94 Bad Place

KIM

I hear Nick telling me how beautiful I am and suddenly I am not so sure that I want Nick to stay in bed. I would rather have him by my side because he is truly my pillar of strength. He makes me feel good about myself inside and out. Angie on the other hand does exactly the opposite. I wish you could come with me but I saw that black ribs and I know they need rest.

"I love you, Nick"

Then I stand up and make my way to the door. Then he says to me.

"I love you, Kim"

I turn to look at him and I blow him a kiss. He gives me that cocky smile of his and then I leave the room. It feels like my heart is staying behind and suddenly I start to feel nervous. It is strange how I'm not nervous on a stranded island or base camp somewhere in a foreign country.

But bring me back home and put Angie before me and I crumble. I start to wonder what is a stupid suggestion I made to Nick and how much I want him to be next to me.
