It was late afternoon on what seemed to be an extremely lazy day for the two of them. Most of it she was trying to make sense of whatever she was remembering. Everything was coming back in complete waves. He could tell when one memory triggered another because it was written on her face.
Every memory cause pain. Everything was coming back to her, but it was taking a lot longer than before. Everything was hurting her as well. She would go through times where she had to sit there with her eyes closed and then more times she was just sitting there with a blank stare on her face. None of it was making any sense to him as she would mumble things. Every once in a while she would look up and see him staring at her trying to read how she felt. He did not want her to strain herself either. He was finding he was having a few issues with the balance of everything when dealing with her.

A few days later of sitting in the dark and room Benton walked in from being downstairs in the lab doing whatever he was working on for the day. Luckily she had just gotten out of the shower for the first time in a few days for that he was grateful. Her hair was still wet and she had put it in braids. Her hair was just a little bit longer than her Shoulders he was glad that she was finally starting to take care of herself again on her own. She looks like she felt better for the first time in a few days. The doctors had been basically keeping her asleep most of the time except to eat and drink a few things. The medicine that she had been placed on was enough to knock her out very quickly. Benton had watched over her for the first day then he had gone to the lab the next day with her phone programmed that if she had it and sent him a message he would be back within minutes. There wasn't anything that he could do except wait for her. he was getting used to the idea of ha

“Can you tell us anymore about who was the one who hit you with the fishhook?” The detective said as he changed his tone very quickly after she was so open and blatantly honest even though it was extremely hard for her. It was written on her face how hard it was for her to talk about all of this. For her to even admit how hard losing her memory and getting her memory back and how painful it was that they can possibly understand every word. That was something that the detectives had not expected that she would be so open about. The fact that she had immediately started the entire conversation explaining that though she did recover most of her memory she was still in the process of placing everything and learning the meanings of everything again and who is extremely important in her life. They often didn't find with a lot of people that they actually questioned. “My ex was the one who hit me with the fishhook both times. We had gotten into a huge fight because h

When they went back to the private apartment they found a lunch waiting for them from Benton’s private chef. As she sat down at the table to eat because he was going to force her too if she didn't do so willingly. He wanted to share with her with what he had found the day before while she was sleeping. He had been doing a lot of research into some of the ideas that they had had the night that they had spent on the couch together. “So, over the past couple of days well you've been sleeping I've been doing a few research projects and some of the things that we discussed that night.” Benton began as she took a mouthful of the light salad that was in front of her. He wasn't going to push what she ate as long as she ate something. “I wanted to tell you what I found. First off, the whole idea of that go fund me website that you had told me about seems to have a lot of promise. I really do think that you should be the one in charge of finding people in need and I wil

Benton felt better knowing that he had given her something to do to take her mind off of everything that was going on around her. Including distracting her from her own memories. It was in important for her to be able to place everything he knew that but it was even more important for her to still continue to live. He wanted to make sure that he gave her something that was worthwhile that she could feel like she was making some kind of difference in the world and this was the easiest way to do it. The money was nothing to him. Even at the worst of times it was not going to be anything to him, and he understood the difference that was there between them. To her and people like her it was going to be a huge amount of money. More than she could ever have in her entire life normally without the help of somebody like him stepping in. To him it was nothing but chump change. He understood that. To him it was almost humorous to see her reaction when he had the bank ac

Over the next couple of days well she focused on everything having to do with the website and finding people to possibly donate money for and making a list for who's computer IT specialists who can find just about any type of information on a person so she could verify if their claims were true or not. Benton seemed even more focused on his project. However, he also noticed that even though he had made the claim to his mother and sisters that they had not shown up. That was completely unlike them, so he was expecting them to show up at any given moment. He was prepared to deal with that as well knowing that if they did it was going to put a target right on Kelly's head. Though she had her own apartment right next to his she had never been in it longer than five minutes. He had taken to sleeping on the couch and that had taking a toll on his back as well. He missed his bed, but he would let her use it until she was comfortable with being next to him again. Though they

Every day he didn't hear from his family he knew that they were planning something. As time went on and the days passed, he was finding it was more difficult to concentrate on anything because he knew something else was gonna happen. At this point he was just ready for his mother and sisters to show up. So when they did he wasn't all that surprised. He managed to get to the front of the apartment that he had and the main room that was in the middle of that before they had completely descended on his private area. Kelly was taking a nap, or he thought that she was laying on the bed at least. She appeared to be asleep. He didn't want them to disturb her. She was still having problems with sleeping. For her to find any rest was important. The last thing that he wanted was his family to disturb her rest. Right now, is the most important thing for her and at this time she wasn't having a nightmare so it was going to be restful and it would help her. He was not goin

He was grateful to find out that the door wasn’t locked when he went to turn the mob it had just been closed. She had seemingly disappeared was quite obvious that she didn't want to see or deal with him at the moment. It wasn't till he saw a huge pile of clothes already on the bed. He knew that this was going to be the fight of his life time. She wanted to leave. She had absolutely no idea that he had been talking about her and he didn't know how long he’d been talking and she over heard. When he could see Kelly again he saw that she looked like she was completely defeated. She wouldn't make eye contact with him at all and she wouldn't even look in his direction. She was at the point of searching for something to throw the clothes and so she could leave. There was a lot of other things that she had put on the bed as well. Benton knew that he had to act quickly and he needed to act right now. He walked over to where she was and placed his hand on her sh

The Kelly was one of the people that was easiest to get along with in the entire base some days were worse than others when it came to her having a headache or if she had not slept the night before. Benton had learned to be able to gauge her moods just by the way that she looked and when he walked into his own apartment, he was surprised to find her there about ready to scream at the curtains. During the day she like to open them to let the sunlight in. That was one of the ways that he could tell if she was having a bad day or not because if they were open, she didn't really have a headache but if they were closed and it was still early enough that the light was out and then she was getting the beginning of a migraine. Over the past few weeks and she'd been released from the medical Bay her headaches had been getting better but at the same time she did still suffer from the migraines from time to time when things got to be a little overwhelming. When they

It had been three months since they got married, and now it was time for Benton's birthday. He was turning 34, and he knew at that time that a few months ago, he would have never really put any stock into how old he was. Now he realized that he was ten years older than his wife. He also had one year to fulfill the clause that his father had left in the will. That didn't seem to be too much of a hardship for him, and he enjoyed trying to make sure that they fulfilled it. Kelly had made sure that everything was simple on his birthday for him. He didn't want to have a huge celebration. He just wanted to spend it with her. After all the work that they had done with the quantum diffuser and the different aspects of its building for different applications, this was going to be a relaxing weekend that she had planned for the two of them. They weren't even leaving the compound. They were just going to be spending it mostly in their private apartments. T

The day after the wedding, Benton had scheduled a news conference to discuss the quantum diffuser. He had also scheduled a little bit of a personal update. They were going to announce the wedding and the fact that they were happily married now. He was more excited about everything than he had been in his entire life. The more that they got settled into the compound together, the happier he was with everything that was going on. The news had broken with her name, considering how many people had been charged in the crime and how many other people needed to come forward to receive the money that they had donated. Benton had set up a fund that would pay everybody back because there was no telling where the money had gone since nobody had any in any of their accounts. He didn't want people to have to pay for being nice. All they had to do was prove that they had given money to that particular campaign on go fund me and they would receive the money-back no questions

“You may now kiss the bride.” was the only thing that Benton heard the entire time he was looking at Kelly. He knew that he had said his vows and that she had replied with her own. But that was the only thing that he could focus on. As soon as the officiant had said that, he bent down, and he gave her a very slow but not majorly graphic kiss. Cameras went wild, in everybody cheered for the two of them. “Welcome to the family chipmunk.” Penny sighed as she looked at Kelly for the first time, knowing that they had not been introduced before, but the small woman had been a part of every decision that her brother had made for her. “Chipmunk?” Kelly asked as she looked at a Penny. “It's just a cute family name that I don't even think Benton realizes why I call you that. It isn't the fact that you appeared out of the wilderness. I don't need to know the story. I have a feeling I already do, and if you need anyone to help you navigate t

That's when a new voice came from behind them. Benton hadn't even seen his older sister walk up through the arch of trees. “Mother, do be a dear and just sit down. Benton is finally happy, and he deserves this chance. He made his choice. And it's time for the family to support him instead of trying to get him to do what we want. His little chipmunk is the one that makes him this way. If he says that he's going to fulfill the clause, it doesn't really matter what happens to the rest of us. We should all be grateful that he was even willing to put himself on the line like that. However, this is his day. This is not the day for you to throw a holy fit in front of a bunch of strangers.” Penny stated very eloquently as she began to look around the area. She was slightly impressed with what everything had looked like. It wasn't like she had been to the area before, but she could see what had been done. “This is fitting for you, Benton. That you marry your little chipmunk an

The day was perfectly clear. There was not a cloud in sight, and there was nothing but blue skies and the warm rays of the sun beating down as they went to the area that she had chosen. There was an area that she could get dressed because she was adamant, he was not going to see her before the ceremony in the dress. The way that she looked at it was that she had already had it an extraordinarily large amount of bad luck that had turned to good luck. She didn't want to take any chances of anything else happening that could possibly ruin the day. When they got to the area, they split up, and Benton was already in his suit. He looked over the area and saw that everything was absolutely gorgeous. She had done so well with the help that he had provided her with the team that was able to do what she wanted to make this the perfect day for them. This was the day he never expected to come. He never expected that he would be the one getting married. Instead, he would b

The meeting with her father went basically the same way, even though the man seemed to show a little bit more remorse for the actions that he did. After the meeting, the detectives looked her over and saw that she had completely changed during the meetings. The woman that was composed that was in front of him right now was not the same woman who was in the interrogation room. It had all been an act on her part that she was so secure and happy in her life. She had made it a little more exaggerated to prove a point to her family. It was a good point to make. They understood why and so did the man that was standing next to her. She was happy, and that was easy to see. What had gone on in the interrogation rooms was her making sure that her family was going to know that she was well taken care of while they were the ones that tried to end her life. Benton took her back to the apartment and knew that she was probably going to have some kind of break. Though every t

They arrived at the police station holding hands, and the detectives saw the ring on her finger and gave them both congratulations. It didn't seem like anyone understood why she wanted to be there, and she wanted to confront both of her parents, but she wanted to do it separately was the fact that she wanted to make sure that they knew by trying to kill her, she had given her the opportunity to find everything that she had ever wanted in her life. That was Benton. He was the thing that she needed the most in her life, and she knew now that as well. It had nothing to do with the amount of money that he owned or the company or who he was. It was the last part partly. He was absolutely everything that she could have ever wanted for a partner in her life. He supported her in ways that nobody ever had before. “Your mother was extremely surprised that you requested to talk to her.” the detective said as he looked at Kelly. He was trying not to show his shock about t

Kelly looked at Denton two days before the day that they were going to get married, and he knew she had something to say. Though she wasn't exactly sure how to say it. It was written all over her face that there was something that she wanted to discuss, but she didn't exactly know-how. He started to get a little frightened because of everything that was going on because of the wedding that maybe she wasn't ready for. Maybe she was going to cancel it. Every bad thing that could possibly happen was going through his mind at the moment. There was really too much tension going on in the room, and he didn't know how to handle it. “Is there something that you want to discuss?” he finally came out and asked and looked at her knowing that she could come out of the left-field with something. And it would throw him completely out of his game. There were so many things that she could just end between them in there, and every bit of happiness that he had fo

Kelly soon found out that planning a wedding in a week was not exactly easy. Though she had a spot picked out in her mind making sure that it was open and that it was available was going to be difficult even though she knew that she could probably use the name and get the space if she needed to. She didn't want to be one of those types of people, and it wasn't in her, so when she found out that the area that she had wanted was already booked, she wasn't all that surprised. It was a beautiful place to have a wedding. Instead, she had put a little bit of money down that he had given her for the other couple to be able to have a few more things. She continued to look for a place, and then she found another one that was absolutely gorgeous, and it was outside. Everything was perfect for the vision that she had in her mind. And it was open. She immediately booked it and then let him know that they had the space available and where it was. He had already hired a com
