Sally dumped the rest of her coffee into the sink. The couple had a quiet breakfast in their room this morning. Sally rinsed the glass. Watching the water run down. Unknown to Lightning, after they went to bed last night, Sally stayed up doing research into what and how Cleo could be playing. Trying to find out if pleading Stockholm syndrome was really Lightning's best shot or not. Suddnely Sally felt hands around her middle-"Hey!" She jumped. Lightning immediately stepped back and chuckled. "Were you about to beat me with a mug?" Sally realized she had the mug, in hand, ready and aiming to wack the nearest thing!

Lightning snickered in his chuckle and took the mug from her hands. "You're cute. But pretty sure a mug wouldn't save you from an actual attack." Sally playfully glared. Lightning loved her and knew something was up. He kissed her lips amd pushed her against the sink. "What's bothering you?" He asked. "You aren't thinking about the case are you?" She did this. She use to do it a lot when she was the town's attorney. Sally sighed, frowned, and admitted "I am.. I'm sorry. I just.. I don't think the idea of stockholm syndrome is the way to go.. I think Dianna could do better. I could do better!" She snapped. Lightning sighed and hugged his wife.

"I love you Sally.. But.. Please.. Enough." He begged. "We have all of today and tonight and tomorrow morning.. Then we have to go.. I don't want to spend our last full day talking about Cleo.. Please." Sally nodded. She realized it was actually kind of cruel of her to be mentioning Cleo at all after what all she did to Lightning. Sally stood up on her toes a little and kissed Lightning softly. It made him smile as they gazed into each other's eyes. "You look good when you smile Stickers." She complimented. Lightning didn't reply. Instead he kissed her lips again, and again. "Okay, okay!" Sally laughed and gently pushed him away. "What do you wanna do today than?" She asked.

Lightning shrugged. So much they hadn't even tried and not enough time to do it all. "We should start making this a yearly thing." he suggested. Sally raised a brow. "What? Cancun?" Lightning bobbed his head a little. Agreeing somewhat, but further explained "Well.. Just this. Us. Once a year, take the time to re connect and be us. No work or kids or anything." Sally smiled at the thought. They rarely did this even before kids and the divorce! "Won't be long and we'll be taking family vacations." Sally reminded. Lightning's eyes widened slightly. That would be fun, but he still thought about them. Just them. "I think our marriage could use this. Not exactly Cancun every year, but.. Just a small get away, just the two of us." He exclaimed.

Sally nodded. It did sound like a nice idea. She replied "Maybe." That was enough for now anyway. Lightning leaned close and kissed her soft pink lips again. It made Sally smile. "Let's go to the beach for a little while." She suggested. Lightning nodded. "Sure. I'll go get ready." Sally smiled and when Lightning turned to go, she slapped him across the rear. Lightning froze a second then slowly looked back at her asking "Are you trying to start something?" Sally stared and shook her head while smiling playfully. "Alright than." He growled before walking away. He was cute when he got a little miffed sounding. One thing for sure, this marriage was going great so far!...

"Ugh.. Meg, have you seen my keys? I have to get going!" Cal growled. Megan rushed into the room and handed him the keys to her car. "Just take it today. Not gonna hurt you to drive a girl's car." She teased. Cal snickered and grabbed his jacket. "So Tex is coming by?" Asked Megan. Cal nodded. "He just wants to check on the place. He heard about the threats to sue and stuff." Ece walked in and wiped her eyes. Megan immediately knelt down to the kid's level and asked "What's wrong sweetheart?" "I.. I miss my Mommy.." She whimpered.

Megan sighed and assured "I'll bet your Mommy misses you to. Maybe we can call her tonight?" Cal cleared his throat, grabbing Megan's attention. "You do that, and it'll make things worse." Megan glared at Cal. the glare she gave that made Cal back off. He shrugged and walked over. Megan stood up and the couple kissed lightly. "I'll see you after work." He exclaimed to his wife. Meg nodded and watched him go. On the way out, the mail man brought the mail to the door. Megan took it, thanking him. "What's this?.." She opened and she to was called to court to. Something huge was about to go down and it made Megan sick thinking about it...

Sally lay in the bubble bath with headphones in. Tuning out the overthinking in her head and the tiredness she felt after their adventurous day. Eyes closed and completely relaxed. Lightning peeked in once or twice to check on her. After her bath, the couple planned to relax on the couch and watch a movie. Lightning went ahead and prepared a few snacks and got the movie ready through the remote device. He wouldn't dare tell Sally, but he was worried too. But honestly, even if Cleo got away with anything, no way she'd be set free. She had way too much on her plate.

Sally stepped out and into the kitchen where Lightning was grabbing himself a drink. "Hey." She greeted. Lightning turned and smiled. "Hey beautiful." She really was beautiful. Wearing ine of his hoodies and socks. This look brought back memories. "You immediately look like twenty years younger." He joked. Sally rolled her eyes explaining "I was cold. Your hoodie was there and I like how comfortable I feel in them." "Yeah, but.. You use to wear them. Now days you always wear these night pajama set things." Lightning reminded. Sally nodded and asked "True. Would you rather I go change into one of those sets now?" "No, no. You look really hot. Dressing like we're twenty somethin again." Lightning answered and smiled.

He missed those days. The days where he returned from a long weekend of racing and Sally would run into his arms, basically jumping into them. They'd kiss like he had been gone for months, make love like they might not get the chance again. The times they'd go and relax on Sally's couch in that little bitty motel room of her's. He'd be in some plain shirt and sleep pants, she'd most times wear his hoodie and a pair of her sexy thin stockings. On purpose he could swear!

"What is it?" Asked Sally. Lightning smiled answering "Just.. You dressing that way brings back some very good memories." That made Sally smile back. "Come on. Let's go watch the movie." She took his hand and guided him to the couch. And for a while, the couple watched their movie, romantic comedy, Sally's favorite kind. And Sally lay over Lightning's shoulder. Both growing tired. Both silently worrying about what would happen when they got back home. "I miss the kids.." Sally whimpered. Lightning sighed and agreed. "Me too.. But.. I'm sure their having a blast." He assured. Sally nodded adding "Probably running Cal and Megan wild." Lightning chuckled at the thought of Cal chasing Colton down or breaking up one of the small arguments the boys had often. They watched the movie a little more, but didn't even make it to the next scene before Sally asked "Do you have any fantasy we've never tried that.. You would like to before this trip ends?"

Lightning was surprised she asked really. He silently thought about that. Did he? "Hmm.. Not.. Really? Not that I can think of. Why? Do you?" He asked. Sally thought about that herself now. Did she? "No.. I can't think of any." Lightning lay his hand on her knee before exclaiming "You should dance for me more often. You were amazing." Sally sat up and stared at him.."Really?" she asked. Lightning nodded. That made her feel extremely proud. Then thinking of that dance, thinking of how she cuffed him. Lightning asked "What other things did you bring? Besides the cuffs, vibrator and mask?" Sally made herself comfortable in his side before answering that. "I also brought a gag and a wearable vibrator. Ofcorse I didn't understand what it meant until after I got it. I also brought a whip.. Very small one and a um.. Flesh light.." Lightning stared at her.

So many questions now in his mind. "Okay, first off, a flesh light? Really? Why would we, just why?" He asked. Sally shrugged. "I was told some men like it. You like strange.. Things.." Lightning's brows lowered. "If I'm gonna fuck something. It's gonna be you." He was firm. Sally nodded. then the next thing, "Go get this wearable vibrator. I wanna see it." he ordered. Sally nodded and scurried off. She took a little bit of time..This left Lightning in wonders about that flesh light. Why? Why on earth would she get that? Sally returned with one kinda small purple box and the long tube. "No. Put that thing up." Lightning ordered. He knew immediately what it was!

Sally set both on the table then explained "I will not always be available. And this.." She grabbed the flesh light that looked like a streel rod. "This is the Cadillac of manholes." "Don't say that word again.." Lightning growled with a curled nose. Sally snickered and opened up the tube, showing the many and I mean many different shapes within. "Has buttons to make these move, this area here tightens and sucks it says and here rolls right agaisnt the tip.." Lightning didn't look very happy about it. Some men might LOVE that their wife would buy them a toy like this, but Lightning found it rather awkward, maybe even embembarrassing.

"I don't need it." He growled then grabbed the box. Wearable vibrator huh? He read the back and realized what it was. It was a small u like chapes toy that had three levels of vibrations. The toy could be worn in underwear, pressing slightly inside the woman and her clit and featured a remote to control it up to so many feet away. "What?.." Sally muttered. Lightning smiled answering "Not now, not tomorrow, but I can not wait to use this on you." The way he said it so happily kind of made Sally nervous. The couple went back to their movie and cuddling.

They watched most of the movie. Lightning glanced at the flesh light. Just seriously, why? And he thought about what she had asked. Anything he'd like to try? Hmm. Tough one. He really tried pretty much everything on Sally that he ever wanted. Well, actually there was the one thing that he never even asked of her because it waa way to much. She would never do it. And that was a three some. Not necessarily him fucking two women. But like the girls in vegas that he and the boys saw. It would be hot to see Sally and.. Hmm. Nope he stopped himself from thinking about that further.

"Stickers." Sally whispered. "Hmm?" "I love you." She said with a smile as she snuggled into his warm body and under his arm. Lightning snickered with a smile and kissed her head. "I love you too." And he really did. He always did. Never stopped loving her and never would. Even if the toughest of times which were bound to happen again...

Heather stirred and awoke from her sleep. She felt sick. Different than the usual pregnancy sickness. She felt wet. She nudged Bobby awake. "Bobby.. Bobby.." He snored a bit. "BOBBY!" "WHAT!?" he was awake now! "I think.. I peed myself.." Heather admitted. Bobby yawned and flipped on the lamp next to him. "That's okay.. I'll grab a towel." Bobby tossed the blanket off and stood up to hear Heather whimper.

"Bobby.." He turned and the sight of blood between her legs sent immediate shock through his system. "Get to the car. I'll grab some pants.. Fuck.. Okay um.. That's not a lot um.. Doctor said some light bleeding is normal when um.. Your water breaks.." "This isn't LIGHT PINK BLOOD BOBBY!" "OKAY!" He frantically got pants, shirt, shoes and helped Heather to the car. Trying his best to remain calm and get her to the hospital as quick as possible. Heather grabbed her phone. "I'm calling the hospital to tell them we're on the way." Bobby held Heather's hand tightly as they worry for their son. "It'll be okay.." Bobby assured which Heather just nodded. Telling herself he was right. Hoping it was nothing...
