A few hours later and the kids had finally gone to bed.

"So you going to tell me why you're actually here?" Tess said to me seductively.

"Look, I took the kids out after school and didn't tell her, so she punched me in the face and broke my nose. So I came here with the kids. Oh and I also came because I love you lots and lots," I said pulling her in towards me for a kiss. "I need help Tess," I said as I broke down crying.

"I think what Nat has done to you is appalling! How long has it been going on for fletch?" she asked me.

"Too long to remember. I even think she has hit the kids, that's why I took them! I haven't been a very good dad, I should have protected them before now," I cried.

"Look, first thing tomorrow, before work we will call the police. This is assault darling. And I'm more than happy to have you and the kids here, so we can be together without worrying about having the affair. I love you fletch and I want you to move in with me!"

"I love you too!" I said pulling her closer to me. We latched lips, avoiding my nose, which was hurting like hell.

We began to get passionate, when I picked Tess up.

"The bedroom please my dear," I said, carrying her attached to my waist up the stairs to her room. Once there, the clothes were removed and we began to have passionate sex in her bed.

"Oh my god, harder, harder," she cried. Then all of a sudden as we were both on the verge of orgasm.

"Tess Bateman, will you marry me?"
