Falling in Love-Ch4

I woke the next morning really cold. I opened my eyes and saw an empty bed. “Sidney?” I asked. “Yes.” A young woman said. I guessed it was Claire. I was right. She opened the curtain and walked into my side of the room. “So how are you doing today Kay?” she asked. “Fine, but can you ask the doctor when I can start to walk around. Please.” I said sweetly and innocently. “No, you can ask him yourself. Doctor?” Claire asked. “Yes.” Dr. Cole answered. “Kay has a question for you.”“OK. I’ll be there in a second let me finish up with Sidney over here.” Dr. Cole said. A couple minutes passed Dr. Cole pushed back the curtain and walked in. “So what did you want to ask me, Kay?” He said as he walked over to my bed. “Um, when can I start walking again?” I said. “Well I guess you could start right about now.” He replied. I sat up when he said that and pulled my legs over to the side of the bed. When my feet touched the floor a chill went up my back. So far nothing bad was happening. I took a couple steps toward Claire ad everything went well. “Um, Claire, I was wondering if you could go to the store and get me some clothes to wear instead of this cover up thing.” I asked politely. Claire looked at the Dr. Cole, he nodded."What would you like me to pick up other than.... under garments?" Claire asked pausing before the words "under garments"."Um, I guess a couple tank tops, T-shirts, a couple pair of jeans, and some pajama pants and a pajama shirt, and some socks and shoes." I answered. At that Claire walked out looking for her purse for some money. Dr. Cole walked out of my side of the room and into Sidney's."Before you go could you like page Claire to get me some clothes to?" Sidney asked. Dr. Cole reached for his pager. Claire came in after a minute."Yes, I thought I was getting Kay clothes." She said confused. “Yes, you are going to do that, but you will also be picking up some undergarments, jeans, shirts, and some pajamas, and socks and shoes for Sidney." He replied. Claire nodded then walked out toward the front of the hospital. Dr. Cole left just as soon as Claire did. Sidney came over to my side of the room. I moved over so Sidney could sit on the bed comfortably."So, when did you go back to your bed?" I asked."When I heard the door open this morning.""So you stayed with me the whole night?""Yes, why are you acting so surprised? You know I love you and would never leave your side unless it was like this morning to like not be found sleeping with you because then Dr. Cole would have probably me sent to another room. And I know you would want that because I make your world go round. Don't I?" He said this with a smile forming on his face."I don't know. You are the one who knows everything so you tell me if you make my world go round." I replied in a sassy tone."OH! I think I do. Do you remember what you told me last night?""Yes." I said looking down."And what was it." He pressed on. Sidney wanted me to say those three little words, but I was so afraid. I knew I said it last night, but I was so tired and I didn't know what I was saying. I really meant it, but that doesn't mean that they can't be afraid to say it again. Can they?"I love you, Sidney." I said. It was barley audible, but I was sure he heard me. Of course he wanted me to say it again saying he couldn't hear it. I could see it in his eyes that he was doing this for my own good not just because he wanted to hear it."I love you, Sidney." I said again in my normal voice. I was no longer afraid of saying those three little words, and I was sure I would say them tonight to Sidney."I know. I love you too, Kay." Sidney replied leaning in. He kissed me hard. Then again and again and again. We were lip/tongue locked for what seemed like an eternity. I pulled back feeling like I was turning purple. I took a deep huge breath and then another. I looked up. Sidney was breathing hard too.".....That was the longest......kiss I've ever had." I said taking a couple breaths in between."I know.” Sidney said still breathing heavy. I scooted over into his arms while he turned on the TV."What do you wanna watch until Claire gets back?" Sidney asked turning towards me."Your lips." I said smiling up at him. He laughed when I said that. He kissed me again, but this time we took breaths during the kisses. We stopped after a while and actually started watching TV. Sidney flipped to the sports channel and hockey was on. The Pittsburgh Penguins were playing against the Detroit Red Wings. They were playing in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania."Ahhh! Oh my gosh, I love hockey!" I half screamed."You do? Well you should know that I should be playing in that game right now." Sidney said happily. My eyes bulged out so far I thought they were going to fall out if I moved them.
"You mean you are the all star hockey player!" I asked excited.
"Yep." He said smiling. We watched the whole game, and the Penguins won 5-0. We both cheered every time the scored, and grabbed each other's hand hard every time the Red Wings got close to scoring. It was around 10:30 at night when Claire walked in with two huge filled to the rim with clothes bags. She came to my side of the bags. Her jaw dropped when she looked up at Sidney and me."OK, I know this looks bad but please don't tell Dr. Cole." Sidney said taking his bag from Claire's left hand."OK." Claire said nodding. She walked over to me putting the bag on the edge of the bed."It's time to go to bed, Sidney and Kay. Once you get dressed in your pajamas please get into YOUR bed and either go strait to bed or watch some TV, but you must be in YOUR bed." Claire said putting emphases on the word "your". She walked out of the room for us to change. I rummaged through the bag searching for the pajamas. I ripped the tags off the black sweat pants, T-shirt, and undergarments and put them on. Once I did that I crawled into my bed happy because I actually had clothes on. I heard Sidney drop his bag on the ground with a thud then his feet walking over to the curtain. He pulled the curtain back and walked over to my bed. I moved over when he scooted in. Our bodies fit perfectly together.
"You know your not suppose to be over here.” I said with a smile on my face. He laughed at that. I turned toward his face then curled into his chest. I could hear Sidney turn on the TV and started watching it for a while. I drifted off to sleep like that, curled in Sidney's arm listening to the hushed TV.
