OK attempting to start writing again, life changes have a way of changing when and if you get to write! So if anyone still recalls this story then hopefully you are pleased it's back. I will try (I stress TRY) to update and finish this story in the coming months. Still no storyline set, hopefully I wont disappoint anyone. Thanks, and on to it. Short one, but trying to get going.
Julie awoke just as the sun was setting behind a group of ominous looking clouds.
"More snow." she muttered looking at the sky. She turned her attention then to pulling herself off the sofa.
"Dean?" She called out sleepily.
"You awake?" He called from somewhere in the apartment.
"No I'm still asleep, I just like having conversations that way." she said rolling her eyes but smiling.
"You are the most perfect smartass in the world." Dean said walking in with a smirk.
"Why thank you." She laughed and moved allowing him to sit and wrap an arm around her.
"So what have you been up to while I was sleeping?" She asked yawning.
"Watched TV, made some calls about some parts for the bike. Talked to Jasmine…"
"Jas! She called? What's going on?" Julie interrupted hastily.
"It's ok don't get upset, Mitchell's appeal was denied. He's being moved to a new prison soon." Dean said quickly feeling her tenseness. He only relaxed when she took a deep breath and felt the tension quickly disappear.
"Do I tell her about the extra security or not?" He thought to himself, "She might get upset and stress out more, I can't upset her. It kills me to see her upset, she's finally started trying to calm down more." He rubbed his forehead in thought, oblivious to her being fully aware that he now had gone slightly tense. She sat up and turned to look at him.
"He looks so tried, worried. All because of me." She sighed sadly to herself. They sat there looking at one another for several minutes, each thinking about all the stress they were under. Finally Julie broke the silence.
"I'm sorry." She said softly, looking down. "I'm so sorry I've put you threw all this, I'm sorry you have to put up with all this. You have your own problems, and now mine."
"Jules don't. " He said putting a hand under her chin to look him once again in the eye. " Your problems are not your problems, they are our problems. Us together we can't be beaten, on the ice or off. Incase you haven't noticed I'm in love with you. There's nothing I would not do for you, no one else in this world has that promise from me. You can ask anything of me, anytime and I'll do it." He paused, "Except for one thing."
"What?" She asked barely above a whisper.
"Don't ever ask me to leave you, I'm not going anywhere ever. You my darling are stuck with me, for all eternity." He said softly, but strongly.
Julie couldn't help but be truly deeply touched. She knew he loved her very much, but she had to admit hearing him reaffirm it aloud in such a way made her love him even more, if that is even possible.
"I won't ask you that, but you have to promise me something else." She said echoing his soft yet strong voice.
"Anything." he responded.
"Promise you won't ever lie to me about anything, even if it might hurt me. No more lies I've had enough of them. And I vow to do the same, no lies." She said looking deep into his eyes.
"I promise." He said almost breathlessly. "You know don't you?"
"That something is going on, and you aren't sure to tell me or not?" She asked slightly smiling. "Yes Dean I know."
"Wow, you are amazing sometimes, no all the time." He smiled.
"Funny, you don't need to flatter me, you already won me you know." She laughed.
"I know, I just like reminding you. You forget sometimes I think." He said leaning in to give her a quick kiss.
"You can think?" She muttered out just before their lips met.
"Hush." He commanded softly, kissing her.
Sadly the moment had to end very quickly, to both of their unhappiness. Dean shook his head and got up.
"That would be Jasmine I'm sure." He smiled down at Julie.
"Ok so you gonna tell me or is she?" Julie asked taking his offered hand and stood beside him.
"I'll let her." He said squeezing her hand before dropping it and walking to the door.
Jasmine stood there as Dean opened the door. Smiling she started in yelling hello to Julie and running to hug her. Julie pleased to see her didn't notice the two men with Jasmine. Dean did, and figured it must be security. All was well till Julie noticed one of the two men.
"Oh my god, YOU!" She said.
