Love at First Touch
Chapter 27 - The Road to Happiness
The gang reached their "secret" destination.
"My guys are tracking down this criminal as we speak, dear," John looks at Belle and touches her cheek. "God, I don't know what I'd do without you." He grasps Belle tightly as if never wanting to let go of his precious little girl. Tears streamed down Belle's angelic face.
"I'm so scared, dad. This has been the most terrifying time in my life. I'm so glad you are here to protect me."
"Sir, I'm sorry, but can you tell us who is after all of us if my parents are already behind bars?" Shawn asked.
"No one you know. Your parents hired someone to finish the job before they went to jail, just in case they couldn't do it themselves. Once my guys get this jerk, we'll all be safe and can live a happy life like we deserve to live." John tells Shawn.
Shawn reaches out his hand to Belle, she walks slowly to him and takes a hold of her. "This will all be over soon, I promise, my sweet angel. Once it's over, I promise, we'll be happy forever. I will make all of your dreams come true."
Belle smiled as she tried to stop herself from crying.
"This is so weird, it's like a soap opera! No wait, it's like an action movie, but in real life. my life, our lives." Mimi babbled on and on like a nervous wreck.
"Meems, calm yourself." Brady told her.
Mimi takes a deep breath. "Ok, ok, ok. Hmm, so how's the weather?" She shakes her head and hands violently. "Ahhhh, I can't do this! This is too overwhelming for me to just be calm."
"I'm here for you. Just stay close to me and think about the love we found and the love we have yet to experience." Brady said.
"Ooooh, I think I can manage that!" Mimi said in a giddy voice and went off far, far away into a daydream. Her eyes twinkled as sweet images of her and Brady ran through her mind.
Brady looks out the window at the sky. Can't you do something to help our family? I beg of you, make all of this terror stop. Brady sent out his plea, but felt no response. He closed his eyes.
The next day. "Are you sure?" John said to the person on the other end of the phone. He pauses for a response. "That's the best news I've received. I owe you one."
"Is it over?!" Belle said to her dad.
"It's over. The man has been caught and there is no longer a threat from Bo and Hope to our family. We can go home now." John replied.
All of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Mimi turns to Brady. "So, now you get to go home and I can nurse you back to health."
"I think I will recover quickly then. Actually, what if I fake my pain even after I'm fine just so you can stick around?" Brady said with a smirk.
"Don't worry, honey, I ain't going no where." She hugged Brady softly.
Shawn turns to Belle. "How about we take that trip after your brother gets better?"
"I'd love that."
John stood and looked at the kids and how much love they had for one another.
Marlena, I hope you see what magnificent love is in this room. It's all because of you.
Sorry so short, trying to get back into the writing and want to focus on positiveness and happiness for the next several chapters. Too much action. Lol.
