Help Me

Chapter Ten

My body felt really heavy, groaning slightly. Sighing, fluttering my eyes open. Looking around at my surroundings. Working out that I was still in the same room as before. Still very much tied down as well.

Looking up, there was someone sitting on the chair that was opposite me. They seemed to notice that I was awake and got up standing next to my bedside. “Good afternoon Luna, how are you feeling?” The Irish accent was very strong, the thing that got me was that she said afternoon. How long had I been out for?

My voice came out hoarse, “stiff, but okay I think. Thank you.” She just smiled at me, noting something down on the clipboard that was on the end of my bed.

My body felt disgusting, like I hadn't showered for days, weeks even. My greasy hair was stressing me out the most, hating the feeling of having dirty hair. “Can I please have a shower?” Whispering out, as it seems I hadn't used my voice in a while.

The person smiled at me sadly, thinking about it now everyone in this place had a real issue of telling me their names. “We have to wait for The Boss to come and clear that, sorry I mean Miss Bethany.” You can really tell who were the higher ups in this place. The formalities spoke for themselves.

Looking at her, she was really pretty, again most of these women who I have met so far were, also they were all extremely tall. Long, ash brown hair was tied neatly into a ponytail. Small pieces out and framing her face.

Building up the courage to ask her, her name. “What's your name?” Asking shyly, not knowing if I was allowed or not to know.

Turning around to face me, she just smiled. “Nurse Milly, there's no need to be shy, I don't bite like some.” Chuckling softly to herself, she seemed nice.

Miss Bethany's POV

Getting a page that Luna was awake again, I was currently dealing with an issue that had appeared with a patient. Blood was shed, and guards were swarming everywhere.

Paging the clean up team, this was going to be one hell of a mess for them to clean up.

Stepping over some bloody clothes that were laying in the middle of the hallway. This happened at least twice a week so it wasn't a massive issue, just protocol made all the higher ups head down to assist.

Taking off my gloves and chucking them on the pile, as everything had calmed down I made my way towards unit five.

Now was my time to try and get inside of Luna's head. Usually if a patient punches a guard then the emergency alarm goes off, but because it was an isolated incident and me and my wife were already there we didn't have to follow the rules. We owned the place anyway.

It wasn't a long walk to unit five. Walking up the stairs towards Luna's room. Nurse Milly was on shift currently, she was an excellent nurse as well as nurse Amber. Both are completely different in how they approach situations which made them excellent to assist me on cases I deemed classified from everyone else.

Eventually Luna's room was straight ahead of me, not bothering to put on a pair of gloves as I was just going to sit on the chair in front of her bed.

Walking in, nodding my head slightly at nurse Milly, dismissing her for the time being. Taking a seat, observing her very carefully. Body language is the key to everything.

Luna was just staring at me, her eyes told an untold story. A destructive past, unclear future. Someone's eyes can tell you a lot about them, the way a storm rages in them or a calm summer's day.

Luna's POV

Miss Bethany was just sitting there staring at me. It didn't feel awkward though, but the way she was staring, felt like she was definitely trying to pick into my soul.
