Living the Dream

Every Word

*Krystal’s POV*

“I was conscious when you- uh...” I didn’t know how to word it. “When you spoke to me...”

“Oh.” He looked down at his lap. “You were?”

“Never mind. It’s too good to be true anyway.”

“What? No- It’s... I meant everything I said!” He brought his eyes up to mine and he looked slightly offended.

"You meant every word?" I asked.

"Every word, Krystal." he nodded slowly. Stupidly, I felt a shiver run down my spine when he said my name.

"So you meant it when you said…" I trailed off, hoping that he would pick up on the words that I didn't want to say. He didn't, and I felt myself getting flustered. I couldn’t look at him anymore. In the end, I worded my question differently, but the meaning, and the desperation was still there. "What did the kiss mean?"

He didn't reply to my question straight away. He just moaned quietly, so quietly I couldn't be sure that the noise was even was him.

"It meant nothing at all..." I whispered, realising. "You don't really care." Pain hit me worse than anything I have been through the past 9 weeks, and I felt tears flood down my cheeks again. This was so embarrassing; I didn't know why I'd expected anything different from him.

"What?" Ashley looked at me, his eyes wide. His hands came up to lift my chin up to look at him. "You think that I don't care for you?"

"It would make sense..." I mumbled.

"Never think like that, Krystal!" he snapped, "You're so much better than me, in so many ways. I feel for you more than you can ever grasp...” For that moment I had a little hope. But it was false. He continued. “But I'm not right for you. The guys have made that clear. I'll just wind up hurting you. It's one thing for me to be so involved, but it’s another thing completely if you feel the same way. I don't want you to feel that way Krystal, it's not good for you... I’m not good for you. I'll hurt you," he explained in a voice barely above a whisper.

"But it's too late Ash." I whispered back. "I love you, Ashley. And I don't care about what the others think. I don’t care what your past reputation is. I don’t care about what the fans will think. I don’t care about anything right now. I only care about you."

*Ashley’s POV*

She had said that she loved me, that she cared for me, but she wasn't sure that I felt the same way. How could she think like that? How could she believe that I didn't care for her so much more than she possibly could vice versa?

She yawned. "I love you, Ash." she whispered.

"I love you more" I whispered back.

"Liar” I laughed at her statement and then she yawned again.

"Maybe you should get some sleep?" I suggested.

"I'm not sleepy" she moaned, but she knew as well as I did that that was a lie.

"Come on you." I shifted as if to get more comfy.

"Don't go!" she panicked, gripping at my shirt.

"I'm not going anywhere" I promised, as went from an upright sitting position to laying down next to her and putting my arm round her.

"What about Dr Brennan? I thought he wanted to talk to us."

"That can wait. Go to sleep darlin." I stroked her hair gently.

"Thank you" Krystal smiled at me, and I smiled back.

“Stop saying thank you every time you snuggle up to me. I enjoy it too.” She smiled and her smile slowly dropped away as she fell asleep almost immediately, her head resting on my chest and I kept my promise, staying by her side all night.
