When we arrive back in Italy, I get scared. Well more nervous than scared, really. I know I am going to have to give everyone an explanation as to why I left.
But I can't think of myself right now because Emiliano is in pain. I can tell. He is a little sweaty and keeps making low grunting noises.
When we get out of the plane he just stops to take a minute.
"You need to go to the hospital here." I say.
"No." He refuses. "I'm fine."
"You just got shot," I remind him, "You aren't fine,"
"Victoria stop." He says.
I grab his hand, "Please?"
He sighs, "I have a nurse that can come to my house and help me."
I nod, "Okay. Let's hurry to the car, you shouldn't be walking."
We walk to the car and when he gets in, he doesn't buckle his seatbelt. Which worries me but I know it'll hurt him if he does.
He lays his head on my shoulder and I just play with his hair.
His hair is actually very soft.
When we get to his house I help him inside and take him to his room.
He lays on his bed.
"What can I do to help?" I ask.
He shakes his head, "Nothing. Just lay with me."
I hesitate, "I don't want to hurt you."
"Please, baby. I want you close to me." He says.
I get into bed with him, making sure not to hurt him.
"Get closer." He orders.
I scoot closer to him and he pulls me all the way to him so our bodies are touching.
"Did I hurt you?" I ask.
"No." He says. "The nurse should be here soon."
I nod, "Okay."
"Vanessa and Alessio will be here tomorrow." He says.
"Vanessa knows we are out here?" I ask.
"No." He laughs, "I only told Alessio. If Vanessa knew she would want to come over immediately."
I nod knowing that is true, she would.
The nurse comes in and changes his dressing. She also gives both of us pain medication.
Emiliano falls asleep after a while.
I decide to get out of bed.
I should let my friends know I am okay.
At least Etta and Louie since Emiliano said he already handled Alessio and Vanessa.
I write a little note saying where I am just in case Emiliano wakes up when I am gone.
