What if Isabella hadn't been pregnant, ultimately leading the man we came to know as John Black choosing Marlena. This leaves Marlena with a very difficult choice. It will be the biggest decision of her life.

This story is inspired by "A very Salem Christmas" which didn't have enough of the magic that is John and Marlena😍. I hope you will enjoy it☺️

John left Salem in 1994, after he was no longer able to live on the sidelines watching the life that he once had. No Isabella nor Brady. If the twins were 9 in 91, makes their graduation (in my timeline) 2000. It is soon after this that Marlena and John bump into each other. These chapters discuss the idea of regrets and fate helping two people who are meant to be. Quite the rewrite from the original version out there.

What is Isabella never existed and John was left alone in Mexico assuming Marlena had chosen Roman? Would Marlena show her true colors? And would Romans faults come to light?

John, Marlena, and Roman are pulled in as Pawn's in one last game plotted out by Stefano DiMera's diabolical mind. What happens when past lovers reconnect, and the real truth behind Stefano's hatred for the Brady's comes to light?

A different twist after the Affair... *I don't know how long this will be... or how often I can update. But it's been rolling around in my head and I had to get it out lol.*

After John announces he's leaving Salem with Brady, Marlena goes to the loft under the guise of returning Brady's forgotten teddy bear. The decision she makes that night changes everyone's lives.

This is my first John and Marlena Fanfiction! I hope you enjoy it. While I mainly write about Strummer, I decided to try to write about my favorite DOOL couple! This story picks up when John finds Marlena at the "new" Maison Blanche. I am hoping to fill in some holes we all wished had been filled. I hope you enjoy it!
