After her father died Grace married her love....A.J. He was her whole
world. Two years after the wedding Grace became agitated because she
couldn't get away from the news cameras and strange phone calls. So she
decided that A.J and her would move away to a small, quaint town where no
one could really recognize them. After a quick fight A.J finally agreed to
move away with his new wife and settled for whatever job he could find
there.
Five months and three days later (not that anyone was counting ) They settled into a small cabin in Westburn California. This ranch community was a great change from the hectic hustle and bustle of Washington.
One night as A.J and Grace lay in bed...." A.J..... how's the job search going? I mean you've been looking for about a month now and....well..." He lifted his head and smiled gently she couldn't help but smile back, " I've been looking but nobody seems to be hiring.... plus you're making plenty of money at the hospital so maybe I could take a break...." Grace sat up " What do you mean a brake? I work 12 hour days only to come home to a filthy home and my husband watching football with his buddies..... why don't I take a break and you go out and find a job!" All the emotions Grace had been holding in just exploded onto her unsuspecting victim. His face went pale as he whimpered like a scolded puppy.
The next morning was a gorgeous June day with not a cloud in the sky and the sounds of children's feet going pitter patter on the pavement outside. Yet in the house there was almost no sounds at all only the soft sound of bacon in the oven and the wonderful aroma of cinnamon buns, eggs, sausage, and fresh baked breads that wafted to A.J as he slowly roused from sleep. Suddenly the bedroom door slowly creaked open and there standing in the door way with an array of homemade goodies and fresh squeezed orange juice was Grace wearing her black slip with her hair thrown carelessly into a loose, messy bun atop her head. She smiled innocently as she placed the tray upon the small dresser next to A.J and sat on the bedside next to him.
"Baby I am so sorry. I didn't mean to explode like that I was ju...." She was quickly hushed as A.J put his finger to her lips to silence her, " It's no big deal. Plus this sure makes up for it." He nodded his head in the direction of the breakfast layout. " Well I was kind of hoping I could make it up to you in a different way..."
She slid next to him and beckoned him to her. He needed no second bidding, as quickly as he could he slid across the bed to her gently caressing her and continually pulling her closer and closer. Soon they were in an embrace that no one could have torn apart. He began to pull on the straps of her slip when suddenly there was a knock at the door.
"Hey.... did you hear that?" Grace asked looking towards the door " No....no I didn't hear a thing" " A.J..... stopit ..... come-on please answer the door.... then get your butt back in here and finish what you started." She smiled sweetly at him and nudged him towards the door. The knocking came again. Grace watched A.J walk to the door and heard him open it.... then suddenly he gasped and started talking in a very hushed voice. " What are you doing here? I told you never come around here..... I have a wife.... what do you want?" Then a strange female voice came through the doorway " I wanted to make sure we're still on for tonight....I mean last time was so crazy." Suddenly Grace's heart stopped as his answer sounded " Of course, same time same place. Now get out of here!"
