Chapter 12
Surprise!
Three weeks passed since Thomas woke up. He was being a great patient minus him constantly trying to kiss her ever chance he got. Thomas was trying hardest to heal quickly. He was almost there too. His back was the only thing keeping the crew in Monte Cristo. Angelica was worried about them staying in one place for too long. Her father was trying to find her and rescue her from Thomas, but she hoped he would give up. It killed her to admit that she didn’t want her dad to come and get her, but she was no longer his little girl that he could protect with an armed guard. She was married, and that was her husbands and her brother-in-laws job. She hated that her family was in pain, and she wanted to contact them and decided to as soon as they left port to send a messenger to her father, but not before.
Night had fallen and Thomas was sitting at his desk looking over his charts. His curly hair was over his face covering it from her view. Angelica took his bandana from him when he was sleeping and wore it herself. He tried to get it back but she wouldn’t let him have it. His ears went red when she would not return, but she didn’t care she liked it. Of course, she cleaned it after all he had worn it every day since before they married. She went into the closet trying to find something new for her to wear. The other dress was sweaty and dirty. She found a pretty red one that had a frilly top and was just off the top of the shoulders. The length went to about mid-calf, so it was obviously made for a smaller woman. She shrugged and changed in the closet.
“Tommy put those up and change! I’m tired!” He sighed and she heard him put his papers up. She changed into the silk red nightgown. She came out as her husband was blowing out the last candle. When the candle went out the room was filled with only moonlight. He smiled and took her hand and brought her too him. She was glad his front was unsown. It hurt to lay on him when they were all sown up. He sat her down on the bed and then climbed up behind her on the bed. His hands went to her shoulders and then down her arms and encircled her. His lips started to roam on her neck, as his hands hold her tightly too him. She leaned her head to the right allowing him to move more freely about her neck. Angelica’s skin was crawling with happy goose bumps. She turned around and looked at him. He watched her and slowly started to kiss up and down the front of her neck. Her head went back as he went lower and lower.
“Not yet Tommy please. . .” She whispered. He stopped and looked up sadly. He nodded in compliance and waited for her to make the next move. She leaned forward and kissed his lips passionately and deeply letting their bodies collide. He held her tightly and layed down as he kissed her as hard as he could. “Tommy…” She whispered in between a kiss.
“Yes…?” He said as he kissed her lips once more.
“Do you love me?” She said in a breathless whisper. He stopped and looked stunned. His hands went down as he looked her directly in the eyes.
“How can you ask that?” He said sounding hurt a offended. She shrugged as tears welded up in her eyes.
“Its just you never said it and I didn’t know if you just cared for me or if you loved me…I have to know Thomas I just… I just want…no I have to know. If the man I love…loves me back. . .” She whispered and looked into his eyes. He sighed and looked as if he was about to go and have a moment. She watched his face closely waiting for his eyes to in and out, in and out. His right one twitched for a moment as his upper lip did as well.
He tilted his head as he sighed shaking his head. “Angelica. . .” He stopped trying to find the words. Her heart beat faster and faster. “Why is he not saying anything? They are just three simple words… Please Thomas. . . Please” She thought as she watched him.
The door suddenly, burst open as men in uniforms came forth through the opening. They pointed their rifles at him ready to shoot Thomas if he moved. Nacio walked through the door, with his pistol drawn. It pointed directly at Thomas.
“Remember me Sir? You took my daughter and now I have come to take her back!” He snapped and then he smiled in relief at the sight of his daughter. “Miya…” He said with a huge smile.
Angelica hated the situation they were in but she could not help herself as she ran and hugged her father. She had missed him so much and loved him. “Its ok my little one. Papi is hear now he will never touch you again I will make sure of that.” Angelica took a step back.
“Papi I love him” She said softly to her dads face. Her dads face went white and then grew red.
“You tricked her brain! YOU DEVIL!!!” He screamed as he pointed his pistol at him. Angelica ran and pointed the pistol upwards caused it to go off in the ceiling. She heard Robert yell for men as he ran across the deck. Her father looked at Thomas who gave him a crazy smiled. “Grab her!” he ordered as one of the men picked Angelica up and tossed her over his shoulder and ran for the door. Thomas grabbed his cutlass and started to fight off the men with bayonets. She could only see what was happening behind her. Robert didn’t see her as he went running down the stairs to help his brother. When she called his name he didn’t hear her. She heard George’s brute yell as he came towards them. “DIE!” Her father yelled as she heard another gunshot ring. They continued to run as she saw George collapsed on his stomach blood being emitted from his body. The rushed down the gang plank when she finally saw Thomas and Robert running towards her. She shouted loudly for her father to let her go and for Thomas to come and get her. Her father tossed her in the carriage the soldier got in as well. The driver took off immediately sending them bounding down the street. She wanted to jump out of the carriage and run to Thomas but they were going too fast. She only got to look out the window as Thomas faded away as he ran towards her.
