Chapter 3
Mac's POV
"Excuse me?"
I turn around and see the doctor walking towards me and Don.
"I thought I should let you know that we've removed the bullet successfully, without any further damage."
"So, she'll be okay? No infection?"
"No. As long as she doesn't put pressure on her leg, for at least a couple of weeks, she'll be fine. One of you can come with me to see her now."
"You go." Don says to me.
I nod, and follow the doctor to Stella's room. When I enter the room , I see Stella sitting in bed. She's smiling at me, so I smile back.
"You can come in further, you know?"
I walk in further, and before she can make any smart comments, I pull her into a hug. Without any hesitation I plant a kiss on her forehead.
"Did you find out how Don got to the bar so quick?" Stella asks with a blush on her face.
"He told me while we were waiting."
I quickly explain the story Don told me. About the bet that was made between our coworkers, when we would get together. Don had put his money on tonight, and decided to follow us, to see it with his own eyes.
"What did you say after that?"
"He won …"
And with that I place my hand on her cheek, to guide her lips towards mine for a passionate kiss.
