"Ayeeeeeee man!" Zeke yelled, throwing his hands up to catch his best friends attention "He's so blind baby." He chuckled when his girlfriend Maricarmen. It took Dak about a solid five minutes to find the couple, and when he did, he gave him the normal 'hey man' brother hugging thing.
Maricarmen gave him a friendly nod before yelling over the music "Where's Carmen?!"
"She's in the hospital." Once he said it like that, he sounded like a shitty spouse as he's here to get shitfaced.
Zeke nearly spit out his drink glaring at his best friend "Why she in the hospital? Why is your ass here right now?"
"Because there's too much going on right now." He answered rubbing the back of his neck as if there was a lot of pressure on it.
Giving his a 'bitch please' face, Elliot set his drink down on the table, taking the glass of alcohol out of Dak's hand "Explain."
"Doctor's said that there's a lot of tissue damage and fluid in Carmen's back. She's getting surgery first thing in the morning. I also found a journal of hers, and she's wrote how all that shit that went down with her dad is seriously inflicting her mentally. And then, adding onto that, I've been messing around behind her back with that Nicole chick."
Dallas Nicoe Parks. Zeke knew he had a bad feeling about that girl. Seeing not only his quarterback, but his brother like friend drop his head down in his hands in utter defeat. He knew he had fucked up badly. It made the running back feel for him, just a little.
But there was no time for that shit, here comes the tough love.
"Dak go home," He pat his friend's back continuing "See your wife tomorrow, and when the time is right, man up. Admit to her your faults and mistakes. It'll take time, make it work. Fix things, make a effort. Go now."
And so he listened to his teammate. He went straight home that night and was there the next morning to support his wife. He owed her that for not picking up what it was wrong before.
Actually. He owed her a lot more than that.
"Oh look who's up," Danielle had arrived early that morning before Carmen's surgery and never left the waiting room. The former Women's Champion was laid on her right rife, rubbing her eyes "Hello sleeping beauty."
With a sleepy smile, she saw her wrestling buddy "Mhm hey," currently, she couldn't feel anything, thank goodness to the medicine. "Where's the Rayne."
"He literally stepped out to get some coffee," She explained having a slip of her green drinks. Danielle was all about organic healthy food and drinks, and it worked because she's in amazing shape for age. "He told me he came back shortly he left here last night. I got here this morning and you two here sleeping all cuddled up together. It was actually pretty adorable."
Mhm. The thought about it made her sleepy smile spread a bit bigger as she still kind of struggled to wake up. "That's great," She paused for a moment "Hey Danielle?"
"Yeah?"
"Thanks for being here, I know you have a lot on your plate. Thank you."
Giving her smile, Danielle said "No problem, besides, I'm out of ring action too so might as well recover together."
"Babe! You're awake!" Dak came in a bunch of bouquet of flowers in his hands and somewhere was his coffee cup curled against his body. He was up most of the night with some guilt that was eating him up, slept maybe for about three hours and that was about it. Dark circle under his eyes took place.
Carmen was more of awake by that time, and was sitting up with the help of the doctor so they could take some tests. When she heard her husband come in, her eyes widened seeing the many flowers for her not only in his arms, but that were already in her hospital room.
"I am, where did all of these flowers come from?"
There were so many "Well, these are Danielle's and mine," He pointed to the ones next to her bed "Zeke's and Maricarmen's," It was the dark blue ones, of course. "Stephanie and Hunter sent those," Some really expensive ones "and more of from a couple of wrestlers."
"Oh, that's nice of everyone." She commented watching him struggle to set the flowers down. Setting down his coffee, the quarterback bent down giving her a soft kiss before taking the seat next to her. They had to talk, about some stuff that they were being honest with. Probably bad timing, but it had to be talked about.
Danielle yawned before announcing "Alright, I'm gunna go to my hotel room and get some rest. Leave you two lovebirds."
"Okay, bye Danielle," The young woman giggled as Danielle left.
"Carmen," As soon as they were left alone, it was time to get to the real issue. She laid back down feeling her medicine wear off "Hmm?"
Maybe not right now. "I love you."
"I love you too."
Another time they'll have this discussion.
