Chapter 31
When I arrived at the hospital, I went to work right away. A 6-year-old boy had a bad fall on their stairs, had a few fractures. But the most threatening is the bump he got on the head. He went to surgery not so long ago and was put in an induced coma to help the brain heal. We will be observing for 24 hours at least. Hopefully, he'll wake up.
After talking to the family and putting the parents at ease, I went to the Doctor's lounge to rest for a while. I think this will be along night. I was really hoping to be there when Bella comes back from her date, but I have to be a doctor, and this kid needs me.
I have to put my personal need aside in the meantime. I will have plenty of time to talk to Bella. Speaking of Bella, it's 10:30 already. I should give her a call. Make sure she got home safely for my peace of mind. I grabbed my phone and dialed her number.
She picked up on the first ring, sounding breathless or in panic? She sounds breathless and relieved at the same time.
I got worried. Maybe something happened. I asked if she's home already because if she's not, I'm flying there and bring her home.
She said they are parked outside her house, but the sound of her voice is still weird. She stopped talking, and I heard her addressed the scumbag. " Tom, can you please open the door?" She seemed stressed. Did that guy do something to her? I will kick his ass if he ever tries anything with my girl.
I heard her thanked Mr. Peters and said goodnight, sounding relieved. Then I heard the car leaving, and I gave out a sigh of relief.
" Bella, are you okay, babe? What's going on?" I asked her, and I'm really getting worried now.
She said she's okay but said something that made me feel uneasy, and I got heated when I heard that.
" What do you mean weird? Explain, Bella!" I shouted a little, trying to control my anger. If that bastard made a pass at my girl, I would really lose it.
She changed the topic right away. She is lying to me. I can sense it. She's trying to cover whatever that ape did to her.
I begged her to tell me what really happened and why she said that Tom was acting weird. But she refuses to answer, so I ordered her to go inside the house. I know she's still outside in the cold, and it's getting late.
She teased me for being bossy and that I sounded like her father when I order her around. I heard her door opened, so I'm sure she went inside the house.
Then I heard her ask me why I am calling and if everything is alright with me. I told her I called to check on her and that if she's home safely.
" Checking? Or you ordering me to come home? I am a grown woman now, Liam. You don't have to worry about me and scare every guy that comes near me like before." She said, chuckling a little.
I answered her truthfully that I am more worried now than before. I told her she's more gorgeous now and that men with bad intentions will flock to her and might take advantage of her. What? It's half true, alright? I do want her safe, and I don't want her dating another guy other than me.
She called me crazy for worrying about her and that she has been taking care of herself for the past six years. She answered me with sadness in her voice, and I felt it right through the heart.
I told her I know that she's a strong woman and that she can take care of herself, but she can't blame me for worrying still. Then I whispered huskily that she looked beautiful tonight. I imagine her in my head when I saw her tonight. I almost had a heart attack. I wanted to drag her back to her room and hide her there.
She suddenly kept quiet. I thought she fell asleep. I asked if she's still there, and I am not talking to a sleeping woman.
" Yeah, I'm still here." She squeaked, and I smiled. I guess she's as affected as I am. " Are you staying at the hospital tonight?" She asked me.
I told her I might stay the night and told her about my patient. I narrated what happened to the little boy and that I might have to monitor his progress. I told her I am in the Doctor's lounge trying to get some rest. Suddenly I felt drained and bone-tired weary.
" Oh, that's too bad. I feel bad for the parents. I hope he'll be okay. You should get some rest, Liam. You sound stored and sleepy. I'll check on Sophie and get some sleep myself after." I heard her went out of her room.
I told her I would after we're done talking. I also told her to call me if Sophie's fever came back. She teased me and laughed at my seriousness. I just don't want her to worry about her daughter, and I don't want her to feel sad anymore.
" I'm serious, woman. Don't make fun of me." I scolded her, and I heard her chuckle.
She apologized and told me not to worry because Sophie's fever is gone and she's sleeping soundly. The minx even called me a mother hen. Then she whispered in a sexy voice that she's going to bed and that she's sleepy, and I felt it down to my groin. She sounded so sexy. I feel so hot right now.
" Okay, goodnight, baby, sleep tight," I whispered huskily. This girl is going to be my downfall. I am like a lovesick puppy in her hands.
" You really enjoyed calling me that, do you?" She teased me again about the endearments I kept throwing at her. I am just making her feel comfortable before I go for a kill.
I answered seriously that she has to get used to it because she will hear it from me for the rest of her life. She was rendered speechless again. I heard her sigh. I wish I were there to see her blushing face.
She whispered goodnight and said that she'll see me tomorrow, sounding emotional, how I wanted to hold her right now and kiss those worries away.
" Goodnight, babe. Don't miss me too much." I chuckled and ended the call. I stared at the ceiling, thinking about Bella. She consumes me, she can direct my moods, and I can't even do anything about it.
I decided to tease her one more time before letting her go to sleep. I can't help it. She's so gullible.
" What are you wearing right now, babe?" I texted her, smiling. I am 100 and 1 % sure she's blushing from head to toe right now.
" Nothing, just the smile you gave me :)" Oh f**k! She did not! My Bella is flirting back. God, the vision I see now doesn't help at all!
I was trembling when I replied to her text. I told her not to tease me and play with my mind. I texted her back, groaning. She got me! That vixen!
She answered that I started it, and she's right. She gave me a dose of my own medicine. I clutched my phone to my heart when she added she wished I was there with her. God, How I wish I am next to her right now.
I texted her goodnight and ask her to dream of me because I will definitely dream of her. I wanted to stop the conversation before it got out of hand, and I'll be driving to her house like a lunatic.
" Goodnight, Liam. See you in my dreams, babe." She texted back, and I smiled and reached for my phone. What I saw made me sit up straight and scrambled to my feet. I need to see her! I grabbed my keys and went dashing out of the Doctor's lounge to my car. I texted her back.
" I'm coming over right now!"
