shouldn’t be here in the first place, but alex is the one person he keeps circling back to. the one person he can’t seem to let go of, even when he should. they’re not good together, maybe they never will be. but something in the pit of his heart keeps believing there is hope for them. so he is here, at her bedside in a sterile white room. she’s been out the entire time he’s been here. doesn’t know what happened, other than she had gotten injured on the soccer field. not next of kin, nurses and doctors won’t tell him anything. only reason he is even allowed to sit by her bed is that he lied about being her boyfriend.
@acipaer ⸺ alexis devlin : [ WAIT ] - realizing the receiver is about to leave the room, the sender hastily reaches out and catches their wrist, preventing them from continuing their departure
when she begins to steer in the white sheets, the fear of getting caught here settles in. he is not her boyfriend, and maybe he’ll never be - not if they keep acting like this at least. mostly his fault. ready to bolt out of the room, pushing the chair back when he suddenly feels her hand wrapping around his wrist, preventing him from leaving. ❝ hey… ❞
