33. HANDS OFF HE'S MINE

Elijah's POV

"You might think you can fool everyone with your innocent act Elijah but I can see right through you. I don't want to be part of your stupid party and I don't want to even see your face because you make me sick." She spat as she turned to walk away.
I kept my anger in check but I still held her hand to stop her. I didn't want to fight with her bust she didn't want to see reason.

It happened so fast.
Sienna turned around and pushed me. I lost balance and saw that I was heading down the stairs.
As if on instinct, I wrapped my arms around my stomach. All I thought, as I painfully tumbled down the stairs, was for Peanut to be alright.
I would rather suffer than allow Peanut to get hurt.
Before I lost consciousness, I looked up at Sienna's blurry image up the stairs and imagined ways I could kill her for hurting me and my baby.
Just wait.

Marcus's POV

After 2 painful hours of crying, running out of tears and then staring at the hospital ceiling, the doctor finally came through the door.
I rushed to him with new hope and energy. Please let Eli and the baby be fine.
"Relatives of Duncan Elijah?" The doctor asked as he looked away from his clipboard.
"Yes," I spoke first. I know there were a few people who stood behind me.
"Who are you to Elijah?" The doctor asked.
"I'm his fiancé," I quickly responded. "Is Elijah okay?" I quickly asked right after.
"I assure you Mr. Duncan is alive and well. The surgery was a success," the doctor said.

"Oh, thank you."
"Thank goodness."
"Eli is okay."
"That's great."
And a lot of relieved sighs were heard from behind me.
My heart finally settled when I heard Eli was okay. I almost lost him. I would never leave him again.

"There's a few things though I need to discuss. Since you are his fiancé, please follow me. The others will be able to see him later," the doctor said as he led me to a room.
As soon as I entered, I saw Elijah lying on the hospital bed with tubes connected to his body, bandages on his head and a plaster on his arm.
I felt tears coming back to my eyes but I fought them back. I had to be strong. He was alive and well and that's what counts.
Even bandages couldn't cover his beauty. I held his left hand and kissed it before settling it back down still holding into it.

"By the way, I'm Doctor Kim, Your Highness," the doctor introduced himself.
"Please just address me as Marcus, Doctor. Is there anything seriously wrong with Elijah?" I asked as I prepared my heart for the worst.
I was too afraid to ask if Peanut was alright because I couldn't handle it if something had happened to our baby.
"Other than just a broken arm, a cut to the head and some visible bruises Elijah is fine. There was some internal bleeding but we were able to patch him up. I assure you, all three of them are fine," Dr Kim said and it took a second to register.

"All three?" I asked in shock.
"Yes. I'm not sure if you were aware or not but this is what I wanted to discuss in private. Elijah is pregnant with twins," Dr Kim said with a smile.
"I knew he was pregnant but I had no idea we were having twins," I said with a huge smile on my face.
"So, no brain damage?" I asked just to be sure. I don't know what I would do if Eli didn't remember me.
"No brain damage. We asked him a few questions when he woke up after the surgery and all was well. We just had to put him back to sleep because of the pain," Dr Kim said and I actually stood up and hugged him.

"Thank you so much doctor. I don't know what I would have done if I lost them" I said and he hugged me back.
"Just doing my job, Marcus," he said.
"Hands off." It was more of a whisper but we heard it.
I let go the doctor and met by Elijah's glare.

Elijah's POV

I heard voices as I regained consciousness. When I recognized Marcus's voice I opened my eyes to see him hugging another man.
I just almost died like what the hell.
"Hands off," I said or more like whispered and they turned to me in shock.
Marcus's smile extinguished any form of anger I had as I turned into mush. How could one man have such an effect on me.
"Hands off, Doc. He's mine," I said to the doctor I had seen the first time I woke up.
I liked him and he was adorable but not around my man.

"Sorry, Elijah. Let me leave you two to talk. I will send a nurse to check up on you later," Dr Kim said.
"Please don't send the nurse troll because he talks too much and gave me a mini headache. He almost put me in a coma with his lame jokes," I grumbled but Dr Kim just laughed as he walked out.
"You don't really act like someone who just fell down the stairs and went through surgery," Marcus said as he sat next to me.
"Marcus, just shut up and kiss me," I said before I smiled at him.

He leaned over me before his lips met mine in a sweet soft kiss. He leaned back but I raised my good hand and held his head, pulling him back and deepening the kiss.
We broke the kiss and just to stared into each other eyes.
"I'm sorry, Eli, I wasn't there. I should have protected you," Marcus said causing me to smile. He cared so much for me.
"It's okay, Marcus. We didn't know something like this would happen. Let's just be glad I'm okay. At least now if you piss me off, I can hit you with my cast," I said and we both laughed.

"So how is Peanut?" I finally asked. The first time I woke up, Dr Kim said he would discuss it with me after I got some rest.
"You mean Peanut and Strawberry," he said and I gave him a confused look. "We are having twins, Eli" he said and I couldn't help but scream with happiness.
"OH MY GOSH!!" I squealed before pulling Marcus back in for a kiss.
"I love you," I said.
"I love you more," he said before kissing me again.
