Chapter 7
When I opened my eyes the next morning. Delano was the first I saw, he had been asleep himself. He looked at peace and not worried about anything. Relaxed and beautiful. The nurse came in and he jumped and was so startled. She seemed cold and unfeeling, she helped me change and dressed the wound one last time.
Outside my driver and car were there, now it was becoming clear - they knew each other. I got in first, when he got in I snuggled down into him and just breathed in his scent, it was so much nicer than the smell of the hospital. I started to think 'What if he was there again?' "What if" he cut me off " Amaury is there, he has been there since the hospital kicked him out"
I felt a flutter in my stomach. My house wasn't mine anymore but a revolving door. It was a short ride home. When we got there, he was already standing in the driveway waiting for us. He opened the door opposite of me, I took his hand and he pulled me out quickly and put both arms around me and hugged me so hard, I cried out a little. "I hurt you, I'm sorry, I am just so happy to see you"
He did all this right in front of the watching eyes of Delano without even a thought. He put his arm around my waist and took me in and told the driver to just put my stuff inside the door. He also told him he could go and he threw him some keys. He then swept me off the ground and laid me on the couch and knelt on the floor next to me. 'This one had nerve' I thought. Delano had gone over to the bar to make a drink. Seemingly unfazed by his actions. "I missed you so much" Amaury said to me and reached up and kissed me on the lips.
Even I was a bit stunned by this. Delano came over and picked up my legs and laid them across his lap as he sat down. Amaury got up and pushed my shoulder up and laid the rest of me across his lap as he sat down. I didn't now what to say. I wasn't afraid of them, more stunned by how lovely they looked sitting next to each other, and curious why Delano was OK with this.
