Sally returned home with the kids running into the house. She was happy to know that Lightning was home. His car was outside anyway. She walked in and shut the door. Reminding the kids not run as they did anyway. She then called out. "Lightning? Light, you down here?!" She glanced in the kitchen. Nope. Living room. Yep. Lightning was laying on the couch with a bag of peas over his eyes. "Lightning?.. You okay? How'd it go?" Lightning groaned as he removed the peas and sat up. "It um.. Went like any other talk with Cleo.. It's just a game to her.." He frowned. Sally sat down next to him and wow. He was covered in sweat and bags under his eyes. He looked so exhausted. "Well.. A shower might help.. You sure your okay? You are drenched." she pointed out. Lightning nodded explaining "I worked out to take my mind off. I'm fine.. Really." He put on a smile and gazed into Sally's eyes.
Sally sighed and kissed his lips gently. "I am so sorry I lied Stickers.. I shouldn't have.. I knew that when I did it just"-"You wanted to protect me.. I get it.. And I love you and thank you for that, but.. Talk to me.. I can handle more than you think." He reminded. Sally smiled a little and had to ask. "So?.. Are we okay?" Lightning snickered smiling, "We're okay." he assured. Sally immediately wrapped her arms around him and his horrible sweat. "I love you Stickers.. I am so sorry for yesterday.. It won't happen again.." "Hope not.. You should talk to Jackson though." Lightning added. Sally frowned and pulled away. "Oh gosh.. Did he quit? I was kind of worried he was gonna quit after hearing all that.." Sally was so embarrassed.
Lightning shrugged. Hopefully Jackson wouldn't quit. "Sally.." He placed his hand over hers. "I love you so much." Sally leaned on his shoulder. Though he smelled horrible, she took in every moment with him possible. Lightning let out a sigh. He was sore and tired. And lying. He should be honest. "I'm not okay." he admitted. Sally immediately looked at him and held his hand a little tighter. "What's going on?.." Sally asked softly. Lightning stared at their hands together before venting "Sometimes I can't sleep.. Sometimes all I do at night is sit up and think.." He paused and looked at Sally. "Bad things. Just.. Really bad things about Cleo and..." He shook his head and remembered what Cleo said. Sally remained silent and let Lightning take his time on this.
"Sally.. Have I.. You're.." He stared at her. "What is rape?" he asked. Sally raised a brow. She knew he knew what is was and he was. "I.. Don't understand that question?.. You know what it is. Don't you dare start to let Cleo twist your mind. She.. What she did?.. She hurt you Lightning." She was just slapping a band aid on the word rape. Lightning rolled his eyes explaining "Um, yeah.. I meant.. Have I?.. Hurt you?" Sally stared a moment. It was such a.. weird, surprisingly odd question and it was very unexpected. "What? No!? Why would you even have to ask that?" She asked. Lightning shook his head and thought a moment. "You have told me to stop at times while we.. Mess around and sometimes during sex itself. Isn't that assault? Rape?" Sally sighed. Lightning was asking one of those.. Border line queetions. That was tough.
"If you're seriously asking me if you have.. Raped me? No, you haven't. Okay? This is honestly one of the most outrageous things you have ever asked me. What the heck did Cleo put in your head?" Sally asked. Lightning frowned. "What about that time on the couch?.." He asked softly. Sally wasn't sure which time he meant. Lightning saw her confusion and stared. Maybe he was over thinking this. Sally sighed and went with this stupidity. "Look, rape is.. A form of.. Sex.. Carried out by assualt.. Whether that's by physical force, coercion, abuse of authority or with the victim not being able to give consent due to.. Being unconcious or drugged.." Lightning nodded and then said the most shocking thing. "So I've raped you." Sally's eyes widened and she shook her head. "Nope. I don't remember that. Think I would have.. I don't think you've ever laid a hand on me Light. Aside from a few.. Rougher.. Encounters.. But that was totally willingly!" She said and assured. Unless he did something to her while she was unconscious. Lightning sighed and reminded her more of out of guilt, "I have though. I held you down. I forced myself inside you while you struggled against me.." Sally shook her head but, yes she remembered exactly when he was talking about...
Lightning glared harsh and took both her wrist in one hand and restrained them above her head with tight and in slight painful pressure.
"What are you doing?!" She screamed at her husband, her voice laced with anger, as she began to try to struggle free.
"Guess." he snapped. The way she was pinned.. Her area was naturally pressed against his member. Lightning knew she could feel his hardness and heat, and all that wiggling she was doing was only egging him on more. "I'm gonna give you exactly what you deserve." he snarled.
"You can't possibly be serious!? I'm done! You got your fuck!" she yelled!
"But I'm not.." Lightning said softly "No need to make this worse for yourself by fighting me.." With his other hand, he grabbed hold of his still hard meat.. Stroking it against her hole, letting precum moisten drip. Then he leaned in and guided his member towards her hole, which was dripping cum.
"NO!" She struggled harder, but Lightning won. Finding her areas entrance, He pushed his hips forward, letting himself enjoy that sensation of the first stroke slipping over the tip and down his shaft. He pulled out slightly, then pushed in deep and held it there, "Fuck.. I'm going to enjoy my wife..", he groaned..
"Get the fuck off of me!" Sally yelled!
"Oh no, bitch, you're going to learn a little lesson." With that, he wasted no time, and started pumping in and out of her. He wasn't gentle, but the feeling it gave him, the image of Sally enjoying Francesco made him want to fuck her harder and faster with each passing moment. Soon he was pounding away at her body with every bit of strength he had left!.. He still had her wrists pinned in one of his hands, the other was free. Fucking her hard and fast wasn't enough for him.. He drew back his arm, and landed a slap hard on her hip and thigh area.
She yelped, but he didn't care. "You like that?" he growled. He slapped her again, getting her to yelp once more...
Sally and Lightning stared at each other with no words. Sally wasn't sure what to tell him. Legally, that was or could be defined as rape. But that was.. It was difficult to explain. Because though it began as.. Anger.. Sally enjoyed it and it went from her fighting and struggling to pleasure in the end. It was a fragile and grey area really. Tough to explain. "Mama.." A little voice mumbled and interrupted them. Lightning and Sally immediately stood up and looked back at Colton. "I'm hungry.." He whined. Sally and Lightning stared at each other a moment. Sally took a deep breath and replied to her oldest son, "Okay.. We need to be getting dinner ready anyway.. Um.. Can we?.. Talk more about this.. Um, more.. Later Light?" Sally asked. Lightning nodded and watched Sally walk away with Colton...
Dinner was awkward. Lightning helping Colton eat and Sally with the twins. Neither said a word to each other really. Not for most of dinner. Just a slight glance here and there. Sally was desperate to think of what exactly to even say to Lightning next. She just.. Yeah he forced her.. But.. Hmm. Cleo had obviously gotten into his head about the rape.. This is exactly what she wanted to protect Lightning from. This is what she was afraid of happening. Now Cleo had Lightning thinking that he.. He was.. Nope. It was ridiculous and Sally needed to make it clear that that wasn't rape. Because it wasn't.. Really. Not really. At least she never thought of it that way. Okay that's a lie. She did somewhat at that time. But this was Lightning. He was gentle and kind and sweet and.. Only.. He wasn't. Hmm.
Sally got the kids to bed while Lightning cleaned up some dishes. He was thinking. Thinking about what he did. He hurt Sally many times. That time was out of pure anger and rage. It was awful of him. Sally came up behind him and whispered softly "Kids are asleep." Lightning sighed and glanced at her for a split second before continuing to wash dishes. Sally stood there and watched him scrub the plate. Really scrubbing it. "Think it's.. Good there Mr. Clean." She joked. And yet he still continued to scrub it. "Light.." Nothing. If anything, he was scrubbing it harder. "Lightning, it's okay!" She shouted and grabbed his hands. The two stared at each other. Sally really saw the pain and confusion in his eyes. She didn't say a word, just hugged him tightly. Lightning broke down in this and dropped the plate and sponge and just held onto Sally. "I'm so sorry I hurt you so much.." He whimpered. Sally sighed. How was she going to fix this.. Fix him.. One thing for sure.. Cleo should pay!
"Lightning this is why I didn't want you to see her.. What did she say to you and put in your head?" Sally asked as she caressed his face. Lightning hated being and seeming weak. Especially around Sally! Suddenly, it was like he flipped a switch. "Nothing.. Told me to look in the mayor's office for a hint about the remote. I.. You know, I'll be okay. I'm just.." "Lightning.. It's okay to not be okay all the time. I understand you are stressed and exhausted right now. Go on to bed, I can finish this up. Please." Lightning stared into Sally's loving eyes. He nodded and took her hand off his cheek, sending her a smile and walking off up stairs to bed. Sally shook her head. Cleo was such a mind manipulator. Sadly, talking and being rude like she was, wasn't a crime to add to her sentence. Sally wanted to make Lightning feel better but wasn't sure how sense sex probably wouldn't be the best thing nor what he needed right now...
Sally shut off lights and sipped some water before heading up. Lightning wasn't in bed. Hmm. Sally knocked on the bathroom. "Lightning?.." The shower was running. She pushed the door open and walked over to the shower. "Light.." She called from outside it. He didn't answer. Sally sighed and admitted "I don't know what to do for you.. You can't start talking to me and then.. Close up. I am here for you okay?.. You can talk to me and tell me whatever. No judgment. That time you talked about in our lives?.. It's a grey area there Light.. I don't know what Cleo told you or put in your head, but you need to remember.. That.. that's what she does. She wants this right now. My guess is she's trying to drive a wedge between us. You know how much she loved doing that before." Lightning didn't answer but Sally was right about that.
The shower stopped. Lightning sighed and Sally grabbed the towl and handed it to him. He only wrapped it around his hips and stepped out. "You're right.. You were right, I shouldn't have gone alone." God he looked so awful. Just completely exhausted. Sally stepped up and kissed his lips so gently. Lightning pushed against her, pushing her against the sink as he kissed her back. Sally moaned a bit before they parted lips. Lightning gazed down at Sally's eyes and brushed some of her hair behind her ear. Just taking her in. He took her by her waist and lifted her up onto the countertop. His hands brushed down her thighs to her knees and parted them where he stood closely between them. "We have a lot of grey areas in our life together?.. don't we?" He asked quietly. Sally sighed. She didn't answer, but they did honestly.
Lightning lifted her chin and kissed her once more. Such a gentle and soft kiss. Was not one of lust or sexualized. Definitely just love. Sally pulled away to whisper "I love you Stickers." Lightning smiled slightly hearing those words. "Always and forver." He added. "I will never stop Miss Sally. Never." He assured. Sally nodded in return before hopping down. "Why don't you come to bed and I can rub yoir shoulders some. Bet you could use some relaxation." She was sweet to offer, but Lightning just wanted to cuddle up and sleep next to her. "Im happy just snuggling up to you for the night. Pretty.. Exhausted really.." He admitted. Sally kissed him quick once more saying "Great. But you'll have to walk outa here naked." "Naked? I have a towel arou"- Sally grabbed the towel ans ran iut the bathroom. Lightning stared a second. It was the weirdest flirting move she probably made in.. Ever? "Uh.. You realize I can just grab another towel?" He asked.
Sally peeked in the door. "Can't you just play along? I mean I understand if you're not feeling up to anything, but couldn't I have some eye candy at least?" She asked. Lightning took the nearest wash rag and tossed it at her, making her back off. He grabbed another towel anyway, but it was funny and cute of her really...
