in which their marriage was falling apart. [Limited chapters] Started: August 7 2019 Finished: May 8 2020

Dakota winces at the pain but let's him clean up the wound. Hank puts a small thing of ice in a ziplock bag, wrapping the wet cloth around it. He applies it to her cheek, seeing how it's already bruised. She'll feel it in the morning. "I shouldn't of left them alone in the house. Especially while you were sleeping." Hank holds Dakota's face, cradling it. "Drew would be so pissed." "He wasn't perfect, he would forgive you." Dakota says in a lower tone, "You're doing the best you can." Hank pulls her to his chest. He kisses her forehead, rubbing circles on her back to calm her down. Dakota lifts her head up, their eyes connect. He wipes a tear from her cheek, cradling the side of her face as he applies the ziplock bag of ice to the other side. Dakota's hands slip up around Hank's neck, leaning into him. She looks down at his lips, sniffing. Hank knows what she wants, because he wants it too. She leans her forehead on him, closing her eyes. "Can you stay with me tonight?" Dakota sniffs, "I can't sleep alone after that." Deep down inside of him, Hank knows it's wrong. She's a minor and Drew's little sister. It's bad enough they kissed. That he wants her. He wraps his arms around her thin body, nodding his head. "Yeah," Hank says softly "mine or yours?" "Mine," Dakota sniffs, burying her face into his shirt. *WARNING* Some parts are kind of rough and maybe kind of rushed or boring but please bare with me.

"Shh, Baby! Wake up." I hear a familiar voice, "Shh, it's okay now." My eyes heavily open, my vision is blurred. I feel constricted. Hot air blows down my face. Something warm brushes my face as I whine. "No, no, no!" I softly whine. "Shh, it's okay Princess." I feel lips brush against my cheek, "It was just a bad dream." I wipe my eyes with my free hand, looking up to see Evan. His arms are tightly wrapped around me, his body on top of me. He stares at me softly, his hand tenderly on my cheek. "Evan?" I whisper. Evan begins to pat my back, lightly bouncing me. I guess to wake me up. I sniff, the tears keep falling as I lightly whine painfully. He begins to talk to me in an annoying, attempt to be soothing, baby voice. "Baby, quit crying. It's okay. It was just a dream. You're safe, I'm here now." Evan kisses me temple, I put my hand on his muscular chest. "Evan?" I say softly, my voice breaking.

Samara comes closer to me, now studying my face. Her eyes are wandering all over my facial features. I contort my face in confusion at her weird stares, "Umm, hey-" "Listen, can you wear my wedding dress and be a bride at my place?" She questions. Ec-excuse me? I give her a long stare. I think she is joking and would burst into laughter any minute...but she doesn't. Her face has no trace of humour. "What?" I quirk up my brow. "You've to be a bride at my place." She repeats with no hesitation. Cold shiver trickles through me. .... An Accidental Bride. A Mistaken Groom.
