Our Love Is Strange

Chapter 4 - Getting To Know Him.

When I woke up I panicked about where I was and I remembered. I was at Dr Strange's mansion. I am very forgetful if I had a lot going on in one day but I got up and went into the shower once I found the bathroom. As I got out of the shower someone was starting to open the door so I quickly got to the door and closed it. "Sorry I forgot to knock." The person quickly said. I didn't quite recognise the voice seen as I was still half asleep. So I got dressed and tried to find out if Dr Strange is back. I found him in the kitchen making breakfast. As he noticed me he said with a smile. "Good morning! I hope you slept well. As an apology for not coming back yesterday I made you some breakfast. I hope you like pancakes." I smile and sit down at the table as he brings me my food and sits opposite me. "Thank you." I reply with a smile and I try some and it tasted incredible.

"Woahh this tastes awesome! Was you like a chef or something before you became or sorcerer or have you always been one?" I smile. "Haha no I was a doctor. Best of the business." He smiled before he started getting sad. "Then how did you become a sorcerer? I'm guessing it's because of some trauma so you don't have to answer if you don't want to." I said. "No no it's fine. It still affects me but I don't mind telling you. But are you sure you want to know?" He says with an anxious look on his face. I nod and say "If you are willing to then sure and I'm not going to tell anyone if that's one of your worries."

He smiles with a relieved look and and took a deep breath and said "Well I got into a severe car crash. I was driving to some dinner party or something and one of my colleagues was calling me asking about a patient and he loaded something onto my car screen and I was distracted by it so I must've driven too far into the wrong lane which cause me and my car to roll down a hill. After that it got bad for me. I was angry with how the operation for my hands turned out because I said that I could've done better seen as I woke up to load of steel rods implanted into my hands and then after I got better I flew to Nepal to go try and find a place called Kamar-Taj to try and see if they can make me better. The ancient one allowed me to train and that's how I got my powers. But my hands are still shaking."

He tells me as he lifts one of hands and holds it out in front of me and I noticed that he is still shaking and so I held his hand and turned it over so I could look at his scars that I noticed. "They are some cool battle scars. It's what I say if someone has had an accidents or has done something they shouldn't of." I say as I smile and look up at him. Wait what am I doing? I suddenly blush and get flustered and I let go of his hand. "Sorry I should've asked. My bad." I say feeling really embarrassed as I have some food to calm myself down. "Hey it's okay. It's not like you hurt me or anything. It made me feel better about my hand." He says as I look up at him and he smiles at me. "By the way we can start training today if you want. I'm free until something occurs unexpectedly but for now I am free for the whole day." I nod and try to forget about what happened.

The days went on Doctor Strange started to introduce to me how his power works and he started to train me and from that day on I think I started to fall in love with him but I wasn't going to tell him of course. He's way out of my league I think.
