His Bet

Chapter Fifty Two

"You ready sweetheart?"

I nodded.

Today is another session with Dr. Julia and again its making me nervous. We are now driving to Rain Valley and I'm so caught up with my thoughts when Brix called me.

"Don't be nervous baby. I'll be there during the session. It'll be fine, okay?" He said trying to convince me making small glances at me as he drive.

"Okay." I whispered.

He didn't push further after that and let me stay in silence. Before I knew it he's now pulling off the car as he parked in front of the hospital building. I stayed there inside the car though I felt him get out. Of course I am to wait for him to open the door car.

"You want to stay on the car for a while?" He asked as he open the door for me to get out.

I don't actually know if I want to stay or not. Staying or not I still need to get inside and see the doctor. I was about to answer him when I heard him talk.

"You want to cancel for tonight babe?"

I snap my attention to him when he said that.

"I can?" I tentatively ask.

"Of course my sweetheart. I'll do what ever you say." He said as he faked bow like a lady.

I let a small chuckle on that. Its tempting to cancel tonight's session but I've been horrible last time and I need to make that up. If I cancel I'd be waisting Dr. Julia's and Brix's time and I'm sure I'll just feel bad for that. And still on the back of my mind something's pushing me to get a hold and at least try. Brix has been putting all his efforts on this and I just can't let him down. I want to get better and this is one way to get better. Pushing all fears at the back of my mind I finally decided to give this again a shot. It'll be alright. Brix is here, then I'll be fine. I wanna be okay..

"I'm not cancelling." I said with a bit determination and my voice. I saw how Brix's lips formed a small smile at what I've said.

"You know I'm not pushing you to do things if you don't want to."

"Its fine. I need to at least try. But promise me you won't leave me, yeah?" I sounded scared, overreacting, clingy and whatever when I told him that but I less care. I want him to be there.. He's the only one person who can understand my crazy behavior and he hasn't judge me for the things I've gone through. He stays by my side no matter what and he keeps everything under control and manageable. The nightmares and panic may be there but things are much easier if he's with me. I need him to be there. My protector, my soldier and my peace.

"Never sweetheart. I'll just go when you push me away. But I can't promise that I'll just leave you hanging, I'll probably watch you from afar just to make sure you're safe and okay." He shrugs and I know he's telling the truth.

I can't say anything about that so I just smiled at him and mumbled a thanks for showing me how much he care.

He slip his hands on mine and I suddenly look at our hands. How his big ones always give me comfort and warmth. I accepted his hold and entwined my fingers with him. As I look up at him he's staring down at me smiling.

"You're gonna be the death of me.." I heard him whisper. I'm totally out of breathe by his words when Dr. Julia opened the door for us and greet us.

Still holding that thought we walk in her office and take a seat. I'm so caught up by what he said that my nervousness is at bay. Pursing my lips and still thinking, I squeak on shock when someone appear on the line of my vision.
