I must've fallen asleep because I woke up to the door opening, revealing John.

"Why haven't you eaten lunch and dinner?" The Baptist questioned as he picked up the two plates on the ground; Jason must've left them and knocked, but I probably didn't hear. "It's eight o' clock at night." He shut the door with his foot as he placed the two plates on his nightstand.

"I fell asleep after I ate breakfast. Watching tv got boring." I replied, rubbing the sleep out of my eyes. "It hurts to even move." I winced as I gradually stood up while pain shot through my legs.

John wrapped his arms around my waist and placed his head on my chest. "I'm sorry. I promise I'll be softer if there is a next time."

"John, it's okay. It's a good kind of pain." I chuckled, playing with his hair. Suddenly, I pulled away from him. "It'll definitely not be a one-time thing."

"What is it? What's wrong, sweetheart?" John asked, guilt flashing in his eyes.

"Uh— hmmm, yeah, this is gonna be super interesting... Uhhh, John, would you like to explain to my parents what the hell is going on with my neck right here?" I pulled my flannel down just a tad to reveal several hickeys, going down from my jawline on both sides and all over my body. "Or do I have to tell them when I get home?"

John placed a hand over his mouth to keep from busting out laughing at all of the love bites covering my flesh.

"Yeah... that's what I thought." I pulled the flannel up in a feeble attempt to cover all the bite marks. "Oh... shit." I rubbed my forehead as I felt a headache beginning to form. "Moral of the story is... I am fucked. Totally fucking fucked... Shit. What am I gonna do, John? What. Am. I. Going. To. Do? Goddamn."

"You don't have to go home." The Baptist suggested, rubbing the back of his neck as he gazed at my hickeys. "Rory... you can always stay with me?"

My eyebrows scrunched together in confusion, "Are you... are you asking me to stay with you?"

"Possibly."

I paused for a moment, thinking about his offer. "Are you sure? I mean— what does this make us?"

"If I wasn't sure, I wouldn't have offered. And honey, we'll be whatever you fuck you want us to be."

"We're supposed to hate each other's guts, remember?" I giggled.

"I could never hate you no matter how hard I'd try." John replied as he strutted over to me and placed his hands on my hips. "These past few days with you have been the happiest I've felt in a long time... Even if we've fought like cats and dogs." He snickered.

"John... this is so wrong... but it feels so damn right."

The Baptist nodded his head in agreement as he smashed his lips against mine... His hands traveled from my hips to my ass as he squeezed my cheeks, causing me to gasp; that was his chance to stick his tongue in my mouth. Our tongues were fighting for dominance as I placed my hands on his chest, gripping his coat, moaning into the kiss.

I eventually pulled away and stared up into his captivating ocean blue eyes. "John..." I sighed in frustration at myself. "I'm supposed to be with the Deputy... And I cheated on him... I feel so fucking guilty."

"Babe, don't feel guilty, okay? This is easily fixable. Just call it off if that's what you want. I don't want to pressure you into anything—"

I cut the youngest Seed brother off as I crashed my lips with his. After a few seconds, I pulled away, out of breath. "You're right. I'll break up with him. And I'll be with you." I nodded with a small smile on my face. "Yeah... That's exactly what I want. I want you... I need you, John..."

John smirked at me, "Yes."

Once John and I got done with our little talk, he ordered some Peggies to capture Pastor Jerome, Mary May, and Grace Armstrong and hold them hostage in Jerome's church; he wants them to atone and it'll lure the Deputy in. I'll be alongside the Baptist to help him and call it off with Corey. John then decided to radio Rookie.

"Your actions have consequences, Deputy. I've gathered all your friends here in Fall's End to Atone for your sins. You're welcome to join us. After all. If it weren't for you, they wouldn't be in this predicament... This is your last chance to say Yes, Deputy. Don't be late." John growled into the CB, knowing Corey was listening and shut his radio off.

I was in the passenger seat in one of the cultist's trucks while John was driving; there was a few Peggies in the back to protect us. Also, a couple vans filled with Joseph's followers were coming with us too in case shit hit the fan.

"John... I hope we don't die in there." I stated, worry coursing through my veins. "What if—"

The youngest Seed brother interrupted me, "Hey, hey... We're going to be perfectly fine, Rory, I promise. Trust me here. Everything is going to be under control. Don't worry. Relax..." He tried to console me as he placed his hand on my thigh.

I took a deep breath in an attempt to calm me down.

"We're almost there."

"I'm aware." I huffed, closing my eyes, scared of the outcome of this situation. "Is this a smart idea, John? I'm so fucking worried."

"Sweetheart, just calm down. I'll be beside you the whole time." The Baptist comforted me as he grabbed my hand and kissed my knuckles.

I opened my eyes and looked at him, nearly tearing up. "I'm so lucky to have you."

"And I'm so lucky to have you." John smiled as he pulled up to Jerome's church. "C'mon. Let's get this over with."
