Indestructible Desire
see it’s from Kayden.
     
    Kayden:

    ~Kayden
     
    Me:
    I <3 u more ;) I’ll surprise u w/dinner. I’m so nervous about today :-/
    <3 the new car btw, u r a life saver! OHH I got a surprise for you!
    xoxo Savannah
     
    I send the text to Kayden along with a picture attached of me wearing my new wig. He is going to be totally shocked when he opens the picture. Within seconds Kayden has text me back.
     
    Kayden:
    U didn’t dye ur hair did u?! And glad u like the new ride ;)
    <3 ur shocked boy toy
     
    As I'm laughing out loud at Kayden’s text, Alec looks back at me and smiles. “Kayden just texted me.” I say, holding my phone up. All I need is my body guard thinking I’ve lost my marbles and sitting back here laughing at myself. I quickly type a reply to Kayden’s text. I know exactly what he’s doing. He’s distracting me with these text messages, helping take my mind off the car ride. I have to admit, its working.
     
    Me:
    Nooooo I didn’t dye my hair! Brooklyn bought me a wig, she said u will love having a wild redhead in the bedroom. I will love the new car more once we christen it like the orange one ;)
    xoxo<3 ur naughty nympho
     
    ***
     
    My doctors’ appointments went okay. My surgeon Dr. Willow said my stitches are dissolving and my incision is healing up fine. She said my ribs could continue to be sore for weeks. She said my memory loss is nothing to be concerned about. It’s expected with a head injury and after experiencing something as traumatic as I have.
     
    She refilled my prescription for my pain medicine and told me to come back in two weeks for another follow up. She thinks seeing Dr. Wilcott will help me with my anxiety, and to cope with everything. Putting my wig back on, I step out of Dr. Willow’s office and spot Alec waiting against the wall in the hospital corridor. “Ready, Miss. Livingston?” Nodding his head at me, we make our way out to the parking lot.
     
    As we approach the doors to leave, my feet freeze in place. I spot a man around Zak’s height, build, and same hair style walking in through the hospital doors. Panic shoots through my body making my entire body numb.
     
    “Is everything okay?” Alec asks resting his hand on my arm. I can’t speak, my body is shaking, and I can’t get my mouth to work. My heart is beating so hard and fast, it feels as if it’s going to explode.
     
    The guy walks by and smiles at us. I then realize it’s not Zak and find my body beginning to relax. Looking over at Alec, my head is spinning from the panic attack I just experienced. “What? Sorry. I’m okay, I just thought…” my words trail off as I watch the man step onto one of the elevators.
     
    “We don’t want to be late to your appointment, so we best get going.” Before I can answer, Alec is walking through the doors, so I pick up my pace to keep up with him. My chest is still extremely sore, so the fast movements are not the best thing for me to be doing right now. Holding my hand over my abdomen, I follow Alec through the parking lot to the new car.
     
    Within a few minutes we are making our way through the busy streets of Houston. Dr. Willow has an office in one of the buildings down the road from Kayden’s Beaumont Offices Building. I am hoping to catch him after my appointment to let him know how everything went, instead of sending it through a text or waiting until tonight to tell him.
     
    My phone rings, making me jump. It’s playing one my mom and dad’s songs, so I know instantly it’s one of them. Looking down I see my mother’s face on my screen. “Hey, mom.”
     
    “Hey, honey. How are you feeling?”
     
    Resting my head against the back seat I gaze out the window. I am five minutes away from my shrink’s office. Now I have to talk to my mom before I get there. I will probably show up a blubbering mess. Every time I talk to my parents about
