I snort before noticing her downing shot after shot out of the corner of my eye, and I message back,
Me—definitely not pregnant; she just downed a few shots.
More texts come in,
Gunner – bitch, is trying to trap him.
Hawk – we need to look into trying to get rid of her; she's trouble waiting to happen.
I nod at Hawk's message because it’s true—she's obsessed with Flame. It didn't help; she was his main girl, a bit like Clitter with me.
We brothers are fucking stupid.
Dagger – Is it bad that I laughed at this?
I chuckle and shake my head, but full-blown laugh at the next message,
Ink—oh no, I laughed so hard I had coffee come out of my nose.
The last text, though, yeah,
Flame – you fuckers are assholes.
Flame – and I haven't fucked her in a year, so fuck you fuckers.
Laughter bursts free from my chest, and I shake my head before I take a deep breath. I look at the time; it's been twenty minutes since Doc forced me away from Meghan, telling me I had to give her an hour's peace.
I nod. Yep, that's long enough. I'll just tell Doc I waited the full hour; he'll never know.
I get up and walk to the medical room, but come to a stop, seeing her bed empty and her IV sitting on it.
Shit,
I hear a shower running, and I swallow.
Is she finally back?
I quickly rush over to the door and open it to hear her mumbling over and over.
"Please, please, go away, please."
Realization hits; she can see his ghost; it's haunting her. That's how I felt after my first kill; fuck, I should have realized she'd be seeing him everywhere.
I rush over to the shower stall and climb in, clothes and all, including my cut, before I gently lift her up.
She starts to struggle: "No, please, please. I'm dirty, I'm full of blood, and I need to be clean. Please, please."
Fuck.
I quickly sit her on the counter and cup her face as Mel and Doc rush in, their eyes wide.
I lean forward and gently rub my nose against hers as she squeezes her eyes shut.
"Look at me, Wildcat."
She shakes her head, and I move my right hand, cupping the back of her neck while my left cups her chin, my thumb stroking her neck.
"Open your eyes, Meghan."
