When She Went Home
Is set after suze and Jesse get married.A lot of things happen and not in the 18th century.
dont be dissapointed, i wrote this on a car ride to California!
I was twenty-five now with three sons, and another one on the way. Paul, Dominick, and Alano. Alano was my youngest at one year, Dominick was three and Paul was four. You'd think I'd have more kids figuring I had 10 years with Jesse. But in truth, I got married a little before I turned twenty because Jesse had been away at medical school for awhile. I had convinced the sisters that the six of us could do everything with the help of the hired. And besides, getting married at the age of 16 was wrong. Perhaps not in the current era, but I was a twenty-first century girl after all!
I felt strange for a while. It was like I married someone else. He wasn't different than Ghost Jesse, but it was strange. The Me that Alive Jesse fell for was the Me that didn't know Ghost Jesse. But he loved me anyways. Jesse and I were soul mates.
Jesse and I moved to a different wing of the house. All of the sisters had gotten married with doctors that they met at our wedding and had moved out. Jesse's mom died shortly after Dominick was born. It had taken her a month to move on. I had mediated her.
It wasn't hard really. She left pleasantly and there was no reason for my fist to come in contact with her face. Not that I would touch her in such a disrespecting manner. She was spotted while I was returning to a basket of the boys' clothes. She was sort of like Ray's Mom on Everybody Loves Raymond. Never really thought I was a good mother. So I was surprised at her request when she couldn't lift the boys shirts to fold them.
"I wanted to say something always to you. But I never got my chance."
"Go ahead Senora." I encouraged her on.
"You are a good woman and a kind wife to my Jesse. He is lucky to have found you. And I never doubted you for a minute."
Well actually she did but I didn't point that out just then
"It was just that you took my Jesse away. But it was a good thing. You are the best thing that has happened in his life and I wanted you to know that. Take care of my nietos." she said and in a glow of little white orbs, you know like in Charmed, she left. I actually cried a little bit, but then I finished and went to investigate in a yelling baby. Jesse was in the room trying to calm him. It actually worked. He was a good daddy.
" Did daddy wake you up?" I asked baby Dominick, combing his black hair with my hand.
" I didn't mean to Susannah, he was just so peaceful." he said giving me the baby to put back asleep. I cradled him singing the song "let me call you sweetheart" It was a song in the forties but it was still enough to calm me down. Jesse kissed me on the forehead as I put the baby down. His arms went around my waist and I he kissed my lips. I
I have him word of his mother.
He was happy for her to have moved on and announced that he had a successful delivery of triplets. Who had the better news?
It was in the middle of him kissing me when all of a sudden he says: "Lets have another one."
"Another what?" I asked not really knowing what he meant.
"Baby."
I backed up. It's not that I didn't want any more kids, its just that I just had Dominick and who could blame me for being tired?
"Jesse we just had one."
"Si Querida, but that was two months ago."
"Jesse baby, we have the rest of our lives to have children. Lets wait a year okay?" I said.
"You're right, we should wait." but he kept on kissing me slowly.
"Oh whatever" I threw my arms around his neck and you could guess what happened next…wink wink.
Luckily no kids happened and it was another year before Alano was born. And now I was pregnant with another. This time I hoped it was a little girl. Boys were fun, but I wanted a girl.
I was eight months into the pregnancy and though I never became the fashion guru that I aimed for, I received my BA when Jesse was away, and I taught for two years during his absence. When Jesse returned, we got married and I retired as a teacher. It was a pain sometimes. Jesse worked hard on the ranch and random people started to come to the house. Which was why he opened a little office in town so that it wouldn't disturb our home.
I never regretted staying with home, but it was hard to live without knowing someone who knows as much as you do. He was my true love so I was happy.
"Papa, what's that?" Paul asked when we were eating dinner. Senor de Silva had gone out of town and Paul, Dominick, Baby Alano, Jesse and I were surrounded around the dinner table for a nice family dinner.
I turned around and to my shock, it was a ghost.
And not just any ghost.
The ghost of Felix Diego.
And in the hand of Felix Diego, there was a torch lit aflame. He tossed it on the drapes and screamed "¡Hasta muerte, viviré en este tiempo!"
The boys, who knew Spanish covered their ears and went under the table. Jesse only saw the flames and automatically tried to put it out. Only more flames blocked the only door way leading us out, and there were no windows. Felix vanished and more flames followed him, which meant that he got the rest of the house already. We were trapped. I grabbed Alano and went with the boys under the table.
"Jesse, it's too hot come here!"
After hesitating, he went down. I had a plan and I wasn't sure it was gonna work.
"I want you all to put your hands on mine." I already held Alano and Jesse put his arms around my waist.
And I could only think of the only other salvation
Home Sweet Home.
And were there.
