It took one male nurse and a lot of shoving to get me out of the room.
I sat on the sofa in the waiting room, my sobs muffled by my hands as I cried for my love. After a few more minutes of crying, I tried to regulate my breathing, taking measured breaths in and out.
I pulled out my cell phone from my pocket and dialed the first number that I could think of.
The phone rang three times before someone picked up.
"Hello?" I heard Christian's voice answer.
"Hey, it's Ro-ose. I-I… is L-Lissa there?"
"Rose? What's wrong? Take a deep breath… now let it out slowly…"
I did as he told me a few times, his voice crooning and helping me calm down a bit.
"There you go… deep breaths. Okay, Lissa is on her way to you. Adrian called her."
"Oh God," I moaned. "Does she know?"
"We all do, Rose. We are going to help you. I just got back from work. I'll be there in an hour, okay? Lissa is on her way."
A soon as he said that last sentence, I spotted my best friend by the waiting room entrance.
"She's already here."
Betaed by the lovely Nicia.
