respect copyright.PENANACqJu1mZLLX
Oh, yes! An opening. I started to run as fast as I could towards the light. For some reason, it feels like I've been running for so long, did I even get any closer? I keep running, faster and faster. Its just keeps repeating. I'm stuck in a time loop, I struggle to reach out to the glow of light and warmth ahead of me. I jumped and held tight onto the little ray of sunshine that I've been chasing for so long.943Please respect copyright.PENANAx2oUrWsu1F
I finally woke up. I'm in the hospital and Jacob is holding my hand. He's alone with me in the room.943Please respect copyright.PENANAzm4ilYPNdt
"Jeez, your hands are cold." he said worried. Can he even see me?943Please respect copyright.PENANAaxiarSQw8M
I look at my heart meter, its not working right. Its not beeping! Its just one long beep! I shake myself vigorously, hoping I'd wake up. 943Please respect copyright.PENANA26qKbP1CxA
"Jacob! JACOB!" I screamed on the top of my lungs. He didn't even budge!943Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5Z1GTqvlu
I reached into my pocket and felt the ray of light that I grabbed earlier. I looked right into the ball of sunshine and made my wish.943Please respect copyright.PENANAo3YohTluZP
"I wish to be back on Earth, alive with my loved ones, I don't care about anything else! I'd rather be sick my whole life then be dead before I got to actually know them!" I screamed.943Please respect copyright.PENANAg44fecMDwi
Then, I actually woke up.943Please respect copyright.PENANAD55Gn4y8L3
My heart rate machine was beeping on point and Jacob is holding my hand. The room is empty except for us. I lay my other hand on top of his.943Please respect copyright.PENANAAvRYH3ZtqX
"Jacob...?" wow, that came out uglier then expected. My voice sounded super croaky. Yay, embarrassed for the second time today.943Please respect copyright.PENANAf8XQD4vdRS
Wait Today? Was it Today? I mean, is it today? What day is it!?943Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZqxPmcUvJ
He smiled at me, relieved. How I love that smile of his.943Please respect copyright.PENANAC0c32TWEuE
"What happened...?" I know how cheesy that sounded, kind of cliché, but still. I am completely clueless. 943Please respect copyright.PENANArzZTYWkJTJ
"Well, you were in a coma for a month, and you kind of died for about 5 minutes..." he replied, trying to sound calm.943Please respect copyright.PENANAdLPOsXSD73
I was dead? What? 943Please respect copyright.PENANALCpVEjp6WQ
He laughed at the confused expression on my face.943Please respect copyright.PENANAJoyZsjZJcP
"You're so cute." he said between laughs.943Please respect copyright.PENANAJSZcUWNea7
I blushed so hard just now. He just called me cute!943Please respect copyright.PENANA16SBZR4IT2
"You're not so bad yourself." I joked, struggling to avoid the massive blushing I am doing.943Please respect copyright.PENANABNY508gV4w
"Hey, Ash. I have a great idea."943Please respect copyright.PENANAdinwrDoFai
"... I'm scared...That's pretty rare." 943Please respect copyright.PENANAFh2F8ho9VR
"Hey, too far." We laughed.943Please respect copyright.PENANAdMFYkrrulA
"So um...what is it?" I asked anxiously.943Please respect copyright.PENANAUGsTbJlBZi
"You should be mine."943Please respect copyright.PENANADR9OxFXXtK
...ahem...did I just hear him right?943Please respect copyright.PENANAMXS6dUMpfG
"Ashley, I don't care how sick you are, I don't care if you can't walk or die before me. I wanna be with you. Even if you can't have kids or stuck in this hospital forever. I will be here for you, everyday to help you live this hell, because I know it would be hell seeing a world without you everyday." Jacob finished.943Please respect copyright.PENANASWlgshXOUc
Wow, did he write that? It came out perfectly.943Please respect copyright.PENANAcUbvRJ9kJu
I smiled, man, I was embarrassed. 943Please respect copyright.PENANAm2krBYIXcp
He actually made me cry. That was beautiful, I think that's really what I wanted to hear. A person that will love me forever and beyond.943Please respect copyright.PENANAy1aWeMjAoZ
"Of course Jacob, I couldn't ever find a reason in the world to let you go." I said.943Please respect copyright.PENANA15mcQXG0ae
When did I become so mushy?943Please respect copyright.PENANAp9UUvctz0y
He leaned in and I must admit, I leaned closer as well and we kissed. Oh my gosh. My first kiss and it was amazing. Geez,Jacob; you're tearing me to pieces, making me do things I wouldn't usually do. You're making me love you so much it hurts. I don't have a doubt in the world.
