SAVED

Chapter 3

I looked up at the officer as I felt an arm go around my neck and under my legs and lifted me off the car. I was about to protest but instead, I laid my head in the crook of his neck inhaling the sweet smell of mint and aftershave god he smells good.

I lifted my head slowly and I saw the enormous red sign saying 'WEBSTER HOSPITAL' then he stroll inside the strong fluorescent lights blinded me for a minute.

I put my head back and I heard him say about the condition I was in and he places me gently in the gurney and the nurse strolled me off to the hospital bed.

The grey-haired middle-aged man whose name was Dr.Wright gave me a run down about my current condition.

I zoned out still remembering the feel of his hands on me I shudder at the thought.

"Well Olivia you seem to have some bruising no injuries but I recommend you to lay down and rest for a while, " He said.

"Thanks, doc," I said appreciating what he's done.

"Are you sure she's okay? " Said a deep voice.

Then I realized I know that voice.

I turned my head to across the room he stands there leaning on the white and gray door he was about maybe 6' then I read his name tag it said 'Valdez.A' and he just was staring at me with those piercing green eyes that make you melt.

"Yes, she's fine besides the bruising which will go down in a couple of days." Said Dr.Wright

I sit up trying to move and my stomach doesn't hurt as much the pain wasn't something I couldn't handle.

"Well, I guess I should be going now huh?" I didn't want to stay I hated hospitals I hated them they are a creepy place where people die here every day and I'm for one didn't deal with death easily hell if anybody does. But I just wanted to leave.

The doctor had left so that left me and the Greek god of a police officer which I couldn't help but glance at him every couple of seconds

He sat down on the white and black chair next to me and pulled out a notepad and said, "Could you give me a description of your attacker any tattoos, piercings, scars?"

Scars... his left eyebrow.

I was not in the mood to explain my attacker right now I just needed to pee and get some rest.

"Excuse me," I said as I moved my legs to the side of the bed then I felt a large hand go over my leg. His warm hand sent shivers down my spine and it was there for a second.

"You're not planning on running away? Are you?" He said in his deep sexy voice.

" I need to pee don't worry now move out the way," I said in an irritated tone he nodded and I just rolled my eyes I got up slowly my ribs still hurt but not as much I could take the pain. Then I felt a gentle hand go around my waist helping me I turn to see him staring at me. Then my eyes went to his lips. God those lips they were perfect plump pink soft looking lips.

Then he turns straight ahead and I did the same " You know I don't need your help I can walk. My legs still work you know." I said

"Well it can't hurt to help," he said dryly.

As We reached to the door I mumble thanks and entered into the restroom closed the door behind me and closed my eyes ugh why am I checking him out. I turned slowly to the mirror then I saw my cheek still had a red mark across it my lip was slightly busted, my long brown hair was now a bird nest my big brown eyes look empty I lost all color I look paler than I naturally was. I look like a total mess.

That's when I couldn't take it anymore I cried. I couldn't hold my tears in anymore I simply couldn't I slid my back to the end of the wall of the bathroom and sobbed into my hands I almost got raped and got beaten up

Then I heard him knock and he said softly "You okay in there? "

I looked up debating if I should open it for him I wanted to be alone crawl into a hole and never come out. I slowly got up and walk to the door and unlock it I barely had a chance to twist the metal doorknob when he rushed in and hugged me.

I was shocked at first at his sudden affection but I relaxed into his embrace. He rubbed my hair softly and said "It's okay everything okay I got you. I got you"

But everything wasn't okay I'll still go back to that hell hole where I'll get yelled at and beaten. There is no changing in my life ever.

He pulls back first and gently touch my skin "I'll find the asshole that did this to you." he said in a tight voice.

And I laid my head on his chest and closed my eyes it was weird.

I never had someone that truly care for me except two certain people.

I felt something

I felt safe.
