Everyone was waiting outside of the hospital room. Gray had lifted her up into his arms and place her on a stretcher when they came running over. The paramedics took her over to the station, there was a nurse there too. Sting had faith in the emergency crew, but he wanted a nurse to be there for any serious cases. The nurse advised them to take her to Cedar Memorial.
"How could this had happened?"
"Gray calm down, man."
"How can I, Natsu. A light almost came crushing down on her. Never had a experience like this before. There were small minor things over the years, but not this."
"The nurse did say she will be fine. Probably has a bump on the head and the cut over her right eye."
"I know what she said. To have her pass out like that."
"At lest you caught her."
"Why don't you come and seat down. You are wearing a hole in the floor."
Lucy pats the chair next to her. Humbly sits down and slouches putting his head up against the wall. When she was taken in the ambulance, Sting shot down production for the rest of the day. Wanted to investigate on what occurred. There was no way anyone would resume working after witnessing what they saw in front of them.
"When will they come out, they have been in there for awhile."
"I am sure they are taken every percussion necessary given she is pregnant Gray." Laxus was standing over by the window. It was his car they took to come to the hospital. They all rushed inside right behind the paramedics.
Gray hits the arm chair with his fist. If anything happen to the baby from being pushed out of the way by Nastu and rolled on the ground. He was grateful for his save, if only he gotten their sooner himself.
Laxus puts his hand on his shoulder. Clearly seeing he was agitated over the situation. Amber has been his Manger for years. If anything happen to his client he would be just as hurt as well. Natsu had a thick head, but he wouldn't want harm to come to him.
"Sorry guys, if anything happens to the baby. Amber will be hurt, and I would feel as trouble too."
"Gray, man. I held her as tightly as I could when I grab her. It was the only thing I think of doing."
"I know that, you were fast as lightning getting to her. It's just knowing how much she wants this kid. It's putting me at edge."
"We will be told soon of her condition and be able to see her. What of her brothers have they been informed, called?"
"I haven't thought of phoning the twins Laxus. Wanted news first and go from there. She has been talking to Mystogan because of her cat Happy. Regrading Jellal they are not on speaking terms."
"How come?"
"Not my place to say. I will phone one of them when someone comes out of that room." If Laxus where to find out that he was the baby father he doubt he would spread the word. There was no taking chances of word getting out. He still had yet to tell his parents. That will take place when he is on a longer break.
"I can give Jellal a call. We talk all the time."
"No need. Thanks for the offer."
"If you change your mind let me know."
"Sure Laxus."
A other 15 mins went by before someone was going to enter the room with a machine. Gray stands up goes over to the person before they slip into the room. "How is she?"
"Please sit Sir, we are almost done. The doctor will answer your questions in a few minutes. If you will move out of my way so I can get this in there." It was luck or a blessing that Mira was on call at hospital to replace a other co-worker that came down ill.
"What is that thing?"
"Gray that is ultrasound machine." Lucy being the only female in the hallway for now. Erza went to get coffee for everyone. They were uncertain how long of a wait it was going to be.
"Ohhh. They are going to check on the baby."
"Sir please." Stepping aside, the male nurse went into the room. Gray tried to take a peek before the door was shut. There was nothing to see, the nurse block his view.
"Dammit!"
The room was brightly lit as she slowly open her eyes and closed them again. Her head was throbbing and she could feel someone doing something to her head. Trying to sit up from her position to know what is going on.
"Ughhhh."
"Take easy Amber, putting stitches into your cut."
Opening up one eye she looks at the person who is putting a other stitch in. "Mira?"
"That is right. I am almost done here, then I can examine you again. You have a nasty bump on your head."
"I can feel it."
"Are you dizzy?"
"Yeah, more so then I was."
"Was?"
"I had to hold onto the table when I got up from my chair."
"Your blood work will be here soon. I had the nurse bring in this?" He rolls over the machine and puts it by Mira. With scissors she snips off the string, and takes a band aide to cover up the cut. The tray she used gets moved away and the machine gets set up.
"Amber, are you feeling any cramping?"
"Ummmm I don't know. Why? Is something wrong?"
"A ultrasound will tell us more. I also brought this with me." She shows her the baby monitor, it's a different one from earlier on today."
Amber swings her legs off the bed and sits at the edge. Trying to stand up her legs wobble. "Amber what are you doing?"
"My phone, I have do a recording. Gray needs to hear it."
"You aren't going anywhere. Plus Gray is outside with a other people"
"I need my phone."
Mira ask the male nurse to put her back on the bed. "You aren't in any state to be looking for your phone. Right now I think you're a little bit mix up from your goose egg, use your hand to feel it for yourself.
Her hand feels around and finds the bump on her head. Frowns at the mass and the bandage covering her wound. This wasn't how she wanted to spend her day or how it turn out. Not having the energy to move very well. The room spinning and she was seeing double. The nurse didn't need to help her. She sat back down on the bed and Mira helped with her legs.
Then Mira instructs the nurse to leave the room, she can perform the rest with out any help. "Why don't you put your head back on the pillow. Going to put some of this stuff on you again. Remember that cold jelly that made you jump a little."
"Yes, I do."
"Good, here we go."
"Wait!" Covering her stomach Mira stops squeezing the goop out of the bottle. It gets laid down on the bed and having the doctor look at her.
"We need to check Amber."
"He needs to be here. Was mad, that I did other thing on my own. Didn't you say he was out there?"
"Yeah, along with a few other actors."
"Send in Gray, Mira."
"As you wish." Walking over to the door and opening it up had everyone standing from there seats. Mira couldn't say as to why he can enter, was able to fool them. "Mr Fullbuster, your manger has request for you to come in. She is asking about her phone, wanting to call family?" In her file she read that she had twin older brothers. Jellal was the next of kid that had to be called.
"I can call them."
"Can you please tell her tha?"
"Of course doctor."
"Gray tell her we are here for her."
"I will Lucy."
Closes the door on the group who are trying to get their own glimpse of her on the bed. "Please come over here Gray, you can stand on that side of the bed. So you know, she is a little bit out of it."
"Oh...is she going to be okay?"
"We will know more after we check the baby. Amber wanted you to be here to see it as well."
"I would like to do a recording for you on my phone. "
"You did do that and I listen to it."
"I did?"
"See, she is still confused. "It will past, and lets continue." Mira puts the cold jell on her stomach, which cause Amber to jump again. Then turning on the monitor and taking the attachment from the machine she puts it on her stomach below her belly button.
"Lets see if we can find fetus."
In fascination Gray was watching on the monitor for the smallest life form to be seen. Squint his eyes when Mira points to the screen. "There we have it, didn't take long to find it."
"That small dot Doc."
"It may look small Mr. Fullbuster, but Amber's belly has grown." Gray looks down at her stomach and can see a small baby bump was there. How he didn't notice earlier, when he had his hand there. "Right here as you can see is the heart beat in that dot."
"Wow, life is really inside of you Amber." He turns his head from looking at the monitor to see her face. There where tears falling.
"What is wrong?"
"I could have lost it? I wasn't careful."
Taking one of her hands into his and giving her reassurance. "Hey no, this isn't your fault. Sting is looking into what happen." Mira keeps the gadget on her stomach while she brings the doppler over. Turning it on, they hear the baby's heart beat."
"See Amber the baby is fine with a strong heart beat like before."
"Mira, is the baby really fine?"
"You are seeing and hearing it for yourself Amber." Wiping the tears from her eyes. She smiles up at her and nods. "Doing very well the both of you."
"If I lost the baby. My world would have crashed, I wouldn't be myself again." She looks over to Gray. He had sat down on the bed next to her still holding onto her hand. "I couldn't bring myself to ask you to do this again. I would have probably quit as your Manger and go live in the mountains for the rest of my life. Not showing my face to anyone again."
"Amber, if and I mean if that did happen. I would go through it all over again."
"You would?"
"Yes, no questions ask. To see that smile on your face looking at the screen. It's all I need." Mira eyes the two of them together. These two didn't know it yet, but there is something there. It will be only a mater of time before one of them realize that they belong together. Her pick would be Gray first. Amber still had her past to sort out and if a person comes on to strongly she will flee.
"Do the both of you want a picture of each or one?" Amber didn't see that the equipment was remove from her stomach. "Wait my phone I needed a recording."
"Amber you did it already remember and plus your phone is gone."
"Gone?"
"It was on the table along with your laptop and purse. Lucy has your purse, but we couldn't salvage your phone underneath the glass."
Putting her hand to her cut and shaking her head that felt like there was cobwebs blocking the event from her mind. "I remember looking up and see it coming down on me, then I was grabbed."
"Natsu got you and rolled you on the ground."
"I do vaguely remember him getting me."
"Try not to push it Amber. Let it come back naturally. Here you two go, I am able to print out a picture right here instead of sending it to the nurses station. I am going to look over your blood work."
"Thanks Mira." The picture in her hands she takes a finger and puts it over the small figure. "My baby is right there. It's right here in me growing." Putting a hand on her stomach and looking up at Gray. She has never said her thanks for his help. "Thank you Gray."
"Same here Amber." Touching her arm and giving her a warm smile. Mira walks back over to them after reading through the paper.
"Everything mostly checks out ok. I have to ask, did you eat anything today. Even when you last saw me?"
"I don't think so. I have tried, but smell of food makes me gag."
"From what you told me about standing up from the chair and holding onto the table you had a dizzy spell correct?"
"Uh huh. The world was spinning right in front of me and if I let go of the table I would loose my balance."
"Try to eat something if you can't. Don't want you to be anemic and having to be in the hospital and hooked to a I.V. which we can still do now."
"Is it that serious Doctor."
"It can be Mr. Fullbuster."
"Gray please."
"Baby needs the food she eats. Helps in the develop of growth. It's not uncommon for pregnant women to skip meals, but for the whole day it can be extreme. Have smaller portions through out the day if you can. Make sure you drink and rest lots."
"In my line of work I am fairly busy. So much to do in a 24 hour period."
"Your work can be stressful right?"
"It can be."
"Stress is not what you need. Can you cut down on the amount."
"No I can't."
"But she will." The women turn to Gray as he started talking. "I have seen the way she works. After she is finished on her laptop she stands around and watches me do a scene or talk to people that come by."
"During that time does she rest?"
"No, I can see to it that she does."
"Gray, there is no point to that. I can mange to do what I need to with the time that is given. I like to be a head of the game not fall back on it."
"Trailer can be of use?"
"No, ok. I have use it today once that is plenty. Juiva is down for a bit, can't see myself in there when you need to occupy it."
"I will let you two work that out. I am being page." Has a pager in her hands when she took it out from her pocket. "Have other patience to see. I will see you at your next appointment."
"Amber can leave now, not needing to stay the night?"
"As long she rest for the next few days she should be fine, if you do feel any cramping in the next 12 hours come back."
"Good I hate hospitals."
They weren't going to ask why knowing it was because of her past and getting beat up by her ex boyfriend. Mira collects the papers and clip board and starts leaving the room. "Take care Amber."
"I will Mira."
When Mira leaves it's just the two of them in they room. "Time to go and get you to the hotel."
"I guess it's late huh?"
"Well after 9pm."
Planting her feet on the hospital floor she stands up from the bed and starts walking to the door. Her head was still giving her problems, but she didn't want to cause anymore problems for those around her. If she can make her eyes focus on the door and not to see double it will be smooth sailing.
The door was open for her by Gray. Went forward first and waited for her to reach the door. Could tell she was still lightheaded and not walking great. The others that were outside waiting for her to come out were very excited.
"Amber are you alright?" Lucy gave her a crushing hug. It almost knocked the air right out of her lugs.
"She will be fine Lucy, slight confusion though. Kept talking about her phone."
"Yes, we were unable to claim it. I do have your purse right here." Handing it over to Amber to hold onto it had Gray taking it from Lucy.
"Her balance is a little off right now. Handling it now could make her go sideways."
"It will not Gray. I can very well held my own purse." Snatching it from his hand, had him raising his eyebrow at her. She put the strap on her shoulder and look to the group. "Shall we go. I am now free. All of you can go back to the set to continue to film."
"Amber, Sting shut production for the rest of the day."
"Wait why? It was the last day here. Laxus."
"It was because of you and getting hurt. Sting was not happy at all. Right now he is searching to see what cause the light to fall."
"This is not good. I will phone Sting and tell him to get all of you back there to continue or all of you will be behind schedule. Now where did I put my phone." Zips open her purse to look for her cell. Everyone looks at Gray and he nods his head.
A coffee cup gets thrown into the trash and Erza marches over to Amber. Placing a hand on her shoulder and getting her full attention. "It's fine if they miss one day of filming. We all know how Sting works and he will make up for it. He would rather see the people he knows safe and out of harms way then rushing to catch up."
"Erza..."
"She is right ya know Amber. It's best this way, we were all worried for you. I don't think these three could even think of working after seeing what happen." Laxus was glad to see his friend that he has adored from the moment he was introduce to her in his grandfather office.
"But Laxus."
"No buts Amber. What is that in your hand?"
Looking down she forgot she had a the ultrasound picture. "Oh yes, this the first picture."
"Really I would love to take a look at it." Lucy and everyone gather around her and she holds it out for them to see. Gray had step back from everyone gathering. He folds his picture and puts into his back pocket. It was her moment to share of his baby. Just watches everyone gush over her and the picture. Lucy squeal, Erza had to tell her to be silent didn't want to disturb other patients. Laxus and Natsu were not to sure what to say. They were very happy to see her smiling over her little one.
Everyone had to break up in the hallway when a orderly came by with a bed and told them to move out of the way. It was their cue to leave the hospital. They all piled into the elevator head down to the main floor. Amber needed the rail to hold too and not to fall. Felt a hand go on top of hers. Looking at the hand follow the arm up to see Gray have a worry expression.
Whispers to him. "I am fine." Give him a thumbs up too. Lucy saw the the gesture and smiles to herself. How could they and anyone else not see how they look together. Erza and her didn't know the real reason as to why Amber didn't have anyone in her life. They were only told she had no interested in being with a guy. Was going to remain single for the rest of her life. They have seen the men on set check her out and talk to her and have their eyes and smiles light up their faces. With how many times someone would come up to her there was no response back. Amber was very guarded and Lucy wanted to know why. Erza never question it either, it wasn't their place to know unless she was willing to share it herself.
The elevator doors open they step out to head for the main entrance. When they got outside, Amber breaths in deeply. "Hospital smell always linger, but the fresh air will clear that away. Every time I step out of those doors in the past."
"Every time? How many times have their been?" Lucy looks at her friend thinking that was a odd thing to say. Gray didn't give her a chance to hear the answer. It wouldn't be wise for Amber to talk about it. Her mental state was on a break right now and he didn't want her to say a wrong thing.
"Laxus where did you park?"
Taking out his keys he press a button and he hears the car honk. "That way two rows back it's by that hummer."
His vehicle was bigger then the suv. It look like medium size van and it was able to seat everyone. "Get in all, the first stop will be dropping you and Gray off."
The ride back to the hotel and everyone talking about different things. Amber wasn't paying heed to any of the conversation. Looking out the window and watching buildings and cars go by. The sun was already settling it down for it's sleep as the moon rises. There were clouds in the distance, the stars were ready to shine. It felt peaceful at that moment, the events that took place only hours ago weigh on her mind. Touching her fingers to her bandage had Gray turn to look at her.
"Hurts?"
"Yeah."
"We will be at the hotel soon."
"Uh huh."
"Something wrong?"
"No just thinking of today. How close I was to not being here or us not being here."
"Sting will find out and let us know. Glad that both of you here."
To see the hotel and getting out Laxus van had Gray at ease. Then waiting to hear word on Amber and seeing her. Made his emotions go haywire, he at lest had good friends to keep him company and tell him everything will alright.
"Goodnight guys, see you tomorrow."
"Bye Lucy."
Gray and Natsu pump fists. "Hey man, can't wait for tomorrow."
"Me too."
Waving the van off and watching it go out down the road. Everyone had different hotels to go to. It felt bittersweet not having everyone at the same one. Sometimes it was for the best, didn't want a whole bunch of reporters hanging around.
"Come lets head inside Amber."
The person at the front desk acknowledge them as they walk in and they head for their floor. The elevator up again had Amber holding on to the rail. It mess up her equilibrium and feeling like her feet where not touching the ground.
It stops on their floor they start to leave the elevator. Amber foot catches the crack in between the floor and the elevator. Tripping and stumbling right in front of Gray's eyes. He catches her before she does more damage to herself. Holds her and brings her closer to him.
"Did you get a dizzy spell from the ride up?"
"No, not watching where I was walking."
"At lest I was here or you will be on the floor or having a other sprain ankle."
She looks down at her feet and moves each of them around to see if she did do just that. "Nope all good. You know this is becoming a habit."
"What is?"
"Having you catch me and being in this potion."
"That is wrong?"
"Well, I am not usually a klutz. It's always with you when this happens. Sorry that I am bothering you with my clumsiness."
"Not bother by it at all."
"We best head in or someone will see us."
Letting her go and walking around him to get to their room. Gray didn't understand why every time he has held her or lifted her up into his arms her body fit perfectly against his. When that thought came he batted it out of his head. "I have the key to open up the door."
Turning the door knob and letting her go in first before him. What she was seeing in her vision had her shutting her eyes tightly. "JUIVA! CLOTHES!" The women only hours before was knocking on his trailer and now here she was naked on the kitchen table with her legs wide open. Whip cream and strawberries on her body.
Gray wasn't expecting her to show up and seeing her on the table wasn't a bad view at all but now having him sharing a hotel room with his manger, there was a downside. "Cover up with something, Juvia."
"Juiva had heard of the production shutting down to an accident. I wanted to surprise you Gray with Juiva body."
"That you did, but could have called?"
Amber turn her body and face the other way. There was two options she can do. One was go into her room, close the door and remain their until hell freeze over. Two get a other room and get the image out of her head. That table is ruin for her to be eating on it from now on. Having the second option would be better. It benefit her for not walking in on Gray and Juiva doing the nasty in the room. It should have been this way from the beginning.
"Didn't call because Juiva wanted to see the look on your face when you walked in. Juiva wanted to have some delicious fun with you. We didn't have dessert at supper." Gives him a lustful wink.
That was the last straw for her to be hearing anything in a sexual nature. Not caring what the two of them was doing behind her back. It was her opportunity to leave the room. Hearing the door slam shut had Gray take notice that Amber left. "Why did she leave?"
"Now Juiva and Gray can be together for the rest of the night."
"Not the best time Juiva can you clean up? I have to retrieve Amber."
"Juiva doesn't want too."
"I do, can ya. I'll be right back."
Goes out the door leaving her to ponder what just happen. Here she was waiting for him to enter his room and be ravish until morning. Now she is being told to clean up and not having sex. Something wasn't right with this scenario. Gray has never stop them from having intercourse. Himself was the one that lay down the rules of them being together.
"Juiva is not happy. He is not even here for me to talk this way." Picking up the paper towel from the counter she stars wiping herself off. "How could this turn out so wrong."
Her finger was on the button for the bottom floor before the elevator door closes. A male hand was able to keep the doors open for him to step inside. "What are you doing?"
"Getting a other room. I knew it should be this way from the beginning. We need space from each other. That part of your life is yours alone. It's not a place for me to intervene when your conquest is waiting like a planter for food. Ughh food."
Hand goes to her stomach at the word being said out loud. The hope that it passes soon where she can eat normally again. Leans up against the wall in the elevator and not even pushing the button for the main floor.
"You aren't getting a other room. With the bump on your head and not eating. You need to be careful."
Closing her eyes she feels the pounding in her head. "I am careful."
Walking closer to her and putting a hand on top of hers. He looks at her closed eyes. "You almost trip coming out of the elevator. That isn't being careful or safe"
"Gray, I can't be in a room where you have a women over doing who knows what and in what places of the room."
"I can be discreet and keep it the bedroom and be quiet." He rubs her hand with his thumb. Is this how far he will get to touching her stomach. She didn't even see his hand being place there. Her eyes have train her to watch everything around her. Did the injury cause her slip up.
"Can't promise me that."
"I will and if need be. I will not have sex in the hotel at all. There are other places to do it in"
"La la la not listening to this.
"Amber I have ask you to trust me. I want you to believe that."
Opening up her eyes and looking into his. The belief was there and she has come this far in trusting a man. How far can this trust go or last. "What of her?"
"I'll talk to her. She will have to understand somehow. It's not like we are together, together. It can end anytime."
"I don't know Gray. I knew she was coming from your messages with her and what Zeref had called me about too. This is your private life I am invading on and it will not be right. Lets go back to the way it was. I have room, you have a room."
"No, not going to happen. We will not argue about it. I am fine with this arrangement. I will talk to Juvia."
"I don't want to inconvenience you in anyway."
"Never."
"Fine I'll stay, but if at any time. I feel it should be changed, I will not hesitate."
"Understood. I think we go back to the room now. I told Juiva to get clean up."
"Give me a minute." Removes his hand from hers to go open up the elevator doors. Then Amber grabs his hand making him turn around to have it place it on her stomach. "At lest this time you didn't move it million times."
"I thought you said you can't let me touch you."
"Probably it's the concussion effecting my judgment. It's your saving grace period." Smiling up at him and closing her eyes. This day was finally hitting her, she was ready to crash.
"Thanks." Leans beside her and her hand was now rubbing his. If he can have more moments like this to know his baby. It will make him jump over the moon in happiness.
"I am ready to call it a day."
"That tired are you?"
"Yes. I am. With working, not having energy because of the baby. I feel all spent out, need a one of my drinks."
"No way are you having those."
She grins. "Mother hen. Lets go before she comes walking out in the hallway naked."
"That would be entertaining."
"Ewwww do you ever stop."
"Stopping now."
Getting off the elevator a second time and she was hoping that when she opens the door Juvia will be dressed. Not having to look at her breast or vagina will be imprinted in her mind for a long time.
Covering her eyes with her hand as she step inside into the room. "Juiva are you dress now?"
"Juiva is Amber and sorry."
"Didn't except to find you that way when coming in."
"Juiva didn't think about see you as well."
"There is a reason for that Juiva."
"Juiva wants to know what Gray has to say."
"With Amber pregnancy she has been having a hard time. I was concern and thought we could share a hotel room."
"Juiva's Gray is sharing a room with his manger." Frowning and turning her head to look at Amber and her facial expression changed to angry.
"I have my own room over there Juiva."
"There are two rooms?"
"Yes. Right now I am going to mine. My head is throbbing and cloudy need to sleep. Goodnight you two."
"Want me to bring in some pills."
"No thanks."
The room stay still until Amber went into her room and closed the door. Juiva suddenly wraps her arms around Gray and kisses him. "Mmm Juiva is needing Gray now. I was looking forward to be eaten by you."
"Juvia lower your voice. Amber will not stay here if we are making to much noise."
"Juvia is not please, she can't lower her moans." Standing on her tiptoes she starts sucking on his earlobe. Her hand travels down his chest and undoes the button to his pants and zipper. Then reaches inside his underwear to feel his penis waking up to her rubbing him.
"Mmm Juiva. We can't do it out here." Taking her hand he leads her over to his bedroom door and opens it up.
"Hoping for Juiva to have fun out here or out there." She points to the veranda and wanting to have sex outside and be noticeable for all to see.
"That would be great if Amber wasn't here to which she is. How about we make this a challenge of sorts."
"Juiva likes a challenge."
"Great, can you keep your voice low while I eat you out. Can't make any noise at all. If you do I will stop."
"I guess Juiva will accept." He pushes her on top of his bed and closes the door. Instead of removing all of her clothes he takes off her pants and underwear. The little patch of hair still bugged him. This was a peace offering for her, they will have to find other places or go to her hotel room. That didn't sit right with him, he wanted to still be close to Amber in case she needs him.
Spreading her legs and liking her clit once he hears her moan. "Remember." His head lifts up to look at her.
"Yes Juiva will try. Now make me cum Gray. Make Juiva cum."
"Cum as much as you want if you can make it through the challenge with out being loud." As he was looking at Juiva, her face change to the women in the other room. Gray had to shake his head for a moment he thought he was seeing Amber in front of him. He thought he was hearing her voice too.
"Please make me cum Gray. Pleasssseee." The way Amber was begging him in his vision had him wanting to hear her moans and to hear how loud she will get. As soon as he wanted it to happen Juvia was back in his sight.
"Gray? Juvia wants to know you are ok. You aren't moving, something wrong?"
"Nothing." Putting Amber out if his thoughts while making Juiva cum felt wrong. In the past he had fantasize other women while being with a different girl. This shouldn't so hard to do. What is going on with him?
Going no father then he did with making her cum a few times. Gray didn't want to have intercourse with her. They laid together on the bed until she had fallen asleep. Making a excuse saying he had a long day. Tomorrow was going to be even longer since they had to make up time. Maybe sharing a room was effecting him in some way. Spending all this time together, there was nothing wrong with it. Why did she appear in front of him like that? Why did he want to do with Amber and not with Juiva? Was it time for them to go their separate ways and have a new girl on his arm? Before he fell asleep he had some thinking to do.
At the location Sting was talking to Cobra. Finding out the cause to what happen had him up in arms. The equipment was check every day so accidents like this did not happen. "Cobra your are in charge of overselling everything. Can you explain it to me?"
"Sorry Sting I wasn't here at that spot. My new hire help and I where going do that light but we were busy fixing a other one at the same time."
"So you have no idea how it would have come loose?" Sting had checked the rope and it was still intact, not cut or anything else wrong with it.
"Don't know what to say. We have a few other stage hands, maybe when one of them was checking on it they didn't make sure to see if it was secure enough."
Sting wasn't to sure if he should believe him or not. Cobra has been working with him for years and mishaps has never taken place. There was no time to find a replacement and Sting gave people second chances.
"Well, if this what you are saying is true then I have to take your word for it. I want you to tell your hire hands to double check everything from now on. I don't want a other accident like that again. The person that got hurt is pregnant. I would hate to see her injury again, understand."
"I do Sting and I'll make sure the guys know it too. Sorry she was hurt, is she ok?"
"Erza send me a message she is at the hotel. Has a bump on the head and is a little confuse. Also has bandage over her right eye. Could have been so much worse Cobra."
"I know, I will get the tech guys to fix her laptop and phone."
"Her phone is garbage, and if we can get the hard drive and transfer everything over onto a new lap top that will be good."
"I will go buy one in the morning."
"I will do that. I am in charge for everything here, I will give her my forgiveness for what took place. Now leave, everything is shut down for tonight. We start tomorrow at 8am."
"Right, heading out now."
Sting turns and walks away from Cobra. "I will send her some roses too." Looking over the area where the light was and the table. Shaking his head thinking that how could this be possible. Every detail had to be prefect, there was no cutting corners in show business. One move can ruin a career.
Getting his backpack and leaving from the side entrance and walking towards his car. "Psst." Cobra looks around to see who made that noise. Sees a person stepping away from a big oak tree.
"What are you doing back here?"
"I wanted to know how it went."
"You are lucky Dan I didn't fire your ass."
"I told you I was sorry. I didn't intend to let go of that rope, but I couldn't hear you."
"I had to cover for the both of us. If he found out that I was there beside you when it happen and I could have prevent it. We will be looking for other work."
"Man I am sorry really. I need this job."
"Got to be more careful Dan. She got hurt, your ex got seriously hurt."
"She did?"
"A bump on the head and bandage over the eye. Probably from that cut."
"I know her, and she is a strong cookie. Can pull through anything that life throws at her. You would be surprise." He grins at the other guy. It thrilled him knowing she was harm by him. Now that was done, he had to be careful for the next time. Can't do something else right away or attention would gather to incidents happening. Then if someone piece it together, he will be back in prison. No way he was going to return. This is his freedom and he had a lot to make for. It was to cause misery for her. Enough to get her fearful again, then to strike when ready.
"I got go. We have to be here at 8am, Dan."
"I will be here." Cobra gets onto his motorcycle and drives away. Dan looks back at the set and lights up a smoke in his hand. Takes a deep drag from it and blew it out of his mouth.
"Yes I will be here for all the fun. You like fun don't you Amber. What else can I do and do to you." Throwing the smoke onto the road and walking down the street. Dan started working on his next plan. There were so many things he could try, but he couldn't be seen doing. Today was a close call. When he was watching her from where he was it worked in his favour. "I am feeling lucky tonight I am going to find a slut and have my way with her until morning."
