Lies
Lie: to make an untrue statement with intent to deceive.
Skye entered the lakehouse doors, she wore the clothes of the previous day,
they were wrinkled and dismayed. She quietly shut the door behind her, dropping her purse and keys on the table she proceeded to make her way to the couch. As she sat down she let out a sigh of relief.
He wasn't there to badger her about her whereabouts of the previous night. Not that it mattered because she would just talk her way out of it, like she did every other time. Sooner or later he would waltz through the doors and demand explanations. At least she was good at what she was doing, she considered herself to be one of the best fabricators in the universe.
But, right now she didn't want to think about that, she wanted to take a long hot shower, washing the essence of Nikolas and spent sex from her skin. She leisurely made her way into the bathroom, not bothering to shut the door behind her, she began unbuttoning her shirt, as she slipped it off her shoulders, she reached into the shower turning it on.
She held her hand under the water testing the temperature, retracting her hand, she finished undressing. Skye carefully stepped into the shower, the hot water pulsated over her skin, erasing his scent from her, the only thing she was left with was the memory of their passion.
Just as the prospect of relaxation began to take her physique over, she was interrupted, the shower door flung open, letting in a draft of cold air. Skye gasped
"Jax, you scared the hell out of me"
"Sorry" He mumbled, "Are you nearly done?"
"Well, I was" Skye answered putting on her fake smile as best she could.
"Hurry up then, I want to talk to you"
"Alright" She quickly agreed
Jax just stood there, his eyes glued to her, he was lost deep in thought.
"Do you mind shutting the door, it's getting a little chilly in here"
"Of course" He shut the door and wondered out into the living room. About twenty minutes later a dampened haired Skye appeared.
"What did you want to talk about?" She asked taking a seat across from him.
"I want to talk about where you were last evening"
"Oh, I see" Skye replied, letting her eyes wonder down to the floor
"You see what?"
"That you don't trust me" Skye challenged
"Skye, I never said I didn't trust you, I just asked you where you were".
Skye brought her eyes up off the ground, "If you trusted me, it wouldn't matter where I was"
Skye's sarcasm irritate Jax, "Just inform me where the hell you were".
"Fine, I was at my fathers" She didn't know why she said it, it was just the first thing that popped into her head.
"Really? All night?"
Make it believable Skye. make it work, she told herself, "Yes, I went over to talk with him, he didn't get in until late and after we were finished it was quite late and he demanded that I stay there instead of driving back here".
"And Monica allowed that?"
"Monica's out of town on business, some sort of doctors conference"
"Well, that certainly makes sense" Jax admitted, more to himself than anyone
"Jax?" Skye asked changing the tone of her voice
"Yeah?"
"Where did you think I was?" She asked innocently
"I didn't know"
"Really?"
He wanted their relationship to work, the best thing to do was to be honest after all she was willing to give him a second chance after he ripped her heart apart. "Well, I thought you were with someone else".
"Who would I be with?, I have no lovers that returned from the dead, unless the one has surfaced but, I'm pretty confident he's dead after all a couple of us buried him". Skye concluded innocently.
"Is this continually going to be about Brenda?" Jax demanded
"Well, Jax, our marriage bed was pretty warm when you jumped into her arms, she never loved you like you wanted her to, don't you get that by now Jax?"
Jax knew that Skye was right in her justification, "Sometimes love isn't sufficient"
"And what is Jax? Trust?, Is that it, you could trust Brenda?"
"Brenda wasn't who I thought she was".
"Wow, you use that extenuation alot".
"It's not an excuse, it's the truth"
"Maybe Brenda and I should form a "We're not who you think we are" coalition".
"Whimsical Skye"
"Well, Jax, does Brenda still hold your heart? Or did she get it confused with Sonny's?"
"You like Sonny, Skye?"
Skye paused before answering, wondering what he was getting at, "No, why would inquire that?"
"You talk about him alot"
"That doesn't mean anything, I talk about Alexis alot, I'm not all the crazy about her either"
"She got you off on murder charges"
"Yeah, because she was the damn killer or should I say Kristina, seriously Jax, for a lawyer, she's a nut case".
"Saved your ass though didn't she?"
"Saved Brenda and Jason's asses too Jax" Skye pointed out.
"You're the one that always mentions Brenda"
"Well, she ruined my vitality there for a while".
"I'm back aren't I?" Jax knew that as soon as he said that last sentence that he was as good as dead.
Skye started to fume, but she knew that she had to remain calm. "Oh, so I should be thanking her for giving you back to me, because you're such a great prize".
"It wasn't like that and you know it" Jax defended himself
"I understand the entire second chances thing, Jax and that's what we're doing here, having a second chance at happiness, can't we just let the past fare?"
"Fine, no more about the past, we'll just eradicate those moments from our lives and look towards the future".
"Jax, I really want things to work out for us this time, I love you, I want to be with you forever, you're the only one, don't you know that by now?"
"I love Skye and things will work out this time. No secrets"
"No secrets" Skye agreed.
