HIS CLUMSY NURSE

Book 21

 

I hugged her tightly, savoring the moment. She chuckled softly, her voice slow and weak.

"So... won't you kiss me?" she asked, her words laced with a teasing tone.

I laughed, and she smiled, revealing her beautifully set teeth.

"How can your first words be so naughty?" | teased.

"Just kiss me," she complained.

I leaned in and pecked her lips, then kissed her deeply. She smiled and kissed me back.

"Can you move?" | asked softly.

"Hardly. Even opening my eyes was difficult. I just... wanted to see you," she said, her voice faint.

"Thank you," | breathed, hugging her again as she smiled warmly.

                     ANNA'S POV

"Come on," I whispered, watching him move into the bed beside me.

He carefully lay down and gently pulled me into his arms. I smiled, settling against him as his embrace surrounded me.

I glanced at the IV drips connected to me and pouted sadly. He noticed my expression and smiled knowingly.

"No," he whispered, his lips curling into a seductive smile.

"I'm tired," I complained weakly.

"You just woke up, baby. You need all the energy you can get," he whispered softly

"It hurts," I sulked, knowing it was the only way to differentiate the doctor from the fiancé.

"Fine. Just tonight," he relented, sighing.

I nodded with a small smile as he breathed out, then watched him turn off the drips.

"This will sting," he murmured against my lips.

"As long as it's you," | whispered back, causing him to smile before he carefully removed the needles.

He kissed and massaged my hands gently.

"'m sorry," he whispered.

"I'm sorry too, for staying away so long," | replied, finally relaxing into his arms.

He hugged me tightly, and I buried myself in the intoxicating scent of his cologne, skin, and hair.

Looking into his face, I raised a brow.

"Ryan, do you still love me?" | whispered.
He chuckled softly. "How would I stop loving you when I haven't stopped breathing?" he replied.

I smiled as he continued, "Loving you is all I know how to do."

We kissed deeply.

"I missed you so much... I feel so guilty leaving now," he whispered.

"It's just three months; you're stuck with me forever," | replied with a smile.

He chuckled sweetly.

We cuddled closer, and I drifted off to the sweetest sleep.

                      CLARA'S POV

"Oh my God, I am so late!" I exclaimed, rushing into the living room, only to be blocked by my mom.

"Mom!" I groaned.

"Clara, you're not leaving my house dressed like this," she said sternly.

"But Mom, what's wrong?" I asked.

"How many bags are you carrying?" she demanded.

"Mom, I can't carry my box. I don't want people to know I'm traveling," I explained.

"And how many winter jackets are you
wearing?"

"Just three," I replied quickly.

"Then why did you cover yourself with a duvet on top of that?"

"Because I'm cold! Besides, this bedspread covers everything perfectly. I don't want people to notice l'm traveling— owe so many people money," I muttered.

"You cannot leave my house like this, Clara," she said firmly.

"But-"

Before I could finish, she chased after me, and I bolted out the door.

Finally, I arrived at the airport, I left for Africa and soon I got there .

~~~~

It's been a while since I got here, and I'm starting to get scared as the sky grows darker. This is my first time being out so late.

Finally, Ryan called. I jumped happily, momentarily forgetting my fear as I blushed.

"Hello, sir," I answered in the sweetest voice I could muster

"Clara, where on earth are you?" he asked

"I've been here for over thirty minutes! Have you not arrived?" I said.

"I have. I tried calling you earlier, but it didn't go through. I'm at the airport— where are you?"

I smiled. He came himself. Someone at his level could have easily sent a driver, but he didn't.

"I'm standing by the statue," I said.

"The man with the guitar?" he asked.

"Yes, sir."

"But there are so many people there," he noted.

Determined to stand out, I climbed onto the statue and raised my hand high.

"Are you the one dressed like a madwoman?" he asked.

"Huh?"

"Stay there-I'm coming," he said and hung up.

A madwoman? Me? Wow.

Just then, I heard a voice behind me.

"Come down."

I turned and froze in shock. My eyes widened, and so did his.

It's him.

Before I could react, I slipped from the statue and fainted.

OMG! The guy l insulted... is  Ryan Dervantes.
