Lucy's POV

As soon as I park my car safely by the road, I jump out of it and hurry towards where the two vehicles had run off the road, my heart in my mouth, and my whole body shaking uncontrollably.

Someone just tried to kill me, but Nathan somehow appeared out of the blue and put himself in harm's way to save me. Why on earth would anyone try to kill me?

I haven't a single clue, but that is not important right now. What is important is that I find Nathan, and that I find him alive.

As I run across the road, I dial 911 and provide them with all the information they ask for, urging them to hurry, because I don’t know what state Nathan could be in.

I couldn’t care less about the other driver, the asshole who tried to run me off the road. All I care about is Nathan and that he is alive.

If only I hadn't let my anger get the better of me. Suddenly, all my anger at him seems so pointless. If Nathan dies, my heart would shatter into a million pieces.

He can't die when I’m mad at him, didn

  • Goodbye Ex, Go to Hell!   Professions

    “Lucy, I want you to know that Diane isn’t going to come between us. The second I'm out of here, I'm going to get a restraining order on her. Hell, I'll probably get one right here in the hospital bed. Also, I have every intention of taking a paternity test once she gives birth. I hope fervently that the baby isn’t mine, because I don’t want to be punished for something I can't remember doing, but …”“Oh, you don’t have to worry about any of that. The baby isn’t yours.” I inform him, smiling happily.No one is happier about the fact that Nathan isn’t the father of Diane’s baby than I am. I can’t imagine having to have some form of connection to her for several years to come.“What are you talking about?” Nathan asks me, perplexed.“Like I told you earlier, a lot has happened since you were in a coma. One of the things that gives me a lot of joy is that Diane is in jail for murder. I mean, the murder part doesn't give me joy ... poor guy, but ...”“Excuse me?”“Oh, yes. Remember that

  • Goodbye Ex, Go to Hell!   More revelations

    Lucy’s POVThe words hang heavily in between us for several seconds after I say them. A slight tightening of Nathan’s arm around me and his sharp intake of breath are the only indications that he heard what I said.I hold my breath and wait for him to say something … anything. However, he remains silent for so long that I begin to think that he’s not going to react. Just as I open my mouth to talk again, he speaks.“You were coming to tell me that you were carrying our baby. You’re pregnant …” It’s not a question.“Yes, I was.""Those bastards ... those bastards nearly killed you and our baby," He says with barely restrained fury."They didn't succeed, all thanks to you. You protected us.""I guess I did. We're having a baby ..."Maybe it’s because of the quiet awe and joy I can hear in that sentence, but I know that he's pleased with the news of the baby, just as I had known he would be. Still, it doesn't hurt to ask him, so I do just that."You're happy about that, aren't you? I mea

  • Goodbye Ex, Go to Hell!   Explanations

    Lucy’s POV“Of course, I followed you, Lucy. There was no way I would have let you leave by yourself at that time of the day, knowing you were not in a good mood and that you were also exhausted. That night, or early morning, rather, you had a head start, and since I knew that you were mad at me and wanted me nowhere around you, I drove a respectable distance away after I caught up with you.It didn't take long before I noticed the car. It was easy to notice it following you because you were driving slowly, or at least I suspected that it was following you.However, I soon decided that I was overthinking. After all, this is a very safe city, and besides, the people driving that car were probably just as tired as you and I were, seeing how early it was, so they weren’t taking any chances by driving fast or recklessly.Big mistake. I should have trusted my instincts and called the police. It wasn’t until they tried to run you off the road that I understood what was happening.I’ll have

  • Goodbye Ex, Go to Hell!   Past events

    Lucy’s POVNathan's sitting up in bed and sipping from a cup of water with a straw when I come in. My heart skips a beat at the sight of him.Despite all that his body has gone through in the past month, he’s still the most handsome man I’ve ever laid my eyes on.All I want to do is to fly into his arms and remain there for as long as humanly possible, but I restrain myself and sit demurely in the chair beside his bed.“Hello, Nathan. How are you feeling?” I ask him.“As well as can be under the circumstances, I suppose. You’ve been avoiding me.” He accuses me, taking me aback.“Um, no … no, I haven’t.”“But you have. I’ve been watching you since I regained consciousness. You’ve hardly looked at me in the eyes, and you're always in a hurry to leave. You're still mad at me.” He says.“I … I …” I trail off, not knowing what to say, because he’s somewhat correct, about me avoiding him, not that I'm mad at him.“You look tired. They say you’ve been here with me every day since it happened

  • Goodbye Ex, Go to Hell!   Recovery

    Lucy’s POVOne month laterThe days blend into each other, and each day, I sit beside Nathan in his hospital bed, waiting for him to open his eyes, but he remains blissfully unconscious.He hasn’t opened his eyes since that awful day when he saved me from being run off the road. The doctors have done all they can for him, and his condition is more or less stable.However, I live in daily fear of him suddenly dying, because, as the doctors informed his family and me, the chances of him regaining consciousness are fifty-fifty.A fifty percent chance that Nathan might never regain consciousness is an awful lot, so I'm right to be worried.Besides, I have no idea how badly his head injury may have affected him, or if he's going to have any deficits as a result, so I'm waiting, hoping, and praying that he'll come out of his coma unscathed.A lot has happened in the one month since the accident, or to put it more precisely, the attempted murder, and as each day passes, more unbelievable new

    Lucy’s POVAt first, relief fills my entire body until I realize that it isn’t the first responders who have arrived. This new voice is coming from the car that tried to run me off the road.So Melissa wasn't the only person in that car. She seems just as startled to hear the voice as I am, and her head automatically whips around in the direction of the voice.Seeing my chance, I immediately grab it, even though the gun is still pointed at me. I rush forward as fast as I can to try and wrestle the gun from her, but I'm not fast enough.Her head whips back to face me just as I get close to her, and she fires the gun. Thankfully, the bullet doesn't hit me, but it is so close to doing so that I hear it whiz past my ear.Stunned and frightened, I nearly freeze, but my sense of preservation and survival is greater, so I continue to charge at her, while she prepares to fire a second shot.Three or four seconds later, I reach her and grab the gun, forcing her to direct it away from me, even
