My Boyfriend is My Doctor

CHAPTER 17. First Date

Doctor Michael was now heading to Marnie's hometown in Batangas. He was now pursuing her as he wanted to fully take care of her.

Ding.Dong.

Mrs. Castello immediately went to their front door and opened it. A tall gorgeous man carrying a big bouquet was in front of her.

"Good morning Ma'am. Can I visit Marnie?" Doctor Michael smiled and politely said to Mrs. Castello.

Mrs. Castello was already used to Doctor Michael's regular visit to her daughter Marnie.

He never failed to fascinate her. Doctor Michael regularly visited Marnie since she was brought home.

"Sure. Please come in and have a sit. She was still asleep. I'll wake her up then," Mrs. Castello invited him inside.

"Thank you. Mind if I come with you to take her up?" he asked. He used to come to Marnie's bedroom since he was also the one who checks Marnie's development and recovery status.

"Alright. Please come with me," Mrs. Castello said.

They both headed to Marnie's bedroom then.

"Marnie, wake up. You have an early visitor," Mrs. Castello patted her on her shoulder while she was still sleeping.

Doctor Michael fondly watches Marnie being awakened by her mother. As much as he wanted to be the one to wake her up, he patiently waited for her eyes to open.

Marnie can now walk on her own. Her recovery is quite amazingly fast. Doctor Michael's regular visit helped her a lot.

"Hmmm. Good morning Mom. It's too early. I am still sleepy," she said.

Doctor Michael politely asked Mrs. Castello to leave and let her sleep once again.

Marnie continued her sleep not knowing that Doctor Michael was just on her side and patiently watching her wake up.

He took some photos of Marnie while she was asleep and smiled.

When Marnie finally woke up, she was surprised to see Doctor Michael in front of her seating on her couch.

"Good morning sleepyhead," Doctor Michael approached her and kissed her forehead.

"It's becoming your habit kissing my forehead Michael," she said while her cheeks blushed.

"Why? Don't you like it? Where do you want me to kiss you?" he smiled naughtily.

Marnie can't help but pinch his left arm.

"Ouch! It's also your habit of pinching me." he laughs while hugging her.

It seemed that their hearts connect and they felt the same way of loving each other without asking about their feelings at all.

"Would you like me to help you fix yourself? Your parents were already waiting for us downstairs for our breakfast," she said.

"I'll be your official nurse and doctor for today since nurse Shiela was off today," he said.

"I can do it myself. Just wait for me here okay," she said. She rose from her bed and went to her bathroom to take a quick bath. She already had her clothes with her since she can't change those with him watching her.

She smiled with thinking that he was already there when she woke up early today.

After she took a quick bath, she wore a white dress making her look like a nymph.

Doctor Michael can't take his eyes off when he saw how fresh the newly bathe Marnie was. He can't help himself but approach her and hug her.

"You looked so beautiful Marns," he said sincerely while touching her small face. He raised her chin and gave her a sweet kiss on her soft lips.

Marnie froze as she felt electricity when he kissed her.

"Your lips were so sweet Marns," he said as he was about to give her another kiss. Marnie moved her face and his kiss fell on her soft cheeks.

"Hey. you are too fast," she said.

"Do I need to make it slow?" he said while slowly approaching her face once again.

"Stop it. Mom and Dad were already waiting for us," she said while she blushed.

Doctor Michael smiled when he saw her reaction. She was really like a child.

When the two were going down the stairs, Mrs. Castello and Mr. Castello looked at them. Marnie smiled while Doctor Michael was teasing her.

"They looked so good together Honey," Mr. Castello told his wife.

Mrs. Castello smiled and said," Yes it seemed that they were already mutually in love with each other. Besides Doctor Michael was the one who took care of her when had her accident. He was the one responsible for her fast recovery as well."

"Good morning Mom. Good morning Dad," Marnie greeted her parents and kissed them.

Doctor Michael greeted them as well.

They joined their breakfast according to Marnie's nutritional diet. Castello's family adapt the nutritional diet of Marnie already as they wanted her to feel that she's not alone and that they can eat what she was supposed to eat as well.

"Can I borrow Marnie today Ma'am and Sir? I will tour her here in  Batangas. Only at nearby sceneries only for her to feel the breeze and new surroundings?" Doctor Michael politely asked Marnie's permission.

"It's alright. We knew that you'll take care of our Princess," Mr. Castello said.

"Do you want me to pack some food for you both?"Mrs. Castello asked them.

"No need Mom. We can dine out, right Michael," she asked him. She doesn't want to bring porridge and mashed potatoes on their date.

"Yes, Marns. No need to pack food for us, Ma'am. Thank you," he said politely to Mrs. Castello.

It was supposed to be their first date and she was so excited about it.

Doctor Michael brought her to Lago de Oro Resort. It was a great place to relax. He wanted her to see great scenery and this place is great. He even brought Marnie's painting tools so that if she felt that she wanted to paint, he can easily set it up.

He was right, as when they entered the vicinity of Lago de Oro, Marnie said," "Oh I love the place. It was nice to paint its scenery. It's perfect," she smiled while her eyes were so busy looking around. There were lots of subjects coming into her mind and she wanted to hold her paintbrush already.

She was so thankful that Michael remembered to bring her things.

"Thank you, Michael," she said.

She almost painted four sceneries with different angles around Lago de Oro.

Doctor Michael also requested special nutritional menus for them. Not porridge as he knew that Marnie wanted to taste different this time. Some veggies were converted to meat type and Marnie loved it. Healthy food yet with great taste. She was too exhausted with food she can't even chew. This menu was great.

"Wow it tastes really good," she said when they were having their lunch.

She appreciated everything being done to her by Doctor Michael.

"Can I ask you something Marns," he asked.

"Yes, what is it?" she asked also.

"Can we make this date our official date of our boyfriend and girlfriend relationship?" he asked which almost make Marnie throw up her food at him.

"Hey, you want some water," he offered her a glass of water since she was coughing so hard.

"Is there something wrong with my query?" Doctor Michael asked her.

"Nope, I thought we are already in a relationship. I won't come with you here if I don't have feelings for you either," she said to him which makes Doctor Michael widen his smile. 

"So it's official then. It's the official date of our relationship wherein today you are mine already and I am yours exclusively," he said while kissing her hand.

Marnie smiled and gave him a big hug.

Doctor Michael cupped her small beautiful face and kissed her lips tenderly. It made her knees weak and he hugged her so tight while still kissing her lips. He only stopped when she felt that Marnie was lacking oxygen already.

"That was too closed. I felt that y lips were already swollen," Marnie touched her lips.

Doctor Michael smiled and gave her another kiss. This time Marnie reacted and kissed him back the way he do it.

Doctor Michael send her home before midnight as they will be having their family dinner together with Marnie's family.
