Mia

A few hours ago....

I woke up all groggy, restless and felt like something heavy was sitting on my chest and my throat felt dry. I opened my eyes and took in my unfamiliar surroundings, white walls and a small window on the side. The smell of medicine and fluid filled my nostrils and to my right was a monitor showing off my pressure and heartbeat readings.

When I looked down I noticed a small needle was attached to my left hand along with an IV fluid. My heart started racing again. Old memories of me in the hospital 2 years ago flashed before me and how I was in pain everyday, coughing and struggling to breathe. I hated those memories. They were my biggest nightmares and they often kept me up at night up till this very day.

Cold sweat started forming around my body and I started to panic. I wanted to rip off the needle from my hand and go home right now because I hated the sight of hospitals after that incident. I ripped the needle out and blood started gushing out from my hand.

" Fuck." I cursed out in pain. I would worry about my bleeding hand later but first I needed to get out of here but before I got out of the bed my mom walked in.

Oh great she is here.

" Omg you are awake..... Your hand is bleeding." She panicked and quickly rushed to my side.

"What the hell did you do?" She scanned my bleeding hand and started yelling at me. For fucks sake I dont need this right now. I have to get out of here.

"Mia what is wrong with you?" I heard my father yell at me and I looked up at him and he had a scowl on his face while he stared at my bleeding hand.

Fuck they are both here.

" I'm fine, it's fine."I told them and tried to calm them down.

"Why am I here, why are you here?". I questioned them but I actually wanted to ask that question myself. How did I even end up here? Before I could think of any possible reasons, a deep voice answered for all of us.

"You're here because you collapsed at work Ms Young. I'm Dr. Aryan by the way." I looked up and I saw the most beautiful pair of light brown eyes behind a pair of black rimmed glasses. His hair was tousled. His 6'0 frame easily towered over my 5'0. He wore a mask so I couldn't exactly see his whole face. He had a confident and calming aura that comforted me a little but that feeling died as soon as it came because I started wincing in pain from my bleeding hand.

His eyes instantly moved down to my bleeding hand and he became angry.

"Fuck." He cursed and immediately went back out again and came back in with a bunch of things. Alcohol swab, bunch of cotton balls and a tape. He quickly placed all those things on the bed next to me and kneeled down before me. He was eye level at this point and I could smell his scent from here. It had a woody and masculine scent that caused my heart to flutter. I usually hated those rough types of smell but I liked this one. He held my hand on his palm and quickly started cleaning up the pouring blood from my hand. I could feel the heat radiating from his skin and it instantly caused me to blush, and I tried my best to hide it.

I hated showing any form of emotion to anyone and I certainly wasn't going to show it to a guy who was just doing his job. Few minutes later he wrapped up my hand and looked me dead in the eye and questioned me.

"Did you rip it out of your hand?" He asked me.

I couldn't see his whole face but I knew he was not happy about what I did.

"No." I lied.

"Yes."My mom answered and I glared at her.

"Ms. Young, please refrain from putting yourself in any form of harm because I will not tolerate it."

It was something about the way he commanded me that I absolutely hated, like he owned me and that he had a right to instruct me. He thought he could lecture me, Mia Varenna Young please, it would take more than a doctor with a beautiful pair of light brown eyes to intimidate me.

" I have your scan."He said as he looked at his laptop.

"It seems you have strained your heart too much and given your past history this shouldn't be taken lightly as it could have serious impacts in the future."

"What do you suggest we do, doctor?." My mom asked him. Worry was marred all over her face.

"I'm gonna prescribe some meds for now and I need Ms.Young to keep up with her eating habits. She is too thin and that could also possibly be another factor that contributed to today's incident. I need to monitor her heart very closely so I need to see her once every week for now."

"Okay we can do that," My father replied to him.

Doctor light brown eyes and my parents were so busy discussing about me with each other like I wasn't there and I absolutely hated it. They were talking about my health and didn't even care to include me in the conversation. I was growing furious by the minute.

"Enough." I stood up and walked towards them.

"Thank you for your service Doctor....

"Aryan."He said in a cool demeanour.

"Aryan. I understand that I have strained my heart and I need to be careful. I will take the meds and eat well but however I can't see you every week. I have important meetings and a busy schedule. I could probably do it once a month."

"No can do, I will see you once every week. You need to be monitored and we can't afford to take any risks."

" Mia just listen to him stop being so stubborn you always do this."My mother said and my dad agreed with her. OMG this is the worst. Everybody is just ganging up on me and bullying me at this point.

"Will any of you just listen to me?" I yelled at all of them this time.

"No."They all said in unison.

"If that is all I will leave now and Ms. Young can be discharged for the day." He glanced at me before he walked away. How dare he instruct me like that?

At that moment I knew he was gonna be an absolute nuisance in my life.
