Wrath was over, The Outlaw had laid a drink offer on the table for Arik Stormbreaker as he left the ring without an answer and walked to the back. As he parted the curtain however all offers in his mind were expired...it was something he did for show and on this night there were much larger pressing matters on the mind of Aaron Holiday.
He didn't go back to his room, take the time to shower or change his clothes, instead he headed straight for the parking garage and climbed inside his truck and left the arena with haste. His destination...an undisclosed hospital in New York City to a private room where his recovering wife laid.
With his foot on the gas, the Hemi engine roared out from the Dodge as he speeded down the streets, his left hand gripped the steering wheel feeling the rumble and with his free hand he reached into the glove box and pulled out his phone pressing a few buttons and then holding it to his ear. The phone rang a few times and then the other end picked up, it was the voice of a female but not the one he was expecting...
[Nurse] "Hello?"
[Holiday] "Umm, Hi who is this?"
[Nurse] "Sorry sir but before I can disclose any information I need to know who you are and for whom your calling."
[Holiday] "Who I am? I'm Aaron Fuckin' Holiday and I'm calling for my wife Sara!"
[Nurse] "Ahh yes, you indeed fit the cocky demanding person your wife described you to be."
[Holiday] "Described? You mean she's been awake and no one has let me know? What a perfect reminded of why I try to avoid seeing you guys as all cost! Anyways since she's awake can you put her on the phone?"
[Nurse] "At the moment I can't, she's still recovering from surgery and..."
[Holiday] "SURGERY?!? AND YOU DIDN'T FUCKING LET ME KNOW?!?!?!?"
[Nurse] "Well that wasn't up to us, we were going to call but she didn't know how you'd feel about it. I've been waiting here by the phone for your call all night just to tell you when you called she's ok and you'll have to come down and see for yourself, but judging by the background noise it sounds like you're already on your way."
Holiday hangs up the phone not saying another word to the nurse and shoves it in his pocket and mutters under his breath...
[Holiday] "Damn hospital! John cuts all the medical care from the roster and I'm paying for everything in full and they can't even let me know what's going on! And that crap he sent out to all of us today about earning our keep and doing something for free for the good of the company, I'm PAYING TO CLEAN UP HIS MESSIAH'S MESS!"
Holiday's hand smacks the stereo and he cranks up the music and stomps down on the pedal and speeds off even faster to the hospital. About a Pantera Song and a half later he pulls up outside of the hospital and gets out of the truck leaving it in the hands of the valet and makes his way into the building and up the steps to the floor that Sara is located. Quickly he dashes down the hell, speeding past the nurses much like he did the traffic on the streets below until he at last comes to her room. He pauses for a second to catch his breath and regain his composure and turns the handle and steps inside shutting the door behind him.....
"Hello again, WOW you're also just as good looking as she said you were too.".....Came the voice of the same nurse whom Aaron had spoke with on the phone as she greeted him with a smile. She sat in a chair at the side of the bed but Aaron barely paid her any mind as his eyes scanned a body laying before him wrapped in bandages from the midsection up.
[Holiday] "What have you all done with my wife?"
[Nurse] "That is your wife."
Her face was hidden behind cloth and gauze, and Aaron was beside himself with disbelief. Her injuries didn't require such extensive measures so why all the bandages? He made his way to her side and clasped his hand in between his. To his surprise she sat up a bit and spoke....
"Aaron is that you?"
Her hands reached for her face and she grabbed a corner of the bandages and began to remove them....
TBC
