love hurts. (completed)

physical therapy

I rested my cheek on my hand as I looked around the waiting room. Fergal insisted on coming to my first physical therapy session so Daniel's Mom ended up having to watch the girls. I flinched a bit as I felt a hand wrap itself around mine. That's when I felt a hot breath on my ear.

"If you ever fucking flinch again when I touch you, you will be punished."

Daniel whispered. I nodded as the doctor came and called my name. I swallowed as Daniel pushed my wheelchair to the physical therapy area while Fergal trailed behind.

"Okay, so first I wanna try and get her up and walking. Do one of you wanna support her while she walks?"

The doctor asked Daniel and Fergal. Fergal glanced over at Daniel, who was too busy on his phone.

"I'll do it."

Fergal said as he walked over to me. The doctor   then instructed Fergal on how to help me up. I smiled as I placed my hands on Fergal's shoulder. I giggled as I looked into Fergal's eyes. The blue eyes that always captivated me.

"One step at a time."

Fergal whispered as he looked at my feet. I took one tiny step before falling into Fergal's arms.

"Yes! I'm so proud of you!"

Fergal said as he helped me back to my wheelchair. I smiled as I looked over at Daniel. But my smile quickly faded as I saw the anger in his eyes.

"I'm exhausted."

I said as Fergal pushed my wheelchair into the bedroom.

"I know you are. But I'm proud of you."

Fergal said with a smile. That's when Daniel walked in.

"I got her Fergal. Can you check on Juliet and Dakota?"

Daniel asked. Fergal nodded as he walked out of the room, closing the door behind him.

"I wanna try and get you walking."

Daniel said with a bit of an evil smile.

"Daniel, I'm so tired from therapy and-"

"Shut up. We're doing this."

He said as he roughly picked me up.

"Ow! Daniel, you're hurting me!"

I whined.

"Shut up and take a step like you did with Fergal."

Daniel said. I placed my shaking hands on Daniel's shoulders. I took one step and immediately fell down. Except, unlike Fergal, Daniel let me fall to the ground.

"You stupid bitch! You can't do anything right! You can't even fucking walk you useless bitch!"

Daniel yelled as he started kicking me in the ribs. That's when Fergal came in.

"What the hell is- did you fucking drop her?!"

Fergal yelled as he pushed Daniel to the side and picked me up. I sobbed into his shoulder as he carried me to the living room.

"Shhh, don't cry. I got you. You're okay."

He said as he kissed my cheek.
