finally had a chance to meet a decent guy whom I can’t focus on because I am distracted by the Asshole!” I raged.
My chest was heaving, and I stop pacing long enough to see that Diana looked beyond hurt. She had turned completely white with a wide eyed expression. I saw her eyes roll up in the back of her head and she collapsed on the floor.
“FUCK!” I ran to her and checked her breathing. Dear God, what have I done? “Diana! Diana! HELP! HELP!” I was tapping her face frantically, trying to get her to react.
“What the fuck did you do now Mylie?” the Asshole yelled at me, shoving me on my ass.
Motherfucker! Oh no he didn’t!
“Fuck you, I didn’t do shit. She passed out.”
Rhonda and Malory came rushing in.
“Move Asshole, Malory is a nurse.”
She took over and started to give us directions to each of us. Rhonda called an ambulance, while Malory took care of Diana. I was shaking, pacing once I had regained my feet, and a complete mess until Xavier pulled me into his chest and rubbed my back soothingly. He whispered in my ear saying she would be okay, never leaving my side.
Yes, I could definitely get used to this.
Chapter Seven
Damien
We arrived at the hospital, and I knew I should be concerned about Diana, but I just couldn’t take my eyes off Mylie. The burning rage I felt wasn’t going to go away, at least not given the current situation. It sure as hell didn’t help matters that Mylie was holding onto the Thor wannabe, which just irritated the shit out of me.
He was soothing her while whispering in her ear in a calm, gentle voice, and she was eating it up. How did this get so fucked up? I wanted her to be happy. I had already come to the conclusion that I could never give her that, so why am I fighting so hard to spend time with her?
“Mylie, what happened?” a masculine voiced said out of nowhere.
A tall man, about my height, which was six foot two, came into the hospital with two football player sized men in suits. He looked disheveled from stress. He wore a neatly pressed navy suit coat with a striped baby blue button down shirt that was paired with faded blue jeans and brown cowboy boots. He held his ivory cowboy hat in his large hand while his green eyes searched the room for answers.
It was rapidly becoming apparent why he was here and how he felt. He was evidently very much in love with Diana. I watched as Xavier gave Mylie his leather coat and draped it over her slender shoulders. She smiled warmly at him, and I could see admiration her eyes. It wouldn’t be long before she fell in love with him. Then hunger she had for me would fade away, and I would be left with nothing more than the memory of the only woman I ever really wanted. She spoke quietly to the man who had arrived, and he strode across the sterile hospital. I needed to go. I got up, not saying a word, and went through the electric doors, walking towards my car.
“Wait up!” I heard someone yell out.
I turned around to find Mylie running after me in her red stilettos. She still had on the leather jacket and had slipped her arms into the sleeves. I had parked my car as far from the congestion of the hospital as I could. Because of that, I was already in the shadows of an abandoned dead-end street. I waited until we were secluded from prying eyes, and she came to a stop before me. The rapid rise and fall of her chest as she tried to catch her breath sent a stirring to the pit of my stomach.
“Why are you leaving?” she asked breathlessly.
“It isn’t like I am wanted in there,” I answered honestly.
“But Diana will wonder why you’re not there,” she said hesitantly.
“No, she won’t. I think the gentlemen in the boots will keep her fully occupied and taken care of.”
“Oh—well, you still shouldn’t leave. You were there, and she would want to thank you.”
“Thanks aren’t necessary.”
Why was she trying so hard for me to stay?
“Um—I guess, I will see you around then,” she said
