The Kill

He settled next to her. "Yeah, that's what I love about here." he ran his hand through his brown hair. he stared at her, memorizing everything. He wanted to be with her.

*Whoa... Where and the hell had that come from?*

"I just sort of feel bad." she admitted.

"What? Why?" he asked.

"I can't remember you." she shrugged. "Usually you'd think that a woman could remember her own husband."

"It's not your fault." he reassured her. "I'm just happy your alive."

"Ya, but I can't remember anything. I can remember how to take care of myself, everything I learned in school, everything a normal person knows. But when it comes to people, events, and everything else. I remember nothing else." She sighed running her hand in her hair. "I can't tell you if we had a honey moon, if we ever kissed. I don't remember anything." She replied her eyes watering up. "I want to remember so bad, but I can't."

"Don't worry about it." He said stroking her cheek gently. She leaned against his touch.

"But I do. I want to remember. I had to have been happy right? But if I was, why does my brain block it all out. Why not just the bad part?"

The poor tortured soul.

"Everything will be alright, Lina you may never remember any of that. And one day it may just come back to you. But until that day relax you have nothing to worry about. Your safe with me. I'm not going to let anyone harm you in any way."

She nodded.

"You just have to trust me." he said.

**Sorry, it's short**

Caralina bit her lip and looked out over the lake again. She didn't know what to think anymore. She leaned her head against his shoulder taking a deep breath. She felt his arm slip around her shoulders and she snuggled closer to him. She looked up at him as he was looking down. She suddenly had the urge to kiss him, so she did. He was her husband, right?


**If they do get physical, then she'll think the kid is his. **

**Great minds DO think alike holy cow **

Sterling felt a surge of pain pound through his heart. He didn't pull away, he cared for her. He would make those idiots pay for what they had done to her. His lips felt like they had been shocked. He kissed her back, might as well right? He liked it... A lot more then he let on.

Caralina pushed into the kiss. She felt comfortable. She wrapped her arms around his neck as his went around her waist. He moved to her neck and she bit her lip as she moved her head to the side.

*oi*

They were both on the couch before he even blinked, had he carried her? Or had they walked the entire way? He was confused but they were making out now. He was sure to be gentle and careful with her. In case she had any bruises or cuts. She made a small sound in her throat.

He pulled back long enough to stare at her. "What's wrong?" he asked. "I'm not going to hurt you honey."

Caralina sat back and smiled sheepishly. "I know, just for some reason I'm scared. IT doesn't make sense. It's like my body is remembering something, but I'm not." She shrugged.

Sterling had no idea what she was talking about. Maybe she needed to be in a crazy house than a lake house in his arms.

"I don't follow." he said.

**I don't get it either **

**You know how you get these gut feelings that something is wrong? Sense she was raped, her body could be giving her that gut feeling. Even though he won't hurt her. Don't fret, I'll fix it.**

"Nothing." She replied running her fingers through her hair. "I'm sorry."

"YOu can tell me." He said stroking her cheek and brushing some hair behind her ear.

"I guess everything is new again, I'm just nervous." She replied looking down at her hands then at him again.

Sterling nodded, understanding. "It's ok." he said.

**blah**

**Lets see what else I can do. I might go and get something to eat soon. I don't know. How much longer will you be able to be on?**

Caralina bit her lower lip and looked up at him. "I-I..." She didn't know waht to say anymore. He kissed her softly and she leaned into it. She wrapped her arms slowly around his neck and he gently wrapped his around her waist. She felt him deepen the kiss and she pushed into it. They seperated so they could catch their breath. She hesitantly kissed his neck, waiting to see what would happen.

**I'll be on for a while**

He was a selfish asshole and he knew it. He picked her up and put her on his lap, he couldn't help himself he was human. He was slowly starting to fall for her, even though he knew she might already belong to someone else. He would do anything to keep her. Right now he just had to live in the moment.

Caralina kept her arms around his neck as she kissed him. He kissed her neck and then her shoulder and she bit her lip, it felt so good, so natural.

"I love you." She whispered softly as she pulled his lips back to hers.

*hehehehehe, ok, so if I was to disappear for about 30 minutes you'd still be on when i got back*

He felt her tug gently on his lower lip with her teeth.

"I love you." she whispered.

He closed his eyes. Damn. What the hell was he suppost to say to THAT? He just held her in his lap for a long period of time. He hadn't been with a woman since his ex-wife and you better believe that she was a bitch and didn't deserve to live. He did care about Lina but he didn't... Couldn't love her.
