I Need My Doctor Stat!

Chapter 3

A half a bottle of wine later, Lauren hears a door open and turns to see Emily emerge and carefully close the door behind her. With a sad smile on her face Emily approaches her friend and pulls her into a warm embrace.

As she steps back she says with an apologetic smile: "I know that can't have been easy for you Lauren, needing someone else to heal her, but if it helps I don't think your succubus finds it easy either. I think she needs you more than you know. She is good as new physically but for the emotional part that's all you doc. Go to her, I'm going to take a shower. Take your time. Don't rush." With another quick hug and a whispered thank you from Lauren, the beautiful nymph practically skips down the hall and into the bathroom, closing the door with a resounding click.

Hesitantly Lauren approaches the bedroom door straightening out her blood stained clothes as she goes nervous about what she is going to do when she sees the object of her affection on the other side.

When the blonde enters the room she finds the beautiful succubus sitting on the edge of the bed naked except for the sheet wrapped around her, with her head in her hands. She doesn't look up as the doctor walks slowly toward her.

I hear someone enter the room. It takes but a moment to realize that it is Lauren. I swear I could sense her in a room full of people I am so attuned to her. I can't bring myself to look at her yet. I feel whole again. Healthy. The magnificent forest nymph was very powerful and my body is still thrumming with the remnants of her touch. But my heart clutches in my chest as I think of Lauren waiting outside again while I engage in pleasures of the flesh with someone that isn't her.

She edges closer, hesitant. Is she afraid that I will be angry with her for pimping me out? I take another deep breath before looking up into the deep soulful brown eyes that belong to my... Lauren. I smile at her shyly trying to read the emotions playing across her face.

"Lauren I'm so sor—"

"No, don't apologize, Bo. There is nothing to apologize for, you are what you are and I absolutely love every little thing about you. Even the part you think is a monster. You are the most exquisite creature I have ever come across, I wouldn't change a thing," the blonde says seriously.

"Even Emily? You have seen her right, gorgeous tall supermodel with curves in all the right places." I joke trying to bring a smile to my ex-lover's face. I am rewarded with a shy smile and a slight pinking of her cheeks.

"Yes even Emily," she says with a slight chuckle. Lauren's face turns serious again. "Are you okay Bo? How are you feeling?" She takes a seat beside me and I can feel the warmth of her thigh and the flare of desire that Lauren always seems to reserve for me. I lean into it; this woman is like oxygen to me. I can't live without her; I won't live without her... Nadia be damned.

"I'm healed Lauren see?" and I lower the sheet to show her my now perfect unblemished chest. I am rewarded with an almost nuclear aura of desire that I want to hold close to me forever. I sense the change in my eyes just before I hear a gasp from Lauren. I push down my renewed hunger and take her hand in mine.

"I can't lose you Lauren, it's killing me not being with you, close to you. I have never felt this strongly about anyone before, it's new and scary but I don't want it to ever go away."

"Bo, do you remember what you were talking about in my car on the way over here?" Lauren asked keeping her face neutral.

"Um not really," I mused, "was it something embarrassing?"

"No more like enlightening," Lauren replied. "It was you who removed the curse from Nadia, not the ash, wasn't it Bo?"

I tightened my grip in Laurens hand momentarily lost for words. "Well, I was chatty in the car, wasn't I?" I was trying to make light of the revelation I had accidentally let slip while in my delirious state. When Lauren didn't say anything I said the only thing I could say. "It was the right thing to do, The Ash said it had to be a selfless act, it meant I had to be prepared to let you go. It was the hardest thing I have ever done." We sat in silence for what felt like forever before I gave a little push. "Please say something, Lauren."

"Oh Bo, no one has ever sacrificed so much for me before without expecting something in return," the blonde replied, tears pooling in hers eyes.

"What like lifelong servitude, for instance?" I instantly regretted the words. "Sorry it's not your fault. I'm pretty sure that's why Lachlan told me I could never tell you. Because he wanted your wavering loyalty renewed and he used me and my love for you to get it. Nadia wakes up, you get your girlfriend back and Lachlan takes the credit and you rededicate yourself to the light and him. And I..." I can't finish. All the hurt and anger washes over me again and I think to myself: what about me? What do I get out of it?

"Bo, things with Nadia are complicated. I mean, I spent five years searching for a cure for a disease she didn't have and then I meet you and I feel like my whole world has opened up changed in a moment. You broke down all my barriers, made me feel things I hadn't felt in so long." The blonde sighed and wiped away the stray tears that had managed to escape her expressive brown eyes. "I Love Nadia."

The words feel like a slap but I remain calm, I don't want to say something I may regret. I have certainly done that before. Lauren stares at me for a moment and it feels like she is looking into my very soul. When she starts to speak again there is a certainty in her eyes that I have never seen before. "I love Nadia, but I am not in love with her. Bo you are all I think about from the moment I wake till I lay down at night. Nadia can sense it. She knows that my heart belongs to another... to you." Lauren gives me a shy smile. "I love you Bo, I want to give this... us a go... if you want to that is."

I sit there feeling all my pent up worries and sadness slip away as her words sink in, she loves me. She really loves me. I feel a huge grin form on my lips and I can finally say the words that I have been holding on to for so long.

"I love you, too, Lauren. With all that I am." And with that I lean in to this beautiful woman before me and claim her lips with my own, letting everything else melt away until it is just me and the woman I love.

The End.
