Jacob feels bad

Darci walked through the stairs to Jacob's bedroom. She gently pushed the door open and she looked at Jacob sitting up on his bed staring outside the window.

Jacob heard her footsteps, and he looked away from the window staring at Darci approaching him. He noticed the plaster on Darci's arm and he felt quite bad.

"I see you are back."

Darci put on a firm look bowing her head and staring at the floor, "I need you to cooperate with me. I really want you to get better so I can quickly leave your life. Since you don't like me please don't make my work here more extended."

Jacob said softly, "I don't want you to leave my life."

Darci looked away from the floor and looked into his eyes.

"I don't want you to leave just yet. I am sorry I hurt your arm. Can we be friends?"

Darci's lips curved into a smile and she nodded, "alright, friends."

Jacob smiled wildly, "thank you."

Darci moved a few steps towards his bed and stood besides him,

"Okay, you will have to listen to everything I tell you and just trust me got it?" She leaned forth, their cheeks were almost touching.

Jacob nodded, "okay."

Darci covered her nose and waved her hand around her face feeling irritated and she stood properly.

Jacob felt quite confused, "what's wrong?"

"Your mouth, it emits a bad smell."

Jacob felt slightly embarrassed, "I feel quite stressed to wheel myself to the washroom."

"Don't worry, I'll be back."

Jacob stared at Darci walking to the bathroom. She picked up the toothbrush standing in a blue container on the sink. She grabbed the toothpaste and walked out of the room holding a lengthy large bowl.

Darci walked towards Jacob's bed, and she dropped the bowl on the bedside table. Jacob stared at Darci squeezing the toothpaste and the paste dropping on the toothbrush.

Darci sat besides Jacob their arms touched. She sat the lengthy bowl on his stomach and stretched the toothbrush to his mouth.

"Open your mouth."

Jacob slightly opened his mouth, and he felt amused, he giggled, "this is weird, I'm not a kid."

"Yea but since you can't move your arm, I'll treat you like one. So come on, open your mouth."

Jacob unfolded his mouth, and Darci complained, "open wide enough."

He widely opened his mouth and she slid the toothbrush in gently scrubbing his incisors, and she looked into his eyes, and he stared into hers, they had an eye-lock. Darci was lost in his eyes, she paused.

Jacob realized that he was drooling, and he cleared his throat, and Darci jolted. She felt slightly embarrassed, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Jacob chuckled and she could not suppress herself from chuckling too. She finished brushing his teeth, and she stretched a full glass of water to his lips, he took a sip, gurgled his mouth and spat out the water in the bowl.

Darci dropped the bowl on the table and she clasped a towel dabbing his lips gently, and stared into his eyes, and he stared into his hers like someone hypnotized, they did not move for some minutes. Darci's hand slowly dropped down.

Jacob leaned forward stretching his head closer to hers, their face got closer and Jacob bent his head and stretched his lips to hers. Darci realized that their lips were almost touching. She moved her face away from his, and nervously sprang up to her feet. Jacob leaned backwards, and she shyly bowed her head.

"Um, I will go get your food so you can take your pills." She looked into his eyes and quickly looked away from him.

She walked out of the room and gently shut the door. She stood by the door leaning her back against it grinning from ear to ear. An image of Jacob stretching his face to hers, and their lips almost touching, flashed through her mind and she chuckled sillily chewing her nails.
