Capítulo 223: It's You I Care About

(SASHA)

The next time that I wake up, it feels like much less of an effort. Unlike the usual when someone could be shining a light into my eyes, I'm staring at Tyler's pretty face. I smile, and wince when my lips crack. Tyler disappears for a while and when he comes back, he smears something on my lips.

"Keep still," he whispers when I try to turn my face away. "This is for your own good."

"I doubt that." I say hoarsely, but I let him do his thing. "Thirsty."

He lets me have a few more measly sips of water. I watch him while I suck on the straw. If I felt a little better, I'd make some joke about preferring to suck him rather than water. But my head is still fuzzy and every part of my body hurts. Then our previous conversation comes back to me.

"You said…Marco?

He sighs. "Marco is in town, but he went to check on some business at the moment. He was so worked up about what happened back then  and how all this happened.
