| �Don�t touch me,� I mumbled. Jolene just backed away and went outside on the porch. �I hope you two have fun with Scott.� �You�re welcome to come. I just figured I would let you have some time alone, thought you needed it.� �Lately, Alexander, you have no idea of anything I need. Take Jolene and Scott to the park. I do have some unfinished business to tend to. I have some stories I need to work on and some articles I need to finish.� �Wait, I thought we said you weren�t going back to work?� �No, Alex, you said that. I never agreed. I�m not going to throw my work away. Are you willing to do that for me?� �Yes.� �Bull shit Alex.� I glared at him and turned to walk away. Let him have fun taking Scott out. At this point in time, I couldn�t give a shit. *~* Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene/ I'm begging of you please don't take my man/ Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene/ Please don't take him even though you can/ Jolene, Jolene *~* I drove down the highway, trying to get to the newspaper place in time. I was running way too late and didn�t even know why. And to make matters worse, things were all over in my car. To avoid stepping on something and lose my footing, I reached down and picked it up. I took my eyes off the road for one moment, nothing could happen, right? Wrong. When I looked up, I swerved to hit a truck and that was making a wide turn and ended up crashing into the railing. I hit my head on the wheel and for a moment, just blanked everything out. I took a deep breath and steady my nerves. I slowly opened the door and stepped out. My eyes opened wide as I stared at the front end of my car, or what used to be my front end. I felt my head go light and looked around. I sighed and reached for my purse. I grabbed my cell phone and called Howie. �D here.� �D, it�s Resa.� �Hey. What�s wrong?� �I had an accident. I tired to miss a truck and I hit the rail. My front end is totaled. Can you come pick me up?� �Are you okay?� �I should be fine.� I felt my head and felt something warm. �I have a cut on my forehead, but that�s about it.� �I�ll get AJ�� �No, I don�t want AJ. Just come get me please?� He sighed but said he would. After I hung up, I heard the police coming and prepared myself to explain to them what was going on. Shortly after they came, so did Howie, along with Jolene and AJ. I rolled my eyes and asked the cops to excuse me. I ran over to Howie and gave him a hug. �I thought I told you to leave AJ behind?� �I tried.� I smiled and kissed his cheek. �What the hell were you thinking?� AJ screamed. I stared at him, shocked. My life was hanging in the air, and that�s all he could ask? �What the hell was I thinking about? I don�t know. How about the fact that I�m your girlfriend, the mother of your baby, and you don�t give a shit about me? It seems like since Jolene walked into your life, all you seem to give a fuck about, is her. You don�t even talk to me Alex. You don�t hold me, hell you don�t even kiss me. And this whole turn about came right after Scott was born. So, either you want out, or you just hate me. Take your pick. Cause right now, I�m not going to live like this, where I know anyone perfect woman with her nice body and sexy tattoos and can walk into your life and you lose sight of everything else.� I felt the tears running down my cheeks and just turn and ran. The cops caught me and gave me a lift home. *~* Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene/ I'm begging of you please don't take my man/ Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene/ Please don't take him even though you can/ Jolene, Jolene *~* I sat down with Scott, just playing with him. God, seeing him hurt me. He looked so much like AJ. The cops race me home, and that�s where I was for the last 15 minutes. I heard the front door open and knew AJ had come home. Either to leave or..I don�t know. I set Scott down and just waited till he closed his eyes. I kissed his forehead and looked up to see AJ leaning against the door frame. I looked around me and tried to see what he was looking at. �What are you looking at?� �The most oustanding, beautiful women on this earth.� �Where is she?� He laughed and walked towards me. His arms wrapped themselves around my waist and I leaned against him. �Alex�� �Shh, I want you to know something. Jolene was nothing more then a friend. I never saw her as someone I wanted to be with. I had my perfect woman.� �Yeah, well, she�s perfect. Perfect eyes, that odd violet color, the hair, so long and wavy. And God, her body. She�s so skinny.� �Her eyes are contacts, her real eyes are brown. Her hair is a wig. She shaved it when she was younger and it�s so short. And her body, that�s something she can�t control. The girl eats like a pig, but has the high metabolism. As for you. You have wonderful eyes. They�re not the normal shade of brown. They�re unique, they�re lighter then brown. And no matter what you may think, I love your hair. And I know you think you�re not skinny, but honey, you were pregnant, you had our baby, a baby made out of love. So, you could be 500 pounds, but I would still think you�re the most beautiful person.� I let a tear run down my cheek and felt AJ softly wipe it away. He slowly kissed my lips. A kiss that held love, tenderness, all the things I was missing from him. And when I wrapped my arms around him, the kiss turned passionate, something else I was wanting. He picked me up and carried me back to our room. And soon, all thoughts left my mind, including Jolene. *~* song by Dolly Parton, �Jolene� |
