Run Red Riding hood...Run

(Scott's pov)

"Why hasn't she waken up yet?" I paced the hospital room in frustration. And worry. 

"She will" Nick said as he brushed her red hair with his fingers. 

"Off" my head was gripping his wrist in a second. "That's my mate"

Nick stood up from the chair he had been sitting in.  "Go to hell. I love her. Deal with It. "

He intertwined his fingers with hers.

" I swear-" I was cut off by coughing.

My Angel was waking up.
Suddenly I forgot about Nick and I was by her side in a second. 

But he was the first one she saw. 
"Hey you" he chuckled. "You scared us there. "

"Youre still here " she looked relieved and I felt like I was being kicked in the gut. 

"Milla, you're my best friend. We have been through it all.  I'm not going anywhere. Even if you wanted me to"

She nodded and leaned against him. Her expression started To change.

"Milla whats wrong?" I asked.  Worry filled me.

"I saw my family" she whispered to herself as a tear rolled down her pale face. 

She had no heart beat for 3 minutes until they brought her back. 

******
I lit a candle and got into the bed with her. Tucking her in as her big blue eyes began to slowly close. 

"It's ok to sleep.  Me and Nick are gonna keep you safe" I whispered and kissed her head. 

Milla was still hurt.  The hospital let me bring her home, but she still had a lot of healing to do. 

"And when you're feeling better I'm gonna take you out.  An official date and it'll be the most amazing night of your life. " I was so in love with her. 

"Everything hurts" she grimaced.  "But for now, just don't leave me alone.  "

"I promise baby now get some sleep" she was so hurt and injured it hurt me too. 

"Wait wait ...I have one more question" she yawned. "On the cliff..I told you I loved you.  Did I scare you away?"

"Baby no no no," I chuckled. "When you said you loved me....I wanted to sweep you off your feet and give you the biggest kiss.   The only thing that scared me was watching the woman I love fall off a cliff"

She began to cry lightly. 

I kissed her tears and then..I kissed her soft lips gently. " never again will I let anything happen to you.  "

"It wasn't you fault Scott.  "

But it was.  I failed at keeping my mate safe. 

"Get some sleep princess. Its late." I kissed her head and she snuggled in. She was snoring in minutes.

"How cute. " Nick said sarcasticly.  He stood at the door.  Gifts in his hand.  He walked over and put a teddy bear in sleeping millas arms. And placed roses on the bed stand next to her. 

He kissed her cheek.  

It took everything in me to not rip his throat out.  My mate cared about him.  But he was pushing it. 

"I need to talk to you outside" he said and with that we walked into the hallway.  I crossed my arms. 

"She's a virgin Scott.  " he glared.  "She's my best friend.  I know she is.  And something tells me you're not."

"What the hell are you trying to say"I growled but tried to keep my voice down.  for milla.

"I'm saying if you ever hurt her....in anyway.  If you ever force yourself on her frale and small body, I will fucking kill you.  "

I shoved him against a wall.  "Listen, I'd die for that girl in there. I wouldn't dare hurt her.  And I don't like you talking like youre better for my mate.  "

He smiled.  and my hands that were pinning him to the wall began to burn.   Like they were on fire.  I hissed and backed off. 

"I think it's funny you know.  I've known that girl since we were toddlers.  I know everything about her, every secret, every little thing.  She trusts me, I could Rip her away from you and have it be her choice too.  Don't act like you own her.  Because before you, I was there.  Longer.  And I won't stop till she's mine. "
He walked off. 

"Nick" I called and he stopped for a minute. Looking back at me.  "Thank you for doing what you did.   Saving her. "

"Tell her i'll be back tomorrow morning. Have to take care of some things.  "

He walked off.   With the stance of a killer. 

And that's when I noticed it. 

Nick seemed different. There was darkness in his eyes.
  Something wicked.
