Obstacles

When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.

When I hold you in my arms
I know that it's forever
I just gotta let you know
I never wanna let you go.

Chapter Two:

I woke up with a headache, only to feel bright light glaring down on my face. Suddenly I felt someone taking my hand lying limply on my side and pressing a soft kiss to my palm.

"Hey. I missed you. How are you feeling now?" his voice floated sweetly around me, almost effectively curing my throbbing headache.

I smiled sadly back at him, thinking whether I should tell him about what happened that afternoon. Wait. The time doesn't seem right here. Somehow, I had gone back to this damned thing called reality. Crap.

"Wait, how long I'm out? Where am I?" I questioned, my voice getting more and more frantic by the second.

My tone made him flustered and he rushed to reassure me, his eyes wide and full of fear for me. Although I could sense that he was worried that I banged my head too hard that my sanity broke, I narrowed my eyes at him, giving him the don't-kid-around-me-or-you-die look.

"Oops. Sorry about that. But you gave me a very big scare, what exactly happened at your home to cause you to act like this?" his voice carried a hint of fear.

Before I could reply, he leaned down to press his lips to mine. Right at that moment, I felt so happy. Alive. It provided me temporary freedom from my current problems.

It was worth it, I thought to myself as I closed my eyes and immersed myself in the kiss.

Everything is worth it.
