Excerpt:
David
practically flew across the lounge to get to Lauren. The sound of her head
hitting the edge of the black lacquered piano was horrific, his entire being
immediately going into protection mode. He couldn’t get to her fast enough.
Miles was already by her side kneeling next to her as several patrons crowded
around with looks of concern.
David pulled
her into his lap. “Is she bleeding, Miles? Is she breathing?”
“I don’t see
any blood. She’s knocked out cold.” Miles’ face was ghostly white.
David lifted
her into his arms and hurriedly carried her across the room. He was taken aback
by how light she was, realizing she must have lost a lot of weight. A security
guard had arrived by this time letting him know that the paramedics were on
their way. Tim, the bartender ushered them into a small office out of the
public eye. David gently set her on a worn, leather chair and knelt in front of
her, stroking her cheek.
“Lauren?
Lauren, darling please wake up!” He turned to Tim. “Can you please get me some
ice for her head?” Tim nodded and quickly exited.
Miles looked
on and ran his hand through his jet black hair. His bow tie had been loosened
and hung limply around his neck. “One minute she was singing and the next, she
flubbed the intro of our last song and was on the floor. She had a weird
expression. I knew something was wrong.”
David kept
stroking his fingers across her cheeks staring at her face, willing her to open
her eyes. He felt guilty for startling her during the last song. He had wanted
to wait till the show was over and the crowd had thinned out before he
approached her. But hearing her lovely voice echo down the hallway of the hotel
made him desperate to see her, to lay eyes on her after being away for so long.
The anticipation of seeing her again had him muddled from the time he had
arrived in the states—he could hardly concentrate on anything else. Now she was
unconscious, lying helpless before him, making his heart heavy with worry. If
anything were to happen to her….
A small moan
escaped her pink lips, and she shifted in the seat.
“Lauren,
open your eyes. Please, open your eyes,” he pleaded.
Her eyes
fluttered open and immediately pooled with tears staring back at him. “You’re
here,” she whispered. He pulled her gently into an embrace as she started to cry,
clutching the back of his neck. He rocked her silently, his own eyes filling
with tears.
“There,
there, love. It’s all right. Thank God, you’re all right.” He couldn’t let go
of her and did his best to try to maintain his composure. “I missed you so much.
You have to know that,” he whispered into her ear. She nodded, her grip
tightening around him.
