Over Troubled Water (BWWM)

Chapter Five

Present

Michael Point of View

I couldn't stop yawning and wanted more than anything to lay my head in Jenny's lap. "Come on Michael, you know you want to" Jenny said. I couldn't help but smile. No matter how bad it got she always let me sleep on her lap, it always helped me sleep.

"Do the thing Jenny." She started massaging my head with her fingers and I drifted off to sleep. Jenny began shaking me. "Wake up. I don't want you messing up my dress. It took forever to iron." It didn't matter what her dress looked like she was beautiful. She'd gotten curvier after having both of the boys which I couldn't complain about. But it made it harder to keep the men away. I couldn't help but watch the sway of her hips as she entered the meeting room. When I first brought her she was so nervous. Then I remembered how brave she was when she voiced her opinion. I greeted Paulie, and sat at my seat at the end of the table. These meetings were always boring but they had to be done.

The meeting was wrapping up when Jenny looked at me. She gave me the 'something is wrong' look. I briskly walked over to her. "What's going on Jenny?"

"I don't know but something doesn't feel right." Jenny was very observant and I always trusted her opinion.

"Alright let's go." We began to leave when bullets rang out. I looked over at Jenny who was screaming. Blood stained the sleeve of her dress. It was only a flesh wound and the bullet grazed her arm. I literally saw red, my men restrained the man and I nodded they knew what to do. I brought Jenny back to the hotel room and got the first aid kit. It was just graze, and Jenny hadn't cried even though she had almost been shot. I've never been so angry in my life. How dare they attempt to shoot at my wife. I was so wrapped up in bandaging her arm that I didn't realize her staring down at me.

"Bella I am so sorry."

"It's ok. Michael I can deal with it." I knew she was trying to be strong for me.

"No it's not. I would have no idea what I would do if I lost you."

"Does the mean you still love me?" she said with tears welling up in her eyes. How could she ask me that I loved her more than life itself.

"I could never not love you, my darling." I kissed her beautiful lips and began to take of the rest of her dress. I thought it was selfish that she was almost killed and I wanted her right now. She began kissing me back. I hadn't had Jenny in over two months, and I was going to have her. She was only in her lace panties and she looked so beautiful. I began to strip off my clothes. I ripped off her panties and kissed her with all the desperation in the world.

Jenny's Point of View

He stripped me and kissed me. I needed this, I had never been so scared in my life. I need my husband back. My family back. I needed myself back. He quickly thrusted into me, and for the first time in a while we made love. For the first time in a while I had hope for us, for our marriage.
