Chapter 14
"I'm free to be whatever I
Whatever I choose
And I'll sing the blues if I want
I'm free to say whatever I
Whatever I like
If it's wrong or right it's alright
Always seems to me
You only see what people want you to see
How long's it gonna be
Before we get on the bus
And cause no fuss
Get a grip on yourself
It don't cost much
Free to be whatever you
Whatever you say
If it comes my way it's alright"
David sang cheerfully as he strolled through the winding hospital corridors to the exit.
He felt like the luckiest man alive.
Over the last few months his body had had to deal with more trauma than most peoples bodies would in a lifetime.
Of course he was more than proud of this.
Carol walked slowly by his side, during his time in hospital Carol had had ample time to think, she was confused, she knew deep down David loved her but her head and heart were telling her different things.
She loved him, but she wasn't sure now if she was in love with him, he had risked his life saving her in the fire, her feelings were now her biggest secret, she could never tell him how she really felt, her doubts, her dreams that had recently become reality, David being the family man, the committed man, all hers.
Its what she had always wanted, what she had always asked of him, and now she had it she wasn't sure she wanted it, she liked him as he was before.
It was now becoming clear to her the grass isn't always greener on the other side.
"Come on Carol smile" said David with a grin curling his arm around her.
She quivers, even his loving arms don't seem to be doing it for her now, she had a sneaking feeling David was picking up on this ill fated vibe.
"What's wrong darling?" He asked concern in his voice "you are glad I'm coming home aren't you?" He questioned.
Carol smiled, a half hearted smile "of course I am" she answered climbing into the taxi that had just pulled up for them.
David knew something was wrong but he decided not to question it, their wedding was tomorrow, he didn't want to upset the apple cart now, he had finally got her to agree to marry him, and with her mood of late he knew the slightest thing could tick her off.
They arrived home to be greeted by a plethora of people, mostly family, other members of the square had also gathered, including the Carter clam.
As David eased himself out of the taxi he was handed a large whisky by Mick along with a pat on the back.
He wasted no time in consuming the glass of fire water "oh nice drop of the devils poison that" he said with a cheesy grin handing the now empty glass back to a very chuffed looking Mick "my pleasure Mr Wicks, my pleasure"
David was now seemingly the local hero, not something he was use to, quite the opposite in fact.
Carol stood back watching as Roxy and Nikkie approached wrapping their arms around her man, kissing his cheek, running their hands through his hair. Anger boiled inside her, these bitches were touching her man.
The strange thing was she wasn't sure she even wanted him, however she didn't want anyone else to have him, especially these two blonde bimbos.
"David, you still need to rest" she growled dragging him into the house away from the crowd and away from these prowling women.
"Carol they only wanted..."
"What David? What did they want?" Snapped Carol, her heart pounding, anger surging through her cancer ridden body.
David took his coat off, hanging it over his arm "what's your problem?" He asked calmly "you've been acting strange for days"
"Nothing David" spat Carol hurrying to the kitchen and slamming the door behind her.
David took in a sharp breath as pain surged through his chest, he gripped himself, his subconscious was screaming at him to go after Carol, but he knew better, he wasn't going to get anywhere while she was in this mood.
He took himself into the living area and poured a generous amount of whisky into a glass before retiring to the sofa for some much needed relaxation time.
He spent the next hour alone channel surfing, refilling his glass, sipping, downing, guzzling.
Before he knew it the clock flicked to eleven twenty, Carol still hadn't come to check on him, he was beginning to wander if she actually gave a fuck about him, when he awoke in hospital weeks before she looked disappointed, the look of love in her eyes they once shared seem to have faded.
He had a gut feeling she didn't actually want him to wake up.
He grabbed the near empty whisky bottle and consumed the remains.
"Carol!" He called as loud as possible, he knew she would run, even if it was just to keep him quiet.
He was right "what is it David?" She bellows entering the room with a kitchen knife gripped tightly in her hand.
David swallows hard "um Carol put the knife down" he muttered trying to hold his amusement back.
The pair laugh and embrace each other.
Another 360 degree turn in mood here David thought to himself holding her close.
"What's wrong?" He whispered caressing her "have I done something to upset you?"
Carol backed away breaking their connection.
"I don't trust you" she uttered before leaving the room, leaving Davids head more fucked than Rolf Harris in a room full of disadvantage children.
He groaned to himself pulling himself off the sofa "I love you Carol" he called with a chuckle opening a new bottle, the amount of booze in this house could supply the whole square and then some.
"Move to Albert square, you won't need a cooker, washing machine or a permanent spouse, you just need to be prepared to live the life of some poor fucker from an episode of mid summer murders" David laughed as he spoke these words aloud to himself.
He sat down and continued channel surfing "oh animal hospital" he muttered placing the sky remote beside him "when EastEnders isn't on to depress me I can always watch animals being put to sleep"
He sips his whisky paying careful attention to the screen before him "i always wondered why Rolf Harris looked so excited when he was told they'd be looking at a young beaver" he chuckled finishing his drink and turning the TV off.
"That's me for tonight" he grumbled pushing his aching body off the sofa and untucking his shirt as he did so "I'm off to bed Carol" he calls.
"Fuck off" bellowed a voice from somewhere unknown, most likely the kitchen.
"Goodnight love" he replied with a smirk taking himself upstairs, Carol's irate mood was starting to cause a tingle in the trouser department.
Half an hour later...
David lay naked on the bed on his front, his erection pressing into the mattress, he heard the soft patter of footsteps on the stairs, a gentle breeze swept over him from the open window, the sound of small raindrops could be heard hitting the cobbles outside.
Carol entered the room, her eyes glowing in the dim light coming from the lava lamps David had scattered around the room, he greeted her with a mesmerising smile, stroking the duvet he nodded for her to approach him as he rolled onto his side revealing a huge erection "I've been expecting you" he whispered.
"You think you can get around me that easily?" Muttered Carol her eyes glued to this slice of perfection that was presenting itself to her.
David winked and nodded to the empty space beside him.
"Fuck off" spat Carol with aggression "David we are not meant to be, I can't be with you let alone marry you"
She was about to slam the door when Davids tender words stopped her.
"Well if that's the way you feel about it, then that's the way you feel about it"
Carol stopped and shot him a look, narrowing her eyes she was sucked in by his smile, his charm, his hypnotising voice.
"Is that the way you feel about it?" He grinned flopping onto his back.
Carol narrowed her eyes, biting her bottom lip, searching for words.
Some people spend their whole lives looking for someone, waiting for happiness, a person to love, a person to hold, to trust, to love them back. and she had it all right here laid out in front of her.
If she could only go against her fears and grab hold of this opportunity with both hands, maybe, just maybe things would turn out alright.
"What are you David?" She asked her tone low and full of confusion.
"Anything you want me to be" he whispered his answer lifting himself up off the bed and walking over slowly.
At that moment Carol had no idea what or who she wanted him to be, her malfunctioning brain was giving her nothing to go on, all she knew was everything meant nothing tonight, she just wanted fucked.
She allowed him to pull her close "come to bed" his whispered voice began to play havoc with her hormones.
She took his hand smiling as he kissed her knuckles and closed the bedroom door "Carol, my eyes are the only things I don't want to take off you tonight" he informed his nose skimming past her ear and down her neck.
Her breathing became shallow, rushed, full of expectations as he snaked his arm around her waist "fancy leading me round the house by my dick?" He murmurs.
Carol couldn't help but laugh, he always made her laugh, made her smile, made her feel complete.
She allowed him to undress her, closing her eyes she let her mind drift back to many years before, their first time seemed like yesterday and she could still smell the fresh aroma of his aftershave, his tender touch, his breath on her skin, nothing had really changed.
She moans as he plays with her, carefully slipping her out of her clothing, his touch so soft, she felt his eyes burning into her body, she grabs his head moving his lips to meet hers, they kiss so innocently "David" she moans in anticipation stroking his hair.
"Shush" he instructs making her obey him instantly.
A sudden noise made them both stop and turn in the direction of the wardrobe "what's that?" Carol shrieked making a grab for the bed covers and wrapping them around herself.
"Sounds like its kicking off in Narnia" answered David a smile playing across his lips.
"Get me out of here!" Came an irate voice.
David threw on his jogging bottoms and carefully opened the wardrobe door only to find Bianca and Terry half naked.
David screwed his face up "um am I interrupting?" He questioned innocently "only me and your mother are trying too..."
"I know what you were doing!" Spat a very annoyed and embarrassed Bianca covering herself and dragging Terry out of the room.
"Evening Tez!" Chuckled David watching the door slam, he turned his attention back to Carol.
"Its not about them, it's all about us" grinned David letting his joggers drop to the floor, his cock was only semi erect now, but still very appetising, Carol licked her lips "fuck yeah give it to me" she demanded seductively clawing the bed covers "enter my fucking garden of Eden" she barked getting onto all fours.
David smiles and begins pleasuring himself, it didn't take long before his stiff horse size cock was dribbling with pre cum "you've been a naughty girl Carol" he whispered walking over, his horniness very apparent "did you play with yourself while I was in hospital?"
Carol smirked.
"Did you?" Questioned David sitting beside her.
Carol nodded, a giggling fit followed.
"Now that was naughty" said David climbing onto her back "you know what happens to bad girls don't you?" His breathing was fast, the sweat from his tanned perfect body showered down onto her bare skin.
He slowly moves behind her pushing her face down on the bed, he hurriedly guides her into a kneeling position before lining himself up with her now dripping hole, he slides in and fills her with pure intense pace, making her moan loudly "harder David! Fuck me till my wig falls off you bad boy" she wails as he pounds her harder and faster.
They soon cum together, Carol feels Davids hot creamy spunk shoot up inside her, filling her, overflowing her pussy.
They both collapse breathlessly on the bed and drift off to sleep in each others arms...
The wind woke them both whistling through the window, rattling panes, david ground and turned over pulling the duvet over his head, trying to ignore the wind, of course he couldn't, he had visions in his head of the window being flung wide open crashing against the wall, glass smashing, shattering everywhere.
Carol had seemingly nodded off back to the land of nod.
He smiled to himself, pulling himself up into a sitting position.
"Good morning bride and groom" bellowed Bianca bursting in with a tray "breakfast in bed" she continued placing the tray on Davids lap.
"Its toast Bianca, hardly the service I expect" chuckled David.
"Its toast for two" she started "anyway kids have eaten all the bacon and eggs and we've only half a tin of beans left" she informed sounding slightly offended.
"You've let them eat my bacon?" Hissed David with a mouth full of toast "its a lovely thought thank you darling, now about last night..."
"Dad please can we never speak of that again" Bianca interrupted quickly with burning cheeks.
David laughed and gave her a friendly nod.
"Right I better go and make myself look beautiful" she said cheerfully.
David glanced at his watch before coming up with an appropriate response "well be quick you've only got five hours"
Bianca shot him a death stare and threw a near by teddy bear at him "cheeky"
David sat smirking and licking him fingers before realising he had almost eaten all the toast, he groaned and gave Carol a nudge "Sweetheart, wake up, I've saved you some toast"
There was no response "Carol?" He repeated a little louder this time. Still nothing.
"Carol!" He yelled placing his hands on her shoulders and violently shaking her "Carol!"
"Oh what!" She snapped her eyes flicking open, an unmistakable look of anger on her face.
"Oh thank the sweet lord" he managed to utter, his heart was racing "I thought you were, I mean for a minute I thought you..."
"Had kicked the bucket and snuffed it?" She finished the sentence for him.
"Oh um well"
"I'm not ready to start pushing up the daises yet" she growled.
David smiled and buttered her toast for her "you know Carol, this time tonight we will be married"
Carol blinked at him looking bewildered, suddenly a feeling of dread fell over her, it was her wedding day, the day she was to become Mrs Wicks, the thought of this sickened her, she shook her head as she rose from the bed and hovered over to the window.
"Oi Carol, are you going to eat this?" Questioned David waving the buttered toast in the air.
"No"
"Waste not, want not" he answered shoving the toast into his mouth.
"David, can I have a few minutes alone please?" Carol spoke in a cold dry tone "actually, can you just leave the house now please, I don't want to see until this afternoon at the church" she continued.
David looked confused "but I need a shower, I'm still still sticky from last night"
"You'll be lying in a pool of blood if you don't move your arse now!" Screamed Carol,, eyes red, veins on show.
David shot out of bed "I'm going, I'm going!" He exclaimed grabbing his things and promptly leaving.
One o'clock in the in the afternoon was approaching fast, Carol sat in the back of a taxi with Bianca and Sonia, the church wasn't to far ahead. She didn't even want a church wedding, stupidity she had left most of the organising to David, who had as always gone well over the top, she didn't dare think how much money had been put into this.
The only decision she had really made and insisted upon was that she was to arrive at church via a taxi, of course David was less than thrilled but Carol had refused to back down.
She soon found herself outside the church, lots of people gathered, friends, relatives, even some people she hadn't expected to see had showed up.
"Right mum, let's go" smiled Bianca excitedly.
Carol forced a smile, she had a very bad feeling about all of this, as she got out the taxi she spied Nikki "what the hell is she doing here!" Carol spat with anger.
"Just ignore her mum" said Sonia pulling her over to greet the crowds of guests.
"You smell nice" chatted Ian "is it gin and tonic?"
Carol chuckled, she was finally smiling "I think I'll need a few of those soon"
She spent the next ten minutes meeting and greeting people before being informed that the vicar was ready, she had also been made aware that David had arrived.
"Here goes nothing" she murmured.
As she walked up the aisle to the sound of 'first day of my life' by bright eyes playing, her mind was spinning, she felt totally out of place, disoriented, she looked on ahead, David stood proudly a huge come to bed smile on his face, she was soon stood beside him reciting her vows.
She repeated after the vicar " I, Carol Jackson take thee David Wicks, to be my husband, and before God and these witnesses I promise to be a faithful and true wife" started Carol glaring at Davids grinning face.
David too repeated the vicars words, tears filled his eyes, he was finally marrying the woman be lived for, the one and only woman he had ever loved, he really needed a good cry after all this.
"Stop" uttered Carol "I can't do this"
An uneasy array of groans came from the many guests that had gathered, shock waves filled the room.
"What? What's wrong?" Whispered David angrily.
"This is all wrong, I don't want to marry you, me and you never worked before, you just feel sorry for me" she answered trying to hold back the tears.
The room had gone deadly silent now "how many of these people have you had your way with David? I know you've had Nikki, don't tell me you haven't because I know when your lying, your lips move" she pointed out wiping her eyes.
"Don't do this Carol" his pleading tear filled eyes burned into hers.
"How many more David!?" Carol demanded an answer, she wasn't backing down here "was I even the best you had this week?... I doubt it!" She screamed answering her own question.
"Iv been in fucking hospital!" His reaction caused laughter and an uneasy atmosphere.
"Like that would stop you!" Carol bit back almost immediately.
"Carol, please we can talk about this" whispered David glancing at the victor apologetically.
"You really expect me to marry you?" Sobbed Carol...
