EMORY'S POV


It's been a few weeks since Ansel had asked me to be his girlfriend. To be honest, I love it. He treats me so well, and is always so gentle yet rough in bed. That was all I ever wished for in a man. I felt special and I was proud to admit it.

He took me out almost everyday or every other day, despite our busy schedules. I know what you're thinking, do you take him out? Yes, and it's a pain because he barley allows me to pay.

Apart from that, we have sex every time I spend the night at his house, though not all the time.

Sometimes, instead of having sex, we would take the time to reassure each other. He created a habit to console me. Ansel communicates with me and expresses his emotions. He makes me feel wanted for reasons other than my physical appearance. In exchange, I guarantee him that I will not be leaving. I'm glad that we do this, it keeps a balanced and healthy relationship.

He's too good for me to let him go.

I love how things are going with the two of us. Honestly, I'm just relieved that I can finally call Ansel my own. I'm as much as his as he is mine.

Ava and Adonis, on the other hand, are moving at a slow pace. They're both working things out, especially because Adonis is afraid of being abandoned. Ava ensures that he is reassured and comforted, and vice versa.

They've gone on several dates and have even kissed. Things are finally looking up for those two, I believe. It's wonderful to see Ava so happy, as if a weight has been removed off her shoulders.

Chloe is doing good, as well. She has chosen to remain loyal to her girlfriend, Claire, who is also her boss. Chloe and Claire, the two C's.

Both Ava and I met her previously, and she's the total opposite of Chloe. No wonder why Chloe is so smitten with her. Claire is very shy and innocent, her vibe screams introvert. Not that I minded, people do say that opposites attract.

Aside from that, except on the weekends, I've been at work everyday of the week. The majority of the time, I requested time off on the weekends. Unless they were short staffed, my employer would always give me time off since she loved me.

It was my lunch break, which meant I could use my phone. I didn't feel like eating lunch because I wasn't hungry. There was this sinking sensation in the pit of my stomach, as if something was wrong. My mind was racing as well, and I simply lost my appetite to eat. I'd wait later to eat.

Today I opted not to FaceTime Ansel, I didn't want to worry him by telling him that I'm not eating lunch. When I texted him that I didn't want to FaceTime, he understood and told me to enjoy my break, telling me to text him whenever.

Picking up my phone, I decided to wander the hospital halls and scroll through my phone in hopes of killing time. I went through all of my social media accounts, skimming through them to see if there was any new drama going on. I despise being in drama, but I enjoy watching it.

Why am I like this?

With a shake of my head, I slid my phone back into the pocket of my scrubs. I chose to sit on a bench outside the hospital; since I needed some fresh air. As I was enjoying the sun on my skin, I felt a vibration in my pocket. I ignored it, because I didn't feel like responding to it, thinking it was a text.

The vibrations persisted, so I grumbled and took out my phone. It was a phone call from a different hospital. I considered leaving it ringing, assuming they had dialed the wrong number, but something compelled me to pick up. That's exactly what I did.
