"Can you please call ivy and my dad again? They're supposed to be here," Cole said, fidgeting with the bedsheet.

Kim heard the sadness in his voice and kissed him lightly. "Alright."

She picked his phone and dialed Ivy. There was no point dialing his father. Patrick had already said he wasn't around, and he'd sounded like he wasn't coming back anytime soon.

Ivy, on the other hand, hadn't answered at all.

As the phone rang in Kim's ear, she forced a smile. "No answer still," she said after a moment.

Cole shook his head. "That's just crazy.

I think

both of

them would be here when I'm leaving."

"I'm sure there's an explanation for it."

He sighed. "I hope."

She rubbed his back gently, and he gave her a faint smile. She smiled back, assessing his face. Despite being a little sunken from the illness, he was still so beautiful.

"What?" he asked, smiling.

Her heart pounded, but she didn't look away.

"Nothing," she said softly. "Just admiring your face. It's pretty."

He flushed and chuckled. "Thank you."

He was the first man she had ever been soft with. The first one she didn't want to manipulate. The first one she regretted using for his money.

For some weird unexplainable reasons, she wanted to stay. To be with him. She had no name for the emotion, but she liked it.

Just as she was about to kiss him again, the door opened and a guard walked in. She straightened up, tucking her hair behind her ears.

“We're all set, sir," the guard said. "Geoffrey is on his way up."

"Alright then. I'll wait for him," Cole said, still slightly flushed.

Kim moved to the bedside table and started arranging Cole's things. Guilt swirled

inside her as she thought of Rosie, but she pushed it away.

She was the stupid one for helping Rosie, and now Ivy was mad at her too.

The door opened and a young man entered. He looked just like Cole, except his hair was brown.
