Sora: Sanity

** ** Ever so slowly I walked over to his bed-side. When Kaleb realized that his door was opened he turned to look and saw me. He was sitting up in his bed smiling, but in an astonished way. As I just reached the bed I grabbed his hand and started to cry. Kaleb had a puzzled look on his face.

"I thought you hated me?" Kaleb put his hand over mine.

"No! I never hated you; I just didn't want to accept the truth. You were right all along! I just felt like an abomination." I began to cry like a two-year old in their crib. My eyes were already sore from crying so hard earlier, so this moment was only making things worse. Kaleb looked down at his bed.

"I...you're not entirely wrong for the reason that made you hate me. I had no right in just coming out on such a touchy subject. I know how it feels to go through the crucial moment like that, I was there once." Kaleb was looking back out the window at the moon.

"No don't say that! I've already told you that don't hate you. I just want to be your....friend again." I know that I want to be so much more than friends, but it's too soon for me to ask that question or even bring something like that up. Maybe one day when we're friends again I can ask and/or even tell him how I feel, but for now I will be his closest friend.

"Sora I want you to know that I am sorry for all things I've done to you. I don't want us to be enemies; I want us to be friends."

"We were never enemies Kaleb and you have done nothing wrong to me. It was me who messed up and caused this whole problem."

We were in his room at the hospital together embracing all of our emotions. It was like a pot filled with love, happiness, sadness, anger, and confusion. Kaleb brought my hand to his lips and whispered to me.

"Let's never fight again." I only shook my head with tears sliding of my cheeks like assassins. Just as I was going to ask what happened my Mom entered through the door. We both looked and a new feeling emerged in me and Kaleb. Awkwardness.

"Why do you always run so fast? Don't you know that I'm old?" She looked so tired and her age peered through intensely. She had bags under her eyes with the visible fur, on her body, shining white. As she walked over to a chair next to the bed you could hear her softly moan in pain. When my Mom was comfortable enough to talk she looked over to Kaleb.

"Ah! So you must be Sora's boy friend. You're a real cutie aren't ya'?" My faced glowed bright red and I started to sweat. I slowly looked to my side at Kaleb and saw him laughing. His hand was over his mouth and he tried to hold back his snickers. My Mom looked confused, she must have forgotten that I told her that I like Kaleb but he wasn't my boyfriend.

"What's so funny? Was it something I said?" She was so lost on the whole situation, but just as I thought my life was over Kaleb brought music to my ears.

"No no Ma'am, we're not boyfriends. At least I don't think so." He gave me a shy look that went against his physical structure. I looked deep into his soft purple eyes falling even more in love with him. The sound of my Mom's voice snapped me out of my daze.

"Really? He talked about you so much on the way here that I just figured with him saying that he-" I cut her off right there.

"Mom! That is enough gossip for now!"

"But Sora I was just getting to the best part."

"Yeah, well the best part can stay a secret for now." Kaleb poked into my Mother and I's conversation only to add more red to my cheeks.

"It's okay Ma'am I have a pretty good idea about the juicy secret you're talking about."

All three of us were in his room for another hour or so talking about what happened to him and him telling my mother our _love_story. My Mom bought Kaleb some food and we watched the television for a bit adding more time I had with Kaleb. But as in all things it had to come to an end. The Nurse came into the room telling me and my Mom that we had to leave because visitation hours were over. I gave Kaleb a hug good bye telling him that I'll see him soon. As we were walking out the door someone grabbed me by the hand. I looked around and Kaleb dragged me back into his room. I spun around like a ballerina and my back hit the wall. I was a little friend shocked about what just happened. Thing only got more shocking as he looked me deep into the eyes.

"You can't leave the princess without a kiss." As he finished his sentence we connected lips. As he kissed me it took a second for me to kiss back because I was shocked. But soon I was kissing back and Kaleb could kiss like an angel. My face was heating up and I threw my arms around his neck. Our soon passionate kiss turned into a make out session. He pulled away and scooted me out as fast as he dragged me in. Before he shut the door he managed to slip out three words that I'll never forget.

"I love you."

With that I started to walk out with a smile on face knowing that things can only go up from this point.....right?
