Finding Each Other Chapter 7
Macy had got out of the hospital and settled in at her uncle's house. She was still a little shaky, but she gave her statement to the police but was feeling pretty hopeless. This person left DNA behind but it being in the system to match it with. She had called Shane and he was so glad to hear from her. She didn't tell him over the phone what happened. Just asked if he could fly out to Bill's place and talk things out. But what she didn't know was that Shane had been talking things out with Marissa.
The doorbell rang and Bill answered the door seeing Shane standing there. "Hey Shane, how are you? How is Marissa and the baby doing?"
"It looks like they are going to be fine. That's the only reason I was able to come out here. Is she inside?"
"Yeah, upstairs to the left. I'm going on a ride with some friends. Give you two some privacy."
"Okay, thanks Bill."
"No problem."
Shane walked up the stairs and found the room she was in. She was laying in the bed looking like she just woke up. She smiled when he walked through the door. She came over and sat down next to the her on the bed and placed her hand in his. He was just so happy to see her but was shocked when she cuddled up to him and started to cry. Shane held her close to him.
"Hey what's wrong? Are you okay?"
"I was raped Shane."
"Wait...what?" He looked at her in shock.
"When I was on the phone with you. I was pulled away and some guy raped me. I have no idea who he was and I did the police report they are looking into it for now."
"Macy baby." He held her face in his hands.
She held onto him tight like she never planned on letting go. "Shane I'm so scared. I don't know what I'm going to do. I'm afraid to be anywhere by myself. It's caused me to miss work. They may not be able to figure out who did this to me."
"I'm sure they'll do everything they can to figure out who did this to you."
"Shane I just don't know if this is a good idea anymore."
"What? Is what not a good idea?"
"Us Shane, there is just so much going on right now for both of us and I can't handle anymore craziness. You mean so much to me, but I'm not okay right now. I can't be in a relationship with anyone right now and you need to be with your wife and child."
"Macy, I'm in love with you."
"Oh Shane please don't do this. I can't take this right now. You can't be in love with me."
"But I am, Macy I can't stop thinking of you. I don't know what to do here. I still love Marissa and I want to raise our some together. But I can't just go on without you either. I can't forget that I met you Macy."
"Shane, I can't trust what this is between us. We have a great connection Shane, but I can't help but think it's just lust. I don't know if that's what you were missing with Marissa. But maybe you just needed to get away and try something else to know that you really want to be with your wife. Shane, I love you too. But I need to get through this on my own. I need to get help to get through this. Please, it's not like I want to do this but I have to." Tears were streaming down her face. Shane held her close as tears began to fall from his eyes.
"Are you going to stay with the company?"
"For now, unless this is too much to handle. Bill told me you're stepping out for a while."
"Yeah, I'm gonna take care of things with Marissa and my son. You take care of yourself okay?"
"You too." She kissed him like she was never going to make it through tomorrow.
