A Magic Time

Chapter:36

They gave me a full over check before releasing me. I was given antibiotics for it to finish off the reaction to the snake bite. We went straight home from that hospital. We would stop to eat and sleep before arriving at the house. My leg stopped swelling on the way home, but it still hurt to walk on it.

As soon as I stepped into the house I went straight to the shower and into some more comfortable clothes. My husband's. "Would you like something to eat angel?" Christian asked as I came into the kitchen. "Yeah." I said with a hoarse throat. He picked me up, setting me up on the counter. Then pulled a flashlight from a drawer.

"Open for me." He said. I opened my mouth wide for him to look at my throat. "I hope it's not swelling back up angel." He said. "Same." I said before coughing. He got a glass from the cabinet and filled it with water. "Try this angel." He said holding the glass out for me to take. I drank nearly the entire glass before feeling relief on my throat.

"Better?" He asked. I nodded. "Good. What would you like to eat?" "Something that won't hurt it more than it is." I answered. "Yes ma'am." He said before kissing me. I wrapped my arms around his neck pulling him closer to me. He stood between my legs as he wrapped his strong arms around me. "Finally getting that hug angel." He said.

"I've got the rest of my life to get all the hugs I want from you." I said. "Then that would mean I've got the rest of my life to kiss you as many times as I please angel." He said. I buried my head in his chest. He kissed my head. Then took a step back. I watched as he moved around the kitchen fixing us both something to eat.

We ate the food then curled up on the couch watching something random. I could tell he was still worried about me. The worst thing that could happen is me getting bit by one of those devils and there is no one around and I don't have an epipen on me. That is life threatening and I could die if I don't get to a hospital in thirty minutes.

I looked up at his face. "Chris." "Hm?" "What's on your mind?" I asked him. "Nothing." He told me. "I know something is on your mind Christian." I said. "Ok. I'm terrified that will happen again angel." He said sitting up. "I'm terrified that I won't get you back next time it does happen. After you lost consciousness, I couldn't do anything as they made sure you still had a pulse and that you were still breathing. I had to wait in the waiting room for nearly two hours not knowing if you were stable or not.

"They didn't update me on your condition. I only found out that you were still alive when the doctor came out to let me know that you were going to be fine. I don't want to go through something like that again angel." I wrapped my arms tightly around his waist. "You won't lose me Christian. I'm too stubborn to give up on fighting. Especially when I know I have someone watching over me making sure I've still got a reason to live." I told him.

"What if I said, I don't want to go on this last tour?" He asked. "Then we both would stay here and live our lives out." I said. "Then would you like to start our own family? Right here and now." He asked. I smiled at him. "Then let's not wait." I said. He kissed me before it got heated quickly.
