- Are you really sure you'll be okay? – Priscilla asked for the tenth time.

- Yes, getting out of a wheelchair to bed is not such a difficult task, you can go to work calmly. – The brunette replied smiling.

Priscilla had to go to the hospital, it was her on-call day, but she was terrified of leaving Natalie home alone.

The brunette stared at Natalie for a few seconds.

- Okay, if you need anything, anything at all, call me.

The brunette laughed at Priscilla's concern.

- Okay, I'll call you, I promise.
Priscilla smiled and opened the front door.

- Bye Naty, take care.

- I'm going Pri, bye.

The brunette walked out the door smiling.

He arrived at the hospital just before the shift started, and found Lauren in her office.

- Jauregui, you don't have your own room? - Asked throwing the bag on the small sofa.

- Yes, but yours is cooler...

Priscilla smiled.

- How's Natalie doing? - Lauren asked.

- Well... But she's having those pains, you know? It's good to start right away with the prosthesis if she wants to go to the wedding, because I think she'll take a little bit of getting used to.

Lauren nodded.

- Ok, if the wound is well healed, I think you can bring her here, to see how she gets along with the prosthesis, I think it's Alexandra who's there in physiotherapy today, go talk to her. She loves You.

- She doesn't love me... We only had... Some intimate moments... But now she's not single anymore and we're just friends, ok?

- It's really good.

- And Lauren, what the fuck was that 'I think I'm in love' in French at my house yesterday? Don't say it was just any phrase because I know you better than you know yourself!

The green eyes smiled.

- Since you don't speak and Natalie doesn't speak either, I decided to speak myself, right...

- And who said I'm in love? Priscilla asked totally defensively.

- Priscilla... I also know you better than you do. Lauren smiled and made Priscilla lower her head, with no answers. – And there's another thing… You know that Camz and I don't hide anything from each other right?

Priscilla knitted her brows, not understanding where her friend was going.

- And last night Camz got a call from Natalie, saying she had called you "Pri" and thatbyou didn't seem to mind, and as I remember, it's been at least two years since I've heard that nickname. ..

Priscilla sighed.

Okay, okay, okay Jauregui... I can't hide from you. I like her but that doesn't change anything ok?

- But of course it changes! It means that you are officially surpassed by Marcela!” - she smiled.

Priscilla rolled her eyes but couldn't help but smile.

- Yeah... It seems so... But... why did she call Mila, to say she had called me that way?

- Because I told her not to call…' Lauren said. The brunette didn't want to mention that Natalie already knew a little about Priscilla and Marcela's history. – And it was cute… She sounded pretty desperate on the phone according to Camz.

Priscilla smiled.

- Okay, let's work then.

- Let's go.

The two women left Priscilla's office and went to different sides to begin another shift.

It was after midnight when Priscilla had a little time to go to physiotherapy to talk to Ale.

- Lex, do you have a little time? - She asked.

- Priscilla... I'm dating, I can't do these things anymore. – The other woman said, while she was packing her things to leave.

Priscilla laughed.

- Is not it. I just want to talk to you.

- Oh, yeah, sorry. Sit down, what do you need? - Alexandra spoke a little
embarrassed.

- I want to know... If tomorrow you'll be here in the afternoon...

- And yes, because?

- It's just that I kind of trust you more than the other physical doctors and I have a friend who had her leg amputated a short time ago and I wanted to bring her here to
start training to walk with a prosthesis...

Alexandra smiled at Priscilla confidence.

- You can bring her here, I make a point of making her my patient, since she is a friend of yours.

- Thank you Lex. So I'll see you tomorrow afternoon.

- I'll be waiting Pri.

The brunette left the room of the other and went back to her shift, which was being completely stressful.

Natalie woke up after nine-thirty and lay in bed, unwilling to get up.

It was half past ten when the brunette heard the front door open and minutes later. Priscilla walked into the room, a tired smile on her face.

- Hey! Are you awake yet? – The brunette asked sitting in front of Natalie.

- Yeah... I woke up a while ago. – The brunette spoke smiling. – How was the shift?

Priscilla sighed and tossed the sneakers she wore away.

- Tiresome, stressful... - She spoke as she ran her hand over her shoulder in order to relieve the tension.

- You... Want me to give you a massage to relax you? - Natalie asked shyly.

- Oh, no, no need... I'm used to it.

- Seriously, come here, it's the least I can do you're hosting me at your house.

Priscilla smiled.

Fine. – The brunette easily accepted, because she was really tired to discuss anything and a massage wouldn't do any harm.

She sat on her back in front of Natalie, who started with small circles on the brunette's shoulder, then massaged with both hands.

- Our Lady Natalie, you are wonderful ... - The brunette spoke already sleepy.

The brunette smiled.

- I used to do this when my students were very tense, it helps to relax.

- Very much… - Priscilla closed her eyes, enjoying Natalie's gestures.

Natalie massaged slowly, making all the tension in the brunette's body disappear.

- Fine? – The brunette asked.

- Uhum… - Priscilla moaned.

Some time later and Natalie stopped, and realized that the brunette had fallen asleep.

She lowered her own body to rest her back against the headboard, making Priscilla do the same.

The brunette back was on Natalie stomach and the brunette slowly stroked the black hair that rested on her chest.

Her eyes, as much as she wanted to, did not leave Priscilla. Natalie was smiling with the relaxed expression that the brunette had on her face, her lips parted, the little sighs she let out every now and then.

Natalie didn't know how it had happened so quickly, she just knew she was madly in love with the woman sleeping on top of her.
