Saved (Wanted 2)

I shook my head as my mother and I walked into the barn. Jeff looked up and smiled at us.

“Matthew, sweetheart, come on back with me. Emma just bought a new mop,” my mom said.

Matt just about screamed because he was so happy.

“I want to mop!”

I watched as my mom and Matt walked out of the barn toward the house. Taking a deep breath, and turned to face Jeff. Taking me by surprise, he grabbed me and kissed me so passionately that my legs almost went out from under me.

“Arianna, I love you so much. ”

I smiled as I looked up into his beautiful green eyes. “I love you, too, Jefferson…so very much. ”

As he kissed me again, I almost wanted talk him into making love to me right here and now, so I could lose myself in his love.

Knowing I had to do this though, I pulled away just a little.

“Um, Jeff, I really need to talk to you,” I said, looking up at him.

He smiled as he took my hand and walked me over to a hay bale.

“Alright, baby…. talk away. ”

“Well, um…. I’m not even sure how to tell you this, but. ”

His cell phone rang. He pulled it out of his pocket, looking at the display, he frowned. He shoved it back into his pocket and looked at me.

“Don’t stop, Ari. Keep going. ”

“Okay, well, when I went to the doctor on Monday, I um, I found out. ”

“You got the results back already? Ari, why didn’t you tell me, baby? What did they say? Are you a carrier of the gene?”

Wait…what? Oh god. My head was spinning.

“No, I won’t get the results back until after another week or so. ”

“Shit, Ari, I thought you had been holding this in for the last two days. ”

I let out a small laugh. “Ah, no, but I did find out something else. ”

Just then, his phone rang again. Of all the fuck-ass times, why is he getting a signal now? He looked at it and then back at me.

“Give me just two seconds. ”

I sat there, stunned. It had to be Rebecca.

“Hey, Rebecca. I thought I asked you to not…. what? Are you okay?”

I’m going to hell for the thought that just crossed my mind.

“Yeah, I’ll leave right now.

Jeff jumped up and started to walk away from me.

What the fuck?

“Jeff!” I yelled.
