~Daniel’s P.O.V~

The drive took so long.

“Hi, we are here to see Kisses Jackson” I say running to the front desk.

“I’m sorry. She is not allowed to have visitors” The lady says.

‘Excuse me mam, I’m sorry but I am her guardian” My mom says and she nods.

“Room 112 on floor 4” She gives a sympathetic smile and we rush to the elevator.

“It’s taking to long” I say running to the stairs and sprinting faster than I knew possible.

I run to room 112 and brace myself for what was inside.

I open the door to see Kisses laying in a hospital bed connected to tubes, machines and iv’s.

“Daniel” My mom says touching my back.

No matter how much I could have prepared myself, I would never have been ready.

That was my breaking point.

I couldn’t stand the sight of here there. All frail and lifeless.

“Mr. and Mrs. Jackson” The doctors says shaking their hands.

“Oh, um. We aren’t her biological parents” My father says and my mom hits him.

“What, um. What happened?” My mother says and I look at

    “Kisses, you should probably eat” Daniel says, looking at my untouched food. It’s been sitting there for about an hour now. “I’m not hungry Dan” I say shaking my head. That was a mistake. A sharp pain runs from behind my eyes to the back of my head, causing me to place my pounding head in my hands. Hoping to ease the pain. “Kisses? Are you okay? Should I get a doctor?” Daniel says, worry filling his voice. “No, no, I’m fine. My head is just pounding?” I say slowly lifting it up, my eyes still closed. Daniel grabs my hand, tighter than before. My phone beeps and I open my eyes. “Daniel, can you read that for me?” I ask and he nods, picking up my phone. “It’s Grace. She wants to know if you can face time” Daniel says and I nod. “Yeah, call her and you can talk to her. I have to use the restroom” I say, trying to sit up. I hiss, the pain unbearable and causing me to get lightheaded. “Hold on, let me help you. I should probably call a nurse for this” He says. At that time a nurs

    ~Kisses P.O.V~ I woke up, still holding Daniel’s hand. Butterflies run through my body. “Kisses, you’re up? Has he been here all night?” The doctor says and I hesitantly answer. “Yes, I’m sorry. It wont happen again” I say and he nods. “Okay. How are you feeling?” He says looking at my chart. “My side really hurts and I have an off and on headache. But other than that, pretty good” I say and he nods. “Yeah, that’s going to be like that for some time. We can give you some pain killers but that’s needs approval from your parents since its very strong” He says and I nod. “Yeah, it’s okay. I don’t need anything” I say and he nods. “Okay, let me or your nurse know if you need anything” He says and I nod, thanking him. Daniel stirs, grunting. “Hey Dan” I say as his eyes open. “Hey, how’d you sleep?” He asks, stretching his neck. “Pretty good the second time” I say laughing. “Did the doctor come in?” He asks, standing up, stretching. “Yeah, he just checked on me and told me that

    ~Kisses P.O.V~ Brooks just texted Kylie that they are here. I just told the girls about Daniel and I and how I really like him. Like a lot. I think I might tell him today. I want to be with him. He makes me feel so safe, even from my parents. That’s something I thought no one could ever do. He's helped me through so much and I don't know how I could ever repay him. Daniel and Brooks walk in, Brooks smiles at me and then walks over to Kylie. Daniel comes to me of course. "Dan, you did ama-" I say but get cut off my him grabbing my face gently, placing his lips on top of mine. Fireworks go off in my stomach. The kiss lasts a couple seconds until Daniel pulls away, leaning his forehead on mine. "I love you, Kisses" He whispers, his eyes closed. "I-I love you too Daniel" I say, his eyes open and smile spreads across both of our faces. He sits down on the bed next to me, staring at my face. "Will you be my girlfriend?" He breathes out, scared to hear the answer. "Of course" I s

    ‘Everything seems to be going smoothly. If it continues like this then we can hopefully get you out of here tomorrow” The doctor says and I nod, smiling. “Thank you so much doctor” I say and he smiles, walking out. “Oh thank god” I say closing my eyes. “I can’t take this tiny little room anymore. I’ve barely moved” I say shifting next to Daniel. “I know Kiss, but you need to rest. Those ribs aren’t going to heal while you overwork yourself” He laughs. “I know. But I’m fine. My ribs just hurt a little. I just need to get out of here” I sigh. It’s just Daniel and I right now. I made Kylie, Brooks and Christine go to the party tonight. I tried to get Daniel to go but he refused, stating that he ‘didn’t want to deal with Samantha’s bullshit’. I’ll admit, it was really funny. Right now we are sitting in my bed, eating frozen yogurt Daniel had gotten. We are watching a movie as well as making small talk “Um, hey. Thank you Dan” I place my spoon down, turning to him. “What for?” He as

    I got discharged earlier today. Right now I am at the Greens. I agreed to stay with them, but the problem is getting some stuff from my house. “I can get your stuff Kiss” Jim says and I shake my head. “No, no its okay. I got it” I say smiling. I’m petrified to walk into that house. Not that I don’t think Daniel will protect me but I don’t want him getting hurt. “I’ll be fine Kiss” Daniel says grabbing my hand. The drive to my house was short, like usual. “Daniel, I think I should just stay at my house. It will work better” I say, panicking. “Kisses, hey. Look at me. You’re fine. You’re going to stay with people who love you. Please, do this for me” He says, staring me into the eyes. “Okay, yeah” I say shaking my head. Still a bad idea. I slowly get out of the car, quietly. The house door is unlocked and my mother and father are passed out on the couch. “Come on, lets try and not wake them” Daniel whispers. Once again panic flashes through my body. They are going to murder

    He could have been safe and away from all this. Instead he’s hurt. “You are so very lucky Kisses” The doctor says, shaking his head. “We will numb the areas and put the stitches in. No school for at least a week, preferably a week and a half” The doctor says and my heart drops. “What? I need to go to school. I need to get into college. Please” I say and he shakes his head. “You can’t go to school with a concussion. No excuses. You’ll do fine, you have very good grades” He says pulling up the blanket. “May I?” He asks and I nod, telling him its okay to lift up the hospital gown. Giving him access to the deep gashes. My phone starts going off, I ignore it. I can’t talk to Grace about this right now. “Daniel, will you bring me the work?” ask and he shakes his head. “You can’t do anything that could confuse you or make you think too much” Daniel says, crossing his arms. “Thanks for helping me out Dan” I say causing Tara to laugh. I feel pressure on my thigh, as the needle closes

    I woke up to complete silence. I grab my phone, relief washing over me when I realize I won’t see those nasty texts again. 10:24 Holy shit I slept late. How is it still so silent? I slowly get up, wincing at my sore thighs. Going down the stairs is going to be some trouble. I’m halfway down the stairs when I hear Daniel. “Yeah man, she’s still sleeping. I’m worried about her” He says causing me to pause. “She’s strong Dan. She’ll push through” Brooks answers. I block out the rest of the private conversation, continuing my way down the stairs. When I finally make it to the kitchen his back is to me. He’s wearing a pair of grey sweatpants and no shirt of course. His back and arm muscles are bulging, making it obvious that he’s tense. I put my finger over my lips at Brooks, sending him the message. He makes some noise to block out mine, as I walk over to him. “Calm down hun” I say, hugging Daniel from the back. He melts into my hug, automatically. “What’s wrong?” I whisper, cau

    ~Daniel’s P.O.V~ Samantha isn’t actually having a party. I just wanted to do something special for Kisses. I got Brooks and Kylie in on the idea and they helped me out with it. It worked perfectly. We are currently on our way to the jewelry store. I want to pick something out for Kisses. Something to remind her that I’m always here. The windows are down, California’s brisk, 4pm air flowing through the car. I lean my head back, hoping that Kisses isn’t in any pain. I wish I could take it from her. She doesn’t deserve this. “Dan, man. We are here” Brooks says, snapping in my face. “Sorry” I mumble getting out of his Jeep. We walk in, greeting the workers. Immediately Brooks makes his way over to the rings. “This is what I had in mind to get for Kylie” He says pointing to a ring. It is silver with a small heart diamond on the center. A couple diamonds are lining half the band. It’s beautiful. “A promise ring?” I mumble, scanning through the many engagement rings. “Yeah, it caught

    One month after the weeding I drew in a long, slow breath to calm my nervous excitement as I lit the candle atop the chocolate cupcake I had secretly bought. I had made arrangements for it to be delivered while we were out sightseeing. Never in my wildest dreams had I ever imagined I would be in Maldives, let alone be enjoying my honeymoon there. Daniel and I had said our vows on the beach just days ago, surrounded by our friends. Now, we were alone, just him and I to start our new life as husband and wife. He was my husband. Just the thought sent butterflies into flight in my stomach. We were married. He was mine forever. I closed my eyes as his vows whispered into my ears in his delicious British accent. He had stared at me with those gorgeous green eyes and declared his never-ending love for me. Somehow, I had managed to stay standing while I melted inside. I had opted out of a big wedding dress. Instead, I wore a knee-length white dress. It was sleeveless and cinched at the w

    A year has passed by as I forged forward with a life I had once only dreamt about with Daniel. I came home from working at the hospital on a random weekday and opened the house door. I stepped inside and immediately noticed how eerily quiet the house was. "Daniel?" I called out as I took a step forward. He was supposed to be off today. My stomach dropped as I wondered if he had been called in. "Daniel?" I took another step forward when something crunched beneath my foot. I lowered my eyes to the floor and looked quizzically at the rose beneath my shoe. I slowly bent down and picked it up. I inspected the red rose in my hand, wondering what on earth it was doing there, as my eyes gazed across the floor of the condo. My breath caught as my heart beat rapidly as I stared at the trail of red roses laid out before me. I trembled with an excited anticipation as I began to follow the trail, picking them up as I walked. I followed their path to the back patio door. I slid the door open and

The groom, the biggest corporate honcho in all of North Carolina and the bride, a well established doctor and socialite. All the big names in both the industries had arrived from all over the world to witness their union. Back in his hotel suite, Daniel was fidgeting with his cufflinks in anticipation and nervousness. Today was the day the love of his life would become his, truly. ****************** Kisses Pov When the veil was finally placed over my face, the back of it pinned to my hair with a crystal hair pin I let out a breathe I had been holding in for quite some time.

    ~Daniel’s P.O.V~ Kisses leaves for school in a couple of days and to say I’m devastated would be an understatement. She hasn’t left my house unless it was for work or with me. I want to do something special for her today. I’m going to invite everyone over as a last little party to end the summer and get her a couple of things. I just finished my workout, Kisses is still passed out in bed. I get a couple of things together in the kitchen and prepare a small breakfast for her. She hasn’t been sleeping great. I’ve tried to talk to her about it but she just denies it. I know that she’s been having her night terrors. I think it’s stress-induced. I cut up some fruit and made a little platter, mixing some pancake batter together. I drop a couple of chocolate chips in them and let them cook. Once the food is all done I brew a cup of coffee and bring the food upstairs. Much to my surprise, Kisses is rubbing her eyes, the comforter covering her body. “Good morning, baby” I kiss her foreh

    Last night was eventful if you know what I mean. Daniel has been a bit out of hand lately because I’m leaving for school soon. Speaking of school, I still haven’t packed yet. I don’t want to pack yet. I’m excited about school but not the location. It’s so far from Daniel. I grab my phone, checking the time to see that I have to get ready for work. I’m only working half a shift today, maybe then I’ll have time to pack. I slowly get out of bed, careful not to wake Daniel up. I ruffle through my bag, wanting to put some pants on. “Mm, I can’t wait to wake up to this every morning one day” A raspy voice comes from behind me. “Oh shush” I laugh, shaking my head. “It’s actually been a sort of dream I’ve had since I was little. My wife and I cooking breakfast in the morning. Me in a pair of sweatpants, you in my oversized t-shirt with a cute messy bun and no makeup” He smiles, his eyes tired. “Go back to bed” I shake my head, walking into his bathroom to change and get ready.

    Today was the worst. Daniel had practice all day and I had to work all day. We were both so busy and I can’t even see him tonight. My phone sounds telling me I have a new text. Daniel: Baby Me: Daniel. Hey, what’s up? Daniel: I love you so f?cking much Me: I love you too hun. Is everything okay? Daniel: Nope Me: What’s going on? Daniel: Gotta go. Kisses I stare at my phone, confusion covering my face. I quickly dial Daniel’s number. It goes straight to voicemail. “Cody, I’m going to Daniel” I grab my keys, water, wallet, and phone charger and rush out the door. On my way I call Kylie, her voicemail greeting me. I get even more worried. Kylie always answers everyone right away. I hesitate to go faster than the speed limit, images of what happened last time flash through my brain. I ignore them, seeing the huge hill that leads to Daniel’s house. Soon enough I pull up to the house, rushing out to see a single car in the driveway. The house is silent except for the silent h
