"When you're back to your senses, we're going to talk about what you just did." "You are in trouble with me," I told Johnny once the door had clicked shut, leaving us alone together. "I'll be back in a bit."Īnd then she turned around and left the room. Nodding slowly, I whispered, "I'll take care of him." "If you feel comfortable staying with him, Shannon, then you can stay."
"There's no point in agitating him," she stated quietly, gaze locked on her son, who was currently nuzzling my stomach.
"I'm so sorry about this," I strangled out as I tried and failed to free myself from his hold. "Take the lights away and stay with me, Shannon like the river." "You are a lizard," I muttered in despair, feeling his mother's eyes on my face. "I just need to –" my words broke off when Johnny wrapped his arms around my waist and clung to me. Kavanagh simply shook his head and led a snickering Gibsie out of the room. "Just you."Īt a loss, I glanced up at his parents who were watching our little wrestling match. "I want you," he groaned, pulling at my arms. "Stop that," I ordered, capturing his rogue hand with my free one. "I'll come with you," he announced, and then proceed to use one hand to rip at his wires. "I have to go," I repeated, feeling completely torn. He was shaking his head and looking up at me with big, wide, high as a kite eyes. I tried to pull my hand free from his, but he wouldn’t let go. "Johnny, I'll come back," I coaxed, exhaling a trembling breath. "What are ya talking about?" Johnny slurred. "Stop this right now! You'll scare the girl." "Johnathon Kavanagh," his mother snapped.
"She's my wife," he announced then, blowing my mind clean open. "Johnny, I know, but I have to go," I whispered, flustered. "No, no, no," Johnny groaned, holding onto my hand with both of his. "I'll try and come back later before the bus leaves, okay?" "Listen, I have to go," I whispered, turning my attention back to Johnny, heart still hammering in my chest. I'll give you a call in a couple of hours." "John, you can take Shannon and Gerard for some breakfast.
"There's a family room on the third floor, but I'll have to ask three of you to leave." "If you're all family, you can rotate," she added. Kavanagh is only allowed one family member to stay with him outside of visiting hours," a female nurse called from the doorway, both startling me and saving me from having to respond to Johnny's statement.
