This is ridiculous. I don't know where my car is and I have no idea where I am going. Who knew hospitals were this big. These hallways go on forever. Oh darn, that is unit 2, not a hallway. Nice going.
Wait! This lady might know.
"Excuse me, Ma'am. I'm looking for a patient. Could you tell me how on Earth I find a map in this place or how to get to unit 9."
"Sorry, I just started. I'm lost here too. You are on the wrong side of the hospital to get anywhere. All infectious disease...oh god. I..."
Okay...find car. Just...just find the goddamn car. Someone just ate that lady and it looked an awful lot like Dominic. Of course it wasn't him. Just routine day surgery. Nothing wrong here. Oh fuck. I have to go get him.
Haha. Of course. Horror movie hallways. Beautiful. Lets shout and make myself noticeable now and the picture of stupidity is complete.
"Dominic? Hun? I came to meet you when you said you were sick. I wasn't aware you just wanted a snack. That poor receptionist was a bit of an inappropriate choice...Dom?"
He's crying. I'm not even sure what to do. Crying is not something I'm used to from Dom. Maybe I can just talk him down. What the hell is wrong with him?
"Sydney...sydney help. I..I don't know what's happening. I thought it was just a routine thing but when I got here...I got so much sicker. My fever was so hot I shouldn't have been functioning but...but I didn't even notice. The doctors were scrambling but I felt so strong. I...I told them to stop. Stop poking and prodding and coddling. They wouldn't stop touching me and I hated it. Right then they seemed so strange and frightening. Then I felt strong...invincible. So I just gave one a tiny little poke...you know, to get them to listen. She hit the crash cart that was against the wall. Should have been no big deal. I broke her neck. She just...she just laid there. I'm scared Syd. I want to go home and I want this to go away....Syd...why are you hiding? I know you are in here. I just need help."
That was no plea. A growl if ever I heard one. Dom wouldn't hurt me though, would he? I have to help. He's mine so I have to.
"Dom...just stay calm and wait. Can you do that? I'm not scary, right Dom? Not dangerous. Just weak. Just so so weak. So...be careful."
He stammers and takes a deep breath. I remember when he did this last. Before that fight, the one where he was so goddamned angry. He didn't even want to do it because he was so mad. Can't back out. Promoters will kill you. He just breathed, long and loud, and let the world disappear. Just Dom up there. All alone.
"I'll help you. We are going to find the car and then maybe...I don't know. We'll fix it."
He half drags me to the parking lot. No words, just desperate to get out. I look helplessly but I cannot remember where I came in...where my car is...did I even take it?
His voice is shaky and filled with rage. "Where is it?"
The tears run down my face. God, I'm terrified of him. This is so strange. My safe place and I'm terrified.
"I don't know. Just walk, Dom. We'll find..." A family stops beside us and stares.
"Are you okay, Miss?" Three or four of the kids are asking.
"He's...he's sick. He needs to go home but I cannot find the car for the life of me. I'm not sure what we'll do. I think someone might have stolen it."
God, there is so many of them. Why did I say that? I wanted them to leave. He could hurt them. He's so careful with me though. He just killed that woman but he's really cautious with me. Still just Dom. They just invited us to come with them...Christmas. I forgot entirely. We never do Christmas.
New baby and they invite us. Dom excepts before I can say no and I know who dinner is in his eyes. I don't want this. Let this end. Let me wake up.
