Chapter 14: Healing
Robin's injury hadn't been fatal but she had lost a lot of blood. The doctor hadn't been too pleased about having to tend Robin for yet another bullet wound but one glare from Amon got him to keep quiet. Nagira hadn't said anything seeing as Amon had been close to tears when he had arrived with Robin.
"She'll need to rest and eat plenty of healthy foods."
That's what the doctor had said and Nagira had actually volunteered to do the shopping himself giving the excuse that Amon had to stay and watch over Robin, which wasn't exactly a lie. So Nagira went to the store and Amon stayed with his wife.
He slowly entered her room but when he saw that she was awake he found no reason to sneak around. In a second he was by her side. He wrapped his arms around her and she winced as his hand made contact with her wound, which was located on the upper right hand part of her back. She smiled, but her smile faded as soon as she saw Amon's expression.
"That was a stupid thing to do Robin."
"I'm sorry"
He saw the hurt in her eyes and mentally kicked himself. Reprimanding her was the last thing he needed to do right now. After all, the girl had risked her life for him.
"Thank you"
"You're very welcome"
He tightened his hold on her as she buried her face into his chest. Her voice was slightly muffled but he still understood.
"Now we're even"
He nodded and played with a strand of her hair
"Next time, you don't get in the way."
"And next time, you shoot."
He tilted her head and looked into her gorgeous emerald green eyes
"I can't do that Robin. What I said back there was true; I do love you."
"Prove it"
He was shocked by her demand. He had been very temped to take her offer but thought against it.
"Robin, you're injured."
"That never stopped you before."
She does have a point. She pulled him to her and he couldn't resist; and for the third time since their wedding day, they made love.
Later on in the night, Amon lay beside a sleeping Robin. He tenderly kissed her and pulled her closer to him.
"Happy anniversary Robin."
Yay! And now we get to the good part. Unfortunately, the good part is also the last part. Okay, I'm gonna hush now. I don't want to make you guys sad :-(. on the bright side, I still have a few more chapters to go! Wait, that's not a good thing is it. Sorry! :'(
