I laid on the tiny hospital bed while thinking about Louis. I was so happy to see him earlier. But he had to go.Somebody's got to keep the company running, he said he'd come back tonight though.I turned onto my side and thought of everything that's happened to me. Memories of Luciano kicking me in my abdomen came rushing through my head. He even made me strip in front of him and his disgusting men. While he touched me with his filthy hands.A single tear rolled down my cheek as I laid there drowning in my thoughts. I begged them to show me mercy but they refused to. They wanted me dead.I'll die a thousand times if it means I'll be with Louis. I heard a knock coming from the door which interupted my thoughts so I quickly wiped the tears from my face."Bunny?" I heard Dom's voice and I smiled broadly before sitting upright. "I come bearing gifts." He said and I giggled a little.After he entered the room Parker, River, Matt and Kaylia walked in behind him. I gasped in shock when I s
Louis' POV...After Joan fell asleep I left the hospital. I placed two of my best men at her door to protect her. I jumped into my black SUV and drove down to the location that Jim sent me. I pulled up at the side of the road where he was waiting for me. I climbed out of my car and walked to where he was standing."You're late." He said briefly."I had errands to run, places to be." I replied shortly and he frowned when he looked at me."How is she?" He asked and I raised a single eyebrow at him."She's fine." I replied blankly. "How's your son?" "He's getting better. He won't be able to walk for a while but he'll be fine." He said and my eyebrows shot up in amusement."Why are we here?" I asked and Jim pointed at something in the distance. How am I supposed to see when it's dark?"They're here." He said with a smile on his face. "Looks like we're crashing a party tonight." He said and I smirked."That sounds astonishing." I replied sarcastically and he chuckled. "Aren't we going u
Louis stumbled into the room and I placed my shaking hand on my mouth."What happened?" He asked and my eyes welled up with tears."Will you tell him? Or should I?" Doctor Gilbert asked with one of her eyebrows raised at me."It was nothing, Louis. I just got a little nauseas." I explained to him and he let out a breath of relief."And you're okay, now?" He asked and I nodded. It's funny that he hasn't figured out what I was hiding from him.He's the most powerful man I know and yet he hasn't used his power to find out my secret."You should go home and rest. They're discharging me tomorrow. Apparently somebody has hired a nurse for me." I said while looking at him with one eyebrow lifted. Doctor Gilbert quietly left the room."This isn't your scenery, dolcezza. You should be home with me." He said and I smiled while looking into his eyes."Wait do you mean-""Yes, I want you to move in with me." He said and my mouth opened by itself. Am I hearing this correctly? "Are you sure?" I as
Later that afternoon Louis came to pick me up. He drove me home and I went straight up to our room. He could tell that something was wrong because I was quiet, he asked me about it but I just told him that I was tired and still in pain. He then told me that he was going to spend the rest of the day with me, which instantly made me smile."How are you feeling?" Louis asked out of the blue."Better." I lied but I plastered a smile on my face. Louis hovered over my body as I laid on my back. He brushed my hair out of my face before he placed a soft kiss on my lips.He placed feathery kisses on the bandage covering the cut on my neck. I smiled as he did so, I brushed his hair with my fingers while looking at him.His perfectly sculpted jaw was in line with every single feature on his face. And his stormy blue eyes are the windows to my soul.I placed a kiss on his soft pink lips before pulling back to look at him again. "I fucking want you so bad right now." Louis said while placing ki
Louis' POV..."I have cancer." Joan blurted out and I searched her face for a sign that she was lying."What?" I asked and she started crying. "It's terminal." She said and her voice cracked slightly. "What do you mean it's terminal?" I asked and her shoulders slumped. "I'm dying." She cried in her hands and I frowned deeply."No you're not. We'll get the best doctors in the world. I can fix this." I told her but she shook her head at me."The treatments will help but it won't remove the cancer." She replied silently and my eyes widened at her words."So you just gave up? Without even telling me? You just accepted it?" I asked her and she just looked at me with red eyes. "I'm in pain, Louis. I don't wanna feel like this anymore." She cried sadly. "You're selfish, Joan." I said before getting out of bed."Louis don't leave." She cried after me. But I ignored her and left the room.I grabbed my keys from off the counter and started driving down the street. I don't know where I'm g
"She's awake now." Doctor Gilbert said as her hand rested on my shoulder. "I'll take you to her." She said so I followed her."How long does she have?" I asked and the doctor briefly closed her eyes."Any day now. It's a miracle that she's still alive at this point." She said softly."I thought she had longer." I said in confusion."She hides her pain very well. The cancer has spread to almost every organ in her body." The doctor explained. "I don't think she'll make it through the night." Everything stopped around me and I could hear myself breathing. My eyes was wide in shock and a tear slipped from my eye. This can't be it."Can I see her?" I asked and the doctor nodded.I opened the door and spotted Joan's tiny body curled up under a blanket. I went to sit next to her and she painfully turned her head to watch me."Thank you for last night." She said softly. "I got you something." She said with a smile on her face. "I left it in your top drawer." She said weakly.I couldn't resp
Secret- Something that is kept or meant to be kept unknown or unseen by others.I paced about in the kitchen, nervously rubbing my sweaty palms together. I heard the front door creak open, I ran a shivering hand through my thick brown locks before I turned around on my heels.I watched as my angry boss came walking towards me, I know he's either gonna fire me or kill me. Who knows he might do both. I noticed his ticking jaw so I took a step back.His chest was heaving up and down and the vein on his forehead was popping out. I felt like crying and screaming at the same time. He stopped when he was in front of me and I sucked in a deep breath."What the fuck was that Gibbs?" He asked harshly and I cowered backwards. "You ruined the entire mission! Do you realise you almost blew your cover?" He asked and I whimpered. "Answer me!" He growled at me.I was too scared to open my mouth so I just stood there dumbfounded."Gibbs if you don't fucking answer me right now, I'm gonna fucking put a
I started hyperventilating, my palms were sweaty again so I squeezed my eyes shut when I saw him raise his hand at me.I heard two loud shots going off so I decidedly kept my eyes closed. I heard another shot go off before footsteps approached me."Get him out of here." I heard Mr Valentino's voice boom off the walls. It was as if I was suffocating until I heard him speak, I finally caught my breath with a loud gasp."Gibbs?" I heard someone call me but I was lost in a trance. "Joan?" The voice came again. My eyes fluttered open and I saw Mr Valentino looking down at me, that voice was too gentle to belong to him. "Goddammit Gibbs." He said when I fainted slightly in his arms."Gibbs." I heard Mr Valentino breathe out. I opened my eyes and I saw Mr Garcia being dragged out of his house. "You alright?" He asked and I nodded. "Did you get the file?" "Yes sir." I replied blankly."Good girl." He said in a husky tone causing a wave of heat to spread throughout my entire body. My biggest
