Life With Falling Gravity

~Chapter 18~

~Chapter 18~

Doni's POV:

when i saw her eyes focus on me, i was so relieved.

i almost lost her.

i cant imagine my life without her already.

i know it may seem fast. but i cant help how i feel.

i placed her inhaler to her lips and pressed it twice; so it would help her breath.

once i felt her breath a little better; easier, i felt a huge weight being lifted, and i released a breath i was holding in for i don't know how long.

i touched my forehead to hers, i kissed her lips, then her forehead, and then her nose.

i cherished and loved everything about her.

then i heard this asshole walk in.

"well, well, was that a kiss i saw?" he said with an evil chuckle.

rage just flew out of me.

i spun around and just ran at him.

i shoved him into the wall.

"I WANT YOU OUT OF HERE! I WANT YOU NO WHERE NEAR HER!" i yelled at him.

he smirked,

"and if i don't listen, brother?"

"then you will be sorry." i threatened him.

his eyes then scanned over her body.

Nico was dabbing her forehead with a cold rag.

"we will share her. you'll see." he said in an uncomfortable tone; his eyes scanned back over to mine.

just as he was about to turn and leave, i grabbed his upper arm.

"if you go anywhere near her Zeke, i will kill you. and no, that's not a bluff." i threatened him.

"are you threatening your only brother, for some booty call?" Zeke asked with a chuckle at the end of his breath.

"no, i'm threatening my only brother for the safety of my wife."

Zeke's eyes grew wide.

"i-i didn't know man. sorry."

"just get out of here."

i walked back to Arina's side, as he walked out.

Ambrose was cleaning up the damages, and furniture.

i then took Arina in my arms, and gently placed her on the bed.

i placed the blindfold over her eyes for extra measure, and placed her glasses on the night stand.

i told Nico to leave the bowl of water and rag with me, i just wanted to lay here with her.

i needed to be here when she woke up.

i needed to explain.

i just sat by her side for hours, just dabbing her face with the wet rag, and holding her hand; never taking my eyes off of her.

she didn't hum, which made me worry more.

i stayed by her side all night, she came to about 5 in the morning.

"mm" she moaned.

"Arina?" i asked from the other side of the room, sitting in a chair.

she began to cry,

"go away"

"please let me explain, baby? just hear me out."

i said kneeling by her bedside and whipping away her tears that slid passed her blindfold.

she didn't say anything.

she just listened.

"when i was talking to him, i had to lie about how i truly felt about you."

she turned her head away,

"baby, i had to. he has a history of...rapping women he believed were with me.

i don't want that for you.

i don't want any other man touching you.

i don't want anyone ever harming you.

or even being with you.

i did it to protect you."

her breathing increased, and tears began to fall from under her blindfold.

"if it wasn't true, why did it feel like it was?"

"normally i'm a bad liar, but i had to do it for your safety.

not to mention him being here pissed me off.

but trust me, i will never, ever lie to you.

i will spend the rest of my life making you happy.

please, please believe me.

i love you.

i- i cant lose you." i explained.

"..........." she began to sob hard again.

"it hurt so much. it seemed like that's how you truly felt."

i hugged her feeling her tremble in my grip.

i reassured her,

"it hurt because what we have really is real.

i promise you, what we have is real.

and you wanna know how i truly feel?

i'm stupidly madly in love with you.

feeling this is so new to me, and i know, that i never want to lose it." i explained.

her trembles calmed down.

"i don't want to lose it either.

if you are ever unhappy with me let me know. ok?" she asked.

"why?"

"because i want you to be happy." she said sincerely.

"baby, with you, i am always happy.

well, except for today.

today i was f*****g scared out of my mind."

she giggled.

a knock came from the door.

"hey hey! we all come to see sleeping beauty."

Nico said referring to all 4 of the guys.

"more like poofy beauty.

i shwear my eyesh feel like poishonous puffer fish."

the other guys laugh, but i noticed something they didnt.

"Baby? can you sit up for the rest of the day?

i wanna get you some ice for your face and give you some meds." i asked her.

"but they will wake me shleep."

the other guys just looked at me with a knowing look. they too were concerned.

"that's ok.

we are just gana rest and chill today, and then tomorrow i have a huge day for us."

i didn't want to worry her.

she took a breath and nodded,

"fine, my head ish pounding like a war dwum anyway."

shortly after her meds, she cuddled up tight against my chest and i just ran my fingers threw her soft hair.

Makihe came in to change her ice,

"hey, can you do me a huge favor?" i asked him.

"sure whats up?"

"i i ordered her something.

i wanted to make it up to her.

i wanted to get her something a little fancy.

if i send you my order number, can you pick it up from the jewelry place for me?" i asked.

"yea bro, anything you need." Makihe said.

i eventually fell asleep with Arina, in my arms.

"Don!" Rhett called me from somewhere in the bus; waking me up.

he then came running in,

"don, sorry, but we need you outside.

Zeke is back."

i was so angry, but i didn't want to wake up my princess.

i eased myself out from under her.

i closed the door behind me, i walked out of the bus.

and there he was...just standing there like i owe him something.

"what are doing here?" i asked.

"i came to see how my sister in law is doing." he said with a smug look.

"didn't i tell you that if you came back i would kill you?"

"yea, and yet here i am...alive." he said with open arms.

"you should leave."

"nah, i think i'll stay.

i'm not here for you, i'm here for Arina.

god i love that name." he said in a cocky tone.

"leave."

Arina said from behind me wearing her glasses.

"psh, don't you think you should get to know your brother in law before kicking me to curb darling?"

Zeke asked.

"if...'my husband' believes you are nothing but trouble, then you need to leave.

i trust Doni more than anyone in the world.

What he says goes." she explained.

"but-"

"Doni's reputation needs a contractor, not a demolitionist.

either you leave on your own free will, or i will have my u.s marshal uncle come and remove you by force.

your choice." she said sternly.

his cocky expression was quickly erased.

"we're family. i will be back."

Zeke said walking off.

i walked over to her,

"babe, that was awesome!!

but why did you bring up my rep?" i asked.

"you don't possibly think you can do better with out me do you?

your reputation will be in the past." she said.

i chuckled.

she then grabbed my wrist, and whispered in my ear.

"call dr. cay, i think something's wrong."

i looked at her, and i noticed she was sweating.

i then helped her back inside, and called Dr cayson immediately.
