   Why do I love you? pt. 12
The next day.....

Cody sat in his history class nervously tapping his pencil against his desk. It was starting to annoy Cati and Lyndsey to the point that they wanted to take the damn thing from him...but this is a school and pencils are kinda, you know, needed.

"Will you flippin stop it? Headache coming on now." Lyndsey exclaimed. Cati gave Lyndsey a 'please don't kill him' look.

"Whatever. A headache is nothing to how nervous I am right now." Cody said, a bit too loudly for the teacher's taste.

"Cody, quit making so much noise and start on that worksheet you've had for fifteen minutes." The teacher scolded and started walking around the room.

"Psst, Cati, I can't focus, what are the answers?" Cody whispered. Cati rolled her eyes.

"No duh. A, A, B, D, C." Cati whispered back. Cody hastily wrote down the answers.

"Thanks." Cody replied. He resumed the pencil tapping. Lyndsey looked like she wanted to stab him with it. Cati glanced at her watch.

"Lynds, please, bear with him for the next 57 seconds." Cati pleaded. "Cause then, he's leaving to get broken up with by his SOS."

--------Meanwhile at the hospital-----

Eric was smiling, which was odd since he was eating hospital pancakes. He was eager for Cody to get here. Finally, everything would be good, maybe even wonderful, depending on how Cody reacted.

Last night, after he'd finished talking to Cody, Eric's parents had stopped in to see if he was alright. After assuring them he was okay, Eric had convinced them he was old enough to stay by himself. So he left alone to have some delightful dreams involving his boyfriend.

And now, he was eating th disgusting pancakes with a delighted smile on his face when Nurse jim walked in. Eric waved at the nurse.

"Hi Eric, you look happy this morning. It must be big, because I ate those pancakes and nearly threw up." Nurse Jim said in greeting. Eric laughed.

"Cody is coming over so we can talk. And, he isn't mad at me for acting like a jerk yesterday!"

------Cody, in the car on his way----

"Now Cody, just remember to be honest, okay?" His mom told him. Cody nodded.

Soon enough, they arrived at the hospital. His mom told him to call and she'd come pick him up. Cody got out of the car feeling like he would rather die than got to Eric's room.

Tears filled his eyes when he entered the elevator. He wiped them away haphazardly.
