Annabelle's point of view:

27 MAY:

SUNDAY:

Through small window in my new room I can feel warm sun rays on my bare skin on hands. I feel much better now cause it's been a few days since the accident. I was recovering so they gave me new room I wasn't emergency anymore. In physically my skin is slowly recovering, I don't feel so much pain. But I can't deal with this pressure. Days were passing slowly I was i guess feeling better I think about what's gonna happen next what will I go to school. I was always A student but now it would be awkward. I don't know.I think about drawing will I draw again ever.I mean doctors said that there will be chance and that is possible but what if they just can't give me back my sight. What will I do. What? I mean I will be able to handle with this year, two a couple of years but whole life that wouldn't be so good. To never see nature my family to never draw. I am super confused. I just don't know what to think. What?I pushed those thoughts out of my head as soon as they appeared. Remember I need to stay positive everything is gonna be okay. Just calm down. Don't cry and don't try to answer on questions on which you don't have answer. Deep breaths. A familiar creaking of I suppose wooden doors. Fast steps.” Hello?” I ask not being able to wait.” Hi” deep, velvety voice that makes me melt inside I would always recognize his magical voice. I didn't want to he sees how desperate I was without him, but without thinking I said “Adrian, you came!” oh my good that sounded too cheerful “Yeah sure I mean I really missed you, and sorry for not coming three days i have to go on training and to my sister and a lot of work to do I'm so sorry.” he said all in one breath and all I could hear was “I missed you!” he missed me oh but what to say now should I say I missed you too or cross over it I raised eyebrows that was my sign that I was thinking “Annabelle, are you okay?” “Should I call the nurse?” how my name sounds from his mouth ne sounded so worried why he needs to be so cute?! “No i just wandered for a moment.” “And...” I started insecure “I mean...” damn blush I'm probably red tomato now “I missed you too.” I said quiet but I know that he heard. “And it's okay for not coming you probably have a lot of obligations.” I said a little sad. He noticed that and quickly changed subject.” How are you feeling are you better? “I mean I am but you know....” I was still vulnerable I feel his presence he is closer and closer oh here we go. He placed his big hands around my waist and I placed my delicate hands on his neck. His neck is so warm and his skin so soft. I placed my head oh his shoulder. How I love this position how I feel warm, safe,happy and loved in his hug. I couldn't help but smile. But again small tears slipped down my face I needed someone to show my emotions I need to be strong because of my family and friends I can't cry in front of them because they are already enough sad because of me. And here in his warm hug I can feel like I can do whatever I want. Another tear slipped down my face. They were falling like river. I could hear Adrian soft velvety voice:”Hey everything is gonna be okay.” He released me from his hug and sat next to me he took my right hand. It sounds like a cliche but my hand fit perfectly in his hand. My cold delicate hand against his big warm hand. I could feel sparks so many sparks like I'm gonna explode just from his touch. Then he used his other hand to wipe my tears. Why I feel like this why I feel firework between us is this is how love looks like? He interrupted my thoughts by question:”Are you sure that you are fine? He asked soft and then removed his hand from my cheek it felt like punishment I yearn for his touch. I answered stuttering:”I'm fi-fine.” “Okay.” I want to keep this conversation I want to talk with him to hear his wonderful voice:”So you said you're training but what are you training?” I said trying to sound excited but sport isn't really my thing i don't know anything absolutely nothing about it I understand quantum physics, but I don't have clue for anything about sport I'm like the most horrible person in sport that you will ever meet! Then he started a little uncomfortable:”I train basketball for already 13 years.” “Oh!" I can tell I'm impressed.” “Are you good at?” why am i asking this uf he chuckled his deep smile like music to my ears i just couldn't help but place big grin on my face.” I don't know what do you think?' he asked trying to sound cheeky and he definitely succeeded in that so I blushed I can feel heat on my cheeks so I decided to be honest:”Honestly I don't know anything about the sport so i really don't know but I'm sure if u have trophies and medals you are winner wright?” that made him laugh really laugh from heart:”Yes but you are really clueless about sport?” “So?” I said cheeky. “Seriously tell me how many trophies do you have?” “Around 500.” “Holly cow that means you are good at!” I said he was laughing so hard that caused me to giggle but not one of those beautiful giggles I mean high-pitched laughter that could break a glass that's how my laugh actually sounds. His fingers were still intertwined with my fingers. So I felt happy and safe in his company I forgot that I can't see him. As soon as I realized that I stopped laughing. I see only this dark I hate it! “Hey, what's wrong?” he said that with soft and a little protective tone in his voice then he moved a piece of hair from my face to behind my ear again those sparks flying.Then he pulled me in his embrace so that I placed my head on his hard chest I can hear his heart beat against my head and that is so peaceful immediately I feel better. I feel bad for doing this to him but I need comfort that only he can give me. Couple of minutes after he released me from his hug that made me feel like I am the only girl in the world. I wanted to ease the tension, so I started to talk: "Well tell me something about you.” “What you want to know?” he said while he chuckled a little.” Everything.” I said eagerly.” “So I am from here I was born in this town. I'm seventeen for two and a half months I'll be eighteen I love basketball I want to become a basketball player, okay I'm a nerd too I love math and that's pretty much it? He said all that so passionately “Well i am seventeen and i'll be eighteen for around 5 months and I adore art and I wanted to be artist but now I'm not so sure in it...” I said trying to cover how upset I was because of that so I continued “But never mind I'm a nerd too and I love every single subject accept of P. E!” He smiled oh that sound is adorable “So that would be pretty much it?” “And yes do you have siblings?” “Yes actually I do my younger sister Lucy she's four.” “Oh that is so adorable.” I said with too much happiness in my voice. For next three hour we were chatting my hand in his. And we discovered that we have a lot of things in common first we were bad in singing and dancing that we are incredibly neat. I found out that his favorite movie is “The godfather.” my favorite movie is “Notebook” I am romantic! He loves reading book so do i but he prefers action, drama, science fiction and i prefer romance and comedy. I found out almost all about him and he finds out almost all about me. While talking to him I felt loved, happy and safe. While we were laughing about some random stuff Katty decided to come.” Wright at the moment.” i mumbled under my breath so no one didn't hear me I felt desperate. Adrian immediately moved his hand from my hand. I already missed his touch. He moved from my bed and sat to the chair.Katty replaced him and sat next to me giggling.” I need to go now I will come later.” “Sure.” I said sad I was sad because he is leaving because i feel so happy with him.” Bye Katty, Bye Annabelle.” “Bye Adrian.” me and Katty said in unison. Not long after that I heard the door closing.” Well, well...” Katty said amused “What?” I asked and a little blushed." You know what!”she said to loud with too much excitement in her voice “We're just friends.” I said annoyed “It doesn't look like that!” she said teasingly.” Okay let it go, tell me something about school what's going on?” “Changing subject!” Katty said through her high laugh “Okay so nothing important like every single day...” I stopped her “And what's up with Donn?” i asked amused while giggling “No-nothing.” she stuttered clearly nervous “Tell me all!” it did not take much convincing before she blurted everything “Well he is being really nice and he is cute and I like him a lot!” she said that so soft like Donn is her whole world wright now “I can see he means you a lot!” I said “Same for you!” she said happy. So she was talking and talking and talking a couple of hours about school, Donn and Hollywood. And that is why I love her she is always positive and she spreads that positive energy to everyone so you always feel comfortably in her company! Again the door opening.Katty whispered in my ear “We'll be talking more about Adrian later.” Then she said hello to my mum and dad and leaved the room. My mum sat on my right side and my dad sat on my left side. Mum took my right hand and placed her familiar soft lips on my skin dad did the same to my other hand my mum started:”How are you feeling sweetheart?” “Good mum.” I don't want to worry them “I'm fine.” I said trying to sound happy. Mum and dad both hugged me support means a world to me so I hugged them like my life depends from that hug.” I yawned slightly. Okay sweetheart now have some rest!” my mum said trying to cover how sad she was.” We will be in waiting room.” my dad said “Love you!” they said in unison.” Love you too.” they gave me one last kiss in for head, and leaved the room with fast steps.” Life is complicated.” I said it aloud and deeply exhaled. So I decided i really need some rest so I drifted in soft pillow letting my tears to go. With those tears I fell a sleep......................
