She didn't release me. She held me tightly like I was going to escape if she didn't hold me tightly.

The pain in my chest started to subside so I relaxed into her hold. She noticed this and held me even tightly

"You know, you don't have to choke me to prove a point" I managed to say.

She realized what she was doing.

"Oh, I'm so sorry" she released me but kept both hands on my shoulders.

I chuckled. There's no escaping Aliyah

"So what now" I said still unsure

She stared at me uncertain. More like calculating what to say, not to push the wrong bottom

"Go out with me tomorrow" she finally said. With her gaze so intense

"I can't" I spoke

She dropped her gaze defeated

I laughed at this

"Not like that silly"

She looked up at me again

I smiled

"I have doctor's appointment tomorrow" I continued

"I'm sure they would give me something that would knock me out for the whole day" I said rolling my eyes. I don't sleep properly anymore

She breath a sigh of relief

"Ok" she smiled

"Can I come over then?"

I smiled

"But I'll be knocked out all day?"

"I know, I just want to hold you" she smiled

"That's so cheesy" I laughed

"Just for you" she smiled too

"Alright then you can come tomorrow"

She grinned widely

"It's a date"

"Yeah, it's a date" I mirrored her smile

Aliyah's POV

I'm freaking out.

I can't say she's my girlfriend yet but I'll make sure of that. I don't know what we are, but I don't care

I want her to be comfortable with me.

I can't believe I get to be with her for a whole day. This is making me freak out

She would be done at the hospital by 10am, so i offered to pick her up.

I checked my time, it was 9:15am

Why's time so slow. I'll head out anyways

I got to the hospital at 9:35 and texted her, that I was waiting outside.

When she was done she came out, joining me.

"Hey" she said settling in

"Hey" I smiled, staring at gorgeous, before my eyes.

Her eyes looked heavy and super sleepy, and her speech was slow

"Your place right?"

She only nodded sleepily.

I chuckled

Why won't i be crazy about this cutee

I got to her place in only 10min. She was barely awake. What did they give her?

Mr and Mrs Davis were both sitting on the couch when I entered.

"Hey" I greeted. Mrs Davis simply smiled at me

Ava only nodded at them and headed up to her room. I basically had to carry her to her room.

"Do you want to sleep in this or should I get you something to wear?"

She didn't respond but simply took off her shoe and her hoody. Leaving her sports bra and sweat pant on

It's hard not to look at her body cause she hardly reveals much. I really don't want to be a perv right now.

I looked away

"I really want to roll my eyes at you right now but I'm so weak. Come hold me" she muttered sleepily getting under the cover

I mirrored her action, climbing in bed immediately. Why was I so scared.

I laid beside her staring at the ceiling

"The definition of cuddling means you've got to hold me Al" she yawned out

"And not from a distance" she dragged

I chuckled moving closer

"Shush. Don't fight it. Sleep" I whispered.

she needs to let the drugs take effect

Two seconds after that she was asleep.

I smiled at the angel before me. This feels like a dream.

I cuddled closely. With the biggest smile

Falling asleep also, enjoying her warmth
