24 Days

Day(5):
I woke up and checked my email in case Dan and Phil replied, But they haven't, I was a bit disappointed, I didn't get my hopes up though.
I got dressed then Dice called me saying he's coming to pick me up, I waited for him outside till he came and drove to the hospital.
We went to Alexa's room and she was there, She seemed a bit tired but she was happy to see us anyway.
"Hi" I hugged her tight.
"Hey, I missed you both" She faintly said.
"Are you okay?" Dice sat down.
"I'm fine it's just, Nothing" I can tell she was sad.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Nothing. How are you guys? What did you do for the last couple of days?" She smiled.
"I went to Dice's house we watched Sherlock Holmes and that was it" I looked at Dice.
"We also gazed at the stars and held hands" He chuckled.
"Fuck you" I playfully punched his arms.
"Really? Are you like together now?" Alexa asked laughing.
"No" I replied.
"Yes" Dice replied.
"No we are not" I shook my head.
"Yes we are" He nodded.
"I'm going to.." Alexa cut me off "You guys are adorable" She smiled.
I managed to tell her about the last couple of days while Dice went out to get some coffee.
"He really likes you" She whispered.
"We're just friends"
"Okay" She nodded laughing.

It was 7PM already, Alexa went to sleep because she was tired, She told us to leave because we cannot entertain her in her sleep so we left.

"Do you want to go to our special place?" Dice grinned.
"Our?" I chuckled.
"I like your laugh" He stared at me.
"I'd like you not to pretend you like me" I spoke.
"I'm not pretending" He started the engine.
"Hm" I nodded.
He drove to 'Our' Special place, We laid on the car like we did the last time.
"Hey Dice" I said looking at the stars.
"Yeah?"
"You say you like me"
"I do" He smiled.
"What do you like about me?" I asked.
"Everything" He replied.
"Be specific, What do you like?" I demanded.
"Well, I like your hair, I like this shade of black" He replied.
"What shade is it?"
"I don't know, It's pitch black I guess?"
"Yeah. And?"
"I like the color of your eyes, They're an incredible mix of hazel and brown" He grinned.
"Hm. Okay"
"I like the way you talk and how you stutter when you talk to me, It's cute" He giggled.
"I stutter?" I exclaimed.
"Yeah, You do" He replied.
"Okay! What else?" I sighed.
"The way you dress, The way you laugh, When you smile it's like I just saw the world for the very first time, And it's beautiful" He smiled.
I smiled back at him.
"You also have lips like the galaxy's edge" He spoke.
"That's a song, By the Arctic Monkeys" I chuckled.
"There goes one deep sentence" He laughed.
"But seriously, Thank you" I smiled at him.
"For what?"
"For seeing such things in me"
"They're not hard to see as you might think" He grinned.
"What do you like about me Mallory?" He asked, I stared at him.
"Nothing" I giggled staring at him.
"No, Really" He sarcastically frowned.
"I don't know" I sighed.
"Can you be more specific yourself too?"
"Just, You know the way you are yourself, Like you don't give a fuck if anybody thought you're weird" I replied.
"That is true" He grinned.
"And like, Your honesty, Like when you told me about Zoloft and everything, It's just so brave you're not even ashamed of your past"
"It's because I try to make a better future that's what I look forward to"
"I wish I was more like you" I sighed.
"Like me?" He asked.
"Yeah. You're optimistic or some shit" I chuckled.
"Well, I'm some shit but I'm not optimistic, I'm more of a cynical person, To be honest" He looked at the stars.
"You're not cynical, I'm cynical!" I spoke.
"It's just, I don't know, This, Myself you see, Is not my real self" He sighed.
"How?" I asked.
"I curse, A lot, I have a really dark sense of humor and my friends think I'm some kind of an emo because of this fringe" He touched his fringe.
"Does emos even exist anymore? Like emos now are nicer" I chuckled.
"I know" He nodded.
"Are we going to lay here forever?" I asked.
"Well, If that's what you wanted" He smiled.
"No. I gotta go home, It's late and I'm tired" I got up.
"Okay" He got up.
