My eyes open to bright sunshine and my thoughts focus on Logan.
My morning routine goes smoothly and soon I enter Logan's room again.
"Hey Logie", I say and kiss his lips softly.
"Hey Nessie," he doesn't sound convincingly.
"How are you?" I ask him.
Logan looks away, letting out a small, heartbreaking sigh.
"Well, how do you expect me to feel, Sweetheart?" he asks me. "Please, tell me, I just wanna know what my answer should be," hurt present in his shaky voice.
"Logan, look, I know this is hard for you..." I start, he cuts me off.
"You haven't been paralyzed, have you?" he asks again.
"Logan..." I start.
"You can't know what it's like if you haven't experienced it yourself," Logan's voice is quite harsh now.
"Please, would you let me finish?" I beg him. "I know you need time to get used to this difficult situation. Honey, please, be honest with me. I just wanna hear the truth."
"Okay," Logan sighs. "I'm quite fine."
Suddenly, something moves under the cover. I must be dreaming, Logan's paralyzed...
"Glad to hear that," I reply.
The same movement under the covers, af if he moved his toes... Well, I'm going crazy or maybe...
"Please, do this again," I demand.
"I'm sorry, Nessie, I've no idea what you're talking about right now," he seems surprised. "I can only do this, Honey," he says, slowly sitting up on his hospital bed. "Ta-daa. My only physical ability that has somehow remained... Woah, woah, woah..." now he noticed what I meant. "Did you see? I really moved my toes, REALLY!" tears roll down his pale cheek.
"Yes, I did!" I say, hugging Logan pretty tightly. "I'm so proud of you, Logie."
"How's it possible?" he asks me while hugging me.
"Some kind of recovery may occur within 72 hours after the accident," I recall some possible medical explanation.
"Nothing even matters!" Logan laughs cheerfully, the sound I've been longing for. He then sings.
"Cause the world stops when I put my arms around you, around you.
And nothing even matters
And nothing even matters.
It's like one for the haters,
Two for all of those who try to shut us down.
They don't really know.
There ain't nothing they can do that can tear us apart.
No. I don't care about the money, don't care about the clothes.
When we're together, baby, anything goes.
We don't even need to prove what we feel in our hearts.
This wall we built together, there ain't no way of knocking it over.
We'll be here forever, getting closer, and closer baby.
Cause the world stops when I put my arms around you, around you. (oh woah)
And nothing even matters. (eh)
And nothing even matters. (eh)
They can all talk, say what they want about us, about us. (oh woah)
And nothing even matters. (woah)
And nothing even matters. (eh)
It's like the sound goes off and the people all freeze.
They disappear and it's just you and me.
Anything you want to do, anything that you please. (oh woah no)
Forget about our problems, forget about our past.
I've seen the future and I know we're gonna last.
Every second I'm with you just goes so fast. (woah oh woah)
This wall we built together, there ain't no way of knocking it over.
We'll be here forever, that I told you, that I told you baby.
Cause the world stops when I put my arms around you, around you. (oh woah)
And nothing even matters. (eh)
And nothing even matters. (eh)
They can all talk, say what they want about us, about us. (oh woah)
And nothing even matters. (woah)
And nothing even matters.
Nothing even matters. (woah)
And nothing even matters. (woah)
We don't even need to fight.
Everything will be alright. (oh yea)
Nothing even matters, but you and I.
Cause the world stops when I put my arms around you, around you. (oh woah)
And nothing even matters, nothing even matters.
And nothing even matters.
They can all talk, say what they want about us, (Say what they want woooah) about us. (oh woah oh)
And nothing even matters. (woah)
And nothing even matters.
(They can take my money, take my cars. Oh woah oh woah)
Cause the world stops when I put my arms around you, around you. (oh woah)
And nothing even matters, nothing even matters.
And nothing even matters. (Baby)
They can all talk, say what they want about us, about us. (oh woah)
And nothing even matters. (woah)
And nothing even matters."
"Now that's the Logan I love," I say, smiling. "I guess the doctor should see you, Honey. He'll be surprised."
