I'm Only Me When I'm With You
Chapter 8
"God I am so tired," muttered Gabriella.
"Everything ache?" asked Troy.
Gabriella nodded. "Yep and my hair is a mess but I just want to lie on the couch."
"How about a hair wash and full body massage corsetry on moi?" asked Troy.
"Give us a kiss first," smiled Gabriella.
"Gladly," murmured Troy, leaning down to carry out her request,
"So massages or hair wash first?" asked Troy.
Gabriella leaned against Troy.
"Whichever," she yawned.
"You're really tired aren't you?" asked Troy.
Gabriella nodded.
"How about we have the massage, tea and bed?" asked Troy.
"If I have a massage now I will fall asleep," said Gabriella.
"Tea and then massage?" asked Troy.
Gabriella smiled and nodded.
The next day.
Pain flashed before Gabriella's eyes, a sharp pain on her hip – like metal slicing into it and then as soon as it happened it was gone.
Troy had seen what had happened and was by Gabriella's side with a tea towel immediately. Yvette had been drying up, she had walked past Gabriella with a serrated knife – purposely holding it so it was graze Gabriella's side. Then she walked on, to take it though the café – discreetly wiping it on her apron and put it back in it's place.
Gabriella knew the hands on her hips from her many nights in Troy's arms.
Troy would deal with Yvette later right now he knew he needed it get Gabriella to hospital. The bleeding seemed to have stopped but Gabriella had just fainted in his arms and she needed stitches.
Once at the hospital Troy wasn't allowed in with Gabriella as she was taken for tests to find out why she fainted.
The cause – dehydration and malnourished. She was also pregnant. She loved Troy, she loved the baby. She would just wait a little while to tell Troy.
With that all sorted she was stitched up and sent home with Troy.
