Chapter 36
Ellie
I didn't see what happened coming. It's been a hectic couple of weeks, and by that I mean Max has been through a lot. On the day I was called by Doctor Raphael to come through to the hospital my heart was in my throat. I was scared because I knew he didn't have anything good to tell me judging by the conversation we had before over the phone. When we arrived I was asked to go through to Doctor Raphael Blackwell's office . Max was told to wait outside and he didn't mind.
The argument I was having with Raphael was sparked by the birthmark on his wrist . Maxwell had the same birthmark and when I asked him about it he came clean and told me about Meagan. Poor Max went through hell when his step father started beating him up. He had no right to and Max deserved to know who his real father was instead of being treated like crap.
Meagan seemed to be happy with chuck and he hadn'
MaxThe past couple of weeks have not only been hectic on me , but on my family too. I should be consider myself to be a lucky man because I have a girlfriend who is pregnant with multiples, and a brother and sister who love me to bits ,but I have been so cold and distant to everyone around me and even Ell tried to get me to smile by cooking my favorite meal but I didn't even show her any appreciation . My mother isn't going to get her memory back and well my father ...my real father is the only person she remembers and wants to be with . No one else . My siblings were at Dan's tonight giving me much needed time with Ellie. I had just finished a couple of things for work and I was ready to talk to her. I couldn't find her anywhere in the house and I knew I had more than messed up when her car wasn't in the garage. I called my brother to track her down and he gave me an earful on how I've been a Grinch he corrected himself during the c
Chapter 38EllieI woke up Saturday morning to find my boyfriend sleeping on my couch in the main bedroom . For a man who was deeply troubled he was sleeping soundly which was a relief because he hadn't been sleeping well for the past couple of weeks. I was surprised to find him in my room ,and I had a feeling he asked his brother to track me down. As soon as I made my bed , made sure Max was warm , cleaned up and made him coffee in a travel mug , I received a text from Cleopatra asking me to come through to her house. I trust Cleo she has been through the same flames I have faced and she is very easy going .When I pulled up to her house she let me in and I was welcomed by her two year old who was running towards me calling my name... She had told me that Angelo went shopping with Pia because Pio was just not budging when he asked him if he wanted to go to the shops . He simply stuck out his tongue and ran to Cleo
Song - Craig David - you don't miss the waterMaxI can't keep anything secret from Ell. She has been the only person who has always supported me regardless of how badly I messed up. Nicolai threatened me the day before yesterday. The money I owed was to also cover an incident that had happened with Garry. I should have known better than to go along with anything he suggested. We were both fired because we were found out . Maria was the chairman's daughter and she told her father everything and the truth about her abortion. It was a joint decision and Tim understood that. The club had a no doping policy ,and any match fixing in any way or form. Garry was being investigated for the latter and we both were found guilty for using gym candy . The Club let us both go and the DC banned us from anything to do with the sport or club, on condition that the story doesn't get out. We even signed an NDA and finned. That was why it wa
EllieI have always had the fear getting hurt and no one being there to help me get up or fix me up after I have fallen . I have a stubborn and impulsive streak, I have always had it from when I was a kid. I was once told not to get back on my BMX bicycle after I had fallen down repeatedly and never listened. The only way to learn is by messing up. I learned that when I was taught how to cook and bake by my mother ,I learned that when I sustained a injuries that resulted in scars from learning how to ride a bicycle after being used to a tricycle , I learned that when I failed sub -editing class in college in the first term when I submitted a hand written , not typed assignment that was torn right in front of the whole class after my laptop was stolen from me three days earlier when I got mugged and saved by Daniel.When he found out what had happened;he bought me a notebook as an early birthday present . He even wen
Chapter 41MaxWhen I tried to call Ellie , the call was sent to voicemail . I dropped everything grabbed the keys to Ellie's Jeep and took the rout that was sent to me via her location and when I tried to take a short cut I got stuck in traffic , in a panicked state of mind I called Salvatore , who knew how to fly a chopper and had one . He told me he that his father had taken it but he would drive to where Ellie was . While I was trying to get to Ellie ,a Ducati panigale sped through the traffic towards the direction of the location I was headed to . Salvatore was already on his way and he said he would meet me there. As I was approaching the location , the fire brigade , two ambulances sped passed me and when I heard a chopper I knew they were headed to where Ellie was . What was meant a fifteen minute drive took me twenty minuets . I spotted Salvatore's car and Daniel entering another chopper . I ran to the scen
Chapter 42EllieSeven days LaterYou never realize how bad something is until you wake up. I have never liked hospitals but they seem to like me . Even when I went to surprise Daniel with lunch or a late dinner I had to condition myself. He knew that I didn't like them , but he had shown appreciation for the effort I always took. Our relationship was and still is a good one . I knew he loved Amy and he knew that I loved Maxwell and I was still not over him . We pretended to be serious because we knew the truth and Salvatore his own brother thought that we were going to get married at some stage. We had a physical relationship and a friendship that was undeniably strong and special. I am forever blessed to have him as a friend .My body was slowly switching on and I was in pain. My abdomen hurt like hell and I felt groggy. I was breathing on my own which was a good sign ... I felt warm and all my senses were heigh
Chapter 43MaxKillian terrible timing . When he walked in ; I was asking Ell to marry me . He just walked in and did what he had to do. I now get what Eleanor meant about his two sides. As soon as he was done checking Ell he briefed us on everything that had happened with regards to losing our babies and the extent of her injuries. When Ell asked about Daniel , Killian looked visibly annoyed and to an extent I saw a flash of jealousy pass through his eyes. He had told her that he was okay and Amy was with him taking care of everything and that she can call him and ask him how he is because he was a mess when he was sent home . Killian told us that he would give us the release papers tomorrow morning , and that Ell needed to be kept for overnight observation. Killian clearly didn’t like my baby love , and for a guy who was accommodating and sweet towards me , he was being
Chapter 443 months laterEllieThe hardest part about making a decision that feels right in your gut and in your heart is telling the person who actually thought that they had a shot at a relationship with you that they are being benched again.I don't like being torn between two guys and not knowing how I feel . I have two amazing guys who want to be a permanent part of my world ,but I can't seem to make a choice and it's not only unfair to them , but it's also unfair to the women that want to be with them too . I don't want to compare them .Daniel is a Virgo and the only feelings I've had for him are that of a brother . What we did on the side was just an agreement . We have been friends for years and there were many reasons as to why I just didn't want to cross the friendship line . I've known for the longest of times that he was part of the Mafia and even though his father has always been nice to me and he isn't the monster
