54: Make that mistake
"It is not "forgive and forget" as if nothing wrong had ever happened, but "forgive and go forward," building on the mistakes of the past and the energy generated by reconciliation to create a new future."
~Alan PatonTwo weeks later.
Today is the last day of trial and I am present, sitting directly behind Maggie's seat watching her deliver her closing argument.
Lare called me while I was about to enter the court in the morning and informed me that Rogue was getting discharged later today, after two weeks of being at the hospital and I told him I had a trial to complete and assured him I'll come to see Rogue at home as soon as we were done.
I try to keep my focus on Maggie and put every other thing happen around me aside in the meantime. Alvin's lawyer had made an argument earlier citing how life imprisonment was unfair considering Alvin h

“To feel aroused is to feel alive. Having great sex is like taking in huge lungfuls of fresh air, essential to your body, essential to your health, and essential to your life.~Fiona ThrustWe drive into Rogue's mansion and it is the same way I last remembered it to be except for the much flowering plants around the compound. I haven't been here in almost seven months and although here now I still feel an emptiness. I climb up the balcony and I remember Rogue and I having sex outside here after he told me about his fantasy for sex in the rain.It was the nation's Independence Day and it was a national holiday and we decided to spend it together at his place, eating drinking and being happy. About a few hours past twelve when we heard the rumbling of the clouds outside and we both went to check it out and saw a thick d
His Dark Desires 56: The man I was with you
PLEASE NOTE: Although they are not in 2009, Rogue will keep referring to the things that happened that year as if they happened last week because of his memory loss. I don't want anyone getting confused."Never think that what you have to offer is insignificant. There will always be someone out there who needs what you have to give."~UnknownMy eyes are still close when and I notice someone towering in front of me, my eyes open immediately and I see Rogue wide awake on his wheelchair in front of me. I begin to pull myself up, wondering how long I've been asleep and how long he's been looking at me like that.Rogue on the other hand is in brand new clothes, a white polo and black shorts he has a black flip flop on his feet resting on the foothold of the wheelchair. His hair is having

"I choose you. And I'll choose you over and over and over. Without pause, without a doubt, in a heartbeat. I'll keep choosing you." ~UnknownHe opens his mouth, but nothing comes out at first, but at the second time he begins to speak, "Thank you for being honest Alex I know how difficult that must have been."I wipe my face of the tears on it when I hear his say, "But I found out I attempted suicide weeks ago."I'm surprised and the expression on my face does nothing to hide that, "How did you know?""It was on the news," he answers and I almost slap myself in the face.Of course, he's going to watch the news and see himself, "I didn't know why I would do that though, but I get it now, I didn't want to live without you in my life.""I'm sorry," I apologise in remorse again and if I'd have to keep apologizing to make things right, I

"I wanted, desperately, not to disappoint her."~Vanessa DiffenbaughI turn to see Rogue enjoying his small meal with delight and I walk back to him, "We need to go home now, it's almost time for your meds and Lare's will be on my ass if I don't return you."He chuckles lightly, "Lare is a pain on everyone ass, but he's a great friend," he admits himself leaving me surprised that he would."Yes, he is," I walk towards his wheelchair and behind to roll it out. "He just being a good friend though."He nods, "Wait, I've got it," he exclaims, wanting to control the wheelchair all by himself."Not today, captain, not today."Just like I'd hoped, there is little to no traffic on the road and we make our way back to the house."Move in with me, Alex," Rogue speaks up as he drags himself into his wheelchair from the car."I don't believe that's what you want," I point out to him

"I could not get my fill of looking. There should be a song for women to sing at this moment or a prayer to recite. But perhaps there is none because there are no words strong enough to name that moment."~Anita Diamant"Someone might walk in and see us" Havana silently squeals as Zander licks the spot on her neck he just stopped love biting."I don't care," He murmurs into the crook of her neck, "you're my wife and we are not doing something wrong here."She moans out, biting her lower lips lightly in response to what he's doing. "I may be your wife, but there is a thing called public indecency and that's what you're doing."He pulls back to stare into her brown eyes, wondering if she's pulling his legs or being serious, but when he sees her, he realises that she's very serious he begins to speak, "Publi

The ones that would do anything to see you smile and who love you no matter what."~AnonymousAlex's POVWhen a child comes into your life, everything changes and you have a responsibility to adapt to those changes and staring down at Rayge in my arms now makes the whole change I'm about to embark on already worth it.I was cleaned up by the nurses and then I was moved from the labour ward into the resting ward to wait till the morning while the baby was taken and dressed up and kept into the hospital incubator to help steady his body system, and according to Rogue, the doctor explained to him that it was a normal procedure and aid their newborn rest without any discomfort.When I finally woke,

We were finally going home and I can't be happier, knowing I had no loss, I'm alive and this baby in my arms is fine as well and as this new chapter opens I know it's going to be a good one."Welcome home my darling," Rogue says as Lauren opens the door for me to step into the house with Rayge in my arms.I smile a little feeling very happy.
