Under Attack

Under Attack (3)

"You dick!" she almost yelled, her voice shaking. I looked at her and saw she was about to cry, I chuckled and wrapped my arms around her, holding her close and stroking her hair.

"Sorry honey I just couldn't resist. What are you making for dinner?" I smiled at her and kissed her cheek.

"I'm making meatloaf." I smiled at her and kissed her lips gently and followed her into the kitchen. She peeked inside the oven and I could tell it was almost done.

"It smells good sweetie." I ruffled her hair and she swatted my hand. She knows I only do it because I think she's cute and short.

"Get out two plates" she pointed to a cabinet, "Two cups," she pointed to another cabinet, "and two forks." She pointed to a drawer. I did as she asked while she pulled the meatloaf out. I set the plates on the counter near her and filled her cup with milk and mine with water. I took them into the living room and placed them on the coffee table then went back to the kitchen. I grabbed my plate and fork then waited for her and went into the living room. We sat and ate dinner as we watched T.V.

"This is amazing Sweetie." She beamed at me and paused in eating long enough to nuzzle my nose against hers. I smiled and ruffled her hair again. When we finished I washed up the dishes and she put them away. We returned to the couch and put on a scary movie and snuggled up together. Once it was over we each did our own night time routine and crawled into bed. She insisted I spoon her and I chuckled and gave in. I pulled her close against me, kissed the back of her head and rested my hand lightly on her waist. I quickly realized how thin her pajamas were and prayed she didn't get poked. I heard her sigh happily and I closed my eyes and we drifted off to sleep.

I woke in the morning before her and stayed very still. She was so cute sleeping. It was about nine am but I didn't dare disturb her. At some point in the night I ended up rolling onto my back and she shifted so she was half on top of me. My hand was resting on her back and again I realized how thin her pajamas were and cursed myself silently. I smiled at her and carefully slipped out from under her and made my way to the restroom. After I went pee I pulled on some pajama pants so I wasn't just in my underwear and sat on the couch with my phone. I looked up the clones and my heart dropped.

"Shit" I muttered to myself when I saw that some of the clones in Texas and California had escaped.

"Why'd you curse my love?" She said sleepily and I jumped. I hadn't heard her follow me and I smiled at her.

"No reason sweetie. Come here." I laid on my back and opened my arms. She came over and laid on me. I put a blanket over us and wrapped my arms around her. She and I went back to sleep. When we awoke for the second time it was around eleven. I woke her up and kissed her forehead and went to pee again and got a glass of water. As I was reaching up to get a glass she came into the kitchen. She came up behind me and wrapped her arms around me.

"Clones are escaping." She whispered and I sighed. At least none are here I thought silently. I rubbed her arm.

"None are here sweetie its OK." I set down the glass, turned around and wrapped my arms around her. She relaxed against me and I held her for a second. Once I was sure she was ok I returned to the task of getting water and made some pasta for her and I. We ate and curled up on the couch together and fell asleep again.

The rest of the weekend and week passed without much event. Mom called me a lot begging me to come home. I'd tell her to talk to dad and she never would. I paid her a couple visits over the week. Every time she hugged me and cried and begged me to come back. I slowly moved my stuff out the following week and mom cried more. I found out Jane was a virgin and she begged me to make her one no longer. I gave in and made her wish come true. She was so happy and begged almost every other day. Every time she did I would chuckle and ruffle her hair and kiss her. It had been almost a month since I started living with Jane. I looked up the situation of the clones and my heart dropped reading the short article.

Clones free all across the globe.

Every clone everywhere is free, it started with one in Texas and two in California. Then all one hundred of them that were being held in delta got free. Then all over the world. These clones have gotten smarter than when they were first made. We think that they may have been communicating without talking.

"They all rebelled at once. Every single one of them got up at the same time. They all walked forward and broke their cell doors. They then proceeded to overwhelm the guards and are now searching for the original person." Doctor Robert said, "all the originals need to hide quickly."

I was worried about mom and then wondered about Jane. I looked back towards the bedroom where I knew she was at probably dozing slightly after our long day of work. Thank god it was Friday.

"Jane, sweetie, come here and have a seat." She came out looking worried and scared. I reached out and grabbed her hands. "Honey the clones have all escaped." Her face drained of color and she started to cry almost instantly. I pulled her into my lap. I stroked her hair softly and frowned. She muttered something against my chest and I just barely heard her. She had been having nightmares about this. I told her to get dressed since she had changed into one of my hoodies and lost her pants somewhere. We walked to mom's house, well more like I carried her while I walked. I walked into mom's house and set Jane on the couch. I went into the kitchen where I heard mom was cooking.

"Have you heard about the clones?" mom shook her head. "All of them, everywhere, have escaped and the clones are killing off the originals. The doctor that made them says the originals have to stay indoors." That was a lie but whatever. Mom's face had drained of any color and she leaned against the counter. I pulled her into my arms and held her gently until I heard Jane scream. I released mom gently and ran into the living. When I got there, dad was kissing her cheek and wouldn't stop hugging her. I knew where this was going.
