Can't we go back ?

Chapter 12

Finals

When the doctor checks her vitals for the last time before discharging her I go to the cafeteria and order 2 coffees, once I get the 2 coffees I make my way to Estelars room but I'm stopped by Isabella.
"Ryder ? Do you have a minute !"
What could she possibly want now ?
"I think to myself while putting the two coffees down to the closest table and I rest my hands on my waist and look at her with disgust.
"What could you possibly want ?"
"All I want is for us to talk, about US..."
"Woah hold on... there is no US, there's only Estelar and I."
"Wait ? Your still together ?"
"I actually asked her to marry me !"
"Oh..."
"Now go off to your boyfriend and talk about the two of you !"
"He broke up with me..."
"I'm not surprised... bye"
I picked up the coffees and walked off to Estelars room, I can hear Isabella cry behind me, but it's not my problem anymore.

I get to Estelars room and I hand over her coffee and she gently takes small sips from it.
She is satisfied with its taste, and I take the bird and check what's wrong with Estelar, just cuts and bruises, thank god...
I look behind me and the doctor is walking in.
"Well this must be Ryder, want to tell me what happened because Estelar won't !"
"Well you see... she was involved in a car accident and some glass cut her and she was  hit by the aftershock."
"Hmm okay ..."
Estelar looks at me and all I could do is wink at her. The doctor starts to walk out.
"You are free to go miss White oh and your ring is on the counter next to you, hope you have a lovely wedding !"
He turns and closes the door and walks out the room, I look at Estelar and she begins to laugh, and then she realizes what happened in the past 24 hours and her reaction turned and she was upset and ran and hugged me...
"Thank you so much Ryder I was so scared that they would hurt me !"
"Calm down your safe now !"
"How the FUCK did you do all that !"
"I have my skills..."
She smacked me over and over, and was screaming...
"Why didn't you tell me out could do all that !"
"I thought it would be wrong to tell you..."
"How ?!"
"Thought yo would think I'm a killer of some sort..."
She gave me a dead look and I could smell that stink eye from a mile away.
"Okay let's go for lunch and you are allowed to ask me anything you want and I'll tell oh the whole truth and nothing but the truth, okay ?"
"Fine..."
"Come"
I stick my hand out...
"Let's go."
She smiles and grabs my hand and we walk to the hospitals cafe, before we sit down I look around to see if I can see Isabella, when I can't find her I sit down and begin to relax...
Estelar looks at me and begins to ask me.
"When did you start,
Who taught you,
And we're you in any war ?"

"I started all this from the age around 7 and did boxing, Judo, and tae kwon do from 15 year, I was taught all this and my shooting skills from my father because he was in the army, and I was never in the war."
"Why did you never tell me ?"
"I didn't want you to think I was a killing machine."
"Then why are you with me ?"
"Because I love you and I want to slow down, forget my past and start a future, and I want to get married after our finals !"
"Fine..."
"I love you Estelar..."
She smile and looks at me, our eyes locked.
"I love you too Ryder !"

A few months have passed and we find ourselves in a room, I'm writing my finals for my studies and I'm waiting for the timer to end, I've already finished my paper and checked it 30 times and I'm starting to be impatient. I begin to tap my foot and the instructor looks at me.
"Come forward Mr Ryder.."
I get up, grab my paper and walk towards the front of the room, dropping my body every step.
"Give me your paper and you may leave."
"THANK YOU SIR !"
I hand him my paper and turn and salute my friends, grabbing my bag and leaving the room.
I stroll down the corridor with the biggest smile on my face. I see Estelar standing at the front door sticking her hand out for me to grab it, but instead I tap her ass and exit the building turning and looking at her. She laughs, runs and jumps into my arms and kisses me. I hold her tight and spin with her in my arms, and we both laugh with joy in our hearts. We try to forget the last and move on with the future...
We go to my car and she hops in and I slide in the drivers seat.
"Where too ?"
"Nearest bar ! I could go for a drink !"
"Sounds like a plan !"

We drove off to wendies wine and whiskey, and the bass is being felt in our chest.

We sit down and order our drinks and we talk about our finals and how we think we did.

"Hay I've been meaning to ask you..."
"What's up ?"
"What did the foreigners want you for ?"
"They wanted me to build a machine but don't worry, I built it in a way, once they switch it on.... BOOM goes the machine."
"Smart ass hay ?"
"I know !"
I fall back into the booth and laugh.
"So listen, when we getting married ?"
"Next year ?"
" okay... sounds like a plan !"
