It was raining.
I will always remember the rain that day.
It fell so beautiful. John always used to say that the rain was beautiful. How it fell. He would always call me rain. His little name for his wife.
But one day my world shattered...
It was not just a regular day for the people who lived in the mansion. The little girls played and the nanny watched them. Niels was off god knows where and Rose was forever cleaning.
Me and John where making sure everything was ready for the big night.
When everything was perfect he looked at me and smiled. Those eyes. I always loved those eyes. Those onyx eyes. He walked over to me and hugged me. I hugged him back.
So warm. His hugs where always so warm and comforting. He gives the hugs that you would never want to break away.
"I love you." He whispered into my ear. I hugged him even tighter. "I love you more." He did a light laugh. And would always come back with the same sentence. "You can not love more than infinity."
Today we where getting ready to await the arrival of out party guests. For in our big ballroom, we will dance the night away. "We have to get ready dear." I whispered, still hugging him. "In a minute."
Then we would hug in silence. Both sides not wanting to let go.
I leaned back and stared at him, he doing the same. I placed my hands in his face and pushed some hair away. His dark brown spike-ish hair.
He would always gaze in to my eyes before we kissed. He leaned in and kissed me.
When we where finished he places his forehead on mine and gazed at me some more. "I love you." He said before pecking my nose and running off. "I love you too." I whispered
After that I headed to my and Johns room to get dressed. I put on a long puffy baby blue dress that my mother gave me before she passed.
I took my hair out of its bun and let it curl down to my shoulders. John always loved my hair down. After powdering my nose I left the room to go search for my husband.
"John?" I called. Not a minuet latter he came down the hall and smiled at me. His smile was beautiful. How it could brighten anybody's day. "Yes Layla dear?" He spoke to me in his British ascent.
He was already in his uniform.
I walked to him and put my hands on his chest along with my head. Listening to his heartbeat. "After tonight you have to go back, do you not?" I looked up at him.
He had a weak smile on. "You know I have to," John placed his hand on my head and gazed at me.
I didn't want him to leave again. I don't want to have to wait another twelve months to see him. What if he died out there? I would not know what to do with myself.
"Please do not cry Layla." He wiped away a tear from my eye with his thumb. I did not even notice myself crying. "Forgive me," I pulled away an turned around. Only for him to hug me from behind. I smiled. "Did I ever tell you that you are the far most beautiful woman I had ever met?" He then kissed me on the cheek. "More than there are stars in the sky."
He could always put a smile on my face. No matter what.
When the time came the ballroom was filled with guests. The music was playing and people where dancing. The only person that was missing was John.
"John?" I called for him. I usually just had to call once and he would come to me. But now he was not.
"John?" I called again escaping the ball room and going down the hallway. All the doors where closed except for one. It was all the way across the mansion. And next to that door was a broken vase and some blood.
"John?" I called again hoping he was not going to answer. "Yes Rain," he spoke in a weak shaken voice.
I ran into the room. There he was. He lay in the floor with a puddle of blood around him. "JOHN!" I screamed. Tears fell down my face.
Blood escaped the sides of his mouth. "Rain, you have to leave this place now, and never look back. Someone is after you." He placed a hand on my cheek and smiled. "Please?" He continued.
I shook my head. "What about you?"
"Leave me." I bit my lip and hugged him. "No! I shall never leave you." Then I felt it. I leaned back in disbelief. John was crying. He never cries. No matter what happened to him he never shed a single tear.
I wiped away his tears. "I shall forever stay here until the bitter end." He cupped my cheek again. "I love you so damn much." I smiled as the tears streamed down my face. And watched the tears fall down his tan one.
"I love you more." He slowly shook his head as his eyes started to fall. "You can...not...love more...than infinity." He smiled as his eyes shut. "John?" I called. "John?!" No answer.
I placed my head on his chest. No steady heartbeat. No heartbeat. I started to tremble. "John! No!" I looked at his sleeping face. "You can't leave me! Please!"
I clenched his uniform shirt. "Please." I whispered.
But I knew he wound not answer. I knew he would never answer me. Because he can not. He is unable to speak. Unable to say the words 'I love you.' No longer able.
I stood up and walked down the large hallway. My mind was somewhere else. I was no longer in control of my body. It was taken over by sadness.
I walked outside. It was raining. He always loved the rain. It was beautiful.
It fell on me hard. At that moment the rain looked ugly to me. At that moment it reminded me that I will no longer watch it fall with the one I loved.
I walked.
There was only on way to end my sadness.
I stood on the edge.
Down below was sharp rocks and the ocean.
The ran poured down on me. But then I decided not to do it. John wouldn't want me to do it. I took a step back and bumped into something.
"Let me help you." A familiar voice spoke.
Then I was pushed. My scream was drowned out by the sound of the rain.
I was murdered. Along with my husband. John and Layla Lloyd was murdered.
John died at 12:57 pm
I died at 1:24 pm
Today in posting two chapters. So stay tuned my children. And In case you do not know. John looks exactly like Chris. Besides the eyes if course.
