I woke up to the sound of the radio go off, the song by crossfade " So Far Away" was playing I opened my eyes to see Kristine sit up in bed. As she yawned I grabbed her hand pulling her over to me and held her close. "Don't go," I said. "Jeff," she sighed pulling away and got out of bed. "You know I can't beside your leaving in a few hours anyway," she said as pulled out the clothes she was going to wear that day. I sat up against the wall. "You're right." She smiled and walked towards me giving me a kiss. "I love you." I love you too," she replied and went to the bathroom to take her shower.
I got up out of bed and headed to the living room. I sat on the couch and turned on the TV. Starting to watch cartoons. Scooby Doo was on, my favorite cartoon.
After a half-hour, I heard Kristine walk into the kitchen. I walked over and stood in the doorway watching her make a bagel and put peanut butter on it. She nearly jumped to the ceiling when she turned around to see me. "Jeff dammit don't that you scared the shit out of me." I chuckled a bit. "I'm sorry." I pulled her close and kissed her on the forehead. "I better get going before I'm late." "Yeah," I said looking at the clock, it was 4:30am. "So I'll see you in a week." "Yeah," I sighed and kissed her again. "I love you," she said grabbing her keys and purse. "I love you." "Tell Matt and Amy I said hi." "I will." I smiled and watch her walk out the door.
I walked into the hallway and stopped at the first room. I turned on the light, looking into the room. It was Kristine's sewing room. I looked at the wedding dress that Kristine just finished making. I closed my eyes imaging it on her. I couldn't wait 'til our wedding, which was in a few months. I turned off the light and went back to bed. I laid in bed waiting to hear Kristine's voice on the radio, for her show to start. Once it did, I smiled and went back to sleep.
I woke up again after hearing Kristine laughing at a joke a caller told her. I looked at the time, it was 9: 30. My flight was at 10: 45. "Oh shit," I yell. Matt was gonna kill me if I'm late again, I've been building a habit of that lately. I hurried out of bed and got my clothes out that I was going to wear, thank god my suitcase was already pack. I got in the shower taking a quick one. Kristine would be home in a half-hour and if I weren't gone by then she'd yell at me to get my ass in gear.
After I got out of the shower. Again I look at the clock, it was 9: 40. I quickly got dressed and went to get my suitcase. When I heard loud bang in living room. "What the fuck," I said headed to the living room. When I got to the living room. I saw two men in black ski masks with guns in the room. They saw me, "get down, don't move," one yelled pointing the gun at me. I instantly went to the floor. "Take whatever." "Shut up." Both men went to the back of the house into our room. I got up to get to the phone to call Kristine to warn her and call to call for help. One of the two me came out of the room and saw me.
