Conflicting Thoughts

Eve's POVI roll over and groan. The sun is too damn bright today! My head is pounding, and I think I'm going to vomit. When the hell did I get the freaking flu? I'm not even sure that's what I've got! All I know is I feel abso-fucking-lutely miserable!I play the scene from yesterday in my head for the millionth time.First off he had me pressed up against his door like I actually belonged to him. Kissing me like I was already his. He was just making sure I knew the fact."I've told you before Eve... You are mine!" Those words had freaking ruined me! I swear I lost my breath... and my sanity just looking up into his ice blue eyes. He looked like he meant every damn word before he kissed me.That had honestly been the first time I'd ever heard him say that. I'm starting to wonder if I'm the only one he's claimed though. Was he just grabbing all the cute nurses and kissing them because he was lonely?Because even though he kissed me like he needed me to breathe, he showed up at the bar

Friends

But just remember the feel of his lips on mine, the way he had me pressed up against him... I wanted him to touch me... I wanted so much more and I fucking know it's wrong!I'm sure he kept his wife more than satisfied. They had been in love... what more could any woman ask for?The way he kissed me yesterday was like a man starved of affection. Like he'd been drowning in his own darkness and I was his lighthouse calling him to safety.And I wanted to be! God, I wanted to be what he wants. Where he finds safety and love... I wanted like hell to kiss the darkness from his soul.That's just stupid though. Because obviously I wasn't important to him. He had already moved on with someone else before I could get my head on straight.I close my eyes, hoping my head stops spinning for a bit, but it doesn't help. I didn't realize you could get dizzy like this? Is this vertigo? I've studied the concept, but never experienced it before. Whatever the hell I've got? I fucking hate it.I'm sick...

Following Orders

I sigh heavily as I try to relax my aching body. For a moment I wonder where the hell this illness came from. It's not like Jenny was sick last night. She sounded fine just now... I wonder if Jeff is sick?Maybe someone should check on him too?I manage to slip into a light sleep. But my mind keeps playing over the kiss in the office. And then he pushes me away for some woman. I watch as he attacks her with his mouth, telling her how much he wants her... and I'm bawling on the floor, yelling at my fucking boss! Then I was suddenly frozen in a block of ice before I woke up."What the hell was that?" I pant before forcing myself to get some more sleep. But that whole damn dream had me anxious, even in my sleep.I'm startled awake by my phone, once again buzzing on my nightstand. It's too damn loud! I need to shut it off before my ears bleed.My bleary eyes can't actually make out the contact. "Hello?""Where the hell are you?" Luke's voice echos through my head."What the hell are you ta

When Did She Get Sick?

Luke's POVFuck! I don't know what I'm doing right now! There really has to be something wrong with me! I have no idea when I actually became a fucking stalker!Julia would be so damn disappointed in me. And even the thought of her chastising me still doesn't seem to change a damn thing! Normally just picturing her face has me changing my mind about anything! And I know damn well she would not approve of my behavior right now.The problem is, she isn't here anymore to yell at me. She left me, and now I'm all alone, stalking an innocent girl. Well, not so innocent. She knows she gets under my skin. And she does it often!And why am I so fucking obsessed with her? She's just a girl! I see a thousand girls on any given day, in and out of the hospital. Why the hell is this one so fucking important?I need to get her out of my head before I do something I can't take back. Something dangerous and possessive. I know fucking well I should just leave her alone! And yet I find myself doing stup

She Needs To Get Better

When she first showed up at the bar, she also looked fine, chatting away with Jenny... And then Jeff showed up. He started touching her and... kissing her. Maybe he was sick and he passed it onto her unknowingly?I run my fingers through my messy hair and pace in front of her window. I want to fucking crawl inside and check out what is wrong with her. I want to demand to know what happened to make her sick. She has to know something, right?Maybe she doesn't even know. Maybe she got sick while she was sleeping, or she had just gotten sick when she came home... So many possibilities. And yet, she still should've fucking called me!Was it something she caught from the hospital? I've been with almost every damn person she has, and I'm fine! The only thing that changed was she was with Jenny and Jeff at the bar, and I was with some woman. I didn't even get her name.I shake my head in disgust. That's stupid! Why the hell would I ask for her name when she was just an excuse to make Eve jea

Signs and Symptoms

My heart pounds at each ring she doesn't pick up. Why isn't she picking up? Is she still asleep? Is she fucking ignoring my calls now?“Hello?” She asks groggily. She doesn't even sound good over the phone!“Where the hell are you?” I ask, like I fucking don't know. Why did I even ask that question? I know today is her day off. She had better be at home!“What the hell are you talking about?” She mumbles. “It’s my fucking day off,” I groan in pain.“Evelyn? Are you okay?” I demand. That was rhetorical. I already know she's sick, I just want to know if she'd be honest with me.“I dunno... I’m feeling kinda....”“Shit!” I mumble under my breath. She can't pass out now! I need to get her here as soon as possible so I can figure out what is wrong with her! “Get dressed. There’s a car waiting for you!”“Huh?”“Get dressed Evelyn, unless you want to show up at my place in your underwear!” I smirk, remembering her cute little top and everything I could see under it. I wouldn't mind, but I'm s

Worried

Eve's POVI have no idea what the hell we are arguing about. One minute I'm at home in my bed, sick as a fucking do, sleeping.. well, not soundly. But at least I was able to close my eyes.The next thing I know, he's waking me up demanding I come to his house! Like, what the hell! I'm sick! And he didn't even care! He had his driver take me to his place anyway.Then when I show up at his house, he does the whole doctor thing, and gives me a pain reliever, which thankfully brought down my fever a little bit, and told me to go to sleep.Then he woke me up again and gave me soup! (Okay, that was actually really sweet of him. He even helped me sit up against his body so I wouldn't choke to death.) He made sure I drank some water, which again. Okay, I've been feeling a little dehydrated, so again that was very thoughtful of my doctor.But then he was demanding to know why the hell I didn't call him when I got sick! It's not like I meant to keep it from him. If I was still sick in a couple

Ridiculous Accusations

I'll deal with that later.I hear him digging around in his bag for something, before slamming it on the night stand. I blink my eyes open as he opens a bottle of medicine."Wait right here!" He instructs me, like I actually have the energy to get up out of this bed and go explore his house or something.And then he rushes away. I watch his retreating form until my eyes slip shut once more. I just need a few minutes of...He isn't gone long, but I think I'd already fallen asleep when he comes back with an open bottle of water for me. He places a cold cloth on my forehead, and amazingly it feels really nice."Drink this whole thing, Eve. You're already dehydrated," he states, helping me sit up.I grab the pills from his hand and toss them back, before downing the whole bottle. I'm surprised I could do it all in one go. I guess I was thirstier than I imagined."Good girl," he coos, smoothing my sticky hair once again. "Sleep Evelyn. I'll be back later," he instructs.He doesn't have to

A Date

"I fucking saw the bastard slip something into your glass last night!" He growls, running a frustrated hand through his messy hair."And when did you see this?" I challenged. How the hell could he see anything last night? He was too damn busy with mystery lady from the bar!"When I was fucking kissing the woman at the bar!" he admits, even though he looks like he just realized what he said and shuts his mouth."And why would you be watching me while you were kissing another woman?" I demand. Now I really deserve to know his answer. If he's making stupid accusations, I deserve to know the truth!I watch as he freezes and looks away from me, cursing under his breath, running his hand along the scruff of his jaw like he could somehow unsay the words he just spilled out."Come to think of it, Luke, why the hell were you even kissing her? Why did you show up at the bar? And why did-" I shut my mouth, trying to keep the trembling from my lips. This is upsetting me more than I like to admit,

This Was A Mistake

Luke's POVWhy the hell did I do that? I know what I fucking did. I made everything absolutely worse! I don't even know why the hell I did it! I don't want this! It was a fucking mistake, and now everyone is going to know it.For the past few days, I've been going over the same fucking question! I kept Eve in my guest room for two full days before she decided she couldn't take it anymore and had Rogers take her home.Her fever has gone down, but she's still complaining of nausea and dizziness. I'm fucking worried about her, and now she hates me! She kept getting excited updates from her friend Fallon, whom I've yet to meet.What the hell was I even thinking? I never go to the damn ball, and if I had it certainly wouldn't be with a woman! I'd fucking go alone! Why the hell would I spend money on Le Blanc's charity when I've got my own to take care of?True, I haven't gone to it in 3 years, but it's still there. I have Miller put it on for me in honor of my wife and son. It's normally v
