He growls, his anger building at my words
"Selfishness? How dare you accuse me of selfishness? I did what I had to do to make sure you were mine . Matteo was getting to close to you, and I couldn't allow that. You're my property darling. My possession. And I won't let anyone take you from me."
-I'm no one's property! * I scream in anger, and feel sharp pain in my chest as I scream, but I don't care anymore because im furious and I can feel the anger building up inside of me , the way he talks of me like he owns me, just drives me crazy*
He steps closer, towering me with his anger and possession in his eyes
"Oh, but you are darling. You belong to me. You're my property, you're mine. You may not like it right now, but you'll learn to accept it eventually. Trust me, darling."
I see that there's no point fighting against him he won't understand either way
-Okay fine, just leave now...Matteo is coming , please! We'll talk again, okay? Just leave...
"Fine, I'll leave for now...but this isn't over! We'll talk again, and when we do...you better listen to what I have to say. Undderstood?"
-Fine, fine...just leave!
He gives me one more cold, menacing look before turning to leave. He strides to the door and exits the room, closing the door behind him.
A few moments later Matteo arrives. He enters the room, a warm, gentle smile on his face as he sees me. He approaches my bedside and takes a sit at the chair near me
"Hey, sweetheart, im back. How are you feeling?"
I try to hide the fact that Alex was here and I smile as he softly speaks to me...
-Hi, honey. So what did the nurse say? Can we go home?
"Well, the nurse said you were doing better, but you need to stay here for a few more days to make sure you're recovering, im sorry, sweetheart. It looks like we can't go home yet."
-oh come on.... * I say as I hit my leg*
He chuckles softly, amused by my reaction
"I know, I know. Trust me, I wish we could go home too . But the nurse said it's best if you stay here for now. We need to make sure you're fully recovered before we leave, okay?"
-Alright, well. Just a few more days?
He smiles and nods
"Yeah, just a few more days, love. And I'll come visit you everyday."
-I understand ...*I say and look down and think to myself ~oh here we go again, there's more likely that Alex is now able to visit me more~*
-Okay, so I'll see you tomorrow then...it's already so late you should get some rest too...
"Alright, sweetheart. I'll come here first thing in the morning."
I look up at him and smirk
-Okay but in one condition though...
He looks at me a curious expression on his face
"Oh? What's the condition, sweetheart?"
-If I have to stay here, then you have to take me out for at least 20 minutes a day, deal?
He laughs softly, finding my request endearing. He nods, a warm smile on his face
"Of course, my beautiful wife. I'll take you out for walks every single day, as long as you're up for it. I'll make sure you get plenty of fresh air and sunshine, okay?"
-Okayy! * I say in a low tone and I smile as I think to myself, how did I even get to this point of my life, all of these things happened way too fast I didn't even have time to process them all, I got married, I moved in with him, then I got shot, and then? What's next??... I look up at him again and smile again warmly thinking how lucky I am and how come he changed his actions towards me and the way he takes care of me is just so sweet. Even in this condition I feel safe around him, and I've never felt this way with anyone before...*
He sees the smile on my face and feels a wave of affection wash over him.
"I'll do anything to make sure you're comfortable and happy, sweetheart. Just focus on getting better , okay?"
-Mhm * I nod as the moments when Alex came into my room and the words he said about not leaving me alone until he gets what he wants ...the memories rush back to me*
"Sweetheart, what's wrong? Are you okay?"
*I wanna tell him so bad but I can't, because If I fo I may just worry him even more so I say:
-no,it's just...it's been a lot to take in...all of this...
He nods in understanding
"I know, sweetheart. A lot has happened, and it's a lot to process. But you're strong, and you're getting better. Well go through this together, okay?"
-Of course ....* I murmur~ together...
-I trust you Matteo! I look at him In the eyes and now i realize that when I told Alex that I've fallen for Matteo ...all of it was true...I look at his eyes, and I do really realize that I've fallen for him
He looks into my eyes, seeing the trust and sincerity in my gaze.
"Thank you sweetheart. Your trust means more to me than you know. And I promise, I'll do everything I can to make sure I'm worthy of it."
-Matteo...
"Yes, sweetheart? What is it?"
-I love you ...I really do!
His eyes widen in surprise, his heart swelling with emotions at my words. He cups my face with his hands
"Sweetheart...I love you too... More than you know. You're the strongest, bravest and the most beautiful person I've ever met , and I'm truly lucky to have you in my life"
-I just wanna go home and enjoy life like nothing had happened...
"I know, sweetheart. I want that too. But we need to make sure you're fully recovered first."
-Okay, but how long? How long do I have to stay here?
"I don't know exactly. It depends on how quickly you heal."
-Mmm, okay fine. *I say as I roll my eyes*
He chuckles, amused by my eye rolling and mild display of sass. He reaches out and ruffles my hair teasingly, a playful grin on his face.
"Hey don't give me that attitude, sweetheart. I'm taking good care of you here, in case you haven't noticed."
-So what if I don't, what if I still keep that attitude? What you gonna do? * I say with a smirk on my face*
"Oh, I have my ways with dealing with your sass, you know. If you keep this up, I'll have to find a way to put you in your place."
-hmm, how about we talk about that when we get home? * I say with a playful smile*
He grins, enjoying my playful bonter. He leans in even closer, his numb gently tracing the outline of my jaw, and responds in a lower tone.
"Oh, we'll definitely talk about that when we get home, sweetheart. And trust me you won't be able to be this sassy then."
* smile and I take the chance of him being so close to me, by pulling him closer and kissing him...*
He responds to my kiss immediately, the surprise quickly giving way to enthusiasm. He kisses me back passionately, his hand sliding up to cup my cheek. After a few moments, he reluctantly breaks the kiss, his eyes soft and loving as he looks at me.
"Sweetheart, you're not playing fair here."
*I rise my eyebrow in a question way* -Why is that?
"Because you know I can't resist you when you kiss me like that. Especially when we're still in the hospital and I can't take you home yet."
*I laugh softly and cover my mouth with my hands...* -Yeah, yeah you're right, you should leave now it's getting pretty late, and nothings gonna happen, I can protect myself...
