"She's a good person, she just happens to find herself in that situation. Doc she means a lot to me"
"Do you even know her? Through out the whole yesterday she hasn't taken the mask off and isn't that suspicious?"
"And it's because I made her promise to wear it on our way to the hospital, I am glad she kept her promise"
"You don't even know her, how did you even get close to her"
"I know her, it's just her face I haven't seen and I don't have to see her face to know how amazing she's"
"Have you wondered why she's in mask? What if she's a criminal or something my goodness you're a celebrity and you can't lose your guard like that"
"Trust me she's not harmful, she has brought so much to my life, have you wondered why I don't come here anymore? It's because of her, she's changing me. I have been happy these past days because of her, something my psychologist couldn't even do. Please don't take her away from my side"
"I still think you should involve the police"
"No when I was stabbed, for the first time I saw someone's breathing stop for a moment because of fear of losing me, it was in her eyes. Doc I need her"
"Do you love her? Because you're making no sense to me"
"If this is love then maybe I am"
he said and the doctor left he saw Lena and took her to him
"Don't cry" Aidan said and told her to sit by his side
"I was so scared, don't ever try to do that again, I would rather I die because you saving me and dying will result in me dying so there's no point in doing that" she said and he hugged her, after the hug
"You're so important to me and I can never let anything happen to you" he said
"You're also important to me" she said
He held her face and looked into her eyes and smiled
"Oh Lena what's our relationship, what's our feelings for each other? Do our closeness even makes sense and if it does, does it have a name" he wondered as his lips touched hers in the mask
This time it was no accident and both didn't know what excuse to give but it didn't matter, they
will think about that after the moment ends
He moved away and they were just looking at each other, none of them even bothered to find excuses, he held her hand in his and smiled, sometimes silence is enough, the peaceful environment conveys the deepest emotions
"Are you not going to ask me who that guy was?" She asked
"No. you will tell me when you're ready just like the showing of your face to me" he said and kissed the back of her hand
"When I saw you in that condition, my heart dropped and I realized all over again how important you are to me" she said and he pet the back of her hand and kissed it again
" Aidan!! I want to show you my face so that no matter where you see me you will know it's me and not some stranger, I have my own insecurities and I don't know whether you will like the girl behind the mask or not but I want you to see me" she said and moved her hands towards the mask to take it away, he's heart couldn't stop beating but before she could someone came inside
"Dad? What are you doing here?"
"I called him here" the doctor said and he and Lena left them alone
"I wonder why that doctor called me? You're not dead so why would he? I thought this had to do with some money. Listen refrain from giving my number for such things, goodness I was busy" he said and left
Actually Aidan wasn't really surprised by his attitude because he never cares if there's no money involved
and it did hurt badly every time this happens.
