Mia’s POV
Here I am standing waiting for the doctor to say something as he checked. “Well he’s statics are normal. Everything is normal. Just make sure he takes good rest. No stress for the time being. Follow the medication that I have prescribed.” he stated as he got his medical kit.
“You sure doc? He’s completely fine right?” I asked worried. Both the doc and Damien chuckled. “Im sure Mrs Mariano.” he assured me. I nodded my head at him.
“I’ll show him out.” Marry suggested. With her left, it was left with Albert, my mum, my dad and my sister.
Albert went and took a sit next to Damien. “You gave all of us heart attack, my son.” he said as he pat his shoulder. Damien chuckled at that.
“I’m a Mariano. We are tough.” he said with a smirk. “That we are son.” he said as he suddenly hugged him. I just admired the moment.
After that my dad, mum and sister went together to tell their well wishes. It was a heart warming scene to see. The four of them came to me to reassure me and left.
Once sending them off I went back to see Damien. He was trying to take water. I quickly rushed to get him water.
“You could have asked me.” I said. “Love, I was just in a coma. Not paralyzed.” he smirked as he drank the water.
“Still…” I dragged. “Well if that’s what you want, then that’s what you’ll have. You will be playing nurse.” he joked. I hit his arm playfully.
He pulled me into a hug. I relaxed into his arms. We both took a deep breathe. I was dreading to ask him the question. But I need to.
“May I ask you something?’ I questioned. “Anything, Love.” he said as he kissed my hair. “What happened that day?” When I asked him this his took a sharp breath.
“I was coming home to surprise you that day. I told you it was gonna take some more time, but I actually finished earlier. I was so damn excited to come and see you, to hold you. So I sped. I didn’t realise about the track and it hit me.” he explained.
I started to tear up. Sensing it, he quickly took my face into his hands. “Why are you crying dear?” he asked with a worried expression.
“This is all my fault. You were in the accident because of me.” I said as I sobbed. His face held a shock expression.
“What! No. This is on me. I was speeding. Its not your fault. Don’t blame it on you. I wanted to rush home to see. I sped. I was reckless. Not you.” he said as he kissed my cheeks.
I nodded my head in understanding. He kissed my forehead, both cheeks, nose eyes. He stared deeply into my eyes before slowly leaning in for a kiss.
The kiss sent sparks down my spine. It was slow at first. But soon it was fast paced. His hands travelled from my face to my waist. Within seconds he grabbed my waist and turned me around so that I was laying flat in the bed and he was hovering above me.
He kept kissing when suddenly someone knocked the door. Both Damien and me quickly sat. Both of our face was flushed. I asked the person to come in. Mary came in after that.
“Lunch is ready”. She stated coming in. Once she come in and saw our flushed face, she cleared her throat and left. Both Damien were looking at each other before laughing. We laughed till our face fell off.
I admired him laughing. I missed it so much. “I missed this.” I said softly. He brought our faces close until our head was against each other. “Me too.” he said as he sighed.
We both gathered our self and head down for lunch. I made sure he walked carefully and slowly. “So how is you dance practice going?” he asked suddenly. I stopped abruptly. SHIT!
I totally forgot about it. “What happen?” he asked me. I sighed. “I will tell you in awhile.” I said as we went to our dinning area. I let him take a sit first.
He raised his eyebrow at me. I took in a deep breathe. “So you see how you were in a coma for 1 and half month?” I said hoping he doesn’t get mad. He nodded his head.
“Well I haven’t gone to school during the entire period.” I finished off. “What! Why?” he asked surprised. “Because I wanted to be beside you when you wake up. I was scared if I left you even for a second you might wake up and I wouldn’t be there.” I said as I looked down.
He lifted my chin up. “Thank you so much, love. I love you so much. Thank you for everything.” He said as he smiled at me.
“I love you too.” I said back. He smiled at me brightly as he pulled me in for a kiss. The kiss was short and quick but sweet.
Soon Mary came in with our breakfast. Mary and Damien started talking to each other while I just stared at them.
Once we were done, Damien turn to me. “So how long for your competition?” he asked me. “2 weeks more.” I said back casually.
“That’s such short time.” he said shocked. “You have to go back to school tomorrow.” he stated. “But if I go to school who’s going to take care of you?” I questioned.
“As much as I like being taken care by you, you need to go to school.” he said as if reprimanding a small kid. I just huffed.
He laughed as he hugged me and kissed my forehead. “So will you be going to school tomorrow?’ he asked me. I nodded my head. “That’s my good girl.” he patted my head.
I just stuck my tongue at him. He just chuckled at me. I missed this. The way we were being ridiculously childish with each other.
I was home. He was home. We were each other’s home
