Pieces of Me Pua Ramona (read me a book txt) 📖

to go, but she’s worth it. If she wants me to grovel at her feet, then fuck it, groveling it is. I just hope that she doesn’t give me shit when she finds out that she’s going home with me.

“I know you're mad at me Sina, and I feel you pulling away because you don’t trust me. But I promise you that I will do everything to show you how much you mean to me.” Her eyes are closed and I want her to believe me so badly. I lean into her and breathe her in placing small kisses on the side of her neck. “I love you Sina, and I am going to love you the right way.”

Chapter Forty-Five

Eli

Doctor Powell walks in around ten o’clock and Sina hasn’t said one word to me. It’s a little irritating, but I keep my mouth shut. I don’t force any conversation and make sure not to push her, so I sit there going through my phone while she does the same. There’s so much going on that I’m not even sure what day it is so I decide to attempt a little small talk. “Hey Babe, what day is it today?”

She gives me the dirtiest look and says “I’m not your ‘babe’ and I’m sure your phone could answer that for you BABE!”

I want to laugh but I don’t want to upset her anymore than she already is. “Is that sarcasm I hear in your tone?” I tease. I swear if she keeps rolling her damn eyes like that, her damn eyeballs are going to fall out of her head. “If you don’t stop with the attitude, I swear I will spank that ass.” Her face scrunches up and I want to kiss her so fucking bad but I hold myself back.

“If you want my foot up your ass then go right ahead” she snaps. I can’t help it, giving in and chuckling. She’s going to make this shit harder than I thought, but that’s okay I don’t plan on stopping and I’m definitely not going anywhere.

“Good morning Sina'' Doctor Powell says. Then he looks at me. “How are you Mr. Hunter?”

“I’m doing good doctor, '' I say and he looks back at Sina.

“I’m okay, just tired,” she says.

I’m not sure if she wants me in here or not, so I stand up and say “I’ll just wait outside.”

Sina looks at me then looks at Doctor Powell. “You can stay Eli'' she says quietly.

“Are you sure?” I ask. She nods her head yes then I move to sit next to her. Fuck, she smells so damn good.

“Stop sniffing me” she whispers. I feel my face get hot so I clear my throat just so she can stop looking at me like I’m an idiot. Well, I am an idiot. I didn’t think she would hear me sniffing her sweet ass.

“Am I still cleared to leave today Doctor?” she asks hopefully.

“Yes. Everything came back good, so there is no reason to keep you here any longer. But I did want to ask if you were in any pain today” he says looking into her sad brown eyes.

“Just cramping a little but I’m feeling okay” she says with a shrug.

“Okay, Annie will be in here shortly with your release forms. All we need is your signature then you both are free to leave. Try and get some more rest Sina. Your body needs all the healing, so make sure to not overwork yourself.” He says before turning to leave the room.

“I’ll try,” she says.

“I’m sorry for your loss Sina. El, you take good care of this young lady” he says. Then he walks out.

Five minutes later Annie walks in with the papers for Sina to sign. “You have everything Doll-face?” she checks.

Sina smiles and says “Yes I do. And thank you so much for everything.”

Annie hugs her and says “You take care of yourself now, and come by and visit me sometimes. Maybe you could take me out for some coffee and cupcakes.” She winks at Sina making her blush. Am I missing something here? Annie giggles before she walks out.

I look at Sina and ask “What was that about?”

All I get in return is, “Hmmm.”

Annie comes back with a wheelchair and she says “Hospital policy.”

Sina rolls her eyes and says “Let me grab my things.”

But before she can reach for them I cut her off and take them for her. “I got it babe.”

She gives me another dirty look and says “I am not your babe.” And Annie laughs.

“Come on girl. I promise I’ll push you all the way outside.”

“That doesn’t make me feel any better, Annie,” Sina grouches. Annie and I both look at each other and we snigger.

Sina looks over her shoulder and says “It’s not that freaking funny.” I check the room once more, making sure that we’ve got everything.

“Do you still want your coffee babe?”

“No, you can throw it in the trash” she says. I get ready to toss the cup in the trash and I see that there’s a brown bag in there already. I don’t want Sina to know that I’m being nosey as fuck so I make it look like I dropped my phone. I go to fish my phone out the trash and see that there’s a note from Marino. I take a deep breath and remind myself that he’s her friend, but it doesn't mean I have to like that he’s still doing things for her. I seriously need to check this jealous side of me, fuck. Annie starts pushing Sina out of the room and I follow right behind them. We walk out of the hospital and I say “Wait here, I’m parked right there.”

“Okie dokie” Annie says. Sina doesn’t even bother looking or saying anything to me so I walk to the parking lot to get the truck. I make sure to tuck her things in the back then drive to where they’re waiting.
