Chapter 42 (part 2)

                                    

                                          
Hey guys, I know it took like a whole week just for me to update. And to be honest, I literally didn't even try to write the chapter till now. Lol
                          
I just came back from the Philippines and I'm back to school. The country I'm in is in a pretty bad governmental state and I often feel insecure to whether there's a bomb on my couch or not.
                          
Anyways, I'm back to my Couch potato days and I'm back to writing. 
                          
I know I totally suck since I only wrote 2 chapters in the past 3 weeks. Lol WTH is wrong with you Alyssa.
                          
Anyways. Let me get on to the chapter cause I'm probably wasting your time by reading this.
                          
-Alyssa the potato.
                          
(I shall all call you little taters now or potato. I have a thing with potatos don't judge me.)

Alyssa's P.O.V
                          
I bit my burger as I spaced out.
                          
So, I had a mild hydrophobia. It didn't come out much a surprise to me. Blythe was helpful enough to help me overcome a little bit of the fear, and as she said, "Little steps Alyssa, just take one step at a time so you won't fall back into the water."
                          
The thought of water right now was cringe worthy. It's cold, it can be warm too but that's not the point. The ocean waves, those little suckers pull you back with them. Damn them waves. I don't know why I was thinking so randomly about the water. But at the moment, they scare me. It's not because of its depth really. Its because of how you get blinded when you are in it. You see nothing but vivid shapes and sizes, its really scary especially when you were in a dirty brown watered bathtub and someone was trying to murder you with it.
                          
"Hey Alyssa, you alright?" Luke shook me out of my daze.
                          
I shook my head a little bit, like trying to shake out the thoughts. I turned to him and nodded.
                          
"Where's Ashton?" I asked him once I realized it was only him and I sitting in the long table in the hospital cafeteria
                          
"He went to take a dump." He shrugged.
                          
I laughed at his unattended joke.
                          
"What's so funny?" He raised his right brow as he took another bite on his sandwich. 
                          
"You could have just said he was going to the bathroom." I rolled my eyes. 
                          
"What's wrong with trying to specify? Isn't that supposed to be a good thing? Cause you know. If I said he went to the bathroom who knows what you could have thought?" He closed his eyes, feeling satisfied with his comeback. 
                          
"I'm not like you mr.dirty minded." I stick my tongue out. 
                          
"Whatever." He laughed. 
                          
I looked back into my burger, I swear I felt my mouth water a little. I stared at it in enthusiasm as I took a bite and moaned in satisfaction. 
                          
"What the hell Alyssa?" Luke looked at me like I grew a second head. 
                          
"What?" I asked. My mouth still full. 
                          
"Why'd you moan like that? People will think we're doing some type of footsie." He scream whispered. 
                          
"What's a footsie?" I asked aloud as I took another bite. 
                          
He groaned as he facepalmed. 
                          
"Nothing." He stuck his tongue out. 
                          
We fell into a comfortable silence once again and I kind of like it, only because I haven't talked to Luke in a long time and I almost forgot how much of a great and outgoing person he was.
