You guys gave me such good reviews, it gave me incentive to start writing immediately! Tell me what you think:)
He can't help but smile at her. He loves her; the way she is and her kind soul. It's a no brainer that he fell in love with her at first sight 10 years ago. And now she's his; Mrs. Becky Torres. Adam can't say that name enough to satisfy himself. Just a mere 2 hours ago, they were wedded husband and wife and now they are on their way to their honeymoon in a limo.
Becky's POV
"Say it again, Adam," I say. I couldn't wrap my head around the idea of me actually being married to Adam. We are finally together and nothing can tear us apart.
"Mrs. Becky Torres," Adam says kissing my cheek. The way he says it is exotic and it sends chills down my entire body.
"And I can't wait for tonight," I say in a seductive kind of voice. Normally, I would oppose such kind of behavior but he's my husband now; nothing we do together will make me want to pray for forgiveness later.
"Are you sure you're okay with it?" he says tentatively. Something went wrong with Adam while we were in college. The surgery failed because his body rejected the new parts. He was depressed for a whole year because of what he couldn't be for me. But I didn't care; I loved him just the way he was and I still love him the way he is.
"Adam, I love you. I didn't marry you because of your body; I married you because of your personality, your heart, and kindness. It doesn't matter what you don't have because I still believe you are a guy between the ears and that's where it matters."
He smiles his half smile and I kiss him straight on the lips; I force my tongue into his mouth and moan louder than I should have but I don't care.
"Woah, woah, woah, save it for tonight, Mrs. Torres," he says breaking away. I don't know why he's teasing me; he's telling me to save it for tonight but his lips are inches away from mine. I can't help that I want to just love on my husband. His eyes went wide as I heard tires screeching.
"Adam what's-" I felt metal hit me on my side and everything went black.
Hospital 3 weeks later
Adam's POV
Pain. I wish I could be more specific than that but that's all I feel. Everything hurts; my head is throbbing with every pulse, the inside of my lungs feel like someone is lighting a match with every breath that I take, my legs feel uncomfortably numb, and I'm pretty sure I've been bleeding eternally. I open my eyes but that was a big mistake; a whole new wave of pain hits me and cry out; another big mistake, my throat feels like rusted nails rubbing together.
"Adam? Mom! Mom! He's waking up!" it sounds like Drew but I can't tell-his voice sounds like it's been gone for days.
"Oh my goodness, my baby boy!" my mom cries over me. Her tears hit my face and it takes everything in me not to cry out in pain. Jeez, everything was so sensitive. "Adam can you hear me," she says getting really close to my ear," I say yes but my throat rewards me with more pain begging me not to speak again. My eyes start to water from all the hurting.
"Honey are you in pain?" my mom asks. I go to say yes but then I remember my throat and I nod my head. Even though that hurts too, it's feels like heaven compared to talking.
"I got the doctor mom!" says Drew.
"Adam, it's nice to have you finally with us. I'm doctor Jenson." I don't like him, he's too smiley and it mocks me.
"Doctor, he says he in pain," my mother says half-crying.
"We have something for that," says Doctor Jenson. He walks over to my left and types in something. I feel a cold, trickly sensation coursing through my body and all the pain reduced to a dull roar inside.
"That should do it. Mrs. Torres may I see you for a second?"
Mrs. Torres. That sounds familiar; like something that is mine. I don't want to think too hard, it's giving me a headache. I lay there quietly but I hear the voices of my mom and Doctor Jenson.
"He's going to be fine, but it will take a while. Recovery is a slow process so he needs to rest for maybe 1-2 months."
"I understand, doctor. How is she doing? I know he's going to ask soon."
She? Who is she? They see me looking at them and step away into the hallway where I can only hear bits and pieces of sentences.
"Stable... awake… truck hit her first…"
My mind reels as my memory hits me hard. Marriage. Mrs. Becky Torres. Tonight. Truck. Hit. Darkness.
Becky. Where's my wife?
"Drew," I rasp, "where's Becky?"
"Uh, well you see, um… Hey mom, he's asking about her!"
My mom comes into the room and she's by my side in seconds. I waste no time in asking where my wife is. "Where is she mom? How is she?" that's all I can ask, my throat starts to grow weary again.
"Adam, I don't think it's a good idea right now."
My eyes harden as I grab my mother's hand trying to make her understand that it's killing me inside not knowing. "Where. Is. She."
My mother sighs and looks down at the floor for a couple seconds. She looks back up with tears in her eyes. "When she was hit by that truck, she got the worst end of it. Her heart stopped 3 times before she got to the hospital. She's in intensive care right now. The doctors have diagnosed that she's in a coma-"my mom chokes up at the end. I'm probing her to keep going but she bursts out into tears. Collecting herself after 5 agonizingly long minutes, she continues. "The doctors said there is 17 percent chance of her waking up. It's been 3 weeks, Adam. They said that if she doesn't wake up by the end of the week, they are going to pull the plug on her."
My mom bursts into hysterics crying on my body. I can't feel the pain anymore. I don't know what to feel; much less how to feel about this situation. I feel myself crying but that could just be my body reacting to my mom's heavy sobbing on my stomach. I don't hear her anymore, I just hear the heart monitor next to my bed. The beeps are getting slower and slower and the room starts to get fuzzy. I feel funny; I've never felt my heart stop before. Is this what Becky felt 3 weeks ago? Becky. In my last thoughts of her, I feel doctors and nurses surround me and the faint sound of 'clear' and a dull jolt of electricity as I slip into unconsciousness.
So yeah, here it is. Comment please! I need to know how you guys like it-if you guys like that is.
