Conquering Alexandria(6)

“Actually, I came to take my girl here to lunch, but she was not able to leave.”

“Yes, that is true. I will need her help with the procedure, so perhaps you can take her to dinner instead?”

“Sounds good, doc. Baby, I will see you later.” He kissed her right on her pretty little mouth. I wanted to deck the fuck. The doctor chuckled as he walked back to his office. So he thought that shit was funny… prick.

I was taken into the back room where it would be done. The doctor instructed Alexandria to get me relaxed and seated in the chair. Once that was done, he ordered her to lock the front door so there would be no disturbances.

“Mr. McCain, I know a pissing contest when I see one. While she is gone, I wanted to tell you that I don’t require her assistance, but I could tell you wanted him out of here without her leaving with him. I know the feeling. I was once in your shoes, so calm down there, young man. He looks like an ass anyway.”

I laughed a little. Okay, so I wasn’t the only one who thought he was a douche. “We met on Tuesday, and I was surprised to see her working here. Her boyfriend had to show up today. I think I’m being tortured. I don’t want the last image I have of her to be of them kissing.”

“Thanks for the vote of confidence, but it won’t be.” he replied. The doctor called out into the hallway. “Miss Davis, can you come in here?”

“Sorry, sir. The phone was ringing, so I picked it up.” She rushed into the room looking anxious.

“Anything important?”

“No. Just someone needing to schedule a visit.”

“Okay, can you place the vest on Mr. McCain here? I want you to get some experience with the processes.” He winked at me the minute her back was turned. I liked him a lot. Now if he got my eyes working great, I might have to send him a present.

“Okay,” she said warily, as though she was afraid to come near. She laid it on my chest, and I felt her hands touch my shoulders. I looked directly in her eyes. “Alexandria, you are beautiful, and I want you to know that my eyesight isn’t that bad. You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen now, and will be after. By the way, that blush is so hot.”

It made her redder, and I smiled as she smacked my shoulder and said, “We’ll see.”

She left the room as the procedure began, and it wasn’t half an hour before I was sitting up and it was all done.

My vision was already better. “Tell me, Max, how is your vision?”

“It has improved immensely. I need to see her.”

“Ha. I assure you she is still beautiful, but you will need to wear your glasses for the next few days because you will have moments where your vision will blur.”

“Thanks. Now, can I see her?” We walked to the front, and there was my pretty girl. Damn, she was better looking than I expected. It was like looking at an HD version of a classic. I thought she was beautiful before the surgery, but now she was a goddess. I didn’t think one night was going to be enough.

“Max, how are you feeling?” She looked up at me with those amazing hazel eyes that shined brightly, and I wanted to stare at them for hours. I was a goner.

“I feel well, and my vision has improved greatly. By the way, you are ten times more beautiful than I thought you were before the improvement to my eyesight. When you get rid of the loser boyfriend, give me a call, and Alexandria, do it soon.” I handed her my card. She already had my information; I just needed an excuse to caress her hand. Marcus met me with my glasses; I put them on and turned to her. Her jaw dropped, and all my self-consciousness kicked in and I took them off.

“Why did you take them off? You look hot with the glasses on,” she said in frustration.

I smiled at her. “You like them, baby? If you think I look hot, I’d wear them just for you.”

She blushed. “I said that out loud?” she murmured as the color ran from her face.

“Alexandria, you are welcome to tell me how you feel all the time because, gorgeous, I want to know,” I said as I reached over and caressed her face, running my index finger along her jaw. She shivered, and I knew it wouldn’t be long until she was mine.

I walked out the door without looking back. There was no way in hell I was going to leave if I looked at her again. I didn’t really know why I had to leave. I had nowhere pressing to be, but she had a boyfriend, and I still had some sense of morality. Well—barely. If she didn’t ditch him soon, all bets were off.

I called my mother when I got home and told her that I was nearly a hundred percent. The woman was ecstatic and would be over later today. My parents wanted to celebrate my vision returning back to normal. It had been ten years of blurred sight, some days worse than others.
