STELLA'S POV

The door swung open revealing a feminine figure visible behind it.

"Is there something I can help you with?" the beautiful lady asked me with confusion evident on her face.

She had light brunette hair that was gracefully pushed to one side with green eyes shimmering with curiosity. And full pink lips that pursed into a thin line.

She looked to be in her early forties perhaps?

"I-I-....can you...uh...help me please..!?!" I rushed out; out of breath, growing inpatient with every passing second with me still being outside.

The goddess like woman took a minute to look at my attire. Her eye widening in surprise and puzzlement.

Her eyes traveling to my wild hair, dingy jacket and oversized sweatpants that looked like they bathed in dirt.

Her eyes had frozen at my bloody pants leg and then quickly glanced at my braced arm. She covered her mouth with her hands in utter shock. Tears started brimming in her green orbs. Her face eloping in sadness.

She uncovered her mouth to continue to speak.

"Oh dear heavens of course! Please come in." The women who I haven't learned the name of quite yet reassured softly. She quickly stepped aside to let me in.

I took no time to wobble into her house, immediately closing the door and locking it of course not without looking through the peephole just in case.

I whip around to face the woman trying to mask any sign of panic or fear.

Not that it was hard anyway.

"Come sit down! Let's hurry and treat your leg hm?" Her panic expression was comforting for some odd reason. The way her eyes held nothing but worry for my well being. It felt some what... refreshing.

She practically ran to my side; putting my free arm around her shoulder and her other hand on my waist.

She carefully guided me to the nearest couch that was next to a window. Easily setting me down on the soft cushion.

I let out a exhausted breath; feeling much better since I wasn't standing on a bloody leg that throbbed ever so harshly.

The lady paced around in panic before suddenly shouting someone's name.

"George! George come quick!"

I flinch slightly from the yelling. I immediately start playing with my fingers to try and play it off.

After a few seconds; footsteps came rushing in the room. Revealing a well built man who also looked in his forties.

I close my eyes tightly. Trying to deal with the current pain throbbing in my arm and leg.

This gunshot wound hurts like a b!tch and my arm isn't any better.

"Yes honey, is the something wrong?!" The older man rushed out. Before checking his possible wife for any injuries.

"Can you please come and check this girl!" The lady said still panicking.

The man glanced at me, then my arm and then my leg.

"Oh lord..." the man said. Mirroring the same emotions the lady had when she first caught sight of my wound's.

"Ok, honey can you go get some towels, utensils and some warm water?" The man said as he walked closer to me.
