Chapter 3
Damon King
POV
“Dr King, to the ER Dr King to the ER.” My name rings throughout the hospital’s intercom
Shit! I needed to hurry this along.
“You got to hurry it along honey” I grunt out at the cute nurse giving me head. I did not normally do this s**t with nurses or doctors at the hospital but seeing Jess and her f*****g daughter, a daughter she did not have with me. she is f*****g with my head, and I needed to get the edge off and this was not even helping.
Fuck I was not close to coming. How the f**k did I get here? And I do not mean my d**k shoved down the nurse’s throat. How did I get here? Here being sexually frustrated because I saw how sexy she has gotten after leaving me, how another man gets to enjoy her body and heart while I am left with the memory of her.
She is back for one God damn day. And she is already f*****g with my head. I was not this guy. But this is who I turned into after she left me. someone who f***s random woman whose names he does not care to know their names or remember their faces, I have never been with a brunette after her, hell I don’t look at woman without comparing them to her. I say I moved on, but I know that is not true.
Was what I was doing wrong? f**k yes. Using this nurse who is name I never cared to know. I was using her to get the frustration that is my ex-girlfriend out of my head.
Shit now I was thinking about her again.
All I could think about was the summer Jess and I were alone at home, her parents were away visiting family. How she gave me head for the first time. How nervous I was she was going to bite my d**k but s**t the second she took me in her mouth I groaned in pleasure. How I wrapped my hand around her sleek ponytail as she sucked me off. How I came five seconds after that. She was so hot that summer. She had grown out her hair because I told her how much I loved her hair long. She had always kept it shoulder length before that.
I came back to the present when I felt my balls tighten. f**k even years later she had the ability to make me c*m in seconds. I hated how I needed her for an early finish. I hated how seeing her again has affected me. This was not me. mother fucker who was I kidding I was no one without Jess.
“Dr King, to the ER Dr King to the ER.” s**t. s**t. s**t. I really needed to get out of here.
Mother fucker she is the only one who has ever made me feel like this way. the only woman I have ever loved, love… I knew I still loved her; I knew I still hoped she would return to me. One of the other one hundred reasons I was unable to move on from her.
“f**k” I grunt out quietly as soon I spilled my seed into the nurse’s mouth
I open my eyes and see the nurse looking at me through hooded eyes. s**t I was not even thinking about her. hell, I did not even know her name.
Motherfucker. I was so f*****g f****d up.
“Next time sweetheart. I promise. I got to go” I say as I pull up my briefs. I pull up my scrubs next.
“I’ll be waiting for you call.” She says wiping her lips.
Shit if this were any other day, I would have found that sexy but not today. Today I feel nothing but disgust at what I just did in the supply closet of my workplace. Why does Jess have this much power over me? Was because she was what kept me in line growing up? Jess was two years younger than me, Beck and she were always in the same class, yet when I laid eyes on her I knew I wanted her.
I shake my head and rush out to the ER.
I walk pass one of the rooms I see a little girl who looks a lot like Jess. She reminds me so much of how Jess looked. Her beautiful brown eyes matched Jess’s, her dark straight her she struggles to pull behind her ear. Everything about her reminded me of Jess, everything I loved about Jess. I stop dead in my tracks when I realize she is the girl from this morning. The one that called Jess mom.
Some bumps into me from behind and rushes passed me into the room.
I turn to see Jess.
I shake my head and keep walking until I stop Nash. The ER nurse in charge of the ER.
“What do you have for me Nash?” I ask her
“Marla’s had another stroke love…” she says
I sigh… “Who’s in there with her?” I ask her
She smiles sadly… “Dudley is treating her, she didn’t want us to call you, you’re on another case…” she tells me handing me the chart
“White male, late forties, came in complaining about chest pain, his a little out of it. he is on heavy medication.” She says as I read the chart.
“What does the test results say?” I ask her
“He would not let them take tests. I suspect he is on something.” She says pointing at the note she made at the bottom.
I nod.
“I’ll check it out thank you pretty lady…” I say giving her kiss on the cheek.
She smiles. Nash was a fifty-year-old nurse, she has been doing this for years. She was the head nurse, and she kept the hospital in order, she was in charge of us doctors as well. Everyone looked up to her and respected her. Nash chose who got what patients and she gave all the good patients to her favorites. I do not want to brag but she loved me.
I walk away from her and walk to my patient’s room, the guy is strapped to the bed, there is a cop by the door, he was fighting to free himself.
God this was going to be a pain.
“I am Dr King. I am going to be your doctor. Want to tell what the problem is?” I ask him
He stops trying to break free and looks at crazed. He suddenly screams out in pain.
I drop the chart and make my way over to him. I check is breathing and his heartbeat.
“Take this off him.” I tell the officer at the door.
He glares at me. “No.” he says simply.
I glare at the asshole. “Take this f*****g s**t off him. he is going to f*****g die if you do not asshole!” I shout at him
I make a mental note to remember his badge number to give to Axe later on.
“I don’t believe you…” he says
“I will have you f*****g badge. This man is having a f*****g heart attack and if you do not take this s**t off him, I cannot treat him. he will be dead, and I promise you, I will make sure you lose your job for this!” I shout at him
The alarms go off, his crashing.
Fucking asshole!
Nurses rush in.
They look at the cop. There was nothing we could do until he loosened this s**t.
Nash walks in “Why aren’t we treating this patient?” she asks
I look at the cop. “He will not free a dying a patient. And I cannot treat him with this s**t in the way. he wants to kill this patient.” I complain.
Honestly if I were not in a shitty mood because of Jess, I would have treated him passed the handcuffs and restraints, but I was in a f*****g shitty mood all because of her.
Nash glares at the officer. He somehow listened to her and not me because he rushes to uncuff the patient and loosens the restraints.
The nurses and I get to work on treating the patient. After what felt like hours, we have managed to take the draw the patient’s blood and send it to the lab for tests. I need to know what his on before I can give him any medication.
I might be a lot of things, but I was not stupid enough not to listen to Nash, if Nash thinks his on something he is. she has been doing this long enough to notice the signs.
“Hey Nash, I sent his blood over to the lab, can you let me know when it comes in, please?” I ask her.
She smiles. “Of course. I will have Lucy seek you out.” she says
I pause. “Which one is she?” I ask smirking at her
She glares at me. “I’ll have Devon come to look for you.”
I laugh and kiss her cheek. I walk away from her and back to my office when Dudley calls me. I was going to seek him out later, but I might as well ask about Marla now.
“King, listen to this” Dudley calls.
I walk over to him. “What’s up?” I ask him. “This patient just came in, they went out drinking with a couple of women, his women found him getting handsy with another women. The woman went nuts she broke a beer bottle and stabbed him in the stomach. He is here getting twenty stitches and refuses to have her arrested for that. He loves her” Dudley laughs
I shake my head. women have gotten so f*****g crazy since I stopped dating. That being said I hadn’t dated in eleven years, I knew nothing about dating anyone but Jess, I knew how to keep her happy. I know for a fact if her dad hadn’t passed when he did, we would have been married with at least three children. I would have been happy.
Dudley and I watch as Dr Eric Mason works on getting the bottle out of his stomach. The woman holds her boyfriend’s hand as if she did not put him in the hospital in the first place. This was messed up.
“You see this is why I don’t f*****g date, I would crappy hours, and then I got to be there for a woman. I do not have time for that s**t. f*****g strangers is so f*****g better than that. No expectations other than f*****g each other’s brains out.” Dudley says winking at a nurse walking by. She blushes and rushes off.
“You’re an asshole.” I tell him
He laughs. “Do not I know it. Women love it, f*****g the asshole while they look for the next Mr. Right. I am okay with being Mr. Right now.” he sounds like a f*****g asshole.
I look at him rolling my eyes. “Man, I was meaning to ask you how Marla Hufkie you patient is…” I mention it, needing to change the subject and I was worried about Marla.
“She is good, a minor stroke… Her left side is lam of course. I have a physical therapist coming into help her exercise those muscles again. she will regain her full mobility again.” he tells me.
I let out a sigh of relief. “Thanks man.” I thank him.
He nods.
The guy’s stats drop, and Dudley and I watch as he goes into shock.
Mason f*****g messed up.
We walk away.
“f*****g asshole messed up a simple extraction.” He says shaking his walking to his office.
Dudley and I went to med school together. He was married at eighteen his girl cheated on him and had a baby with the man. She made him believe he was the father until the baby got sick, and they tested him to do a transplant. It was a f*****g s**t show. I was the one who had to tell him it was not his son.
We have been friends ever since. I was obviously closer to my brothers than I was him, he did not know about Jess no one but my family knew about her. I did not trust anyone but my brothers with anything personal.
