Nine Days

Chapter 12

“I then met this girl from my past and…uhm…I was drunk…”

“You didn’t” I say trying to hide my disgust.

“I did, but let me finish…”

“Fine, but it won’t do you any good. How could you do that to me, I thought you loved me?... I guess I was wrong”

“I do love you!” He says. Is that a tear I see? “I don’t like her at all, actually I never did to be honest. A couple of days later I went back to the bar to find out how much I had to drink that night. It turns out it was only one drink, so I got to thinking…maybe she spiked my drink. I was incredibly angry.” He says. I look at him like a dog that just ate my food, but I love him to much to really get angry at him. I guess his explanation was really good. I’m still angry at the fact that he slept with another girl, but I can’t really be angry, because I now remember the reason why I had my car accident. And it wasn’t the same reason as in the dream I had.

“After six weeks I got a text from Mary that said she was pregnant.” He says. I’m still silent, not saying a word or even making a peep. I’m soo shocked how could he get the girl pregnant!? Because when I was with…never mind, think about what Harry has done. Even if my voice betrays me, I have to talk.

“How could you get her pregnant? You’re so safe!” I say outraged.

“I must have forgotten” He looks down.

“You can’t just forget!” I continue to scream at him. “Why does it matter anyway, screaming at you won’t help the situation. You already have a baby.” I say a little sad with the fact that he might have a child with another girl.

“For the second time, I don’t like her!” He’s screaming at me. His eyes are turning black. Is he seriously getting turned on from our fight! Two can play at this game.

“You know we can make a little-Harry to…. Now…. here on this hospital bed.” He says smirking.

“Wow your really desperate to have sex?” I say also smirking. I pick up a pillow and throw it at him. He catches it and laughs.

“YES”

“Maybe later…now continue your story, that I just love so much.” I say as sarcastically as I can. His smirk disappears, but I’m not sure if it’s because I denied to sleep with him, or the fact that he needs to tell me the whole truth.

“Okay…” He takes another deep breath.

“I didn’t even text her back, because I thought she was lying to me or maybe it was some other guys baby. Fuck I didn’t know what to think. That night I was with you, in the hospital, I was disgusted with myself. I kept thinking about what would happen between us, because I seriously love you to much… So I decided to text her back demanding that she takes a DNA test to make sure IT was actually mine.”

“Oh my fuck” I said, but actually it was supposed to be in my head.

“She said she wanted to see me and I said no. I told her that I had a you and I don’t want to see her ever again. After that she didn’t stop texting me, she kept asking me where I was or if I was think of her, etc.” He said getting angry again.

“She sounds crazy” I say trying to help the situation.

“She really was, but I’m here with you now. And I’m happy your awake” His anger fades and a smile appears on his face”

“Harry?”

“Yes love” He takes my hand.

“What did that doctor say…”

“Uhm…the thing is mine…” He looks down again. I lift up his face with two of my fingers.

“Look at me…Everything is going to be alright, we will get through this. I understand what happened, but I still feel angry at you, mostly myself because I wasn’t there with you.” I should probably be angrier at myself because the reason I had an accident is…

My thoughts are interrupted when Harry says: “It isn’t your fault, it’s mine and I can’t tell you how sorry I am” He smiles and I give a loving smile back.

“Kiss me” He leans closer and gives me a loving and romantic kiss. He breaks the kiss.

“Is everything alright?” I ask

“No. I’m never gonna get over the fact that I could hurt you like that. I love you and I know this isn’t the right time but I want to make you my wife, for real. I already have a ring and the Mary problem is going to be handled…I’m going to ask her to abort the child; I don’t want a memory with her. I want YOU, I need you and I love you.”

“That’s a mouth full…uhm…maybe we should talk about our future when I’m home. And don’t let that poor girl abort a child, it’s a child for god’s sake….and I love you to, I would love to become your wife but I get the feeling your only asking me because of what happened with her.” I want to make myself believe that he really wants to be with me forever, but there is something wrong. That something is me, I need to tell him the real reason that accident happened, but I can’t I’m afraid.

“I am not. I really love you. I’ll think about the whole Mary problem, again. But for now lets enjoy the fact that I’m talking to you in over six months” He says giving that gorgeous smile of his again.

A beautiful young nurse walks in, she first smile at Harry and then says coldly to me. “I’m here to take your blood” I’ve never really been afraid of needles so its no problem to me, her attitudes the problem. I’ll just have to ignore it, because I don’t have the energy in me for another fight. A few minutes in complete silence and she’s done. I smile but don’t receive one back. That’s the first person that hasn’t smiled to me. She takes the blood and leaves.

“What a bitch” I say to Harry, who is still watching her leave.

“She’s kinda hot”

“What?!” I scream, I thought I didn’t have energy…

“I’m kidding…” He laughs. “Nobody has a sexier body than you” I giggle.
