Chapter 2.7 The Recovery
I still had trouble walking around on my own, but this stranger, Nate, he even took his time off to take good care of me. He made meals for me, cuddle me to sleep, and even take a shower with me. He must be in a deep, loving relationship with me prior what had happened.
I still don't get it though.
"Someone wanted you dead, Tim. And I'm going to find out who did it," he hammered his fist on the table. The salt and pepper shakers jumped in fear.
I reached to straighten the shakers, "Why would anyone want me dead? What did I do before? Was I a bad businessman before? Or a corrupted accountant?"
Nate would stop talking every time I questioned my occupation. I could still detect that he's been lying a lot to me since my release from the hospital. And this Damon, if he's my brother, why hasn't he visited me?
I wheeled myself into the bedroom to fold Nate's laundry while he cooked dinner. He was whistling, but I couldn't figure what song it was. I straightened the bedsheets when I finished folding and placed everything neatly in the closet.
I looked out the room, to make sure Nate wasn't around. He'll be really mad if I try this again.
I used all my strength to push myself off the wheelchair and leaned against the mattress. My forearms were in massive pain with all the cuts and bruises, but it didn't matter. I wanted to walk again. My legs were numb by this point as I straightened them to the floor. Balancing myself was as hard as balancing an egg on top of my head.
Finally, with a lot of confidence, I pushed myself away from the bed frame. I looked forward to see that Nate had just set our dining table, and when he turned around, his happy face transformed into a frightened one. I smiled at him because I stood for a second or two, and then fell to the mirrored closet doors. Nate threw his spatula at the table and rushed in to help me up.
"What the fuck do you think you're doing? You really want to break another bone, don't you?"
I waved him off, laughing.
"You think this is funny, Tim?" he stared into my eyes with pure anger.
I bit my bottom lip, a bit upset because he's upset.
He saw the fear in my eyes, but he kept his eye contact with me.
"Sorry," I whispered, barely audible. I looked away from him, and soullessly fixed my eyes on the wheelchair.
He set me back on the wheelchair and kneeled before me, holding my hands.
"Tim Tim," he kissed my hand, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be rude."
I shook my head, trying to keep my tears from falling.
"Tim," he gently held on to my chin. And he leaned in closer, and closer. Our nose touched. Our eyes barely opened. I took a deep breath in, sucking all his sexy body odor as he covered my mouth with his.
I swallowed hard as he passionately pressed his lips against mine. His hands grabbed the side of the wheelchair, and I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him even closer to me.
It ripped my heart when I had to stop and rest, but I kept him only an inch away from my lips.
"Nate, how long have you not made love to me?"
"Four months."
"Do you mind making love to me tonight?"
"I'm afraid so."
I hesitated, not expecting the answer he has given.
"I don't want to hurt you. You're still recovering."
"I wasn't expecting you liking rough sex, Nate," I laughed.
"No... no, Tim. You. Liked rough sex."
"Oh." I was surprised. He chuckled at my innocence.
"I'll consider your suggestion, but right now, you have to eat."
He wheeled me out right in front of my food and he took a seat next to me.
Baked salmon with mashed potatoes with homemade gravy. He watched me as I picked up my fork and took a piece of the fish into my mouth. Mmmm. Delicious.
"I'm glad you liked it. You taught me how to make this, Tim Tim."
"I did? So I'm a great cook?"
"Yes you are," he began to dig in.
