Meeting My Abductor Again
Chapter 34
I wake up the next day and I feel too well rested. I recall last night and I start to panic a bit. Axel and Styles are here. Oh my soul. I press the button and the nurse comes in. "Morning Talia. You finally awake. Did you sleep well?" I see two body guards by the door before she closes it behind her.
"Morning. Yes, I slept like a baby. I want to shower please." As I stretch.
"I am glad to hear that. Of course. Let me help you." She approaches me. I feel refreshed after the shower and now I could have breakfast. I gobble it down and I lay back down. Now to relax.
I turn my attention to the door when I see it opening. Axel and Styles file in the room. "Morning."
"Did you sleep well?"
"How is your arm?"
They are both asking questions simultaneously and I feel like my head is going to burst. "Styles" they both keep quiet when they hear me speak.
"Yes" as he responds eagerly.
"If you don't mind, I would like to talk to Axel alone. I will talk to you after." Axel looks surprised at my words but then Styles looks very hurt by my words. "Of course. If that's what you want." He turns, and he leaves.
I had known what I wanted to do. That was to set the record straight. I couldn't hide from Axel forever and they were some things that I wanted to know. The room is silent now, I start to feel my hands getting clammy. I was anxious to be left alone with Axel.
I will myself to look at him. This is the first time that I have looked at him properly since I had left with Styles. He looked like he had lines on his face and I noticed the dark circles under his eyes. He matches my gaze and I loom away.
I clear my voice so that I can try speaking. No words come out of my mouth. I pull myself together. "Why are you here?"
He looks at me in disbelief at my question. "Don't you really know why I am here?"
"Then why would I ask."
He takes a deep breath then he starts "I'm here for a lot of reasons. One, I have been looking for you. Two, I have missed you and I couldn't wait to see you again."
"That's a very touching speech I must say. If I didn't know you I would be fooled. Where you actually looking for me? Or was it a matter of finding a possession. Something that belonged to you."
He looks at me for a brief moment. "How can you even say that Talia. Do you know how long I have been looking for you? I even forgot my pride when I asked for help from people I would normally ask."
I turn away. I don't want to lose my calm and emotions. I didn't want to burst into a rage of tears. I had to stay firm.
He carries on speaking. "All I want to do is to get you better and then we can go home and talk properly."
I am shocked. Did he think this would be swept under the rug so easily? That I would simply just walk out of here as if nothing happened.
"I'm not going anywhere with you." As I match his gaze.
"Why?" His voice comes out small. I turn, and I look at him. He seems genuinely hurt. But I will be damned if I fell for those lies.
"I don't want to. I don't know if I can trust you anymore and what your intentions are."
"I just want to get you home safe. London is also worried sick about you."
"Sure, you were worried sick or where you scared that I would snitch on you guys. Don't worry they never even asked about you guys."
"I never said or assumed that you did that Talia."
"You don't have to say it. I know how you guys operate."
"No you don't even have an idea how worried we were about you. I have barely had a decent amount of sleep trying to find you but this seems one sided."
"Morning. Yes, I slept like a baby. I want to shower please." As I stretch.
"I am glad to hear that. Of course. Let me help you." She approaches me. I feel refreshed after the shower and now I could have breakfast. I gobble it down and I lay back down. Now to relax.
