Chapter 16: Start again?

I am sorry, Don't leave me.
I want you here with me.
I know that your love is gone.
I can't breathe, I'm so weak.
I know this isn't easy.
So don't tell me that your love is gone, that your love is gone.”
                                - Slander.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The amount of stress I feel is overwhelming. This can't be happening right now. This is absurd.

They must've done something wrong.

I can't stay another day in this hospital with this hospital food.

I want spicy food. I wanna go home.

“ You sure that I can't go home early?”
I ask Vladimir the question I've been asking for a thousand years.

He sighs.

“ Yes, darling. I am sure.”

I let out a loud whine and cross my arms.
I am acting like a spoiled child but who cares when it's hospital and its food.

“ Please Val! Can't you do something? You are the King.”

I plead.

He just shakes his head.

I get my best puppy dog expression.
“ For me.”

He is eyeing my face and I know I got him.

He lets out a sigh of defeat. I smirk.

“ You are such a vixen.” He comes up and grabs my face and gives me a short kiss. Enough to make my toes curl and lift me bridal style.

“ Wait! We aren't going to inform the doctor?”

He just smiles.
“ Sweetheart, I am the King. What I do, goes.”

I just laugh and shake my head.

“ Okay let's go home then King Xavier.”

He looks down at me as we pass by the hospital staff all looking in our direction.

“ Just Vladimir. Your Val.” I smile and put my head on his heart.

He makes me sit in his car.

He comes around the other side and starts driving.

“ Let's turn up the music.” I impersonate a DJ as best as I could resulting in an amused look from Val.

I turn up the radio and a song comes up that I don't recognize.

Well, I don't know most of the songs.

~ Say you remember me.
Standing in a nice dress staring at the sunset babe~

I jump in my seat as Val belts out the lyrics rather loudly.
I grip my heart in terror as it seems to want to get out of my chest.

He then turns towards me.

~ Red lips and rosy cheeks. Say you'll see me again even if it's just in your~

He screams out. ~Wildest dreams~

As I overcome the shock, I bust out laughing. I laugh so much that tears were coming out of my eyes.
He starts laughing too but I can't seem to stop. I never knew the prim and proper Vladimir had this side too.

“ That was terrific.”

He then suddenly turns to me with an alarmed expression.

“ I forgot to tell you something.”
