I'm soooo sorry it took so long! I've been so busy and neglected to update! Sorry guys!
Enjoy!
~PREVIOUSLY~
I smiled and snuggled closer to him. Enjoying the sound of his heart beat and the smell of his cologne. If only we could freeze time and enjoy this forever.
But I didn't know I only had 2 days left...
~JUNE 11th, 2015 - 2:51 P.M.~
"Can I leave yet?" I asked, quite agitated. Nearly an entire fucking day I've been here! And it was bullshit! I just want to go home!
"We are just making sure you are in a healthy condi-" I cut the red headed nurse off.
"Look." I sighed, trying to keep it cool. "I'm perfectly fine. I don't need anymore tests run on me. I don't nerd anymore doctors prodding me. No therapy. Nothing. Nada. Zip. Zilch. Just going home."
Her lips set into a straight line and she was silent for a moment. Then, she released a puff of air. "Fine. But, no extraneous activities. Such as going back to the paddock or sex and whatnot. Got it?"
"Yes ma'am." I said, giving her a nod. "No extraneous stuff for me today."
Just kidding
~TIME SKIP~
Silently and may I add secretly, I typed in the passcode to the paddock. Literally, no one knows I'm here. Not management nor Owen. The latter would murder me for even considering going back in today let alone actually doing it.
When the door opened, the nerves burned through my body while my heart pounded in my ears. I could feel the sweat building up on my hands and forehead, reminding how scared I truly was.
I have no clue how she'll react today either. When I asked around, people said she hasn't moved from the trees, apparently hiding herself from everyone. This news made me even more nervous. If she's angry, I won't know until the last second.
Taking a deep breath, I stepped through the door. A few moments later it shut with a low hiss. And once again, my nerves are shot. I could literally feel my heart about to break my ribs. Yeah, not comforting...at all.
I walked a little ways until I reached the clearing, being super cautious. Letting out a quick huff, I brought my fingers to my lips and whistled, summoning her to me.
There was a few moments of silence, which put me on edge. Usually, she came bounding over, but now? Just dead silence. Not the slightest rustle of leaves or even the ground shaking. Just silence.
I about whistled again before I felt the ground start to shake. Following the tremors came her loud foot steps.
Then, I saw her.
She honestly looked miserable. She seemed hunched over and her demeanor seemed sad. Her eyes held a look of sorrow and regret. It's like she was upset about yesterday. Maybe she did feel guilty... or I could be reading way too much into this and be completely wrong.
I guess there's only one way to find out.
"Hi Rexy." My voice cracked. I cleared my throat and tried again. "How's it going girl?"
She huffed in response.
"That good, huh?" I said with a sly, but forced smile. My hands were stuffed in my pockets to hide their shaking. "I've felt pretty miserable myself. Been cooped up in a hospital all day. Psychiatric tests and what have you." I gave a dry laugh. "Happens when you have a panic attack though, am I right?"
Yes, I know I'm being a bitch. But I can't help it. I'm honestly pissed off and hurt that she'd even try to harm me. I raised her!
She let our a low whine and her knees buckled, slamming into the floor with a loud 'thud'. The ground vibrated while the trees started to tremor. Following her knees came her head, smacking into the floor. Dust clouded my vision for a moment and once it cleared, I got a look at her.
She was hunched down in submission. My little baby dinosaur was actually submitting to me. Something she hasn't down since she was 5 feet tall! Wow!
I tried to walk over to her looking as strong and confident as possible, though I probably looked like a wounded peacock. I stood about a foot away from her nose, which probably isn't the safest place to be, but oh well!
Slowly, I let my hand rise up, then, even slower, I put it down between her nostrils. A satisfied chirp-like sound came from deep in her throat. Like she was enjoying me just touching her. And when I started to move it up and down, she began to make a sound I can only classify as a purr.
"God girl." I whispered, baffled beyond belief. "You confuse me at times." She continued to purr and her body relaxed. You'd never think she'd tried to eat me the yesterday. "You know, I'm gonna get my ass chewed out when I leave here, right? All because I can't help but love you and needed to set things right."
Her body shifted slightly before she stood up and started to circle me. "What'cha doing girl?" I asked, slightly on guard.
Suddenly her tail circled my body then the rest of her body followed in pursuit. When she stopped moving, she had me circled by her body. Like she was protecting me. Her head rested on her tail, right next to me. Her eyes we half open and I just couldn't help but gaze into them.
"I love you Rexy. So much." I hugged her face awkwardly, but she seemed ok with it. That is if her purr was anything to go by.
I let go of her head and sat down on the ground. My head rested against her head and I couldn't help but feel content. Closing my eyes, I let myself sit with my baby girl in peace. Screw worrying for now, because this is better than anything else right now.
~TIME SKIP~
"-and that was a very idiotic idea Miss Ender. She could've reacted badly just like yesterday. Or you've could've died. Or worse, she could've broken something in the paddock."
Nice priorities you've got there Claire.
She's been chewing my ass out for about an hour now. It's honestly annoying me right now. She's been saying the same thing over and over again. Just in a different way.
"She could've hurt you, Miss Ender. Or even worse, she could've hurt herself by breaking something in the paddock."
See what I mean?
"Look, Ms. Dearing, I get that it was a stupid decision. But honestly, it worked out fine. She seems guilty if what she did and is now trying to repent it seems like. Is that bad?" I asked, trying to get out of this annoying meeting.
She pursed her bright red lips. "We are glad she seems rather calm now. And would seem that she is taking it rather fine in your presence. But that does not me-"
"Oh Claire, leave her alone." My savior! It was Simon Masrani! "She did what her instinct told her to do, and that instinct was right. The asset seems much more happy and content."
The urge to stick my tongue out at Claire is rather high at the moment. But got to be professional. Keep th at slippery organ in the mouth. That's a good girl.
"But Mr. Masrani, the asset could hav-" He cut Claire off.
"Let it go. Everything worked out fine. So leave it be and don't tell anybody about this. Leave it to rest. Ok?" He gave her a pointed look.
She pursed her lips but nodded. "Yes sir. Understood completely."
Ha! Take that!
Simon turned and looked at me. "Now Miss Ender. One thing for you."
No! Take it back!
"Please don't have a repeat of this. I don't want to explain to any government officials why a trainer was cuddling with a T-Rex when she was eaten. Ok?"
I let out a heavy sigh. "Yes sir."
"Good!" He clapped his hands together. "Let's go have lunch. Shall we?"
Claire cleared her throat. "Actually, Mr. Masrani, I have a lunch date already."
This piked both of our interests. "Really, with who?" Simon asked.
"Mr. Grady, sir. Owen Grady." I think my jaw just broke from how low it dropped.
"Excuse me?" I snapped. "Mind repeating that name because I think I heard you say you were going on a date with my boyfriend."
She gave me a small smirk. "I can assure you didn't hear wrong. I am, in fact, going on a lunch date with Owen Grady."
"And why, pray tell, are you going to lunch with him?" I asked in a scary tone.
Her smirk turned more condescending. "He actually asked me out. So I'm not sure why."
"Oh. Hell. No." I basically growled. But suddenly, I felt calm and void of all emotion. "Alrighty then. Have fun. Give him my hello." Her eyes widened at my statement.
"Um- I will." She stumbled over her words.
I gave a curt nod and turned on my heel, walking over to the elevator. Once inside and safely going down, I pulled my phone out and called the one person I could trust right now. Lizzy.
"Wassup Sourwolf?" Was her greeting.
I let out a sigh. "You're still off today, correct?"
"Yeah. Why?" Was her weary response. "You sound funny. Are you ok?"
"No. I'm not. I'm coming over right now and I'll explain it you then. Ok?"
"Yeah. See you in a bit." I hung up and put my phone in my back pocket.
I lifted my head and looked at my reflection in the elevator door. I noticed something rolling down my cheek. Wiping it off with my hand, I noticed it was wet and watery.
It was a tear.
~TIME SKIP~
"Lizzy, give me the baseball bat." I demanded as I attempted to yank the wooden bat from her death grip.
"No. I'm gonna go bash that bitch's head in then I'm moving on to the Raptor boy." She tugged on the bat. "Now let me go commit murder."
Huffing, I managed to pull the bat from her hands. "You aren't murdering anyone." I tossed the bat to the floor. "I'm fine."
She raised an eyebrow at me. "Like hell you are. You came to my door with red, puffy eyes and a frown engraved in your face. You aren't fine."
"Yes I am." I sighed. "I just couldn't accept the shock at the time. It's hard think the man I loved is taking another woman out to lunch." I let out a snort. "What makes it worse is Claire just sat there and basically rubbed it in."
Lizzy basically growled out, "And murder is still not an option."
"It's a back-up option." I joked lightly.
"Good. My swinging skills are still pretty good." She said, making a swinging motion with her arms.
I couldn't help but laugh loudly.
~TIME SKIP~
It was about 8 when I got home-or should I say Owen's place. Maybe he was screwing Claire in his bed. Making her moan his name. Letting her sleep in his arms.
My anger took over as I slammed the door shut and waited for Owen to come out of the bedroom, holding a sheet around his waist. But that never happened. Instead he came out of the kitchen, holding a sauce spoon covered in red sauce.
"Hey babe. You ok? You look pissed." Owen asked, actually sounding worried.
I gave him an overly sweet smile. "Just peachy, babe. Just a stressful day is all."
"Well, it's over. Come on. I'm making dinner. Hope your hungry." He said, motioning me to come to the kitchen.
"How sweet of you. But I don't imagine you're all that hungry since you had such a late lunch with Claire. Hmm?" Call me a bitch, but I have a right to be one.
His back stiffened and he stopped stirring the pan. "Who told you we had lunch?"
I snorted. "So it was a big secret, huh? Just cheating on me with her is ok as long as I don't know, huh? Well, your dumb side hoe told me you two were having lunch. She spilled the beans." Tears rain freely down my face now.
"God damn her." He growled, slamming down the wooden sauce spoon. "Let me guess, she made it sound like we went out on a date and whatnot. Didn't she?" His gaze cut to me, making me step back slightly. "That dumb bitch. I told her to me for lunch so I could discuss Blue's files and charts. I haven't been fucking her, opposed to your belief."
I sniffled. "Really?"
He walked over to me, cornering me into the counter. "I haven't once thought a thought about her that wasn't rude or professional. I haven't once fucked her. Even kissed her. And I don't intend to. Why?" He cupped my chin in a tight hold. "Because I love you and only you."
He kissed me gently, pouring all his emotions into the kiss. I felt the raw love and passion he had. It was mind boggling. And it showed me he loved me.
When we broke apart I rested my head against his chest. "I'm sorry." I whispered out. "I'm sorry I didn't trust you. Or had faith. I'm sorry."
"It's ok." He whispered into my hair. "I'd have reacted the same way. And I'm sorry it came across like that. Ignore that bitch. Ok? Don't listen to her." I nodded into his chest, cuddling closer to him.
I didn't deserve him. He trusted me so much and loved even more, but I can't even have a bit of faith in him. I should never have even been allowed to be with him. He deserves someone better.
Maybe the universe heard me, because today was my last day before I encountered death itself.
~END OF CHAPTER~
Once again, sorry this took so long. A lot of stressful things have happened of late and I have had no time to update. Super sorry!
You can yell at me in the comments if you want.
And what did you think of Kellee's jealous rage? And what do you think she means that today was her last day? HMM?
REVIEW!
