CHAPTER 07

CHRIS POV:-

After talking to Dr Dusk. I talked to the others. I told them everything Dr Dusk had told me. We all decided to make happy talks around her. Tell her everything positive happened in last 10 months, and skip all the negative details.

Chris:. Hey Cassie. How are you? They found your lucky charm. I had to beg to the officer to get it back.

I just wanted to do something to make her wake up and see how much everyone is worried about her. I really couldn't see her like that. I just wanted her to open her beautiful eyes.

         --------------------------------

HENDRICK BLACK'S POV:-

Quinn: Sir!

Hendrick Black: Yes Quinn. Now what?

Quinn: Sir I have a bad news for you.

Hendrick Black: Just say it already.

Quinn: Sir FBI have found her.

Hendrick Black: What? When?

Quinn: 8 hours ago sir.

Hendrick Black:  And you're telling me that now?

Quinn: Sir I just came to know a few minutes ago and I came straight to you.

Hendrick Black: Just get out.

How could that happened, she was well hidden. No one could find her unless someone had tipped off. I was just thinking about the next time I would meet her. I don't know why but Every time she was on my mercy, it brought me peace. I don't know why her sweet face brought peace to me every single time. I called my PA back in my office.

Quinn: May I come in sir?

Hendrick Black: Yes! Did you find anymore details?

Quinn: Yes sir! She's in the hospital. She slipped in to coma. Her doctor strictly told everyone not to discuss any stressful details in front of her.

Hendrick Black: Very well. That's why I can't even imagine to fire you. Without me saying a word, you always know what you have to do.

Quinn:  Anything for you sir. I'm here and happy to serve you.

Hendrick Black: Email me all the other details.

Quinn: Yes sir but first, we need to take care of the FBI.

Hendrick Black: Don't worry. I have that in my pocket.

After I dismissed Quinn, I sat alone in my office. Thinking,

Hendrick Black: (What can be more stressful for her than me. I know, all I have to do is to show up my face and make her hear my voice. It will be end of there life. I want her for myself. How could she leave me? If she won't be mine then I'll kill her. She belongs to me and me only. I'll kill her then I'll kill myself. Because, I can't imagine to live my life without her. I have fallen for her long time ago. And I am crazy and possessive for her.) I thought.

In an hour I walked in the hospital, knowing her room and details.

Hendrick Black: Hello everyone.

I saw Christopher's eyes, filled with anger the moment he saw me.

Christopher: Why are you here?

Hendrick Black: Come on Christopher. I'm here to visit her, that's all.

Christopher: We don't need you here. So get your ass out of here.

I could see her pulse rising. She could sense me here. And she definitely didn't like that. So far my plan was working. I pushed pass Christopher to touch her. My touch could make more damage, but to be honest I wanted to touch her one last time.

Hendrick Black: You can't kick me out Christopher, you're not her family as she doesn't have any. I can see you're the only one here.

Christopher: I said leave and don't you dare touch her.

Hendrick Black: Why are you behaving like a child claiming for his toy.

Christopher: She's not a toy, she's a human being and she doesn't want you here either.

Hendrick Black: How do you know that. Did she whisper in your ear?Or told you in your dreams?

Christopher: Don't test my temper. Get the hell out of here.

Hendrick Black: I won't. Not until you answer my question. I can see it in your eyes Christopher, you're in love with her, aren't you?

Christopher: None of your business. Get Out.

Hendrick Black: That's never gonna happened Christopher, SHE'S MINE.

I yelled the last sentence and that's all I had to say. We heard the warning beep and then, flat lines. My plan actually worked. Well it always works. She's no more. So I left. Why do I need to stay. Curse him, he never even let me get close to her. Protective asshole. But I did what I wanted. I wanted to see her flat lines. I stepped out of the hospital, humming my favorite love song. The one I heard when I saw her the very first time 2 years ago. She's gone. Now she belongs to nobody.

Hendrick Black: See you in heaven my love...

            ------------------------

CHRIS' POV:.

He tried to touch her, I slapped his hand away. Pushed him back. I could hear her pulse getting lower and lower by every passing second. I tried to get him out but he wasn't moving. Then he said something and my heart almost stopped.

Hendrick Black: That's never gonna happened Christopher. SHE'S MINE.

Suddenly a smirk appeared on his face, like he had won a game. He exited the room. Just then I saw the flat lines on the monitor. Doctor and nurses bragged in to the room and I started praying for her life.

Doctor: One tow three clear

BEEP ------ flat lines

Nurse: Nothing sir.

Doctor: One two three clear 

Nurse: Still nothing sir.

Doctor:  Let's try again. One two three ....

I started praying a little louder.

Chris: Please come back to me Cassie. Please, I beg you. Don't leave me, please I need you Cassie. Please.

Doctor: Clear.

Flat lines --------- BEEP - BEEP - BEEP - BEEP......

Nurse: She's back sir.

My legs work on their own, I got in the room and held her hand. She opened her eyes and looked at me. Just a moment it lasted, and she closed them again. Knowing that she's back, I sighed in relief, my heartbeat and breathing started to become normal again. I thanked God for giving her back to me and promised to protect her till my last breath and last drop of blood. I saw Iris came rushing.

Iris: What happened? What was that jerk doing here? Why was he here? Is there anything left to be done?

Chris: Calm down sister. He was here for something God didn't want.

Iris: What does that suppose to mean?

Chris:  It means that karma is hitting him hard on his ass but he just doesn't understand.

Iris: Can you be a bit clearer?

Chris: He came here, said some things and we lost her.

Iris: What? What are......

Chris: But God has planned something else for her. She came back. She even opened her eyes for a moment.

Iris: I don't see her awake.

Chris: Iris, I said she opened her eyes for a moment.

Iris: So is she back to coma?

Chris: No. Unconscious, but not in coma anymore.

Iris: At least she's not in coma, That's a good sign.

I left Iris with Cassie. I had to go back to work. But all day I was occupied by those lovely eyes I saw again. I wanted the day to be over soon so I could go back to her. Maybe she'll open her eyes again, Or maybe I'll hear her voice. Finally the day was over. I went straight to home. I took a quick shower and change to my casual dark blue jeans and blue t-shirt. I ate my dinner fast, bid good byes to my parents and head straight to the hospital.

Iris: Hey. You're early tonight.

Chris: Yeah. I got free early.

Which was kinda lie. I was excited to see her again.

Iris: Okay. I'm going home then. Scott's already here. Good night Chris.

Chris: Okay good night. I'll see you in the morning.

Iris left and I sat on the couch beside her bed. I held her hand and interlaced my fingers with hers. For a moment I felt like she squeezed my hand. Just for a moment. I smiled, I learned forward, putting my head on the bed. When I drifted off sleep, I didn't know.

Next morning I woke up. It was still early. I could see the sun rise from the window.

I was still holding her hand. I looked at her beautiful yet Innocent face, this close to me. My brain shut down, seeing her beautiful face this close to me. My heart started beating so loud and fast in my chest. In that moment my heart took the full control on my body.

I started leaning in. I leaned until I was able to count every single lash on her eyes. Just then without thinking I kissed her. My heart was beating erratically in my chest. Anyone could see us like that, but in that moment, I didn't care. I didn't know for how long our lips were connected, but it felt heaven. Before I would loose control, I broke the kiss. I could hear her heart too. Beating so fast in her chest. When I got back to my senses. A sudden wave of guilt hit me for doing something like that without her permission. Iris came in the room and I left without saying a single word. More like ran away.

               --------------------------

CASSIE'S POV:-

I was stuck in the nightmare. Hendrick Black was hunting me. I was scared, asking for help. Suddenly I felt someone holding my hand. When I looked, it was Chris. He intertwined him fingers with mine. And all my fears, including Hendrick Black. All of them disappeared. I looked at him with a smile and gave his hand a little squeeze, an assurance that I appreciate his presence. We sat down on the floor. And started our happy chit chat. We kept talking until I saw the dawn. The golden rising sun. It felt like decades. I looked in Chris's eyes and he did something. Something that I've never imagined. Something that shocked me but also healed all the best wounds in my chest. He kissed me. I wanted to move, kiss him back but I just couldn't move. In a few minutes it ended. I didn't want that to end. I was about to tell him that when I realized that he was no longer there. He was gone, where? I didn't know. I was in dark, scared that Hendrick Black will be here any minute to torture me again. I wanted Chris by my side but he was gone, and I didn't know how to call him back. I sat down on the floor, hugged my knees and sobbed for hours.

       A little while later, I don't know how but I was able to see the light again. There was low murmur, but it started to get clearer. Someone's talking to me but who, I was all alone. The voice sounded familiar, then it hit me. I recognized the voice. It was iris's voice.

Iris: Have something on but that's not the big deal. You know, Scott finally has proposed me but didn't give me ring. He said he'll do it when you'll wake up. Now all you have to do is open your eyes. We both are waiting for you to wake up. I told him already, that I want to go to Paris for our honeymoon. He was shocked when I said that but I made it very clear that I will go to Paris and Paris only.

Cassie: I thought you hate Paris.

Iris: Yeah. I did. But the way you always talked about it I.....

She didn't realize that I had replied her. But when she did, she threw herself to me, hugging me on the bed.

Iris: You're awake Cassie. You're back.

I smiled, seeing her face after almost a year. All emotions flowing and I wrapped my hand on her waist too. After a few minutes she backed up and said.

Iris: I need to call the doctor. God you're awake.

She informed the nurse and doctor came rushing to my room.

Doctor: Hello Cassandra. I'm Dr Lara Dusk. How are you feeling now? 

Cassie: Better after seeing her.

Dr Dusk: That's a good sign. Are you hungry. You want something?

I looked at Iris with an innocent smile and she said.

Iris: Oh no! She want hot chocolate with chocolate chip cookies.

Cassie: Yes please.

Dr Dusk: Oh no! You first have to start with light things like fruits and vegetables juices.
