Hey everyone, I'm so sorry this took forever to upload. I've had some writer's block and I've been super busy. But here is chapter 10. (Sorry I've gotten the chapters confused) I know I've been doing a lot of Jack and Sally's POV's. But I'm going to try to do more general POV's. I will still do Jack and Sally's at times. But thanks again to everyone who has read. I hope you enjoy, Blessings Butterfly582
Jack sat there stood there stroking Sally's face. "Pumpkin, aren't you happy the doctor's saved you?" Jack asked.
Sally shook her head no. "Honey, did you really want to die?" Jack asked. Sally nodded her head yes, with tears in her eyes. Jack wiped the tears away. "Shh… don't cry, it's all going to be okay. I know you can't talk right now. So just relax, I'm not going anywhere…I mean it this time."
The next two days, Sally slowly started to recover. Doctor, Hollow finally took the tube out of her mouth. Jack didn't want to push the questions right away. But Doctor, Hollow began to ask questions. Almost as soon, as the tube was out.
"Sally, my team wants to help you. But we need to know why you tried to take your life." Doctor Hollow said.
But Sally just shook her head no. Jack stroked his wife's hand. "Honey, please the doctor wants to help you. But he can't, unless you tell us what's going on."
But still Sally just shook her head no. Jack sighed, then he suggested that maybe they should give Sally a little more time. And then maybe she would open up about what's going on. Doctor, Hollow agreed and left the room.
When Doctor, Hollow left the room, Sally let tears stream down her face. Jack wiped the tears away. And kissed Sally on the head.
"Jack, I want to go home." Sally said. "Honey, the doctor's aren't going to let you leave. Until they help you through your problems." Jack replied.
"I don't have a problem! I want to go home!" Sally snapped. "Sally, you tried to commit suicide. You can't cover this up with a lie anymore. If we let you go home right now. Then you'll just try to take your own life again." Jack replied.
"What do you care?! You're never home anyway! All you care about is Halloween, and helping the stupid Mayor! So, why would you care if I took my own life?! No one in this stupid town cares about me, not even you!" Sally snapped.
Jack sat quietly for a moment. And let Sally's angry outburst sink in. He finally sighed, before he spoke again. "So, that's what this is about. Sally, how could you think I don't care about you? You know I love you more than life itself."
"No, you don't, no one does, no one wanted me to become Pumpkin Queen. I hear monsters talk. They all say you could have married someone so much better. And I know you agree with them. Because you're always at the Mayor's office. I'm just a burden to you Jack. Why didn't you just let me die?!" Sally snapped, as angry tears fell from her eyes.
Jack embraced his heart broken wife. And just let her cry all her pain, anger, and frustrations out in his chest. Sally wasn't sure how long she cried. But she knew it was probably a while. Finally Jack pulled Sally up and wiped tears off her cheeks.
"Listen to me closely Sally. I don't care what the monsters of Halloween town say. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me. You are my wife, my Pumpkin Queen, my lover, my best friend, my whole life. And I know it's been hard lately. I have felt so guilty for leaving you. I know I need to have more of a back bone. And say no to the Mayor. I love you so much. And you make every day worth living. I miss my Sally so much. I miss your loving words, your sweet kisses, I miss everything about you. I want my Sally doll back. Please, if you die, I'm going in the coffin with you. Because I can't go through this life without you. Do you understand that? I love you so much, you are the best thing that has ever happened to me. I mean it when I say it. I would never lie to you about that." Jack replied.
Sally rested her head on Jack's shoulder. "I'm sorry, I was just so miserable. And I thought you would be better off without me. I never knew you felt that way. Please don't hate me. I just didn't know what else to do." Sally cried. As tears fell again.
"Shh…please don't be sorry. I understand, but I can promise you this. Things are going to change from here on out. You are my wife. And I shouldn't be neglecting you. You deserve so much more. Then what I have been giving you lately. I'm the one who needs to be sorry. But I mean it when I say, things are going to change, big time" Jack replied.
I'm sorry, I kind of ended this chapter on a weak note. But I'm still trying to overcome my writers block. But I hope you all enjoyed this. Chapter 11 will be up soon. Thanks to all who have R&R, you all rock, Blessings, Butterfly582
