Chapter 14

872 Words
Ophelia the next morning went to her room to change out of her pajamas because the girls didn't tell her to bring clothes to change into the next morning. As she was heading down the hall to her room she saw a cape go into her room. She came in behind and saw Tabnam looking in her closet. She cleared her throat.  "Where were you at, pet?" He asked her. "The girls asked me for a sleepover." "That does explain why you came in wearing that." He moved through the room. "I wanted to let you know I found a place for you to work shifts on here." Ophelia looked at him puzzled. "I think you would do great in the medical ward. I want to take you there and introduce you to the medical staff I have collected over the years. Go ahead and get out of those clothes." He moved to sit on the bed. Ophelia went to her closet and changed. She came out and stood in front of him ready to go. He got off the bed and headed towards the door. She followed him. They went down to the floor that was almost the bottom. When the shaft doors opened it was like a hospital in an ER section.  A very handsome man came up to him. "The doctor is in his office." He told them. Ophelia was a little disappointed he wanted a doctor. Since who didn't want a hot doctor boyfriend. She looked at Tabnam wondering how he looked. If his face was all scarred or chiseled by a God. She shook her head from that thought. He kidnapped her so she didn't need to fantasize about him. They walked into a small office with a man who was from a planet that needed orange camouflage since he stuck out against the white walls. He looked up and looked at Ophelia then went back down to his work. "You really think she can handle being down here?" He asked Tabnam.  "I showed you her work, why now do you think it will be a problem." Tabnam asked. "I thought she would be older. She looks like someone who will flirt with Mr. Hotpants out there." Ophelia's mouth dropped by the way the man spoke about her. She composed herself quickly.  "That is okay. I would not want to help someone who is ungrateful because of age." He walked out of the room and towards the shaft to take it back up. She was by herself the ride up. She went back to her room. She had nowhere else to be. The two girls were doing their work. She sat on the bed. Then laid down. A knock on the door. She went to open it. The hot guy from the medical ward was standing there like he knew he was Mr. Hotpants. "Hey, beautiful, sorry about the Doc. He can be pretty brutal to us good looking ones." Ophelia wanted to barf by the way he was acting towards her. She felt like she lost a few brain cells by hearing him. "Okay hot stuff, I think you need to go back and pretend like you actually care about patients and leave me alone. I don't need to be a jerk telling me that it's because of the way I look. Whether it is a complaint or an insult." She slammed the door shut. "Ugh!" She stepped away from the door and moved to the bed and laid face down. The door opened. "Now is not the time to tell me I did something wrong." She said into the pillow knowing that Tabnam was standing in the doorway. "I want to apologize for how the doctor acted. If you still want to work down there you can. I overruled the doctor." She could hear pride at the end of him saying he overruled the doctor. She turned her head to look at him. "Do I have to work with Mr. Hotpants?" She wrinkled her nose. "You don't like the way he treats beauty?" He said with laughter.  "You're a jerk. I can't believe you were there. You could have gotten rid of his smug face, but you let him talk to me like that." She got out of bed and poked his chest. He grabbed her wrist to stop her. "I think you can handle yourself, plus I saw the way you drooled over him. Figured that was the kind of man you liked. Why should I stop you from-." "Don't say it. I can't fall for anyone who isn't." She stopped and looked down. She wanted to speak to Adrik. "When do I get to talk to him?" She asked softly. "Give it a few more days. We have to get everything together." He moved his hand from her wrist to her hand and gently squeezed it. "Okay. I'll help as much as I can with the medical ward." She gave him a weak smile. "That's a good pet." He held her hand and didn't move. Ophelia started to not be sure of why he held her hand the way he did. He held on a little longer then left her in the room.
