Call me Baby
Chapter 36
Kristen's POV
It was hard for me to fall asleep and yet here I am awake, it's like 8 in the morning. I'll just wait for a nurse to take some blood samples today and I'll go to sleep again.
Then the door opens.
'Good Morning, Ms. Miles. I'm here---" I cut her off 'Oh Olivia, I know why you're here." I tell her smiling and she chuckled
'You're getting used to be here huh?" she says as she takes some samples
'Yep, you're my sister now" I say and she chuckled and shake her head
'Oh there's a young man outside, he was early, I think he didn't sleep. Should I let him in?" she asks as she picks up her stuff
Kyle, didn't sleep? Why is he here so early?
'Yeah, sure" I say and lay down and close my eyes, as I hear the door slowly opening
'Why are you here early, Kyle?" I say as I open my eyes
Then my eyes widen.
'Sebastian" I whisper
'Kristen"
'What are you doing here?" I ask him
'To see if what I heard was true"
'Did Bianca tell you----" I was cut off by Ian, mom and dad comes in
'What are you doing here?" Ian asks angrily
'All of you decided to keep this from me?" Sebastian asks me ignoring Ian
'Because it was the best and only choice I had" I say
'We'll leave so you both can talk" Mom says and I nod smiling at her, Ian and Dad were reluctant to leave but they both understood.
'Best choice for me" he whispers and laugh sarcastically
'Yes. It was and will always will be"
'You decided without asking me, because you thought it was the best for me. How did you know it was the best for me?"
'I didn't want you to watch someone dying all over again. Someone you love. I wanted you to be happy"
'You know that I love you and yet you did this to me. Happy? You're the only reason that I was happy. Why are you like this? Don't you know not being able to know how are you? Where are you? Who are you with? Kills me every fucking day?" he shouts
'Wouldn't it kill you more if you stayed and watch me die? Wouldn't it kill you more if you stayed with me then lose me all over again? Yes, it would. That's why I decided for you" I tell him as calm as I could
'And I did tell you. Remember when you saw me and Kyle before, he brought me home right? I said I called you that day but you refused to believe me. That day, I called because I had a sudden pain in my chest, I planned to tell you but you didn't answer" I took a deep breath
'I called him. That's the day he knew about my condition. It was supposed to be you. Then I went home, you found me in his arms. I told you I was dying, didn't I? You didn't believe me, so I thought maybe, it's better now that you don't know, you don't care anyway"
I tell him, I was hurting him now and I know that but I guess this is the right thing to do, hurt him now and he'll eventually hate me. And if he does, he wouldn't be crying over me.
I feel so bad hurting him and bringing up the past but this was the only choice I have for him to let me go. Completely.
He smiled 'That's not going to work. If you think telling me those words would make me leave you, then you're wrong. I won't. I know what my mistakes are and if you think pointing them out today would make me feel guilty and enough to leave you then keep dreaming. I'm guilty but I will make it up to you, even if it takes forever"
'There's no forever" I shouted and my chest begins to hurt again, and I held my chest
'Hey hey, relax, breathe with me come on" He says holding me in his arms 'I'm sorry for making you mad. Relax now, I'm not going to stay long just stop now" he says with a panic in his voice
I held onto his shirt then the door opened. Ian rushed to me.
'You okay? Do you feel anything? Please talk to me" he says
'I'm----I'm fine. I just need to sleep" I say
'Okay, go on." He says kissing my temples and laying me down gently, as I close my eyes. But not fully asleep, I could hear them talking.
Ian took a deep breath as he tucks me in.
'Look, Sebastian. I don't want you to come here and give her stress. We're trying to make her live long, please. I beg you don't do this"
'I'm not. I wanted to see her. I missed her. I love her. That's why I'm here. Give me a chance, let me be her will to live long. I'm begging you to let me stay. I won't hurt her anymore." Sebastian begs him
'Okay" I whisper, I open my eyes and they both looked at me
'Are you sure sweetie?" Mom asks and I nod
'He's now aware anyway" I smile at her and she nods
'Okay then. I'll ask someone to bring me clothes here, so that I won't leave" Sebastian says
'No. You go home every day. You will and never stay here" I say
'Okay. I'll just visit you everyday" he says easily, well he's easy to talk to
I blushed over that, so I looked over at Ian.
'I'm hungry"
Ian patted my head 'What do you want to eat?"
'I want porridge and some fried bananas" I tell him
'Bananas not fried. Because they are bad for you" Ian says and I frowned
'I'll be back. I'll just take mom and dad home and bring you food. Anything else?" Ian asks and I shake my head
'Be good sweetie" Mom says
'Call us if you need anything" Dad says and they all left after giving me kisses.
Now it's me and Sebastian. I never felt this room so small.
'Yes, by the way. Bianca was the one who told me" Sebastian says breaking the silence that was lingering between us
'Oh" was all I managed to say
'Tell me if you're uncomfortable with me being here with you" he says
'It's not that. It's just, what if you lose me? What do you do then?" I ask
'I'm not going to lose you again. We'll fight this together, okay? I love you and I won't let that happen" He says and cupping my face leaving a kiss on my forehead
I chuckled 'You, kissing me right now felt weird. I didn't even agree on getting back with you, how are you so sure that, me and Kyle are not together?"
He stiffened. 'Are you?"
I shake my head 'Like I said when I got back. I never stopped loving you"
As soon as those words left my mouth, he crashed his lips against mine.
'Oh come on, every time!" I hear Ian says and Sebastian lets me go
I chuckled 'I thought you left?"
'I forgot my phone. I always catch you chewing each other" he says and made me laugh even more
'Have you and your girlfriend kissed?" I asked
'I---" he stopped
'See. It's called kissing. I'm sure you've done more than that" I say
'Hey!" he shouts 'For your information, we didn't do it yet. She just said yes to me last week, so no" he says
'Tell me more when you get back. I'm really hungry" I say and nods, and no choice but to leave
'Hey baby, is it okay if I sleep for a while and wake me up when the food is here?" I say fixing my pillows on my sides
'Baby" he repeats
'Huh?" I say looking at him
'I like that" he says
I smiled 'I like that too"
He removes my pillow 'Hey!" I say and pouted
He chuckled 'Let me be your pillow"
I nod like a kid and he lays down first and I snuggled up to his chest. Not long after I fell asleep, and the best I ever had since I was first brought here.
