LUCIA POV
"I asked what the hell is he doing here!" Damon shouts, making me jump.
"He came to see me." I say, testing the words as they leave my mouth.
“He came to see you? Why?" Damon asked sarcastically.
“Because unlike some people he cares."
Liam interrupted us and Damon rolled his eyes.
"I want him out, right now.” Damon scowled looking at me intently, that sent shivers down my spine. I turned to look at Liam who was glaring at Damon with a scowl on his face, then at Harry who was looking at me, waiting for my answer. The room had gone silent, the only sound that could be heard was the one from the beeping monitor. I sighed heavily.
“He's not leaving, Damon." I stated. He started to speak but I raised my hand and stopped him. "Harry is my friend, you can't go about pushing my friends away. You can't stop me from seeing my friends." I concluded.
"Oh, I can and I will." He replied furiously and walked over to the bed and pulled Harry up by his collar and they both looked dead in each other's eyes.
Thankfully, Liam separated them just in time before they could start exchanging blows, but Damon still looked angry.
"Dude, what's your problem? I just came to see her and you are being a jerk." Harry rolled his eyes.
"Don't you dare call me a jerk you-" I cut him off.
"Stop it!" I screamed suddenly and Damon turned to me with a worried look, and Harry heaved a sigh.
"I am here in this bed after fighting with death and here you both are, fighting like maniacs." I was so angry.
"I'm sorry, Lucia," Harry apologized. "I shouldn't have come here but I just wanted to make sure that you were okay."
"It's not your fault Harry. I'm glad you are here." I forced a smile. "You are my friend, Harry." When I finished with Harry, Damon stormed out of the room, slamming the door shut. I sighed. What's his problem with harry? Is he jealous?
“I'm sorry about that." I expressed my regret to Harry.
Harry left an hour later after giving me a kiss on the cheek, with Liam and Sophia following behind him.
I hate to admit it but I was actually missing Damon right now.
I was alone in the big hospital room that I occupied, and it made me sick. I know Damon regrets everything he's done but I just can't get over it. He hurt me so much and I just can't forget it or forgive him. Those past five years that he wasn't there had taught me a lot about life and its concept.
The nurse assigned to me entered the room, pulling me out of my reverie.
"Hello, Miss. Stones." She gave me a warm smile. She was holding a tray of food for me. I sat up on the bed, and she put the tray in front of me and the smell from the food filled my nostrils and I sighed happily..
I began to eat the food in front of me as the nurse filled my glass with water. When I finished eating she handed me some medicines and I took them.
Once done with her work she left the room, wishing me a goodnight's rest and I smiled at her. She left the room and I was left alone, again.
"I love you, Lucy." I heard a voice and slowly I drifted awake. When did I fall asleep?
"I'm sorry for everything I've done, I'm sorry For ruining everything, for ruining us. Please just give me a chance to fix things." Damon pleaded.
"Damon! Are you drunk?" I asked, worried, but he didn't answer, instead he continued spluttering
"I love you, baby.” He confessed, ignoring my question, and making my heart flutter with his nickname for me. "I know it's not easy for you to forget what I did and forgive me but I just want to fix my mistakes and be a part of your life once again. Please Lucia, just one last chance." He begged.
"Damon, you need to rest." I tried to ignore what he just said, but he grabbed my hands and I gasped at the suddenness of his action.
"I need you, baby.” He stared into my eyes.
"Damon, we'll talk about this when you're sober." I pulled my hands out of his.
"I love you, Lucia, you're mine to love, mine to own and mine to cherish. Mine alone. Just give me another chance, please.” He murmured and without another word he staggered to the couch and collapsed on it, his head and legs on the arm rests of the couch.
For a fraction of a second I just wanted to wrap my arms around him and comfort him. Tell him that everything would be fine. I wanted to tell him that I forgave him and that I was willing to give him another chance.
But, I can't. It's just so hard to forget what he did to me. The many nights I cried for him, the nightmares that he caused me. the pains he put me through. It's just impossible to forget all of those.
I leaned my head back on the pillow after watching Damon sleep peacefully on the couch. I sighed heavily as tears pricked at the corners of my eyes and all of his words replayed over and over again in my head, like a broken cassette. How can he do this to me? Why does he do this to me? Before I could control my emotions, a sob escaped my lips, and I covered my mouth.
Damon has never been good with his words and neither with his actions. He just can't show that he loves someone or at the least, express himself by words of mouth. But, I know that he loves me, regardless of whatever happened in the past. And I know that I loved him, I still do love him, and I'm sure that I will continue doing forever. I may not forgive him, but I will always love him.
