“Uh yes, Ms. [Name] this is Toris,” The nervous Lithuanian man began as he spoke into the receiver of the phone in a hushed tone, “we need you to come over….it’s happening again.”
Her body tensed at the man’s words, immediately giving acknowledgement to his words and hanging up only to quickly get dressed and rush over to Ivan’s house.
“Where is he?” She asked the moment she was allowed into the house.
“In his office.” Raivis answered.
[Name] gave a nod and was then heading in the direction of Ivan’s office, hesitating for only a moment before walking into the grand room. [E/C] eyes scanned the area but there was no sign of the Russian man anywhere, not until she caught the sight of movement in one of the corners in the room that is. As the young woman moved closer she saw Ivan sitting in the corner of his office, presumably talking to himself until he caught sight of her.
“Hey there Ivan.” [Name] said as she sat on the floor in front of him.
“I wish I could say I am surprised to be seeing you here but I cannot.” The Russian man spoke as though nothing were wrong.
“How are you?” The [h/c] haired female continued.
“Not good.” Ivan answered with a frown.
“Is it the voices again?” [Name] asked, far too used to this routine and when Ivan gave no response she pressed on, “It’s gonna be alright, they can’t hurt you; just focus on me Ivan.”
“I need you [Name].” Ivan confessed as he looked at the young woman with a most serious expression, “They only leave when you’re near.” He continued before pulling her into his arms and holding onto her as though his life depended on it, “You can go, you can leave me [Name].”
“It’s okay Ivan,” [Name] said in a soothing voice as she wrapped her arms around the frantic man, “I’m not going anywhere.”
“Don’t leave me.” Ivan begged, holding her tighter.
“Oh Ivan I would never leave you, so long as you want me I’ll never leave you.” [Name] whispered, blushing upon realizing the confession her words held.
“I only want you [Name].” Ivan stated, leaning his head on her shoulder and taking ease in the comfort she brought with her.
It wasn’t too long after that that [Name] realized that Ivan had fallen asleep, this was the worst episode he’s had and it was no wonder that he was left exhausted. She couldn’t help but to hold him tightly and stroke his hair as he slept, feeling sorry that the ghosts of his past still haunted him even now but also found a small ray of hope being that she was able to help this man she loved so much.
