Seducing The Good Man

Welcome Back

Elena POV

Opening my eyes, everything felt blurry for a few seconds.

I groaned.There was an excruciating pain in my back.

When I opened my eyes,I saw James to my right, Maximilian to my left and the chief was seated on the couch.

"Welcome back." Maxi smiled.

"How long have I been out?" I asked.

"Two days." He replied.I bit my lips.

"So many people." I whispered.

"So many? The chief,the best doctor of this hospital and the VIP patient." He joked.

"Okay,you aren't the best doctor." I rolled my eyes.

"Yeah,yeah.Chief who is the best doctor?" He asked.

"That would be me." Bradley chuckled.

"I am so sorry for leaving you,El." Maximilian said.

"It's alright.I wanted you guys to be safe and thank you for listening unlike him, which is the apparent reason behind me getting shot." I rolled my eyes.

"And I want him out of here." I added.

"That's not- I wanted you to be safe." He whispered.His voice was so low.

"I didn't ask for it.I am here because of you! I won't be treating patients for a while." I outburst.

"Elena,calm down." Maxi grabbed my hands.

"Tell him to leave." I whispered.

"Don't be this cold,Elena! He is the man who carried you for four hours in his arms despite having frozen shoulder because no doctors were in the premises to operate.He stayed here with you 24/7 the last two days.He refused to have you out of his sight.What is wrong with you?!" He spat out the words.

"Actually,I should leave." James stood up.

"James,man-"

"No,no it's alright." He smiled as he walked through that door.Something pierced through my heart at that very moment.

"I feel disgusted of your behaviour!" Maxi said.

"I don't remember asking for your opinion." I rolled my eyes.

"Elena,fix that f*****g ego before you lose every single person and you think you are so great that it doesn't matter if you lose people cause everyone likes you? Well,guess what, temporary people will come and one day you will be left alone." He said.

"Stop arguing.What is wrong with you both?! Elena you definitely need to fix your behaviour because James is the best human out there and dare you hurt him. Maximilian, apologize! She isn't just your friend,she is your co-worker and a doctor." Bradley said.

"Darn it!" He slammed the door angrily and exited the room.

"Fix yourself,Elena.There is still time.Good night." Bradley said as he exited the cabin.

Truth is,I wasn't angry with any of them but James.I took out that anger on Maxi too.I shouldn't have.

-

"It doesn't have to be like." I heard a voice.I didn't open my eyes yet.Someone's head was touching mine.No ego,no attitude,no anger.Can a person like this even exist? Was he really a human or an angel disguised as one?

I opened my eyes.He looked at me and gulped.

"I am sorry.'' He whispered and was about to walk away but I grabbed his wrist.He looked at his hand then at me.

"I am sorry." I whispered.

"I am sorry you are here because of me." He almost cried.

"Come here!" I made him lay beside me.

"No, it's not your fault.I was angry." I whispered.

"You came to save my life.You were ready to sacrifice yourself for me." I whispered as I touched his cheeks.

"And you jumped over me to save me." He whispered.

"I am sorry I have hurt you so much." He said.

"No,I am sorry.You are too good for me and I am just a f*****g human stain." I whispered.

"No,no you're not.You are a good person." He said.

"How am I good person? I've said so many things to hurt you intentionally." I asked.

"You just disguise yourself with such coldness.I understand that you were hurt and you just altered your pain into anger.That's normal." He whispered.

"Are you a human?" I frowned.

"I...um.I am sure that I am or else I wouldn't be having frozen shoulder." He replied.

"Maybe an angel in a human body?" I asked.

"No.I am no angel." He replied.

"Did you really do all those for me?" I asked as I looked into his eyes.

"I did." He smiled.

I leaned forward and captured his lips.He immediately licked my lips then my tongue.He hands grabbed my jaw tightly.Such aggression, passion and so fierce.

"Don't leave me,please." He whispered.

"I won't." He smiled.

"I don't deserve you." I whispered.

"Bradley was right.I really am a whore." I sighed.

"Don't say that.You are a really good person." He comforted me.

"I am sorry for being a homewrecker." I looked at him.

"No..." He whispered.

"Why do you think that I don't deserve you?" He asked.

"Do you want to know?" I asked.

"Of course.I want to know everything about you." He said as he embraced me tighter.

"It's a bit graphic." I warned him.

"It's alright." He replied.

"Well, I was a really really spoiled child to begin with." I said.

"I can tell." He chuckled as I laughed back.

"When I was 18,I moved out of the house.They really loved me and I only realize that now.Although,I wasn't staying with them,my dad always paid for every thing I needed.After finishing high school,I joined med school and got to be a surgeon here." I whispered.

"A surgeon? Are you a surgeon?" He asked.

"I was." I whispered.It broke my heart everything I thought of my past.

"I...My life was going brilliantly good.When I was a resident,I was promoted to attending within a very short time.In fact,I didn't have to be an intern in the beginning because Bradley was so impressed with me.When I was 24,I was an attending surgeon of this hospital.I was the best.Until one night, despite having a surgery scheduled next morning,I went to party that night.I was drunk and I came hungover the next morning.I quickly entered the operating room.I didn't have the courage to give my surgery to someone else because of my ego.I was drunk.I didn't know what I was doing.I accidentally damaged the person's aorta and he died shortly after that.We tried so much but a man cut open like this,bleeding from the main vein,there was nothing they could do." I wiped my tears.

"Hey,hey." He laid down beside me and held me in his arms.

"It's alright.You didn't do it on purpose." He said.

"I wish I never went partying that night.I used to be the best cardio surgeon but now I am nothing but a cheap physiotherapist." I rolled my eyes.

"After that incident,I thought I was getting fired and of course I should've been but Bradley offered me to be the a physiotherapist and said that no one will know about it." I said.

"So I am just an cardiologist now.I treat patients with heart problems." I added.

"That's also really good you know." He replied.

"And you know... whatever happens, it's for the best." He smiled at me.

"You are right." I smiled.

"If I wasn't a physiotherapist,I wouldn't have met you either and my life would still be boring." I said.

"You're really beautiful." He said,all of a sudden.

"You are really handsome,James." I whispered and embraced him.
