I groaned loudly as I opened my eyes, staring at my sorrow. The bright light was making my eyes water and my head pound with pain. “Where the fuck am I?” I thought so myself, taking a look around the room, noticing the sterile white walls and unfamiliar medical equipment scattered about and my hand attached to an IV drip. Panic began to set in as I realized I had no memory of how I ended up there, and the beeping of machines nearby only added to my confusion. “Fuck...” I crushed, clutching my head as I tried to piece together what had happened. The last thing I remembered was drinking in a bar with my thoughts full of Hailey, but now I was in a hospital room with no recollection of how I got there. The door of the room suddenly swung open, revealing a nurse who rushed in with a concerned look on her face. “You’re awake,” she said softly. “Good morning. You were found unconscious in an alley last night. We need to run some tests to make sure you’re okay,” she said, staring at the cli

I emptied my stomach for the fifth time today, and I still feel sick.“Hailey, maybe I should call the doctor?” Hollis said as he was holding my hair, another nauseous wave hit me. I shook my head weakly, holding his hand tight. “I am fine; it is just because I am pregnant and my body is adjusting to the changes. I’ll be okay; just give me a minute.” I tried to reassure Hollis, but the nausea was overwhelming. After a few minutes, I finally managed to sit up and take a deep breath, hoping the worst had passed. “I think I just need to rest for a bit,” I said, closing my eyes as Hollis carried me inside the room from the bathroom. He laid me down gently on the bed, placing a cool cloth on my forehead. “I’ll stay with you until you feel better,” he whispered softly, his concern evident in his eyes.“Drink some water and try to relax,” he suggested, sitting beside me. I nodded weakly as I placed the cold water of water on my lips and took a few sips, feeling the refreshing liquid soothe m

I stare at Hailey, who is sleeping on the bed peacefully, her chest rising and falling in a steady rhythm. The soft glow of the bedside lamp casts a warm light on her peaceful face, and I can’t help but feel grateful for this moment of tranquility.She has been so stressed the whole day today, and seeing her finally able to relax brings me a sense of relief. I gently brush a strand of hair away from her face, hoping she can feel my love and support, even in her dreams.I sat beside her on the couch, staring at the peaceful expression on her face as I drank a strong liquor to ease my own nerves. The flavor tingles my tongue with a sharp bitterness that matches the ache in my chest.I stare at the glass with liquid swirling inside, wishing I could find the same sense of calm that she had found in her slumber. The weight of the day’s events settles heavily on my shoulders. Seeing Hailey in pain—the trauma that she endured is still fresh in my mind. I take another sip, hoping the alcohol

I stared at Hollis as he was reading the note, trying to gauge his reaction. My body was shaking, scared of what might have been written on it. Was it bad news? Was it a threat? I couldn’t help but feel a sense of fear creeping over me.I know for sure that it was Ben behind all this, and that is what makes me even more anxious. I have to find a way to protect myself and Hollis from whatever danger may be lurking.“What is written on the note?” I asked, with my heart pounding in my chest, my voice quivering with fear.Hollis turns his eyes on me as he crumbles the notes in his fist, clenching his jaw. “Nothing you need to worry about. Just some nonsense from a prankster, nothing to be concerned about,” he replied, but his eyes betrayed his attempt to hide the truth. I knew then that we were in deeper trouble than I had imagined.Is what Hollis is saying true, or is he trying to protect me from something he thinks I can’t handle? No, I don’t think he will deliberately lie to me. I rela

“Please...” I whispered again, my voice barely audible as I buried my face in his chest, pulling myself closer to him, seeking solace in his embrace.Hollis remained silent, his grip on me firm and reassuring, providing the comfort and security I so desperately needed in that moment, but he still didn’t fulfill my need to make love to him. I longed for a deeper connection, a way to express my passion and desire for him beyond just physical touch.I don’t know if I am being selfish or if my feelings are valid, but I couldn’t help but yearn for more from our relationship. I needed to find a way to communicate my desires and fears to Hollis in order to truly feel fulfilled in our connection.I moved my head from his chest and looked into his eyes, searching for a way to convey my innermost thoughts. “Please help me forget my insecurities and fears,” I whispered, hoping he would understand the depth of my emotions. “Please touch me and show me that you care for me in more ways than one.”
