Styx (Walk Of Shame 2nd Generation #2)(13)
Instead, I’m stuck here in this stupid bed and she’s about to leave for the night.
A few minutes later, Meadow enters the room and places her hand on my head, softly caressing it. “Damn, Styx. What the hell happened? Are you alright? Does your ankle hurt bad?”
I smile up at her because all I can think about is pulling her into this bed with me and pleasuring her to help pass the time and make this stay enjoyable. I’m sure my lips on hers could ease a lot of this pain I’m feeling right now.
“Some asshole hit me. I still have use of my important body parts, so I’m good. Want to join me?” I pat the bed beside me.
She smiles, her cheeks slightly pink and starts messing around with the monitor, checking things. “I bet you are. I have a feeling that it takes a lot to keep a guy like you down.”
“So . . . is that a no?” I question, jokingly just to see her smile again.
“If I said yes, I’d lose my job.” She turns to face me and looks me over in my gown. “I have a feeling things wouldn’t be so quiet next to you. Especially when you have easy access to your dick and you look so cute in that gown.” She winks and adds, “I’ll be sure to keep the other nurses away.”
Once I look up and realize what time it is, I raise my brows in question and watch her working as if she’s in no hurry to get out of here. “Didn’t your shift end ten minutes ago?”
“I decided to work a double so I can keep an eye on you and make sure that you get woken up. We’re short staffed and if I leave then you won’t get the attention you need and I want to make sure that you’re well cared for.”
Well, fuck. She’s staying for me. Is it wrong that that makes me so fucking hard?
“And you want to give me that attention?” I tease. “Looks like that ride will have to wait a bit unless you want an audience.”
“You’re a jokester, aren’t you? A jokester and a stalker who likes to capture girl’s chairs to make them stay and talk to them. Good combination.” She smiles and leans down close to my face. “Get some rest. I’ll be close by.”
I smile and attempt to get as comfortable as I can in this shitty bed. I still wish I could get her to join me. Knowing that she’ll be close by will only make me want it more. “That will keep me up all night.”
“I’ll be back. Just get some rest before I break your other ankle. Got it.”
I close my eyes and grin as she walks away, leaving me alone to think of all the ways I can keep her as my own.
Damn this woman has just given me another reason to make me want her even more now . . .
I WAKE UP IN THE middle of the night to Meadow rubbing my head and bringing me some fresh water for when I wake up thirsty.
I feel her lift the blanket to check the swelling on my ankle, but I’m exhausted so I keep my eyes closed and just enjoy having the presence of someone in the room that cares.
She already woke me up an hour ago, so there’s no real need for her to be in here right now. Not yet.
The guys said they’d stop by to see me, but I told them no, that I’d rather them just get some sleep and visit me when they get off work tomorrow night.
I didn’t need them feeling like they had to waste time watching me lay in this stupid bed over a busted ankle.
Meadow thinks that I’m sleeping, but I peek over her way and watch as she takes a seat in the chair and closes her eyes.
She’s exhausted and I can see it taking over her as she rubs her face and yawns repeatedly. Makes me feel guilty that she stayed to keep her eye on me.
“I’m fine,” I say tiredly. “You should go home and get some sleep.”
She opens her eyes and stands up. “Drink up.”
I reach for the glass and slam back the water. “My head and ankle are fine and I’ll be out of here in a few hours. You should go.”
“Yeah, I was thinking about taking off. Jessie will be the nurse to get you out of here in the morning. I just wanted to say bye before I left, but didn’t want to wake you again so soon. How are you feeling? In any pain?”
She doesn’t look too happy at the idea of this other nurse caring for me, but she’s already barely able to stay awake. Maybe she likes me more than she’s ready to admit.
I’ll just have to change that.
“It doesn’t hurt much. It’s nothing I haven’t dealt with before.”
“Ok good.” She looks a little disappointed as she steps closer to me.
“I’ll be back to take you on that ride. Don’t worry,” I tease. “I keep my word.”
She laughs and adjusts my pillow, getting so close that her lips almost touch mine. I’m half tempted to close the distance between us, but I want to wait until she’s awake enough to enjoy the feel of my lips capturing hers. “Maybe you will. Maybe you won’t. Goodbye, Styx. Get some sleep.”
