Jaded heart

Stubborn women

Donte pov 

We are always listening for any terror attacks on our own soil and a report that came in is from a bank robbery with a bomb, a military bomb which is highly unlikely but the name I read on the report says otherwise. I have nothing else to do at base so reading terrorist reports is a way to understand them a little and how they work which makes it easy for us to prevent further attacks however as I read the report I notice someone got a head wound and it doesn't list the name but it don't take a genus to know a bomb expert who lives in that town. Head injuries in this line of duty aren't reported most of the times so they can fall though the cracks but not this time, especially not when its containing someone I care for highly. Looking around the room I make a quick exit and too the hospital Gabriella is staying at hoping she's ok, she's an important member and everyone needs her in fighting shape. 

I make it too the hospital in record time which is a little shocking for myself as normally I do drive steadily but not this time, with all the long nights we have spent with each other I have grown to really care for her, I respect her as a women and a solider and I need to know she's ok with my own eyes. I know I should have texted her instead of coming as I know she think I'm being over protective with her but she has no one but a friend and she refused to get close to anyone else so if I have to show her love I will, I'll do anything for that women. Reaching Gabriella room I take one look inside from the window and I cant take my eyes off her, she has a mark where that bastard hit her and I don't like it, just looking at her now I could hurt the man that did this. Walking into Gabriella's room I head straight towards her needing to touch her, I need her in my arms, theres something burning in me thats telling me to touch her 

"You ok?" I finally speak looking her all over making sure its just a head wound but as I look her over I don't see anything not even a bruise on her and I feel better knowing its only a knock to her head but I don't like that, I look at the screen she's connected to making sure nothing out the ordinary however I have no idea what I am looking at, I should have paid more attention to Laura class that time. 

"I'm fine, just a slight headache but its nothing" I hear but I know its more then a headache as the bruise on her face is already coming out, I hope they have taken a X-ray to make sure she hasn't cracked her skull or have any brain bleeds. Looking at Gabriella now I know she would tell me she's fine as thats the way she's been since I had met her, even if she was shot and bleeding out she would help everyone but herself and thats why someone needs to look out for her most times and I have no probably being that person. 

I exit the room when the doctor comes in the room as I am not family to Gabriella but I take a seat at the door and I listen to everything that is being said, I know Gabriella loves her privacy sometimes and she hates people knowing her business like she didn't want people knowing who her father was but if I was her I would have been shouting it from the room. Listening to the conversation I smile slightly when I hear nothing about brain bleeds and a c***k skull, but I do listen when I hear concussion and I know she will have one. Waiting for Gabriella discharge papers I make sure she has a lift home and is ok before I have to leave for the base knowing I cant stay with her I would if it was possible but I need to be at base training as mission can come at any time. Nevertheless the papers don't take long and I am following behind Gabriella out the door and towards my car, making sure she makes it home and will stay at home safe and sound, the last thing I need is to be thinking about her while she's out, I know she can look after herself but I need to make sure she's ok. 

Driving back home I make sure to stop at the shop and I tell Gabriella to wake in the car as I run in the shop and pick up some food for her, as I know theres only one reason she was in the bank to begin with and that was for money to get food. That women in my car loves her food and if anyone got in the way she would take down without much force so the best thing I could do right now is buy it her, she could have texted me or something but I know Gabriella wants to do everything herself, miss independent. 

"You didn't have to buy me food" I hear Gabriella say as I hand her the bag of sweets and biscuits with some proper food and I know Gabriella is only saying that but when I look over to her I can see her search in the bag looking for something and I got what she wanted, when it comes to food Gabriella a pretty easy read. 

"I know I didn't but I want to" I say placing one hand on her knee, I look at Gabriella as she looks at me and I know something has just changed between us as I can see it in her eyes and I feel something different in me change. I don't know how long we was looking at each other but I have finally move my eyes to the direction of the traffic and now I am driving her back home hoping she at least take it easy now for the rest of her week off. 

Pulling outside Gabriella house I climb out my seat and make sure she makes it into the house safe and is going to relax now but as I follow Gabriella into the house she heads to the kitchen placing her food away, I just want her to take a seat on the sofa and relax but she doesn't, well not right away but I refused to move from the spot till she did. I raise my eye brow at her and Gabriella takes the hint, she moves her cute little arse to the sofa and then gives me a smirk. I just love these movement. When Gabriella on the sofa I walk over and place one kiss on her forehead before leaving and heading back to the base but my thoughts are always on Gabriella, needing to make sure she's ok but I know she never call if there was a problem, stubborn women.
