Nikita stared up at the ceiling as she tried to close her eyes on this evening. She turned her head and saw that Michael was shifting in bed, almost like he couldnt sleep either. Nikita stared at the ceiling again, willing herself to just stop thinking and to go to sleep. But her mind was on overdrive and she finally sighed. Michael, why didnt you tell me about the building?
Michael heard Nikitas question, but he wanted to think that he had heard it wrong. There was no way that Nikita had found out about the building. Kita? This condo?
No, Nikita swallowed hard. She hoped that she was wrong, but she knew better. The one where Birkoff is working.
Michael winced and paused. Kita it was just business.
Nikita sat up in bed and looked down at Michael. Then am I just business?
Michael heard that hurt tone in Nikitas voice and immediately sat up in bed while flicking the light back on. No, Nikita you arent business.
Nikita looked at Michael and turned her head to the side. Why didnt you tell me what you were doing?
It was a business deal and some things I have to deal with, Michael explained as he pushed his hair back and leaned his head back against the headboard. Please dont make this larger than it has to be.
Nikita stared at the wall and shivered as she pulled her good knee up to her chest. Its a four story building. Thats kind of large.
Michael looked at the back of Nikitas head and just wanted to see her face. He would rather looked at her hurt face than look at her back and not see her at all. Kita, Im not used to being with someone Ive always been kind of a lone wolf and I get a plan in my head and I just want to execute it I really wanted to do things for me for you and it wasnt meant to slight you at all.
Nikita turned to those words to study Michaels face. His green eyes showed that he was pained with the thought that she was upset about what was going on. She shook her head slightly. Michael, you are up to something.
I cant explain everything
Birkoffs job?
Nikita, please
Or what about offering Kate a space at the building? Nikita challenged and Michael was taken back. He was stunned to hear that Nikita had found out about that. Kate had said that she wasnt going to tell Nikita until she had put her notice in at the physical therapy center. Kate told you
No, Nikita swung her head from side to side. She had noticed that Kate was so happy the past few days and that she wasnt even upset about the equipment that couldnt be fixed. At first, Nikita thought it was Jurgen making Kate happy, but Nikita swallowed hard. You had bills delivered here the man who delivered them told me all about the work that he had finished at the building for you and the physical therapy center you put into your new building.
Man, Michael swung his head from side to side. That was a stupid move on his part. He didnt want Nikita to feel like she had to support him in this and he didnt want it to bother her. Im sorry about that, Nikita I didnt want work to come here.
Because I cant handle the thought of you working? Nikita shook her head from side to side. She rubbed her forehead as she felt a headache coming on. She couldnt stop the tears while she did not want to cry.
Hearing Nikitas tears, Michaels heart broke. Kita I just wanted to help those friends that have helped us out Birkoff left the police department and Jurgen left the ER Mick I believe is starting to look for new patients they all need space and they have done so much for us I wanted to help them and give us all somewhere that we would still all have the chance to see each other and it was some place that wasnt involved with MJS and I know that it looks like I was trying to control things and maybe I really was, but I didnt mean too.
Nikita pushed at her tears as she shook her head from side to side. Stop Michael it isnt just about that.
Michaels heart sunk as he was sure that Nikita now doubted them. He couldnt let that happen! He had been idiotic to think that he should just do this work and not tell Nikita about everything. It probably belittled Nikita and he never intended for that to happen.
Ill tell you everything even what Birkoff is working on although I hope that it is just a sick delusion that is in my head or some sort of paranoia Ill tell you every thing I bought for Kates new Center and Ill let you come to the meetings with Mick and Jurgen that I have scheduled you can be a part of everything, Michael rattled out and Nikita looked at Michael. I dont want your career.
Nikita dropped her head and clutched it into her hands. You have moved on you are doing work again and although I am here to help you I know that I cant go back to being a therapist I dont want know Im to do or what Im to do
Michael had not thought about that bothering Nikita. He thought that she was content on trying to heal and get better. She was doing better, but she still had a lot to do before Michael even wanted her to think about those things. She didnt even have to work if she didnt want too. Kita you need to heal
I need to be productive at time beyond you. I dont know what the rest of my life is going to be like I cant have children so I wont be at home taking care of a baby what am I going to do Nikita groaned at the end as the headache clobbered her. She should have addressed all of this with Michael sooner. As soon as she knew about the building. Instead, she hid the fact that she knew. Now the ultimate revenge of her being silent was happening.
Plus, she hadnt told Michael about her own nightmares and she knew that she was being hypocritical.
Lay back down, Nikita Ill get you a hot towel for the headache Michael placed his hands on Nikitas shoulders, easing her back down while she had no more strength to fight against his suggestion. She tried to take a deep breath, but the pain was so bad.
Here, Michael declared as he touched her shoulders and helped her back up. Take the medication first
Nikita took the pill and swallowed it down without the water that Michael was offering. He then eased her back down and returned to the bathroom. Seconds later he had the popping hot towel in his hands. He placed it on Nikitas head and turned off the lights. Just breathe, Nikita and dont worry Ill never do anything like that again I swear.
Michael I havent told you about the nightmares Nikita continued to cry as she tried not to.
You talking about nightmares and things that had happened to you by the arms of some very sick men is nothing like me not telling you about a business deal, Michael declared as he rolled closer to Nikita. He touched his fingers to her cheeks and then down to her shoulders.
His touch was distracting her and Nikitas tears soon ended. Her head was still pounding, but she was drifting to sleep.
Im so sorry, Kita
