I don't want to be here

I don't want to be here.

It's Tuesday afternoon, and I'm sitting in the same waiting room I've had the displeasure of visiting for the last three weeks. I'm relieved nobody else is in the waiting area as I can battle my building anxiety without distraction. I can feel my pulse quickening while I fret over the pain that is surely in the cards for me today.

I have my earbuds in, and I'm listening to Eminem's "Lose Yourself." It's still one of my go-to songs when I'm about to face something I really don't want to, and I use it as an anthem to push myself through difficult situations like this physical therapy appointment that I have to talk myself into coming to each week.

I close my eyes, rocking my head back and forth to the beat while trying to convince myself I am a badass that can handle anything.

I can do this. I have to do this. Why am I so fucking clumsy?

I firmly press my fingernails into my palms and dig in. It's all part of my ritual to be prepared for what's about to come.

I'm completely drawn into the music, my eyes closed while concentrating on the lyrics. The song's beat builds with the rhythm of my anxious heart, and I quietly recite the chorus. As the words unconsciously escape my mouth, I am suddenly shocked back into reality by the sound of my name.

"Lily, um, Lily!" I open my eyes to see the receptionist smiling at me.

"Oh, oh, I'm sorry!" I laugh, slightly embarrassed, as my eyes fly open and begin to refocus on the room's features.

I startle slightly when I notice a man sitting diagonally across from me that was not there when I had initially closed my eyes. I can't believe I never heard him enter the room!

Sneaky mother fucker, I never even heard him.

My eyes sweep over him quickly, he's certainly handsome, and I notice he is dressed in a comfortable-looking pair of black slacks, with a black silky, long-sleeved v-neck dress shirt that buttons down the front. A black beanie and a facemask cover most of his facial features, but most of all, I notice his catlike eyes are peering at me with a look of amusement.
