…
Sitting in James' lap and deepening their kiss Mindy caught the bloodied bag out the corner of her eye and had to pout her collagen-fused lips and ask.
"Jamie darling…" her lips curled remembering the movie Se7en and the horrible box incident that scarred her for a while, "What is in the bag?"
Kissing her throat and nuzzling her neck James pet her cheek and her hair before pulling open the bag so she could see inside…and much to her horror she wretched and had to hold a hand over her mouth because she did vomit in her mouth. She was pregnant, her system was funky, and she was incredibly squeamish. She forgot to mention that to her serial killer boyfriend and baby daddy.
"Baby Doll!" immediately he actually held his hand out FOR her and she vomited onto his hand much to her own horror…but he didn't even care, "Sssshhhh baby baby baby…"
"Oh GOD!" sniffling and whimpering in humiliation the pregnant teenager panicked and began to cry hysterically, "Oh fuck Jamie I'm SORRY I'm SORRY I…"
He kissed her, "I love you."
How many men would have allowed that to happen without batting an eye was beyond her. He didn't even care. He grabbed a dish rag and cleaned them both off before kissing her and giving her a long luxurious bubble bath. She still didn't talk much, completely mortified about what happened but he was so sweet about it. He didn't even care.
…
"So…" lying on the great room couch with James while playing with his long fingers Mindy sniffled and hugged his waist since she was on his lap. He had his feet up on an ottoman and she made herself comfortable with her face snuggled in his chest.
"So what?" smirking he kissed her hair and she sniffled before craning her neck to kiss him, "You did it…"
"Yeah" gulping he nodded and tilted her chin up to look him in the eye, "Baby I had to…" curling his lips he frowned and pet her face, "I couldn't handle another Joseph-"
"But your Daddy did not actually-"
"He TRIED to Baby Doll" nodding he pet her face and kissed her, "but I put an end to him before he could"
"I did not ask you to kill him, Jamie…" gulping Mindy's eyes were wide with horror and she pouted her lips, "Why would you do that?"
"Baby Doll…" sniffling he pet her face and frowned, "He RAPED you, Baby darling he RAPED you! I won't fucking stand for that you're MINE Baby and he HURT you! He fucking HURT you I'm so sorry I didn't want him to do it again all I saw was YOU and he hurt you and you're pregnant I was scared for you and the baby-"
"So you killed him?" shaking her head she frowned and ran a hand through her hair, "You did not have to KILL him Jamie Paul! You KILLED someone! BLOOD! KILLED! DEAD! I do not give a fuck what happens to me I do not matter"
His teeth barred and he held her chin, "You're my WIFE…you matter. To ME you matter you're MY wife now. Someone thinks they're taking you away from me for a fucking second they've got another thing coming."
Nodding along she bit her lip hard and softened, "What about Kane-"
"Fuck Crispy I don't fucking care-"
"Mark was still his brother…and he will know you did it-"
"Why?" his head tilted dangerously, "Because you'll tell him? Because you're going to tell him, right? You love that burnt-up freak so much you'll sell me out to-"
SLAP!
"FUCK YOU James! FUCK YOU!" snarling she stood off the couch and balled her fists, immediately frightening him.
"I'm sorry!"
"NO! FUCK you! Kane's my best fucking friend who would lie on a track for me! THAT constitutes FRIEND and I WORRY about him!" with bleary eyes she ran a hand through her hair, "He has NO ONE James! NO ONE! He HAD a brother who fucking sucked and made his life hell but it was still his BROTHER! Fuck you killed him for YOU! He was always mean to YOU and you needed a god damn reason so you pinned him on ME-"
"NO. MIRANDA. NO" clearly annoyed he wasn't taking that answer at all, "NO! I would have killed him for cheating on me all those fucking times, okay? No. I LOVE YOU! I FUCKING LOVE YOU SO MUCH IT HURTS! I need you to BREATHE, Baby Doll! I need you to fucking BREATHE! You're my fucking heart! YOU ARE…MY" he slammed both arms into his chest, "FUCKING…HEART! MY HEART! I LOVE YOU!"
"I love you TOO, Jamie I do I do" whimpering she slammed a foot to the floor and started sobbing, "I love you more than anybody I do but you are in TROUBLE!"
"Why?" immediately sitting up he pet her face and kissed her softly, "Why Baby? Why am I in trouble sweet pea? Tell me why, sweetheart please tell me why I'm in trouble let me make it better I want more than anything to make it better for you"
"Because you will get CAUGHT!" sobbing she slammed her foot down and hugged her pregnant belly, immediately letting James pull her back into his lap and kiss her softly while cooing.
"Sssshhhh Baby. Baby no…" kissing her again he shook his head, "Baby Baby no…" smiling gently he kissed along her neck and smiled, "I'm a serial killer, Baby…you remember that…I'm a serial killer I do this all the time-"
She sniffled, "Why?"
"Why?"
"Why?" she was too cute he couldn't help himself and he kissed her.
"Because it was the only thing in my life that ever made me feel like I was in control…"
"You control ME…?" she nodded hopefully and he gave her a look before petting her cheek with his thumb.
He sighed and ran a hand over his face, knowing at this point what she was going to try and get out of him, "Do you want me to stop killing, Baby Doll?" kissing behind her ear he tucked some hair behind it and pouted his lips, "Is this what you want, Baby Doll? Is that all you want? I'll stop right now if that makes you happy, Baby I will. I'll stop I promise Baby I'll stop."
"Oh no Jamie baby no no no I…" licking her lips quickly and curling them in Mindy shook her head and kissed him on the lips smoothly, "I love you baby I love you I DO but I worry so much I love you I do…"
"Baby Doll…" smiling he kissed her deeply and played with the long blonde hair before nuzzling her neck and whispering into her ear, "You've already sated me…"
She smiled.
"If I ever had a reason to stop its come already…"
"But you-"
"I love YOU" he tapped her nose and she smiled, "I need YOU…" her tongue poked between her teeth and he drew it into his mouth before she could poke it back in, "Murder isn't even a factor I love you so much."
"Really?" her eyes lit up and he nodded.
"Really really…" running his fingers through his hair he nodded and kissed her forehead, "Dunkin' Donuts or Krispy Kreme?"
"Krispy Kreme" smiling she kissed his neck and nodded, "Surprise me I am a pregnant cranky garbage disposal"
Leaning in he kissed her slowly and smirked, "My favorite kind."
…
Yawning and lying on her back on her and James' bed Mindy frowned and stretched her spine before answering the question irritably.
"No…" groaning and rolling over as she waited for James to come home with the Krispy Kremes Mindy wrinkled her nose and sighed, "I don't know…I don't know, I…" slapping her side she shrugged, "Do you care?"
"It's my brother…" that dull rasped voice of Kane said, "yeah I care."
She cringed, "Do you care a lot?"
"No…" he exhaled and paused for a long minute, "He didn't give a good damn when he thought I was dead for twenty years so why would I feel the same?"
"Because JAMIE slaughtered him…?" she cringed but he groaned and exhaled louder.
"I'm more worried about what he's going to do to YOU…"
She paused uncomfortably, "What do you mean?"
"I mean you're marrying a loaded gun, Minda! I'm worried fucking sick about you day in and day out with that mass-murdering psychopath-"
"Oh no no no babe I'm MARRYING him and he STOPPED for me! He said he STOPPED he will-"
"Are you braindead? He just killed my BROTHER!"
"I know…" she frowned, "and I am so sorry but I did not know…I was so worried about what would happen when YOU found out and I just HAD to tell you, I did…I love you, Kane you're my best friend"
Swallowing hard on the other end Kane felt a sledgehammer to his heart at her words but nodded along anyway, "You REALLY need to reconsider this marriage before going through with it, Bug"
"But I LOVE my Jamie I do Kane I love him so much"
"You've been with Cooper, haven't you?"
She hesitated before nodding, "Yeah…"
"He's your god damn age you're better off with the kid than him"
"But I LOVE James…I NEED James I love him so much I do"
"You rushed into this. You really fucking rushed into this he tells you he stopped but he murdered my brother and no, I'm not coming after him but if he harms one hair on your head I SWEAR I will wring his neck with my bare hands"
"He is CRAZY with this shit, Kane-"
"Yeah well, he hasn't met me when you're involved either. I've never physically brawled with him nor do I plan on it unless I have no choice. He hurts you I'll hurt him"
"Why?" with a slightly croaky tone she ran a hand through her hair, "Why me? Don't you have a girlfriend?"
"No. Nor do I plan on it."
"Are you gay?"
"No."
"Why?"
"I…" 'love you' was going to come out but he sighed and tried to change subject before he really embarrassed himself, "I need you to promise me you'll be careful, Minda. PLEASE you're SUCH a smart girl think for yourself don't let him think for you. He's a needy manipulative clingy psychotic monster he'll turn on you like a pitbull he did it to Mark and he was with him for thirty years"
Nodding along she felt tears surface and whimpered, "I want to marry him…"
"You THINK you want to marry him…"
"I want to get married in the west will you come out here-"
"I'll be the bride's bodyguard if you want, Minda-bug just please think about it"
"Think about what?"
"This…everything…Bug come on think about it…"
She really didn't want to, "I'm pregnant…"
"I'm on your side, Minda I'm not trying to come after you."
…
Entering their bedroom James smiled to see her sitting there on his laptop on a site for a five-star resort in Colorado Springs called The Broadmoor.
"I think I wanna have the wedding here…" she craned her neck and smiled weakly at him, "It is in Colorado Springs but it is amazing and stuff and there's these amazing ballrooms and nine restaurants we could have our honeymoon here too and go horseback riding in the mountains and go on Pike's Peak and play in the snow and there is a zoo where they let you pet the giraffes and feed them…"
Smiling he kissed her and ran his fingers through her hair, "That sounds just lovely Baby Doll really it does…I'll be more than happy to have Julie make the calls you know money is not an-"
"Do you think we should have waited a little longer?" that question scared the royal fuck out of him, "To get married? Do you think we should have waited?"
He fidgeted, "W-why would you think that? Is something wrong?"
"No…I just…" rubbing the back of her neck she shrugged and ran her fingers through her hair, "I don't know people are being really fucking critical and serious and keep saying shit and just like…" slapping the mattress in frustration she shrugged, "I don't know. I want to marry you right fucking now Jamie I do"
"Then do it" James nodded hopefully, "Marry me now. I fucking love you Baby Doll just marry me now!"
"I can't" she gave him a look, "and you know it. I am seventeen."
"So what?" he shrugged, "I can just have Julie-"
"Please James…" shaking her head she hugged him close and made him sit her in his lap, "this is just freaking me out…all of this."
"I've never been married-"
"Is that why we are-"
"I met the love of my life and I'll be damned before I let you go" he kissed her forehead, "Why don't you just pick a pretty dress and leave all the heavy planning to me?"
Curling her lips in she nodded along, "I'll bring Bub with me."
"Cooper?" he snorted, "He's got the fashion sense of a-"
"I want him."
