Meeting My Abductor Again

"Axel can you please leave. I need a moment to be alone." As I lower myself down on the bed. "Can't I stay by your side?"

"No you can't."

"I promise I won't say a word. I will just watch you sleep." As he pleads.

"I would rather you not." I wasn't going to give in to him.

"Okay. I will be outside if you need anything."

I don't respond, and I watch him leave my room. I was a bit too tired to press him for more information on why he had treated me the way he did.

The door opens. The nurse comes in with my lunch. I am starved and I welcome the warm food with open arms.

"This is delicious" as I smile at her. "I'm glad to see you are eating now." She is sweet. I chat to her and then she has to leave.

"I will come see you later okay."

"Okay. Thank you for the food."

"You are more than welcome dear."

It was so nice to speak to a female companion who wasn't mean and to laugh as if everything was normal. The last time that I had a decent conversation was with Mia.

I knew that I had to speak to Styles eventually. Yet my mind was just blank for the time being. Had he left or where they staring daggers at each other outside?

The door opens once again and this time it's the doctor. "Afternoon." And then he is followed in by Axel and Styles.

"Afternoon Sir." As I respond to him.

"I am going to check your wound and see how you are doing."

"Okay" I turn to Axel and Styles. "Please leave."

They both want to protest but I quickly cut them off. "I am not taking off my shirt in front of you two."

Axel turns to Styles. "You have to leave so the doctor can check her."

"Why do I have to leave?" he retorts

"She is my wife and I have already seen her in every way."

"No, Both of you leave at this very instant" as my voice is now menacingly low. "Fine" as they both look displeased and upset about the situation at hand.

I finally relax when the door closes. "Don't worry they can't peek in here. They won't see a thing."

I smile "Okay" as I feel more reassured.

The doctor comes and sits next to me. "You are awfully young to be married."

My smile disappears "I get it all the time." I answer in a way that shows him that I don't want to talk about it. I can see that he got the hint because he doesn't ask me any further questions.

I take off my shirt and he helps me slowly. I am left with my sports bra and the bandage that is around my shoulders.

He undresses the bandage around my shoulder.

"You are healing quite nicely" as he presses on the wound. It wasn't as painful as before. "You should be set in a day or two."

"Okay" as he rubs some medication on it. Then he rebandages my shoulder.

When he is done, he gets up. "You don't need anything else?"

"No thank you." I sink back on the bed. I am relieved that I am at least healing properly, and they were no complications.

Before I can enjoy my joy. The door opens and Axel and Styles file in again. "Don't you two have jobs?"

Neither one answers as they both scowl at me.

"The doctor told us that you are healing just fine." As Axel is beaming.

"Yes. Can you step out for a moment? I want to speak to Styles please."

I see his jaw clench, but he doesn't protest or say anything as he just walks out.
