Darkness Chapter 18
JaredI feel like a thirteen-year-old boy when he first realizes his math teacher has boobs. I didn't realize I was speeding until Laynie's giggle pulls me from the street view to her own."Jared slow down." She says with a laugh. When we get there, I want you to make love to me. There shouldn't be a rush, not tonight.She's right. This shouldn't be something we rush. I try to calm the tent in my pants by thinking about Alan in a bikini. There's an image. When we get home, I carry her bridal style giggling into the bedroom and lay her on the bed. Once she is upright and stops laughing, she asks me why I carried her all the way in."I don't remember carrying you over the threshold. Every man should carry his new wife into their new home." I say sadly. I hate that I was such a prick to her before, I hate that I made her marry me in a damn courthouse. Every woman dreams of their wedding. I took that away from her. Something I plan to rectify as soon as I can.She looks at me like I'm

LaynieI find a nurse on the phone making an appointment for a patient. She has long, puffy, curly brown hair and smile that would melt a snowman. Her name badge says Lyla."Okay Hun we will see ya here real soon." She says in what sounds like a southern accent. She hangs up the phone and puts her bright pink pen with a giggly purple spider on the top in her hair as a hairpin. "Oh, hi there. You must be Mrs. Cole. Ya'll done in there already? Need ya discharge paperwork? Candy asked me to get it for ya." She says walking over to the computer."Oh, no my husband is still in there being checked out. I was just wondering if I can speak with nurse Candice. I just need to ask her something." I say hopeful. I really want to get to the bottom of what's going on with her. I am not sure why I feel like I have to solve the mystery with her."Um. Sure hun. She is in her office. Down that hall to the right and make your first left." She says pointing me in the direction of the office.When I
Darkness Chapter 20
JaredLaynie was pretty quiet on the car ride home. She asked me about the appointment and what the doctor expects but hasn't said much else since. The appointment went well. Dr. Toring says my injuries are just about healed. My ribs still hurt a little if I exert myself too much, but other than that I feel great. They gave me different pain meds and I only take them once a day now. I can also start driving. Even though I drove last night, I feel a little better knowing my injuries wouldn't put Laynie in jeopardy. Dr. Jones did a CT scan and a few other tests on me. Told me everything looks fine to him. He needs me to do another one in a few weeks, but he will be back in Jersey by then so Dr. Toring will send him the results and he will call me and discuss my options. For now, we wait. Again. To be honest I'm fine with never remembering. Too much pain may be caused if I do."Laynie? You okay?" I ask getting a little worried about her. We have been parked outside our house for a few m
Darkness Chapter 21
Laynie 9 months agoHe should be here any minute now. God, I hope he is not in a bad mood. Who am I kidding he is always in a bad mood. My phone rings for the thirteenth time today. Its Anna, she has been calling all day for some reason, but I know myself, if I answer I will tell her and I can't let Jared find out through her. Neither of us can hold a secret very well. Jared walks through the door at exactly five o'clock and I go to greet him. He hands me his suit jacket and walks over to the sofa to take his shoes off. His usual routine. Usually he will shower then come out in his sweats to eat dinner, then head to the living room to watch television. On nights like this I don't even get an acknowledgement. Tonight, I plan on changing that. I have to tell him. After leaving the doctor's office a few hours ago I was able to tell the sex of the baby. Jared is going to be so happy it's a boy. We always wanted the boy first."Jared before you shower can I speak with you a moment?" I a
Darkness Chapter 22
JaredI wake up feeling a little off. I feel extremely dizzy and I'm lying on someone's lap. I look around the room and see something I never wanted to. When Laynie told me, she was pregnant last year, I didn't want to admit it. I didn't want to deal with it. As soon as I saw the baby pacifier I knew that everything I had put her through was wrong. So wrong. I have destroyed Laynie like my father destroyed my mother. My father. Shit. I need to call him. I'm going to be late today. The inspectors should be on the cite in a few days and I need to be there.I try to lift my head up but feel a hand on my forehead. I close my eyes hard from being dizzy and try to reopen them. When I see Laynie I'm a little confused. Why am I on her lap?"What's going on? I ask her."Oh God Jared. I was so scared. You fainted an hour ago. I was worried you weren't going to wake up. Thank God." She says holding me in a grappling hug.I pull her arms from me, not wanting her to touch me, not here anyways. She

JaredYesterday I spent all day feeling sorry for myself. I crawled into bed after my heart walked out the door and cried. I cried for Laynie, I cried for my mother, I cried for our child we lost before we were blessed with. I barely ate, didn't shower, I just walked around the entire house going through the motions.Here is where I pushed her into the wall, here is where I called her useless. Here is where I told her to get away from me. I let myself go through every memory of pain I put her in. I re live every bit of agony and let myself relish in it.Today is the day I right all my wrongs. I knock on the door to my father's office and wait for him to answer. I march right past his secretary as she screams at me to stop, so I know he is in here and I know he was informed I'm here. Security has not come to escort me out yet so it seems like he wants to see me.Someone opens the door and I walk in to see my father at his desk on the phone. I look to the body guard with sunglasses on an

Laynie"So, where do you want to start today Laynie?" Jackie asks from her chair. It's the same question she asks every time I walk into her office."I want to talk about my wedding." I say with my head held high. Right after Jared told me to leave I bought a plane ticket back to Minneapolis. I knew that Jared was right. We were too damaging to each other in our current state. It was time for me to come home for a while, get myself better and then start anew. I miss Jared every day. It was only recently I stopped crying at night for him. I love him so much and although he has put me through so much I no longer blame him.As soon as I got back, Anna suggested I start therapy. It was time I worked out everything that I had been through. It's been four months and I feel like a different person."That's a good place to start. What would like to talk about in regard to that topic?" she asks. Jackie is always professional. She came recommended by Anna, although I'm not sure how she kne
Darkness Chapter 25
JaredDropping Laynie off was a lot harder than I thought it would be. I planned on being between her legs by now, which is why I had Anna sleep somewhere else tonight. We had been planning this for a few weeks now. I never planned on leaving Laynie forever, but I knew we both needed time. Anna kept me up to date on everything that went on with her. Seeing Jackie seemed to be the best thing to happen to her. I can see her personality is stronger. She seems more sure of herself.I couldn't be prouder of her for finding her way.I get back in my car, after a lustful kiss goodnight in her doorway and making sure she locked the door. I pull my phone out and shoot her a text. I already miss her and I need to tell her so. I'm sure she can still see my headlights through the window because her texts read, you haven't even left yet. I pull out and head to a hotel calling Anna on the way.She answers right away with heavy breathing."W-what?!" she screams while panting. I don't even want to gu
