Keep Your Fingers Crossed Chapter 12

~012.00~

I wake up with a view of bare feet.  I moan slightly, and roll onto my back.

Kimberly looms over.  "Gave me quite a scare there, buddy."

I gasp, and her hands seize my shoulders before I scramble away.  She pins me down with her knees.

"Look you.  I'm gettin' tired of waitin' on you.  I'm startin' to get annoyed that you just won't drop dead!"

Her scent inches up my nose.

"I just want you to join me, Davey..." she cooes, twisting my hair around her fingers.  "Just forever..." she giggles.

I look around for a moment seeing that I'm in the living room.  There's a note next to my face:

 

"David,

Your father and I went to the hospital.  We took Cassandra, and notified her mother.  She was having an asthma attack...You just fainted was all.  You'll be fine.

--Jen."

 

Kimberly giggles again.  "Maybe," her fingers curl around my neck, "you can join me right here, right now..."

A loud ringing in my ears erupt.
