Chapter 2: Thank You
Emily Pov:
The next day I was lying in my hospital bed when I heard my daughter coming in.
"Mommy."
"Katie sweetie what are you doing here?"
"She wanted to see you." Paige said and pick her up, placing Katie on the bed.
"I miss you mommy. I wanted to see you."
"Oh I missed you too jellybean."
"Mommy call me jellybean." Katie said and giggled.
"Why is she always putting herself in danger for." I heard someone yell and realize it was my mother.
"Just relax Mary." I heard my father say and they walk inside my room.
"What are you two doing here." I asked
"What did you do now that landed you in the hospital?" Mary asked
"Nice to see you too Mom."
"Don't start Emily." She said, "So you gonna tell us what happen."
"Not in front of Katie."
"Oh we have visitors." Roman said as he walk inside.
"One hundred dollar guy." Paige said
"Hello again Paige."
"He's the man that saved Emily last night." Paige said
"You saved my daughter last night? From what?" Mary asked
"Paige can you take Katie downstairs to the playroom." Emily said
"Sure."
"But I wanna stay with you mommy." She said
"It's Katie right?" Roman asked. She nodded her head, "I have to make sure your mommy gets better so can you go play for a bit and when you come back I'll give you a lollipop. If that's okay with your mother."
"Can I have Lollipops mommy?" Katie asked
"Yes go with Paige, jellybean." Emily smiled. Paige and Katie left, leaving Roman to talk with Emily and her parents.
"So Dr. um, sorry what did you say your name was?" Jason asked
"It's Doctor Reigns, Mister Morgan." He said, "But you can call me Roman if you like."
"So doctor Reigns, mind telling me what happen to my daughter?" Mary asked
"She never told you?" he asked
"No, now someone better tell me." Mary said
"Mom, stop being rude." Emily said
"I think it's best your daughter tells you." Roman said
"Emily what happened." Jason asked
"I was attack at work. This guy wouldn't stop bugging me." she said
"Oh for god sake's Emily and you couldn't call us?" Mary asked
"I'm fine okay."
"That's not that point, I don't want you working there at that strip club anymore." Mary said
"Keep your voice down and i'm twenty four years old not two mother. I love my job and I need the money to help Katie have a good life."
"And you can have that life. You can work somewhere else." She said
"No mother. Now leave so I can be alone." Emily said. Mary didn't say anything else and left.
"I'll come bye tomorrow if that's okay." Jason said and kiss his daughter head.
"Sure dad." Emily said
"Thanks for taking care of her Roman." Jason said
"You're welcome sir." Roman said as Jason left.
"I'm really sorry about that." Emily said
"It's fine Miss. Morgan."
"You can call me Emily."
"How are you feeling today, Emily."
"I'm doing okay I guess."
"I'm gonna just look at your head for a second." He said and lean into her. Emily look up at him while he look at her, "Does where i'm touching you hurt?"
"No." she said. Roman stop touching her head and look into her eyes and smiled, "What?"
"You have pretty eyes?" He asked. Emily smiled and then blushed.
"Doctor Reigns on you hitting on your patient?"
"That's only cause I think she's beautiful." Roman said. They both stare at one another. He was about to say something when Paige came inside.
"I hope i'm not interrupting?" Paige asked
"Nope." Emily said and smiled at Paige.
"I'm gonna take Katie back home she's getting sleepy, plus she's asking for her lollipops." She said and Roman smiled.
"Yes, right here." he said and pulled them out of his pocket.
"She's gonna be happy now. I'll see you tomorrow Emily." She said and left.
"You're friend seems really nice." He said
"Yeah she's awesome." Emily said
"Well I have to go for lunch." He said and paused for a second, "Would you like to join me."
"Am I okay to walk."
"I'm sure you'll be fine but if you do feel dizzy don't worry I won't let you fall and stuff." Roman said. Emily smiled and got out of the bed, "Wait let me help you." He said and grab her hand.
"Thank you." she said, "Just let me grab my robe there. I really don't wanna walk around with just this gown on."
"Why? Afraid someone is gonna see that cute bum of yours?"
"Ha, ha very funny." Emily said and grab her robe.
"Come on let's grab some food."
"Yeah cause hospital food sounds great." Emily said
"Oh it's not that bad." Roman said.
"Well I can honestly say that sandwich was alright." Emily said as they both walk into her room.
"Told you it wasn't all bad."
"Yeah, yeah." She said and sat down on her bed.
"Can I ask you a question?" Roman asked
"You can ask me anything." she said
"Why not listen to your mom. I mean it is a pretty bad job you got."
"I know but it's what I want right now. I love dancing and it's what i'm gonna do."
"Still I don't wanna see you get hurt again." Roman said
"I'm glad you were there to protect me, but I can't always be protected." she said
"How long have you been working there?" He asked
"Three years now. I was a waitress first before I was a dancer. What about you? How long have you been a doctor?"
"Only for two years." Roman said.
"Do you have kids Roman." She asked
"No I don't. I would love too someday though. I love kids." he said.
"Yeah kids are great." Emily said,
"Well I have other patients to attend to."
"Okay."
"I'll see you later." He said and was about to leave when she call him.
"Roman, I saw the way you watch me dance." She said. He turn around and look at her.
"What do you mean."
"Twenty dollar guy. I remember."
"Oh yeah right about that, my friends drag me and I didn't..."
"What did you think." She said and he look at her with a frown
"Think of what?" He asked
"Of my dancing." she asked. Roman smiled and walk back towards her.
"You look very sexy up there." Roman said and kiss her on the cheek, making Emily blush, "I'll talk to you later beautiful." He said and left her room. 'Holy shit Emily what have you got yourself into.'
Later on Emily was talking with Paige on the phone and she was not happy.
"What he can't do this to me."
"I'm sorry Emily." Paige said
"Where's Katie."
"She's with your parents for now." Paige said
"God how can he do this to me."
"Is everything okay in here?" Roman asked and walk inside.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to be loud."
"It's fine, what's going on?" He asked
"I'll let you go for now. Call me later." Paige said
"I will bye Paige." I said and hung up, "It's my ex, he wants to take me to court."
"What for?" He asked
"He wants full custody of Katie." Emily said and began to cry.
"Hey everything is gonna be okay." He said and hold her.
"I can't lose her Roman." She said
"You won't I promise." he said
"There's something else. My landlord is kicking me out. I have no home anymore. I got sixty days to get my stuff out."
"Hey I will help you out."
"I would stay with my dad but his place is to small and I would go to my mother but she's just a pain sometimes. Look I know i'm not suppose to leave here till tomorrow but I need to see my daughter."
"Emily you have a concussion, you might hurt yourself."
"I don't care Roman I need to be with Katie."
"I have an idea if you want to hear it."
"What's the idea?"
"I'll let you leave here today if you promise me something."
"I promise."
"I want you and Katie to come stay with me at my place."
"What? Are you serious?" Emily asked
"Just until you find another house for you and Katie to live in."
"Are you sure I mean us girls are a handful." Emily said and Roman laugh.
"I'm sure I can manage the both of you. So what do you say, will you and Katie move in with me?"
"Yes of course." Emily said and hug him, "Thank you Roman."
"Your welcome Emily."
