Time Jumpers -Salem Witch Trials-

Part 11

John's POV

Telling Abigail the truth took a lot of weight off of me. She knew now how Angelica and I were once lovers but I was replaced once the doctor came into town. Though I didn't know who placed the spell on Abigail I promised to help her find out. Sitting here looking out to the lake I couldn't help but think about her now and the kisses we shared. Never had I felt a kiss like the ones I had from her. She was willing to accept me brash kiss and transform it into one of kindness and affection.

Keeping the mask around the bottom half of my face I am in town the next morning. Just in time I see Abigail walk out of the doctors house with him as her side. If I didn't know any better I would believe I saw fear on the good doctors face, she wasn't kidding when she said she could handle him. Still I wondered would she be able to take the witches on alone? Watching them I see Angelica walk right up to them and the doctor keeps close to Abigail almost as if he was showing Angelica he was on Abigail's side now. Our plan was working.

Abigail's POV

Jason was pretty easy to convince once he found out I could kill him whenever I wanted, no magic even required. Now standing before Angelica I can see a cold look in her eyes. She doesn't like that Jason was now standing beside me and wouldn't leave my side if he knew what was good for him.

"Do tell when shall the wedding be? I meant to ask last night at supper." Angelica says striking up conversation.

"We are going to make arrangements right now." I tell her as I lean close to Jason and act even more girly than I ever wanted to with a big smile plastered to my face.

"All we need to tell the Reverend is the date, then we shall truly be husband and wife." Jason says as he surprises me by taking my chin in his hand and planting a kiss on my lips. "Hopefully children won't be long after as well."

Of course he makes that statement staring me in the eyes. Ha! You wish pal, my boss would have me out of here before you even had the chance to get me in your bed. I am not Chrissy. Still I smile and hold him tighter.

"I wish you two both the uttermost happiness." Angelica says as she walks past us giving Jason a bit of a shove showing him her clearly pissed her off.

"She's going to kill me." he states clearly.

"Not if I don't beat her to it." I say as I separate myself from him as we enter the church.

Talking to the Reverend took forever, this wasn't the young one either so this old guy spoke extra slow. I swear I could have read the entire bible by now yet here he is still flapping his gums. Jason took my hand in his letting me know to pay attention to the end of this at least.

"You are pure are you not my lady?" the Reverend asks me, well in this time period that's a yep.

"Yes father, my parents raised me to be pure until marriage. That way I could give myself to the man I would love the rest of my life." I say looking into Jason's eyes as he give me a 'yeah right' look.

The Reverend continues and finally we set a date for that Sunday, Six days away that was how long I had to put together a wedding. Impossible...not in this date and time...in the future oh heck yes. Leaving the church I can sense someone in the shadows. I stop in my tracks as Jason looks at me confused.

"I think I left something at the church, go on ahead I will run and get it." I say as Jason shrugs and starts walking.

Following the feeling again I make my way behind the church to have someone pull me out of sight. My mouth is covered by a hand but unfortunitly for this guy I can kick his arse. Using my elbow I hit him right in the guy which makes him double over and release me. Turning to see my attacker I see John is the one of the ground trying to breathe. Oops. Going to his side I help him sit up.

"Where in the world did you learn to do that?" John questions me with a smirk on his face.

"I had four brothers, they taught me how to defend myself." I lie cause I can't tell him about my training.

"Remind me not to get on your bad side." he says holding his stomach. "When's the wedding?"

"Sunday, I still want to become the runaway bride and never see that toad again." I confess as I sit down beside John.

John laughs as he looks at me and shakes his head.

"You know the plan will work, will you please just trust me?" John asks and I not at him.

After 'finding my lost thing' I return to Jason's house to see him sober and looking through medical books. Wow there are times when he is sober...that is rather shocking. He finally notices me and walks up to me with book in hand and a happy expression on his face.

"You are a true rarity, no not a witch but I think you may even perhaps be an angel...though you have no problem threatening to kill people." he says as he looks back to the book.

"Well what do you think Arch angels do?" I question and he looks at me with a 'good point' attitude. "Why are you trying to identify what I am?"

Without even looking at me he looks through even more books, well this seemed to be another pattern.

"That way if you are injured I can heal you." he says shutting another book.

"I thought you didn't care what happened to me? Why in the world would you want to heal me?" I question him and this time he does look at me.

"Because you are pure and good. Over the close to month I took care of you, I do believe I fell in love with you...if love even exists." he says walking up to me. "Maybe you can help me be forgiven for all the evil I have done in my life."
