The Right Choice Chapter 71
They stayed in Lydisia for about a week, deciding to go back to the village to see Celina, Thomas, Laurie, and Aryk. The older sorcerer had decided to settle in the village for the time as a protector. You never know when a sorcerer is needed. Word of the Duchess's injury had reached even here, and the others were waiting patiently to see if she would remember them. "I... remember this place..." she said. "We danced here... did you propose to me here?" she asked Grayson. "I did," he replied. "As we were dancing." She smiled at him. The whole trip there, she had been remembering bits and pieces of their lives.They had bypassed Knocklean. It was too soon to bring back those memories. It was too soon for both of them. The last thing he ever wanted was to remember the times he almost lost her.She had Grayson help her off her horse as they arrived in the village. She stood there for a moment and looked around. "I gave birth to the twins here.""You did," he smiled. "This is where I c

I Like You Not Molly sat in the back of the class with her head down, trying to concentrate on her work. The boy next to her, Chris, was shooting rubber bands at the side of her head, while she diligently ignored him. “Hey Smelly Molly,” he hissed. “Why don’t you go home and cry? Oh wait, do you even have a real home?” He snickered and high fived the others around him like he had just made an award winning joke.Yes, Molly’s family was poor. It was just her and her mom, and her mom tried really hard. She didn’t have the best clothes or shoes, and sometimes there wasn’t always food for breakfast. Molly knew how hard her mom worked as a secretary and was thankful for all they did have. She was fairly new to the school, having moved there at the end of the last school year. A few of the kids had seen where she lived, in a little grouping of houses just outside the town, and had informed the others she lived in a shack. Ever since, her classmates made fun of her for being poor, dirty, a

King Tobe walked the halls of the castle. It was the darkest hour of the night and he was chasing sleep through the hallways of the castle as if it were a lover using hide and seek as foreplay. He had had neither sleep nor foreplay in so long he’d forgotten what both felt like. The loss of his wife, Queen Aylese, a year ago had left him wretched and haunted – a ghost of a man that even the goddess of rest avoided.As he wandered the halls, he took a mental roll call of the night guards. He had seen many of these men as infants on the breast, and now he rented their lives to protect his. The irony that there was not much left of him to save not escaping him.Jacob. Brantley. Matthew. Jamil. He named them all in his head as he passed them. Grayson. Thomas. Eryk.“Who are you?” His roll call had been interrupted by a new face.The young man looked confused, almost hurt. The King knew all of their names, but he had forgotten him. “Weston, your grace,” the young man bowed.“You don’t belon

Put It On My TabAncient Greece“Tavern keeper!” Anthony called out as he walked through the door. “A bottle of your finest wine! Today is a wonderful day!” The tavern owner, Xander, eyed the newcomers suspiciously. “Coin first. Then wine.”“Of course!” Anthony slapped down a handful of coins and looked around the room to see if anyone noticed him. No one did. No one had noticed or cared when he came in, either. The tavern keeper counted the coins without picking them up. Muttering something about idiots not knowing what things cost, he turned around and grabbed a bottle from behind the bar. “Here.”“A man of many words, I see!” Anthony laughed. “It’s a beautiful day to be alive!” He tipped the bottle and his hat to Xander. “I will take my leave and enjoy my life!”As soon as the door closed, Xander heard the man wretch. “This wine is disgusting! The rich have awful taste.” Xander chuckled to himself and continued wiping the bar.1354Xander wondered what he had done to spend anothe

"I never want to make them with anyone else," he replied. She pulled him into a deep kiss, and he responded immediately. He lifted her off the ground by her bottom, and she wrapped her legs around his waist. "Excuse us," he said to Thomas and Celina, who were dancing nearby. He remembered there were tents nearby they could use. Thomas laughed, "I'm glad some things haven't changed with you two." Celina smiled at them. "Me too," Grayson agreed. "She's too beautiful to resist." Abigail buried her face in his shoulder. "How many children do you have now?" Celina asked. "Five," he answered without explanation. He carried her off of the dance floor. He carried her over to one of the tents along the edge of the dance floor. He set her down on the ground when they stepped inside, but only long enough to make sure the door to the tent was closed. He turned around then and grabbed her hand, pulling her to his chest roughly. She cried out in delight when he pulled her into a roug

After a few days in the village, they decided to head back to Odel. They missed the children and were both tired of traveling. Abigail was reaching the point in her pregnancy where she was getting nauseous frequently, and she just wanted to go home. Grayson sent word ahead for the children to be sent to Odel. They would officially announce Abigail’s pregnancy when they got home. He looked at his beautiful wife as they said goodbye to the others in the village, once again thanking the gods for her. "Ride with me?" he asked. "One of the guards can lead your horse." "Of course, Grayson," she answered. "Are you okay, my love?" "I just want to hold you," he answered. "I'm feeling particularly thankful for you today." She smiled lovingly. She sat in front of him on the horse like she did when they last left Knocklean. She leaned her head against him and enjoyed the view of the countryside. It was getting close to Palesun, but they still had the colors of Withergreen in the trees."I

Hello everyone! If you've made it this far, thank you! I hope you are enjoying it and the other bonuses I've left for you. In case you can't tell, the story of Abigail and Grayson is my baby. I'm not sure where to go with them because I feel like they've been through enough hardships. I don't want them to hurt again, especially poor Grayson. They deserve to be happy. Maybe its time to retire them and go with some side characters? Who do you want to hear about? Catherine and Rose? Thomas? Celina? Aryk? I could even do a side story about Laurie or a history of Alderei itself. I'm probably going to wrap up their story with the birth. They end up living very happily together, still not being able to keep their hands off each other. still the picture of a model marriage. Grayson worships her, and she does the same for him. They legitimately can not live without the other. Abigail is his anchor. if she were gone, he would definitely stray to the dark path. She is the light in his heart, c

They did end up having another set of twins. A boy, Benjamin Marcus, and a girl, Calista Christine. Ben and CeeCee, as they were called. That made three girls - Olivia, Charlotte, and Calista - and three boys - Samuel, Theodore, and Benjamin. They couldn't have been happier. Abigail had a little more trouble recovering from this birth, and Grayson had to use his powers frequently for the first few weeks to ease her pain. They both decided that the twins would be their last babies. They would use protection from then on. Grayson had actually brought it up, seeing what the birth had done to his beloved wife this time around. He wasn't sure what the issue was - maybe losing Sawyer had affected something inside of her - but he wanted to take precautions to make sure his Abby was alright. She agreed reluctantly, not wanting to disappoint him or limit herself or their sex life. He assured her that he cared more for her life than he did about having more children. He also assured her t

Six months later, they were married in a ceremony held on the lawn of her mother’s nursing home. Their mothers held hands and wept happy tears as Tony and Molly exchanged vows they had written themselves. Molly started. “Tony, you are one of the few people in this world who truly see me. You’ve always seen me as so much more than I thought I was. You’ve helped me realize my worth, and that I do have something to offer the world. Every day you make me feel like the most beautiful woman on the planet. You encourage me, you don’t just listen to me – you hear me. We have been through so much together, and I can honestly say I wouldn’t have gotten through half of it without you by my side.” She stopped to wipe away her tears, but Tony got to them first. She smiled at him. “You are better than any fairy tale or romantic hero. You have saved me in so many ways. I promise I will always be honest and upfront with you. I will always support you, and you will always be the best thing that’s ev

**Three weeks later**Molly called her mother on her way home from work, like she did every night. “Hi mom,” she said cautiously. “Hi baby girl, happy birthday!” her mom answered. It was another good day for Sarah.“You remembered!” Molly exclaimed.“I did,” she said. “There should be a package waiting for you at home, too. The nurses helped me.”“Thank you, mom,” Molly said with happy tears.“I just wanted to send my daughter something special,” Sarah said. “Not every day is your birthday.”“I still appreciate it,” Molly replied. “That’s because you’re a good girl,” Sarah said. “How’s Tony?” she asked, changing the subject. “He’s good,” she responded. “We’re both still doing therapy separately, as well as going together. It’s been really helpful. I’m going to call him later and he’s going to bring over dinner.”“That’s great, Molly.”“I know,” she replied. “I’d forgotten how much I missed just talking to him. It’s great to be able to talk to him again.”“I’m just hap

It was difficult, but they did the work. They went through therapy together and individually. Their couples’ therapist wanted them to just spend time together, not as couple or with anything sexual between them, so they could focus on building back their friendship and trust.The no sexual contact was difficult for both of them, but they stuck to what they dubbed the ‘muddy waters’ rule. They spent a lot of time together over the next three months, mostly talking, but also just sometimes sitting with each other. On Halloween, Tony brought over Horror House 3, which was the movie they saw on their first date. He also brought take out from the restaurant they had gone to that first night. Molly almost kissed him several times just because of how thoughtful it all was, but she stuck to the rule. She did allow herself to kiss his cheek, which caused him to smile and blush.They bent the rule a little when he put his arm around her and she snuggled up against him. They bent it even mor

He pulled back and looked at her. “When?” he asked, his voice cracking.She hung her head. “About two years ago. Right when we sold the house and put mom in the nursing home,” she said softly, angrily wiping away her tears. He held her hand, and listened. “I found out I was pregnant and I had been trying to tell you, but it was one thing after another,” she said waving her arm from one side to the other. “It was never a good time. The night I was finally going to tell you, I had cooked dinner and made it all nice and… you never came home. Not until it was very late, anyway, and you stank of alcohol. You said you’d been out with your coworkers celebrating a big deal.” Tony remembered that night. He had seen the set up when he came home, but had been too drunk to ask. When he’d woken up the next morning, it was gone and so was Molly. He had assumed she’d gone to work.“That morning, after I woke up I started bleeding,” she continued. “I tried to wake you but you were passed out, s

“I’m over here,” said a small voice filled with pain. It was coming from the floor on the other side of the bed.He rushed over and saw her holding her foot, her hands covered in blood. Without a word he grabbed a towel from the closet, wrapped it around her foot, picked her up, and carried her into the kitchen. He set her down on a chair before unwrapping the towel. Molly winced in pain.“What happened, Mols?” he asked gently, sitting on the floor in front of her.She sighed. “I think Orange knocked a picture frame off the dresser and it broke. I stepped on the glass.”He washed her foot off gently. “It doesn’t look that bad,” he said. “You won’t need stitches.”“Good,” she said. She was so tired. Tony could hear it in her voice. “That’s the last thing I need.”Tony cleaned her foot up and handed her a rag to wash the blood off her hands. He was quiet as he carefully bandaged her foot up. He kissed her leg and held her foot in his lap.“You broke the door,” Molly said, exhaust

“Molly?” he ventured.She was pinching the bridge of her nose, trying to hold up her towel and the journal with one hand. “Yes, Tony?”“What secret were you keeping?” he asked softly. He reached out and fixed her towel. If the towel slipped again, he wasn’t sure what he’d do. Molly was gorgeous and he missed her so much. She wouldn’t look at him. “It doesn’t matter now,” she answered. “Please don’t jump off a bridge,” he said sadly. She still wouldn’t look at him. “I’m going to put on some clothes,” she said.Before he could stop himself, he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close. “I don’t mind you in just a towel,” he said softly into her ear.She looked at him, confused. “Muddy waters, Tony, remember?” she said. “It’s your rule, not mine. I didn’t know you were out here or I wouldn’t have come out in my towel.”“But…” he started. “Do you want to get back together?” she asked angrily. “I…” he hesitated.“Please leave, Tony,” Molly said with tears in her eyes

A few minutes after Molly got in the shower, there was a knock at her door.“Mols?” Tony called. “Hey Molly, come on – open up.” More knocking. “Please, Mols.”Maybe she’s in the shower, he thought. He pulled out the key that Molly insisted he keep after he moved out, in case of emergency. Molly didn’t have any other family outside of her mom, so Tony was still her emergency contact. While being ignored wasn’t an emergency, he didn’t like the thought of her sitting by herself being sad. He still loved her. He had been devastated when she agreed to the breakup and didn’t even try to fight for him. He went through with the breakup because he figured she didn’t love him anymore when she didn’t fight it. They hardly saw each other due to work, even though they had lived together. They had both changed and things were different between them, but he still loved her. He knew she thought of herself as a disappointment, but he never did. The last few years dealing with her mom’s rapidly

No one paid attention to Molly Monroe. She was average. She blended into the scenery, unremarkable with her shoulder length brown hair, brown eyes, and glasses – she was every girl and no girl in particular. Only two people in this world had ever truly seen Molly Monroe – her mother and Tony.Tony Morales was her high school – and only – boyfriend. They had broken up about a year ago. The reasons were numerous. He traveled a lot for his job, her schedule was strange, and they never saw each other. The spark had disappeared. The break up had been ‘mutual’ in that he suggested breaking up and she knew she had nothing to offer him, so she let it happen. In high school, she had been the one ‘with so much potential.’ Now she was just a disappointment and going nowhere. She was sure that’s why Tony dumped her, though he was too kind to say it. At least they were still friends and he would take her calls. He didn’t just drop her after eight years of dating.God, she missed Tony. Almost a

Before I write any more, I want to be clear with anyone who finds this journal: my wife is the most amazing, smart, wonderful, kind, loving, and talented person I know.
