her.”
Blaise glanced at Harley and smiled. “I do.”
“All right then,” his dad said with a nod. “Let’s do this before Caleb arrives.”
“One other thing,” Taylor replied. “I’ll be here when my cousin arrives. I’m not going to allow him to give you another injection. To avoid him becoming suspicious, you and I are going to have a pretend argument in front of him about it, Dad. But the outcome will be I’ll win. Harley should have the results at the end of the day.” Taylor looked at her. “Correct?”
Harley stepped closer to the bed. “Yes. And they’ll be for my eyes only. I don’t know why you need the secrecy, but I will abide by it. As soon as I draw the blood, I’ll head for the lab and then get the tests going while I work on other ones. I’ll bring the findings here at the end of my shift.”
His dad gave another short nod and tugged up the sleeve of his pajama shirt. Harley knelt on the floor, then took out the supplies she needed to draw the blood from the small bag she carried. Blaise watched her set to work, her movements efficient and fast. It was all done in less than a minute.
She stood, placed the glass vials of blood, along with the items she used, back into the bag and smiled. “All done. I’d better go.”
“I’ll walk you out,” Blaise said.
His mother stopped them before they could leave. “Harley, plan to stay for dinner.”
“I will,” she replied. “I look forward to it. Thanks.”
Blaise and Harley left the others in the master bedroom and headed down to the main level. At the door, Harley picked up her backpack, which she’d brought down earlier, and slung it over her shoulder. She turned to face him and went on tiptoe to kiss him. He resisted yanking her close and kissing her breathless.
“I’m going to miss you while you’re at work,” he said once he released her mouth.
“And I you.” She smiled. “But I’ll be back. At the rate I’m going, I’ll be living here soon.”
“You’re more than welcome to share my room with me.”
“You’d better watch it. I might take you up on that offer, especially since this place comes with a personal chef.”
He pretended to look hurt. “You wound me. That’s the only thing that would make you want to move in?”
“Okay, not the only thing. I’d have to say getting you comes in at a close second.”
Blaise turned Harley around and smacked her on the ass. “Get out of here before I take you back upstairs to show you why I should be number one.”
She laughed. “See you later. If I have time, I’ll try to text you.”
Blaise closed the door behind Harley after she walked outside. He then headed back upstairs to his room to wait for Caleb to arrive. He didn’t think he wanted to miss out on seeing his dad’s and Taylor’s acting skills. Though pretending to argue wouldn’t be very hard for them since they tended to do that frequently anyway.
It wasn’t very long before Blaise heard the sound of Caleb’s footsteps coming down the hallway toward the master bedroom. Blaise opened his door and poked his head out to see his cousin disappearing through the open double doors at the end of the hall. It was showtime.
Blaise left his bedroom and headed for his parents’. By the time he’d reached it, Taylor and their father were already starting the “argument”. Blaise stood at the doorway and watched them put on a good show for Caleb’s benefit.
His dad appeared to take Caleb’s side when Caleb strongly urged Taylor to change his mind about the injection. His cousin tried to reassure Taylor by stating the new side effects from the medication weren’t going to do any harm, and that he’d expected them to happen. Blaise didn’t let it show on the outside, but on the inside he was seething. Plus, more warning bells were going off inside his head. What kind of doctor would use a medication knowing his patient would go through such extreme side effects? Not a good one, in Blaise’s
