Hunter's POV

After Cal had run off, Morgan and I made our way back inside and collapsed on the couch. I soon became
mesmerized by her warmth and her beauty, as she lay back against me, letting me stroke her beautiful long
brown hair. We stayed that way for a while, not saying a word, the only sounds being Morgan's occasional
sniffle.

"Can we stay this way forever?" Morgan asked, placing her arm across my chest, giving me an untimely
feeling of peace.

"I wish we could, love." I murmured against her hair. "I really wish we could."

Morgan gave a sad smile. "Why does Cal have to come back? Why now? Why is it he waited this long to
seek his revenge?"

"I don't know, but no matter what happens I will not let anything happen to you." I replied, kissing her
forehead.

Morgan took my face in her hands and kissed me, first slowly then more fierce and more passionately.
I wrapped my arms around her and carried her upstairs, to our bedroom (my old one; which was no longer bare and unlived in.) Gently, I laid her down on the bed, following suite.

Morgan's POV

Hunter laid me down on our bed and lay right beside me. "I love you.."

"I love you too."

He leant over me, blocking out my view with his face and kissed me fiercely. Being me, I fought fire wire
fire, kissing him with the same fierceness that he had shown me.

Oh love.

The next morning I woke up in Hunter's arms. I smiled. This is how every day should start off, I thought.
The events of last night came rushing back to me. Cal. Cal was back. My smile faded and I sat up. Hunter
stirred beside me and I relaxed back into his arms.

"Morning, my love." Hunter smiled.

"Good morning."

"How are you feeling?" He asked, a little concerned.

"I feel better, but the thought of Cal being back in Widows vale scares me. He could be anywhere. He could
even be in the closet." I said and pointed to the mahogany closet on the other side of the room.

"I can guarantee, that Cal is not in the closet, love." He smiled again, half serious.

"It was a figure of speech." I said and gave him a quick kiss on the lips. "I'm going to take a shower."

"Well, I think I had better join you then, you know, for protection." Hunter said with a devilish grin.

"As you wish."

Thankyou to everyone who reviewed and I'm so sorry this took so long to update.
