Chapter 2: Secrets Revealed

An hour and a half after dinner Jackson Fuller and Chloe Donovan stood in a very nice wedding chapel and after a short ceremony in front of the six members of their family, the two were declared husband and wife. The limo that Jackson rented to bring his family to the wedding chapel was still present and returned the group to the hotel after the ceremony was completed. Jackson and his party walked casually through the lobby back to the dining area and the group returned to their private dining area. Upon walking through the doors the party found a cake on the center of their table along with tea waiting for them. Jackson asked everyone to return to their seats and after they did so Jackson began walking around the room with his cell phone for a bit pulled out his remote and pressed the button.

"Jackson, what are you doing?" Max asked his older brother looking at him like he was insane. Despite his normal happy-go-lucky persona Max was less than thrilled about this entire trip and even less joyed to see his older brother after his extended absence. Ever since Jackson's sudden departure and the way he did it changed Max's opinion of his brother. Jackson's abrupt exit tore a big hole in his extended family and hurt their mother immensely.

"Checking for listening devices Max. I just turned on a jammer so even if something is on a delayed timer, no signal will leave this room." Jackson explains as he sits down beside his wife. Before Max can comment any further his younger brother elbows him in the ribs. He has waited just as long as everyone else to hear what Jackson has to say and he has the entire ride home to listen to Max's bellyaching.

"So, let's start this story where everything began, the day I left home. Everyone here knows when and why I left San Francisco. It's the after that was in question. Well, the answer to that is very simple. I took one of the job offers presented to me. The one that promised me lots of travel to far-off regions and exotic locals. Of course, I knew when I took the job there were going to be many undesirable locals as well. You see the company that I went to work for was based out of Langley, Virginia."

"Wait... Langley, Virginia?" Danny Tanner says realizing where Jackson is heading.

"Yes, the company I went to work for was the Central Intelligence Agency," Jackson informs his family. He lets that information sink in for a moment. "Once I completed my training at what is called The Farm, I was assigned to the Department of Domestic Operations and Clandestine Affairs. From there I was placed on a team with five other highly skilled operatives. For six years my team and I traveled to every country on this planet doing all sorts of operations for the CIA. Some of these operations were simple, some not so much. Before anyone even thinks about it I will never tell anyone about any of those operations. That is for your own safety and mine." Jackson explains.

"So you're a spy?" Tommy asks his oldest brother. Tommy had come up with multiple possibilities for what his oldest brother might be up to during his time away but spy was nowhere on that list.

"Pretty much yes. I work in the field collecting data, disrupting enemy data transmissions, and getting shot at. Other times I sit behind a desk coordinating field operations... but mostly I'm in the field." Jackson clarifies.

"Wait... so that group of gorillas you travel with... they're spies too right?" Chloe asks for clarification. She can visualize the five guys that work with Jackson right now.

"Yes, those gorillas as you call them are my teammates," Jackson says with a smile.

"So, three years ago my team was re-tasked to the U.S. for the first time since our formation. We were assigned to a building in Phoenix, Arizona. On our first night back in the states my team and I went out to diner... It was at that restaurant that fate brought me back into Chloe's life." Jackson says picking up her hand and kissing it. "The first weekend I was in the state she helped me find someplace to live. A short time after that we began dating officially. Six months from the day we started dating I asked Chloe to marry me."

"So all these out-of-town assignments you went on?" Chloe asks for clarification.

"Overseas missions of a classified nature. Every single one of them." Jackson truthfully answers his wife.

"The reason you were three weeks overdue?" Chloe questions.

"We were in Fallujah, Iraq getting shot at by terrorists." Jackson honestly answers.

"Why didn't you tell her this before Jackson?" Max asks.

"Confidentiality clause in my contract Max. Only my wife can know. I'm bending the rules some by telling all of you but I can pass the test because they will ask me if I told anyone, I will answer yes truthfully. When they ask who I will produce my marriage license and say, my wife."

"So... what now?" Chloe asks Jackson.

"That is entirely up to you now sweetheart. I love you. I want to be married to you. You need to tell me if you can handle this part of my life. I can't promise to always be safe, but I will do my best to always come home to you." Jackson tells Chloe.

Chloe then grills Jackson with every question off the top of her head. Jackson answers them without restraint for the first time in three years. "Ok, are you hiding anything from me?" Chloe asks Jackson.

"That's kind of a loaded question Chloe. My job requires me to hide things from you. You need to be more specific." Jackson tells his wife.

Chloe rethinks her question. "Ok, Jackson... are you hiding any spy stuff in our house?"

"You have a house together?" DJ asks her daughter-in-law.

"Oh yes. He bought it the weekend he moved to Phoenix." Claire informs DJ.

"Thanks, mom," Jackson says to Claire. "To answer your question Chloe, yes. Our security system is military-grade which is why we have all of those warning signs. Also, I have an armory of weapons in my study and a pistol in the headboard of our bed. I also have a run box hidden in the study."

"And what precisely is a run box?" Chloe ponders aloud.

"On the off chance that I am... how shall I put this... "let go"," Jackson says doing the quotations with his fingers, "I have a box with fake ID's, an unregistered pistol, and a large amount of cash. We will take it and run. I don't know where but it's there as a safety net."

Chloe looked like she wanted to follow up on that statement but Jackson placed a finger on her lips. "We have plenty of time to talk about things that might happen in some dark future down the line. I answered your questions, can we now just enjoy today and forget that you ever thought about calling off our engagement?" Jackson asks his wife.

Chloe hears what Jackson is saying, lets it sink in, and then smiles. She did indeed get the answers she wanted and was promised. Chloe was pleased with Jackson's responses and kissed him for saving their relationship.

"I have one last question for your Jackson," DJ says. As happy as she is to have her son back she wants to hear this from her son. "If Chloe had not threatened to call off your engagement... would you have reached out to us?"

"Mom... I love you all dearly, but my life... it can be very dangerous. I kept myself separated from you all for that reason. I didn't plan to run into Chloe and if I didn't fall head over heels in love with her I would have continued living a solitary life. So as much as I hate to say it... no, I would not have. Not because I don't love you all or didn't miss you every day I wasn't with you, but because I worry about what can follow me home sometimes. I spent six years getting used to life without my amazing family, but Chloe was persistent in wanting you in it." Jackson tells his mother. "As hard as it was to live without all of you I couldn't live without Chloe. She is the reason we are back together."

DJ accepts the answer that Jackson gave and turned her attention back to her daughter-in-law. She knows and understands Jackson's plan and despite the fact that there will be the "true wedding", as far as she is concerned Chloe always will be. "Chloe Fuller, in the short time I've been around the two of you I can see how special your relationship is. I'm so happy that the two of you found this kind of love and if her threatening to leave Jackson is what it took to get my son back then thank you Chloe, and welcome to our family."

Chloe scooted close to DJ and says, "No, thank you for giving me the strength to go through with my demand." The two women hug one another.

Jackson absorbs what was said and a notion enters his head. He will talk to his mother about it at a later date but for now, it isn't important. For now, all that matters is that Chloe and his mother are happy, which makes him happy.

After telling his family about his secret life and answering the numerous questions he felt comfortable telling them Max and Tommy left as they wanted to hit the swimming pool while it was still open. Likewise, Danny was tired from the long trip and bid everyone a good night. Steve, DJ, Claire were all still wired so they were all heading to the lounge for a drink and to talk amongst themselves. Jackson and Chloe said goodnight to them. Walking to the elevator hand-in-hand smiling at one another. It was not the ideal way to get what they both wanted but in the grand scheme of things, neither party could complain about the results.

Chloe and Jackson exited the elevator on their floor and walked hand in hand to their rooms. Chloe was about to release Jackson's hand when he pulls her against his body. Jackson kisses her with all the passion he can muster and Chloe gives in to his advances.

"Get a room," Max says as he stands waiting for the elevator to return. He is in his swim trunks, flip-flops, and holding a towel. Tommy closes the door to the room they are sharing with their grandfather. He is decked out in the same apparel as his older brother.

"Go jump in the pool," Jackson tells his brothers. The elevator chimes and Max just rolls his eyes and enters the elevator.

"Good night guys, pleasant dreams." Tommy slyly states as the elevator door closes. Jackson swore he heard Max gagging before the doors close.

"Despite his tone, I think we should take Max's advice," Jackson says giving Chloe another kiss.

"Jackson, what about my mother." Chloe reminds Jackson in between kisses.

"You're forgetting something Chloe... this is our wedding night. I don't think your mother is expecting to see you until tomorrow morning." Jackson reminds his blushing bride, who is actually blushing. Jackson swoops Chloe up into his arms and kisses Mrs. Jackson Fuller.

As they wrestle for control of their liplock Jackson breaks the kiss momentarily and says, "Inside... lft... pkt." Chloe catches his meaning and snakes her left hand into his inside left pocket and pulls out the keycard to Jackson's hotel room. It is only now though that Chloe realizes that it is their hotel room.

The newlyweds listen and hear the door's lock give and pulling the keycard out of the lock, Chloe pushes on the door handle Jackson carries his bride over the threshold. Jackson deftly removes his shoes while holding his wife safely in his arms. Once they are off Jackson walks forward and only when they have reached the bed does Jackson lower Chloe. Chloe kicks off her shoes and slips out of her gown and reveals the sexy purple lingerie that she is wearing to her husband. While it is not traditional wedding night quality lingerie it is still quite sexy on Mrs. Jackson Fuller.

Chloe assists Jackson in removing his suit coat, tossing it onto a nearby chair. Next, the newlyweds unbutton Jackson's shirt and pants until Jackson is standing in only a pair of boxers and socks. Jackson pulls off his socks and tosses them beside his shoes. Chloe slips her fingers into the sides of Jackson's waistband and lowers them until they fall to his feet, a puddle of cloth. Now naked before his wife, Jackson watches as Chloe reaches behind her back and unclasps her bra. Shrugging her shoulders she allows the bra to fall in front of her feet. Jackson now places his fingers inside her purple lace panties and slides them down her sexy hips until they are a puddle of lace at her feet. Stepping out of the lace panties Chloe slips backward onto the bed.

"Jackson... I know we are legally married now, but I'm still on the pill. I didn't plan to go off of it until the end of June to give my body time to work them out of my system." Chloe informs her husband.

"Smart planning love," Jackson tells Chloe as he slinks up onto the bed. Jackson motions for Chloe to roll over onto her knees. Chloe follows Jackson's lead and she hisses as Jackson's member slips between her lower lips into her wet center. The two have been lovers for over two years now and they have learned a great deal about one another's bodies in that time. Jackson's touch excites Chloe to this day as he is a very caring and attentive lover. Sometimes they make wild quick love. Other times it is slow and drawn out over long periods of time. Tonight is something different. Tonight is special and very meaningful. Even though this marriage will be short and temporary the meaning behind it is not. Jackson loves Chloe, he wants to be her husband and soulmate. He wants to mate with her and give her the family she has always wanted. Normally they both use protection and have every time with the exception of their first time. Now Jackson wants to show her what she has to look forward to.

Jackson starts out with long slow strokes into Chloe. She feels his bulbous cock head sliding into her and kissing her womb. His hands are traveling from her hips, up her sides, and grazing her 33B cup breasts. Chloe whimpers as Jackson proceeds to do this over and over again for several minutes. Chloe bites her lower lip when Jackson all of the sudden slams his hips forward and forces herself to contain her groan of pleasure. Her husband's hands are now holding her breasts and his soft yet manly fingers take hold of her rock-hard nipples and squeeze them as he begins pumping his hips harder and faster into her. Jackson's hips begin slamming harder and harder against Chloe's athletic backside.

"Oh god... oh my god..." Chloe says releasing her lip.

Jackson's eyes are closed as he continues to thrust his cock into his wife. Every time his hips come into contact with her ass their skin slaps together louder and louder. Chloe is thrusting herself back every time Jackson pushes forward and the two are breathing hard and loud.

Time is all but lost as they move as one until Chloe finally declares, "I'm coming... I'm COMING!"

Jackson has been holding back and waiting for Chloe to explode. Jackson finally releases his essence as Chloe reaches her peak and screams aloud. Jackson is now holding her hips and the two are firmly connected as Jackson unleashes load after load into his wife. Chloe has fallen into the stack of pillows and it is only after her body gives out that she falls down onto the bed, completely spent.

Jackson pulls out of his wife and carefully lowers himself down and wraps his body around Chloe's spent form. Chloe feels her husband pulling the linen over their warm sweaty bodies as Jackson interlaces himself with her. Chloe pulls Jackson's left hand with the temporary wedding band on it and kisses his left ring finger with her ring on it. Despite the fact that it is not the one she purchased for him it is the symbol of what it represents that she loves.

"You better be this good in six months," Chloe tells her beloved husband with a wicked smile on her face.

"Hmmm... in six months I'll be even better," Jackson promises his once and future wife.

Chloe places Jackson's left hand atop her breast. Before she passes out she says, "Jackson, how am I going to get to my room to change?"

"You can borrow one of my robes and use the adjoining door. My keycard can get you in." Jackson tells her kissing her behind her left ear.

"My husband thinks of everything," Chloe says as she drifts off to sleep.

Jackson simply holds his love in his arms tightly. Twenty-four short hours ago things could have ended very differently. Who knows what would have happened if he had not made that one single phone call to his mother. Chloe is Jackson's life, there is very little doubt in his mind about that. However, there is still a small part of Jackson that wonders what would have happened if he had not called his mom. He wonders if Chloe really would have walked out on him.

It's better not to think about such things. Jackson thinks to himself. He finally allows himself to relax and he quickly falls into a deep sleep with his beloved.
