Amara’s POV
……
I turn off the water, before sliding open the shower curtain. As I get out of the tub, I let out a loud sigh. I wasn’t planning on taking another shower, but I just needed time to think and hot water always calms me down. Looking down at my pajama shorts and tank top. I think about weather or not to put them back on.
They are technically still clean. All I did was sit in a sand box that is basically new. Rex got the sand box for Sadie a couple of days ago. Although it would be nice to mess with Dimitri a little bit. Looking to my left I see Dimitri grey colored shirt laying on top of the counter.
It gives me an idea.
Grabbing my towel off of the counter. I quickly dry off before tossing the towel into the floor. I walk over to Dimitri side of the bathroom.
He had placed his shirt here last night. I am assuming he was going to wear it today, but he never did put it on after his shower this morning.
Instead he chose to wear a loose button up shirt.
Picking up the grey shirt from the counter. I slip it on. It baggy and huge on me. The end of shirt stopped at my mid-thigh. I smile at myself as I stare into the mirror.
Let see if I can get him to change his mind using sex as a weapon. I walk back over to my side of the bathroom and grab my hair brush. I quickly brush my hair, before walking out of the bathroom. I make eye contact with Dimitri who is still sitting on the edge of the bed. I notice he is staring right back at me. I watch his eyes go from looking at my face to staring at my thighs.
I smirk but quickly cover it up with me rolling my eyes at him. I walk over to my side of the bed, before climbing on and getting comfortable. I let a loud huff as I lean my back against the headboard.
He is such a big jerk! But I am going to change his mind one way or another.
I pick up the remote that I left on the nightstand. I click on the next episode so I don’t have to watch the credits.
Hearing Dimitri phone vibrate I stare at his back. My eyes wondering to the burn scar on his right arm. It has been four weeks since the accident. He has been moving and lifting things like he use too. I know he has still be in pain, but I don’t think has been taking pain medication for it.
I feel bad everytime I see his burn scars. Although it doesn’t seem to bother Sadie anymore. She would cry everytime she saw his burns. A week ago Dimitri got tired of hearing her cry. So, he put her in his lap and let her touch the burn that goes up his right arm.
She sat in his lap poking and rubbing her little hands all his burned skin. Everytime she poked at him. She would look up at Dimitri face for any signs of him being in pain. Once she realizes he was fine. She just sat happily in his lap. She was stuck to him like glue for the next few days.
“Who are you texting?” I ask hearing his phone vibrate again.
” I am texting Gabe. In the middle of Sadie temper tantrum. She slammed her head into the sliding glass door.” He tells me.
That doesn’t surprise me. She been doing that a lot lately. When she doesn’t get her way. We should probably have a talk with her about that.
” Was she bleeding?” I question him.
” No, but she did slam her head against it pretty hard. I just want to make sure that our daughter is okay.” He tells me.
I watch him get off the bed and check on Sadie.
” Does your head hurt?” He asked her.
” Shh!” I hear Sadie say back.
I hold back a giggle and press pause on the tv.
” Hey!!” I hear her add.
” I think she is fine. She is just wanting to watch tv.” I tell him.
” Too bad.” Dimitri says as he leans down and picks Sadie up out of her play pin.
Sadie whines in Dimitri arms as he sits back down on the edge of the bed. I watch Dimitri gently hold Sadie head still as he examines her forehead.
I watch sadie whines and tries to push away. “Noooo!” She tells him.
” I think her head is a little sore. She probably bruised it.” I say watching him run his index finger across her forehead.
” She is getting a little bump.” He tells me in a worried tone.
” That is what happens when someone hits their head against something.” I reassures him.
He let’s Sadie go and I watch her crawl to me as fast as she can.
I open my arms out to her, but instead of crawling into my lap. She sits next to me and crosses her little arms over her chest.
” Mommy get a hug?” I ask her softly.
” No!” She says pouting her little lips.
” Hurry up and get here! Now!” I hear Dimitri says angrily. Taking my eyes off Sadie. I look up at Dimitri to see that he is yelling into his phone.
” She has a bump on her head! I need you to come look at it!” He snaps again. ” What happened at the warehouse!” He suddenly asked.
I watch his jaw clench and unclench, ” When did that happen!” He asked through gritted teeth. ” Well, is anyone dying? Because if they aren’t. They soon will be!” He adds angrily.
” I don’t give a fuck! You come here now!” He whispers yells into the phone as he makes eye contact with me.
Hearing the tv start playing I look at Sadie. She had the remote in her hands. When she notices me staring at her. She stares back at me innocently, before looking back at the tv.
Guess she wanted to watch the next episode of Law and Order. Lifting my hand up I gently run my index finger across her forehead. She whines at me as she pulls away.
Dimitri is right, she does have a little bump on her forehead. It even kinda looks like it is starting to form a bruise, but she is acting normal.
” No!” Sadie says again as she wiggles away from me.
” Mommy is just checking your boo boo.” I tell her softly.
” No!” She says crawling down by my feet. I watch her turns around long enough to give me a glare, before she turn back around to stare at the tv.
” She acts like you.” Dimitri says to me.
I look up to see him putting his phone on the nightstand. ” She is becoming her own person. I think it is kinda cute, but she is being a little turd.” I tell him. ” So when is Gabe getting here?” I question him.
” He is on his way here.” He says sitting on his side of the bed.
……..
It only takes Gabe twenty minutes to arrive at the cabin. When he knock on the bedroom door. Dimitri just tells him to come inside. I watch the door open and see Gabe with his black bag in his left hand.
” So, how did she get a bump on her head?” He asked confused.
” Sadie, slammed her head into the sliding glass door. I need you to check her forehead. Make sure she didn’t do any damage to herself.” Dimitri explains to him.
” She slammed her head into a sliding glass door?” Gabe repeats in confusion.
” That is what I just said.” Dimitri says taking the remote that was next to Sadie. She doesn’t notice until Dimitri pauses the tv show.
” Hey!” She says turning around and staring at us.
Dimitri gets up from the bed. He walks a few feet picking Sadie up. He sits on the edge of the bed placing Sadie in his lap.
I watch Gabe put his bag down on the floor. He squats and pulls out a small flashlight. He walks over to Dimitri and Sadie. He squats down infront of them.
” I need too look at your pretty eyes okay.” Gabe says softly to her.
Sadie pokes out her bottom lip as she crosses her arms over her chest. ” No!” She tell Gabe.
” Yes, or no tv.” Dimitri tells her.
“No!” She says again.
She really likes the word no. It would seem that she isn’t going to be reasonable with Gabe. So, Dimitri might have too hold her still. While he does all of his little test to make sure her head is okay.
