Addie
I woke up with a huge headache and felt like I was a machine, unable to move.
But I was a machine..well at least I was hooked up to one.
I forced my eyes to open and I saw almost a pitch black room with a window curtain open to the rising sun.
I tried to move my legs but I realized something was on them.
I squinted my eyes to see and I saw a man sleeping on my legs with stacks of papers and envelopes next to him.
I looked around on my body and I realized my torso and was wrapped in bandages. I had an IV in my wrist and one I felt on my ankle.
I felt the memories slowly come back, and so did the dizziness and pain.
I whimpered and laid my head back trying to calm the ringing in my ears and the pounding headache, closing my eyes thinking it will work.
I didn't realize I woke the man up til I felt something warm and soft touch my cheek.
I open my eyes and all I could make out was green eyes and a dark aura.
"Addie, how are you feeling?" The man said, sounding familiar.
"Like shit." I said and the man chuckled.
I heard someone open the door and the man sighed before letting go of my face.
No...please don't let go...
"How is she feeling?" A females voice said.
"Seems like she might have a mild to intense headache." The man said.
"Oh, poor girl. Good thing you found her when you did." Said the woman and I felt someone messing with my IV on my wrist but everything was blurry now.
I felt this new liquid enter my body and soon sleep consumed me.
.....
...
I felt myself come back but I didn't open my eyes. I was tempted to go to sleep til I heard people talking.
"I don't care, I'm not leaving til I know she is okay and safe." A man growled.
"Okay, I get it boss but both the 26 group, and Mercheen group would like to know why you canceled a meeting with them, the 26 even threaten to stop buying from us-." Another man said but was cut off by what sounded like a grunt.
"Tell them I could give less than two fucks, I got a more important matter that has nothing to do with drugs or possible joining of teams." said the man and my memories slowly came back to me, making me realize where I am and who was upset.
I opened my eyes and watched as Julius shoved a guy who looked like Andrew.
"Okay, I let them know the lion found his lioness and she's hurt." the man said and Julius growled before grunting and nodded.
I closed my eyes one more time and this time I woke up to Julius sleeping on the mini couch in the room and saw two men at the door softly talking.
"What are we gonna do? production is so slow its almost stopped, and I'm having to send more men home because we are overloaded with our drugs and weed, and without his signature, we can't drive the trucks." said a man who looked like Cole.
"He's trying but its hard when his girl is literally in a hospital bed and hasn't woken up in three weeks since she passed out." said another man who looked like Bucky.
"But how do we know if she's the one for him?" said Cole.
"We don't but he never left her side once since she has been emitted into the hospital." said Bucky.
Cole nodded and I closed my eyes when I saw them walking over to me.
"You can't deny that he's different around her, even us. I just met her not long ago and I just want to be like an older brother to her, cause I know the moment she wakes up, she's gonna need someone there for her and I just want to be the one there." Bucky said and lightly petted my head. "This poor girl endure so much trauma and abuse from Brice, probably from others as well, and still had the strength to keep kicking everyday...I wish our little sister was the same." Bucky said and I thought I heard this big buff guy, actually sniffle.
"Look she isn't dead, just...missing." Cole said.
I felt my head being kissed.
"I know...but can we just agree to keep this girl safe, since we couldn't keep our sister safe." Bucky said.
I peaked a little and saw Cole nodded and pat Bucky.
poor guys, I didn't even know they were brothers.
"Addie?! did you just speak?" Cole said and I froze a little.
wait, did I just say that out loud?
"Addie, if you are awake please give us a sign." Bucky said.
I felt myself smile at his caring nature and opened my eyes.
"Holy shit!" Cole said and ran out of the room, I guess to get a nurse.
Bucky held my hand and gave me a smile.
I tried to speak but my throat felt dry and on fire a little.
"What is it?" Bucky said and I held my throat.
He nodded, but before he could do anything, Cole rushed in like a bullet with a doctor and nurses.
I was examined for several hours, taken out of the room multiple times and expected Julius to wake up but he didn't.
That's when Bucky explained to me that Julius refused to sleep for almost 94 hours (4 days) and constantly was either working on the couch or sitting next to me and holding my hands. It got to the point where they were afraid he was gonna go crazy if he didn't sleep soon.
I nodded and felt my heart skip a beat.
Julius....cared about me?...he's not faking it?
I shook my head out of it.
No, he's just a playboy and is gonna turn out just like Brice...
..But is he? he did bring me to the hospital, and chose not to leave my side, not to mention his promise...
..
.no, the boys are probably lying, obviously set up by their boss to do this.
I told the boys I was sleepy and I laid back down.
They left and I held myself.
How exactly am I gonna get away from this guy? Should I just get up and sign myself out?...Yes I should.
After thinking of how and what to do after, I got up and quietly tiptoed to the door and saw both Cole and Andrew sitting outside of the door.
I cursed then another thought come to mind and I knew I had to act quickly to do it.
I went by my bed and was gonna push the nurse button but I felt two arms wrap around me and a man place his face in my neck, making me stiffen up.
"Mi amore, what are you doing out of bed?" Said a very sleepy Julius.
I tried to explain myself but no words came out, then I was suddenly picked up bridal style and placed softly in the bed before Julius crawled into the bed and held me close to him.
I was shocked, and I waited for him to ask me to do something for him but he just drifted off to sleep with me close to his chest.
I didn't want to admit it but I felt safe, like nothing was gonna hurt me as long as I stayed in his arms.
I laid my head against his chest and closed my eyes.
I might as well enjoy this right now-.
I felt him kiss my head and held me closer.
"Sleep mi amore." He yawned.
I felt myself smile a little and yawned after a while, before letting sleep consume me.
