Isabelle woke up the next morning. Randy was still asleep. Isabelle got up and dressed. She was sitting on the edge of the bed putting her shoes on.
"Where are you going?" Randy asked
"For my run." "I was gonna wake you up before I left." She left him kissing her shoulder.
"My shoulder feels better."
"Good."
"Stay."
"I have get in my exercise."
"I can help you with that." He put his hands around her waist.
"Stop that. She said smiling.
"Come here, please baby."
"Ten minutes, that's all."
"Ok." He laid back. He got on top of her. "Morning."
"Morning."
"You look beautiful."
"I'm in my running outfit."
"Like I said, beautiful." They kissed.
A half hour later Randy walked Isabelle to the door.
"See ten minutes, plus twenty." Randy said.
She laughed. "You're such a bad influence on me."
"No I'm not." They kissed.
"Bye."
"Bye."
Isabelle had two days off. She was at home with Stephen. They were at the barn. She hadn't been there since they started fixing it up. They were about to go inside.
"Seeing it in person is way better then the pictures." Isabelle said.
"Wait till you see inside." "There's still a lot of work to be done but it's coming along." They went inside. They was still most old sticks and dirt on one side but the other side was clear and the floor was being redone. "See?"
"It's looking nice."
"I told you." He walked about twenty steps and up to runned down stairs. "After we get this stairs fixed, what would you think about archway we get married under being right here."
"I love it."
He went over to her. "It's gonna be so perfect."
That night as Stephen slept Isabelle was torn up with guilt and confusion. He knew she loved Stephen but couldn't deny her feelings for Randy. She never in a million years thought she'd be having an affair.
The next day Isabelle was sitting at home. Stephen came through the door with a brown paper bag full of cedar wood.
"Isabelle?" He called.
"I'm in the kitchen Stephen." He went into the kitchen sitting the bag of wood on the table. "Hi."
"Hi." They kissed.
"What's with the wood?"
"I got it from Mike's for helping him with his new computer." "I figure when the time comes, I can make our baby's crib."
"It'll look nice."
That Monday Isabelle was at the arena making a coffee. Randy came up to her.
"Come here." He whispered in her ear.
They went down a hall. As soon as they were out of sight he kissed her. She broke it. "Randy we're at work."
"I know." "Sorry." "I just needed to do that." He handed her his room key. "Spend the night with me."
"Alright."
He gave her a quick kiss. "I've gotta go." "I have to go get changed." "I- "I'll see you later."
"Ok."
Recently a reviewer told me I should change things up. I agree. Not very long ago I had an idea that was very different from all my other stories. I told you guys about it and you all shot it down. You said it was to dark. So it isn't like I haven't tried.
