The Secretary

All Over?

Carson's pov
-------------------------

The police and ambulance had arrived only a few minutes after I called them once I had seen my angel was stabbed and beaten. They took the devil that stabbed her to jail and he would be staying there for a long time. Or maybe I would just pay for something to...happen to him while he's in jail. But I didn't want to think about that right now. All I could think about was if Brooklyn was ok.

I was currently in the waiting room, sitting in one of these uncomfortable chairs with my head in my hands.

She loved me...but was I too late to say it back? Would she ever know that I loved her? That I would give my life up for hers? If she..when she gets through this I swear I'll treat her like a princess and she'll never leave my side. She deserves the world and not all this pain that was inflicted on her.

I looked over at Brooklyn's brother, Jaxon, who looked just as worried as I was. I had called him when I arrived at the hospital and he immediately took one of his planes out here. I wondered why their parents weren't here. Wouldn't they want to be here since their daughter had just gotten stabbed and beaten. I wanted to ask Jaxon but I knew right now wasn't the best time to be asking about it.

All of this made me wonder what her past was like. If that guy was her boyfriend before then he must have hurt her before. Just the thought of anyone laying their hands on my angel made me want to give them a slow and painful death. No one would ever touch her like that ever again.

I got snapped out of my thoughts by a hand waving in front of my face.

"Earth to Carson. Are you still there?" Jaxon asked with his brows furrowed.

I sighed and ran a hand over my face "Yeah..just was in my own little world I guess. Did you say something?" I asked and looked at him with tired eyes. We had been waiting here for a while and it was now four in the morning.

"Yeah. I asked what your intentions with my sister are. If you're just to get in her pants you better leave now." The last time I saw him he was here for Brooklyn and hardly said a word to me. But I was a bit offended that he thought the only reason I was here was to get into her pants.

"I'm here because I care about her dumbass." I growled "I hired a private investigator so I could find where she went. She's the love of my life and I was too much of a wimp to admit it before she left. I can't lose her. She's the only person to ever make me feel like this. She's the only person in the world that can get my soft side out. She sees the best in me even when I can't. She's so perfect and I was too much of a coward to tell her any of this. I love her and I'll be devastated if I never get to see her again." I said, not even noticing the tears brimming my eyes.

Jaxon looked deep in thought for a few moments before a small smile crept onto his face.

"You're good for her. Don't let her go. She needs someone in her life to be there for her." He said softly as he put a hand on my shoulder.

I smiled a little and gave him a nod as my way of saying thankyou.

I was so busy ranting on of why I was here that I didn't even notice a doctor walk up before he cleared his throat. I whipped my head around and quickly stood up, I probably gave myself whiplash.

"How is she?" I asked quickly. She had go be alive. She had to be ok. I couldn't live my life without her.

After a few moments the doctor gave me a small smile. It wasn't a sad one but a genuine one. She was ok.

"She'll be ok. We had to stitch up her stomach and there'll be a permanent scar of where it is but other then that she should be ok and no permanent damage. If you want, you can go back and see her now. She lost a lot of blood so she won't be awake for a while though. I suggest you get some sleep." The doctor said before walking away.

Jaxon and I practically sprinted to her room after the doctor finished talking. Once we got in we both studied the state she was in.

She had a black eye and a few other marks on her face. I couldn't see the scar on her stomach but I knew it was there. It would always be there now...

I took a seat next to her bed and held one of her hands while Jaxon did the same but on the other side of her.

"I'm sorry I wasn't there sooner." I whispered and kissed her hand "I love you too. So so much."

I got into the most comfortable position as I could seeing I was having to sleep in a chair. But I didn't care what I slept as long as I was close to Brooklyn.

I closed my eyes and after a few moments I felt myself drift off to sleep.

The next time I opened my eyes was because I felt a small squeeze on my hand. I slowly opened my eyes and noticed it was bright out which meant I had slept for a while. But then I remembered I felt a squeeze on my hand which is I was awake.

My eyes quickly snapped to the bed and I saw my angel smiling at me weakly.

"You found me." She whispered softly.

A bright smile appeared on my face and I kissed her hand softly "I love you so so much. It's all over." I whispered and watched as the smile grew on her face at my words.
