Chapter Thirteen (Part 1)
I was having this wonderful dream that Seiji and I met last night. I didn't want it to end and I felt like it wasn't because when I woke up, I was looking into the most beautiful, brown eyes I could ever look into.
Wow...his eyes are so beautiful. I never noticed it before but they are. Like a pool of rich chocolate that you wanna drown yourself into...
The pair of eyes narrowed into slits, crinkling up as it did so.
I smiled. Imagine waking up every single day and looking into those eyes~ If this is a dream, I wish it would never end...
It was the dream to top all dreams...
...that is, until the eyes move and the face of its owner flashes across my sight.
NINO???!!!!????
I jerk my head back suddenly and gasp an "Agh!" and then an "OHMYGOD!!", my eyes growing wide. I glance down and instantly remember that I was still wearing my strapless gown from last night. Uso!! I quickly pull up the blankets up to my neck and hide.
Pain crept up into my head. "Ouch~" I moaned as I closed my eyes. It felt like a ton of bricks just landed, one after the other, over my head.
"You alright?" He said softly. "Here. These will help."
"Not so loud!" I cover my ears, his voice ringing like loud chime bells next to me. I open my eyes and find a tray next to my bed. Several glasses were neatly placed next to each other, beside a pitcher of water and..."What is that??" I pointed to the brown goo next to the water as I sat up.
He poured some into a glass and handed it to me. "Ah, some hangover cure. My...um, friend gave it to me. Said it was suppose to help." He patted the tray. "Anyway, I've got some tablets here and a pitcher of water, in case that one doesn't work."
I took a sip from the glass - "What do you mean it won't work??" - and frowned. "Yuck!!" I pushed the glass back towards him. "It tastes terrible!! What did you put in this stuff?? Are you trying to kill me??"
He pouted and crossed his arms over his chest. "Stupid Jun-kun! He said it would work!! I'm gonna kill him later..." He smiled at me, scratching his head. "Ah, sorry! I actually don't drink very often and I don't really know what cures a hangover..."
Aiyoh~ I sighed. "Just give me a glass of water, please." He poured some water over a glass and handed it to me. I took a small gulp before setting the glass down again.
I wipe my lips with the back of my hand. "What are you doing here anyway??" But before he could answer, I held up a finger. "Hold that thought." I shoved the blankets back and jumped out of bed. I pulled the door open and ran down the hall towards the bathroom. I slapped it open, knelt down and quickly stuck my head into the toilet bowl. My throat gave in and coughed up more liquid mass, trying to push out the alcohol from my body. Every cough sent shivers down my spine, leaving my face warm and my eyes glazed.
I felt a pair of hands pull back my hair off my face while I continued to cough. After several moments of coughing, the shudders finally stopped, making me dizzy and out of breath. I move away and lean back against the bathtub next to the toilet bowl, wiping my drool-covered mouth. As I sat there, Nino let go of my hair and sat down beside me.
"Feeling better?" He asked.
I nodded. "Thanks." I throatily whispered.
He gave me a thumbs-up. "No problem."
