A Morning Scare

“Alyson?… Alyson… Oh God, Alyson!… Wake up Alyson!”

You opened your unbruised eye and saw Buck leaning over you, his hands on your shoulders, trying to shake you awake. Though you had never seen it before, the look of terror on Buck’s face was all to clear to see.

“Yes?” You responded, your voice only slightly louder than a whisper. You watched as the tension drained from Buck’s body.

“Fuck, Alyson. You had me scared.” He responded as he lay back down.

“I was scared too…”

For a moment you both lay there in an awkward silence. You turned on your side to face Buck, briefly wincing in pain as you were reminded of your battered ribs, only find that he was on his side facing away from you. What should you do in a situation like this? Your mother’s words echoed in your mind, you would have to use the only asset you had, your feminine wiles.

You moved forward, until you were pressed right up against his back. You placed a hand on his arm and began to gently stroke it. You then sultrily whispered, “Honey, turn around. I want to see you.”

“So, what are you going to tell them?” Buck replied.

“Tell who?”

“Your parents. How are you going to explain… well… this to your parents?”

“Nothing.”

“What?”

“I’m going to tell them nothing.”

“So you’re just gonna’ leave me and not tell anyone?”

“Who ever said I was leaving?”

Buck turned around and looked you in the eye. You had to admit, one thing he certainly had going for him were his eyes.

“You’re really not going to leave me? After what I did to you?”

“I wouldn’t dream of it.”

“But… why?”

“Because, Buck” you said as you wrapped your arms around his shoulders, “I’m your woman. I made a vow, to be by your side and serve you till **** do us part. And nothing has changed that.”

“But-”

You cut Buck short with a passionate kiss. A warm tingle spread trough your battered nether regions as Buck wrapped his strong arms around you. It was so strange, although you had been married to Buck for almost two whole weeks now, this was the first time he made you feel this way. You felt like you could just melt into his chest, that all your troubles would just disappear, you felt… safe.
