A STORY FOR OUR SISTER, LYSANDERSANGEL
In a small village on the outskirts of france lived a young women, Martine. She was loved by everyone, ever since she was born. Her father runs the town. He has the most money and wants only the best for everyone.
Martine was turning 21in a few days. Her father wanted her to have a big party with the whole town. She was excited about the idea.
Her father always spoils her. For her 5th birthday he gave her a horse. Her 10th was a boat and her 18th was a trip for two weeks in China with three of her closes friends.
Her father has not let her leave since she went with her friends. She got hurt and spent most of her time in hospital. A peace war had begun and a lot of innocent people got hurt.
Martine was taken to a hospital far from where everyone else was taken to. The staff weren't told that she was one of those hurt in the fight, so her bills weren't covered by the government.
A soldier man felt sorry for her and told her that she would be covered by him threw marriage. He told her that they can get married then devorsed before he leaves. Perfect.
She was also excited for the party because it would be the night that she will get engaged. Her father had many different men to choose from. They all come from good homes, wealthy homes.
Martine was taught at a young age that it's not always about love. All you need is a man that is good to you and can provide for you.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Martine woke up two days before her birthday feeling strange. She decided to go for a walk along the river near the bridge. The bridge is the only entrance to the town. Martine would go to see all the people that come and go wishing it was her.
She took her shoes off and splashed her feet in the water. She has very long legs to go with her slim frame, brown eyes and brown hair with a streak of turquoise threw it.
She was looking at the fish swim around her feet as she walked on the little stones. A big fish swam a little too quick making her loose her footing. Martine slipped on the stones falling back towards a big rock.
She was ready to hit it when she felt arm's catch her. She opened her eye's and saw a hairy faced man with long hair. She freaked at first but then noticed his eye's.
M" Jared" J" How can you tell" M" Your face was wrapped in bandages when we met in the hospital. I only know you from your eye's". Jared helped her out of the water and they sat and talked.
M" Why are you here? Did you know I live here?" J" Yes I did. I ran into one of your friends and she told me. As for the reason I'm here, I was told that you will be engaged in a few days" M" Yes my father has already got a few men in mind" J" Your father does?" M" Yes".
Jared looked at her strange but then realized it's not his place to judge other people's culture's. J" I came here because we are still married" M" What, how?" J" I was sent back home before I could finalize it, and when I got back it was too late. We have to do all the paperwork again".
Martine started to panic. M" What if my father finds out" J" I'm sure he'd understand" M" No he won't. He never approved it" J" I will explain" M" He will kill you".
Jared wrapped her hand in his. J" I will fix this". Martine took a deep breath then looked at him. M" You can't go to him like that". Jared looked at his reflection in the water. "I am over due for a shave".
Martine took him to her apartment. She cut Jared's hair for him but he wanted to shave himself. Her apartment was small, a one bedroom with a living and lounge in the same room. The laundry was in a cupboard in the kitchen.
Martine went to her room to put some clothes away when Jared walked out of the bathroom. He was all wet with a towl around his waist, hanging dangerously low. He had a body to die for and that face, the best cheekbones.
Martine blushed as she covered her eye's. M" I'm sorry" J" Ha it's ok, we are married". Martine looked at him. He had the most gorgeous smile. M" Not funny".
Martine walked out and sat at the dining table. As she waited for him she pictured what he would look like as he got dressed. Pulling up his pants over that bubble butt, those two dimbles on his lower back. His top dropping down over those abs. His muscles popping out of his arms as he pulls at his shoelaces.
She suddenly saw a hand waving in front of her face. J" Hello, are you there" M" Yes". Martine shook it off. Jared noticed that she couldn't focus and wouldn't look at him. J" Are you ready to go" M" Yes".
They walked to her parents place. Jared asked Martine questions about her life here. He wanted to know everything about her. He new there marriage was just a contract and not real, but her next marriage was going to be the same.
Jared came here to get divorced but the more time he spends with Martine, he wonders if he could be more than just an agreement. She's pretty, smart, kind, funny and has a pure soul. Exactly what he has been searching for.
They reached the house and Martine's farther answered the door. He gave Jared a death stare. F" Who is this? Why was he in your apartment? Are you sleeping with my daughter? ".
Martine froze, she didn't know what to say. Jared took a deep breath and spoke. J" My name is Captain Jared Leto Sir. You daughter allowed me to use her bathroom and no we are not sleeping together" F" Captain, what are you a pirate".
Martine laughed. J" There you are". Jared said as he smiled at her. J" Sir I need to speak to you, in private". Martine's father took Jared to the garden out the back as Martine stayed in the kitchen with her mother.
Martine was starting to worry, they had been gone for over an hour. Finally they appeared walking up the path, laughing. Martine was a little confused as to what was going on.
F" Ah Martine my beautiful daughter". Martine could smell the liquor on his breath. F" You have a wonderful husband here". Martine looked wide eyed at Jared.
Jared took her hand and walked her outside. M" Why is he acting like that" J" Because I told him everything. Even the part about wanting to still be married to you". Martine felt dizzy. Jared sat her down and knelt infront of her, placing a ring on her finger.
Martine held her breath waiting for him to speak. J" Martine. On your birthday will you do me the honor of marrying me, again". Tears left her eye's.
J" I know we don't know much about each other but I know I can make you happy. To tell you the truth, the first moment I saw you laying in that bed with the sun shinning on you. You looked like an angel, then you spoke and I fell in love with you".
M" So the devorse" J" I'm glad it never happened. I don't think it was ever ment to". Martine looked deep into his eye's and saw his pure heart. She lent down and kissed him.
When she pulled away she saw his smile was bigger than before. J" Do you think one day you could love me" M" I think I already do".
