Chapter 22: Nightmares

"You'll never escape from me! Never!" Andy shouted, and laughed. He was holding a stick, ready to hit his wife, who was lying on the floor. "Please, don't do that!" Prue begged him. "Do this?" Andy asked again, then hit her terribly in the legs, which has already broken. "Yes, please!" Prue replied, hoped he'll stop doing punish her at once. "You want it, you have it." Andy said, and continued striking Prue. She screamed, begged, even implored but it was no used. And when he hit her on the head, she's unconscious.

"NO!" Prue screamed, made Andy woke up after her. "What's wrong honey?" he asked his newly-wife.

"Don't you dare honey me! You hit me terrible then you said as nothing happened!" Prue yelled, as she pushed Andy out and took the blanket to cover the top of her naked body. She's still obsessed about her dream.

"Prue, I never hit you, if I did, I'd better kill myself. It's just a nightmare. Don't punish me like that. Please. I love you." Andy replied, nearly begged her.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I don't know what the hell is in my mind. You're right. It's just a nightmare." Prue said, realized in reality Andy never does anything to make her hurt, even a hair.

"That's okay. I understand." Andy said, hugged Prue tightly, wanted to comfort her. "We better go back to sleep. It's only 3 AM." He suggested.

"I'm afraid I'll get that dream again. Maybe we should talk." Prue replied, while pushed her husband down to bed, and buried her face into his chest. Andy yawned. "I'm very tired right now, but your wish is my command." He said, smiled with her. She smiled back.

"Finally we did it. We married." Prue started.

"Yeah, and we spent our first night as husband and wife and you got nightmare. Is it a good or bad sign?" Andy replied, as he pulled her closer.

"People said if you dreamt good then you'll receive bad and reverse. So I think we'll be happily ever after."

"Every night I dreamt you back with me and we marry, get kids, and spend the rest of our life with each other. So as you said, in reality you won't back with me, we won't get married, don't have any kids, and we'll live far away forever. Well?"

"C'mon, don't remain me about the dreams. What do you think about the wedding?" Prue asked, change the topic immediately.

"You were more beautiful than I've ever seen."

"You mean…I'm not beautiful right now?"

"No! You always beautiful, at least with me." Andy replied, and kissed her passionately. "Did you really want to suicide after your birthday party, like you said in the vows?"

"Of course I did. It's the only way to meet you again, if you weren't a whitelighter. Beside, I don't have to worry about the power of three, 'cause they had Paige replace me."

"No one can replace you, Prue. Especially with your sisters and me. Never think like that again, okay?"

"Okay." Prue replied, and kissed her husband again, before slowly went to sleep…

"Wake up, you damn lazy!" Andy shouted, when he got home realized his 'lazy' wife still asleep. "Where's my breakfast?" he asked, angrily, right when Prue just opened her eyes. "I'm sorry, Andy, I'll do it now." Prue replied, blamed herself for being late. She knew this won't be good. "Sorry? You always sorry, can't you be more active than just sit there and say sorry? Your laziness has reached to an unacceptable point. I have to teach you a lesson for this!" Andy shouted back, while took the stick and hit her harder and harder. Prue bite her lips, stand at her husband's angriness. She knew it'll be end soon, she'll just have to wait…

"Are you okay?" a man asked Prue, who just woke up after being punished by Andy. "Do I know you?" she asked. "I guess no. I just passed over and saw you lying on the floor through the window. Are you okay I'm asking you again." The man replied. Prue looked around. Andy had gone. She's now quite safe. "Yeah I think so." Prue answered. "Oww…My legs…" she groaned, because of the contusions on her legs. "Oh my God your legs nearly broken. I'll have to bring you to the hospital." The man said, worrying. "No I can take care of it by myself." She said. She had been in this situation hundreds time and now it doesn't matter with her. "Thanks anyway. I'm Prue. Prue Trudeau." She introduced. "I'm Bane Jessup."

A.N: Okay, sorry for the delay but right now I'm very busy with all the tests, soccer team, school,…(My school has started already!). What do you think about this chapter? Do you hate that damn bane? As much as I do? Reviews please!
