A Life Plan Without You. (50 page)

“I’ll tell Mick the truth because he’d hate you and will only
be angry with me, besides it could have been worse!”

“You have met Mick haven’t you, his girls are his world!” She
was coming out not looking too bad but angry as hell…

“Stop right now, I will sort Dad out this has nothing to do
with you two, have you seen the size of the heels I had on?” They
both smiled. “Right let’s find out from the stupid girl, why the
hell she started this?” I walked past a worried Sam up the stairs.
Shane’s men had the girl at the top of the steps.

“Why did you hit me? Tell me why shouldn’t I have you arrested
for assault?” She just looked at me she really was a wreck of a
girl, why did she think Sam was interested in her?

“You hit me yesterday and tonight, I’m the one doing the
arresting bitch.” I looked at her in total disbelief, she really
thought I’d thrown the first punch and twice?

“You knocked yourself out yesterday, trying to flatten me.
Tonight you hit me first I have only used restraining moves to
protect myself, and bitch I have sober witnesses, and I haven’t
drank, so who do you think the police will believe the truth from
me or a drunken lie from you? I wish I knew why you thought Sam was
interested in you?” She started to cry.

“He told Andy that he’d found the girl he wants to spend the
rest of his life with, and I had just asked him if he fancied going
out on a date. He was talking about me, he’s taking me to London,
we are stopping in a swanky hotel, and our first time is going to
be special. He’s buying my ring from Tiffany's, he loves me not
you, you stupid bitch.” I looked at Sam as Shane
laughed.

“I was talking to Andy about you Michelle she came up mid
conversation, drunk as a skunk. She must have thought I was talking
about her? Andy was never her friend she was mad then too
apparently, honestly I did not come in to her ever.” Oh Sam I was
about to cry.

“Listen, I’m not going to press charges go home, have a bath
and sleep it off and forget about Sam, he’s spoken for, it's my
ring and trip and Sam's mine too not yours. You need to get help
for the demons that chase you, getting involved with Andy lifestyle
hasn’t done you any favours, and drinking to forget you have
problems is not helping you. Sam is not the same person he was and
is nothing like his brother are we clear?” I smiled at
Shane.

“Let her go, make sure she’s put in a taxi home, she has a
powder problem it’s up her nose Shane, you’re slipping!” I looked
at Sam and kissed Shane. “We’re going home, see you soon Shane.” He
laughed.

“Night cuz see you soon and you’re more forgiving than she
deserves. She won’t get in again. She should go to hospital if she
has drugs in her system!” I nod in agreement.

“No, I’m
not going there they want to keep me in, they can’t, I need to have
sex now I need money for medicine!” I looked at Shane. He dialled
for an ambulance. I do hope they keep her in, she needs help and
soon before she’s found dead in a ditch!

“Go I will sort her out, Colin take a Polaroid drug user, and
she doesn’t get in again!” She was passed out on the top step, I
placed her in recovery position and wanted to hurl as she stank!
Then we headed for mine as the ambulance came for her, Sam held me
close.

“Well
what else is going to happen? I hope she gets help!”

“All this was because of one conversation? I’m sorry I didn’t
jump in to save you, it all happened so quickly, you really are
good at this crap!” His grip tightened around my waist.

“All this is because she is hurting and a mess like Zoë and I
would presume a fair few others are, or am I wrong and she’s not
Andy’s ex? She saw you out and like Zoë she wanted the nicer of the
two of you and made a play for you, not hard when you are nicer
than Andy, what does he do to them to break their spirit? No don’t
tell me, I know he said it was some pretty dark shit that I was too
nice to hear, so I will leave it, but hell he needs help too
Sam.”

“Shit you’re right he said she was reject from the club and he
never slept with her, she failed the medical apparently? He never
brought her home and he has brought all the major ones home? Shit
Michelle you’re way more switched on than I thought, and he’s right
his shit and what I did was too much, but don’t hate me for it, I
haven’t done his screwed up shit I promise you. I never lied to you
about what I did straight sex with the girls I had, and only once
that was bad enough baby, way too many and a bad reason for it too,
but…”

“You haven’t got it in you to be like your brother I know that
Sam, you never stop apologising for the crap you did, Andy seems to
think its fine they will get over it, and you’re so different angel
so bloody different.”

“Are we
alright Michelle, are you leaving me?”

“Me leaving you are you mad? Nope I’m not leaving you before I
get the promised first time anyhow.”

“Erm you’re not having a one off, you are being made love to
and for a damn sight more than once, you are my always and forever
girl, and I love you besides you pack a mean punch and you scare me
when you shout baby.” I laughed.

“I did boxing with Dad and well erm, self-defence classes, at
the church group in Hambleton, for three summers, I never thought
I’d have to use them though, but I didn’t want to flatten her with
a punch, not as drunk as she was. My bloody lip is going to be
massive, tomorrow. Explain London, and the Tiffany thing Sam, I
wasn’t aware I’d said yes yet?” Sam looked at the now massive lip,
and as he kissed it gently, he cried a little, stroking my cheek
and gently kissing it again saying he was sorry
repeatedly.

“I was telling Andy that’s where I wanted to take you next
weekend I was doing the whole down on one knee thing I don’t
suppose it’s happening now?”

“You can still take me to London yes, just not doing the down
on one knee thing. Unless it’s to do the erg thing, you do to me,
when you’re on your knees. Now that you can do over and over.” He
kissed me again and laughed. “Ouch as nice as that is get off, it’s
sore, the lip has sort of put the seal on the night.” We arrived at
mine and went through to the back room Sam put the kettle
on.

“Please put some clothes on if your Dad comes down I’m dead,
nice as you look I wanna be breathing tomorrow!” I had taken the
dress off to wash away the blood. I smiled and slipped a dressing
gown on, washed the dress and put it in the basket for
washing!

“I’m sorry the underwear offends, Sir! I may need it dry
cleaned your girlfriend nearly ruined it.” I went into the kitchen
Sam had done himself a coffee I couldn’t drink through my busted
lip.

“Umm if we had our own house, you could walk around naked for
me. She was never my girlfriend she’s another screwed member of his
lifestyle club, but not his, a nutter from what he said, why the
hell would she get the idea I wanted to marry her? You were the one
I was talking to Andy about, Michelle. You’re the only one I want
to marry.”

“I don’t need to have a degree in rocket science to be able to
work that one out on my own Sam lord I think I’m gonna be fighting
girls off all the time, my boyfriend is a little hot. We need to
talk about the practicalities Sam, every time we get sort of
distracted and well…”

“No, he’s just damn lucky to have an equally hot girlfriend,
like I would go with anyone else, those days are behind me baby,
you are the only one who I want that way, and baby girl soon. We
will talk at the weekend and everything will be clear I promise
baby.” I smiled, oh, how soon Sam?

“We haven’t crossed anything off the list in a while? Added to
it, not crossed off though angel?”

“What do
you want to cross off, as though I need reminding, that’s happening
at the weekend, unless your good to go sooner?”

“No, weekends fine, you better put out stud, because I’m sort
of ready for you to be the one. I think you knew that all along
Samuel Todd?” He laughed as we went through to the front room I
turned on the lamps. We sat on the couch he sat rubbing my very
tired feet.

“Are you stopping Sam, Becky’s back tomorrow, so you can stop
if you want? I may need looking after in the night, my lips really
sore.” He laughed.

“Would be rude not to, I love you so much, that’s what I was
telling Andy, that you and I are perfect together. The one I dream
about. I hate being away from you. I’m sorry you got a fat lip.” I
sat on his lap just staring at him I feel another proposal is in
the offing.

“Say something Michelle, please, after we talk and everything
is explained will you please consider this marrying me thing
seriously?”

“I promise to listen and give you an answer afterwards
alright? I love you too and very much I hate not being with you,
and love spending every minute I can with you. I’m very happy with
everything we do, well apart from the vast amounts of money you
spend, that has to stop, please you don’t have to buy my love you
have it already. Bed, I need sleep my mouths killing me and I’m mad
as hell I didn’t land her a smack to her mouth, so she wakes up
feeling as badly done by as I will.” He inspected the damage again,
his face grimaced, that bad eh?

“You are going to have a fat lip and a bruise. Your dad’s
going to kill me, I said I’d look after you and I didn’t, I’m Sorry
Michelle.” I had his head in my hands.

“I need sleep, and a tonne of it please, this wasn’t your
fault angel.” We went to my room I used the bathroom and washed the
makeup off. Wearing it is a pain, getting it off worse. I brushed
my teeth and went to my room he was naked in my bed, locking the
door. I still had the stockings and stuff on. I sat on Becky’s bed
and undid the elastics, and slipped one leg down. The other one, I
unclipped the elastic and rolled it down my leg, he let out a sigh.
Removing the belt and shoving it in the drawer with the rest of the
collection. I undid the bra and passed the straps through the
dressing gown that went in the washing basket with the stockings I
looked up, Sam was watching and smiling.

“That was my job I liked watching though, my baby is nice to
look at, very nice.” I jumped in bed at the side of him.

“Sleep Sam I’m tired sore and though I‘d love more, I feel
like crap.” He pulled me to him, and just wrapped me in his arms. I
was on the receiving end of one of his hugs and neck kisses.
Sleeping with him was wonderful, so restful feeling him against my
skin.

Awake and dressed for running, I left Sam sleeping, I needed
him badly when I woke this morning, hence the run I was so
frustrated, he made my sex pulse being in bed with him, especially
waking up with that against my leg frigging hard and begging to be
taken, He has to put out soon, I’m so wanting to do it and that’s
the reason for the run, I nearly jumped on him and it because I
needed him. I roughed up Becky’s bed and set off to the school
field. I ran around the field running towards the steps for a
stretch, Adam was dog walking. I waved and carried on running
towards them, his bloody dog ran straight at me. It sent me flying
straight into the steps, causing me to bang my already bruised and
cut lip. It tore open and there was blood everywhere and on top of
that I had a firkin great Alsatian licking me to death, shit not
again sodding hell. I checked my teeth, that was hell of a
thump.

“Shit, Duchess down you stupid girl.” She whimpered as he put
her lead on and he smacked her “Michelle are you okay?” I just
looked at Adam he passed me a hankie.

“Just bloody well perfect, it’s not her fault she likes to
play chase don’t you girl, don’t smack her, she didn’t do it on
purpose Adam, come here baby.” I got up gave her a cuddle as she
licked my very sore lip and I walked home, he followed me
home.

“I will be fine honestly please, carry on walking her she has
too much energy, see you Adam, and don’t worry it looks worse than
it is.” I opened the door and went to the kitchen Mum was busy
making a drink.

“Have we got cotton wool and antiseptic things? Adam’s bloody
dogs just sent me flying into the cricket steps, does it look a
mess, Mum?” She bathed it in salty water.

“You’re going to have a fat lip and bruising.” It was sore all
over again.

“Sam is fast asleep in your bed Michelle.” He was still
sleeping good he won't have seen Adam walk me home.

“I’m sorry we got in late last night, we were at Heaven for a
bit with Shane. We just danced Mum, ask Shane he watches me like a
hawk too.” He promised not to say anything to Dad, as it wouldn’t
look good I was hit on his watch. “Sam won’t let me touch drink.” I
made him a drink and took it to him.

“Sam, wake up.” I kissed his nose and then his mouth, very
carefully my lip was now massive. He wasn’t moving, I traced his
mouth with my finger and I kissed his nose again as he
stirred.

“Morning sleepy head, did you sleep well in my bed then? I’ve
been out for a run and had an accident so when I open the curtain
do not get worried, it looks far worse than it is.” He sat up and
pulled the curtain back quickly, his face was full of
worry.

“Is that all from last night? Missy, it’s worse than I
remember it.” I smiled.

“That’s because it is angel. Adam’s bloody dog sent me flying
into the steps on the field, Mum’s none the wiser to last night’s
fight.” He pulled me to him, looking at the lip, he gently kissed
the corner and apologised again.
