Chapter 16: Don't Close Your Eyes

            Enve took a deep breath; “Well shit.” was all she could say. She pulled her powder blue BMW 328i in next to the truck, shutting off the engine, taking slow deep breaths. She had no idea what she was going to say to Derek, and for damn sure “Oh hey Baby, how ya been?” wasn't going to work in this situation. Enve sucked up the courage, stepped out of the car, put her cover on, and walked with a purpose up the sidewalks to her building. She was in no rush, taking the stairs slowly. As Enve got closer to the door she could smell food cooking, she knew it was Anne's duty day, Enve never knew Derek could cook. When they were in California with the Connor's Enve always cooked, Sarah could burn water if you let her. There was a lot about Derek she didn’t know when it really came down to it.

            Enve unlocked the door, stepping inside, removing her cover, tucking it into the leg pocket of her cammies. Music played in the house, Staind, one of Enve's favorite bands; “It's been a While” filled the apartment. Molly trotted up to Enve, looking for love from her mom. Enve scratched the dog behind the ears before she leaned against the kitchen wall, watching the man she was married to cooking, not acknowledging her presence.

            Derek looked over, his eyes briefly meeting Enve's, before he took her in completely. Derek was amazed seeing his wife in uniform, she had worked hard to get her prepregnancy body back, tight waist, hips, muscled torso. Better than she had looked when he first saw her, his breath caught when he read the name tape on her right chest pocket.

            “So that's how you cheated the Navy into letting you live off the base? Saying you're married to me when I'm not even here? Had I thought to look for you with my name it would have been a whole lot shorter of a search. But I thought you were done with me the way you skipped town, didn't even cross my mind.” Derek's voice was full of venom; he had every right to be pissed at Enve.

            Enve started to open her mouth as Derek turned back to the cutting board, slicing vegetables to go into the skillet. She shook her head, walking off to the bedroom to shower and change for her nightly run with Molly.

            Enve understood Derek being pissed, but he wouldn't even let Enve explain why she left. How could she get him to understand? Enve ran her fingers through her hair, washing out the shampoo, washing the stink of the ship off her skin. It was a smell that never really went away but Enve was able to mask under her body wash/perfume.

            Derek grabbed hold of both of Enve's wrists, pinning her to the shower wall. She fought against his grip out of instinct until Derek scorched her lips with his. Enve could feel Derek's arms under her, pinning her against the shower wall as he entered her. Enve's head fell onto his shoulder as she moaned deep, wrapping her legs around his back.

            “You're mine Wife. Don't ever leave me like that again.” Derek growled in Enve's ear as he savaged her with a possessiveness she had never felt in him before. Enve's body bucked against Derek's as she bit into his shoulder to hold in the scream as she came. Derek thrusted deep within his wife, spilling his seed, almost as if he was marking Enve as his.

            Enve uncurled her legs from their grip on Derek's back as he gently set her feet down on the shower floor. Enve quickly finished up her shower, stepping out into the cool bathroom. Derek watched her through the shower glass as she brushed her wet hair straight, pulling it into a ponytail. Enve disappeared out of his sight; Derek slicked the soapy water off his body, killing the water flow, grabbing the towel off the rack outside the shower, strapping it around his waist.

            Enve was tying her running shoes on when Derek stepped out of the bathroom. She looked up at him, looking for any sign of him wanting to talk. Molly sat patiently by Enve's feet, waiting.

            “I've never seen a dog like Molly before, what is she?” Derek dug through his bag for his jogging pants and sneakers, if he was going to talk to his wife, he had to follow her lead, do it on her terms. Derek knew he was game for a run, but for how long and how far he didn’t know.

            “Aussie Blue Heeler. Extremely loyal, obedient, loving. Answers to only one mistress-me.” Enve was short and to the point, standing up to walk out of the bedroom. Derek hurried up getting dressed, finding his wife in the living room pulling an ID card sleeve over her left arm, up onto her bicep. She slid her military ID, a credit card, and a key to the apartment into it, after snapping on Molly's leash.

            Derek opened the door; Enve strode out, Molly at her side. As they hit the bottom stair, Enve turned left, started off at a slow jog, heading towards the beach. Derek dropped in step with his wife, waiting for her to say something first. When they hit the beach, Enve unsnapped Molly, letting her run free. The dog stayed within ten feet of Enve, still wary of Derek.
            Enve tucked Molly’s leash her in pocket, as she took off down the beach. “It won’t be a long run tonight since you’re with me. Don’t know if you can keep up.” Enve grinned in the moonlight at Derek.
            “I’ll keep up well enough. You probably run every day with your command.”Derek was just stating the facts, facts he remembered from when his Dad was still alive. Given the day’s date, Derek’s father would be in Iraq working. His mother would be doing laundry while Derek would be at the kitchen table doing homework, Kyle would be getting ready for bed. Derek lived a life of the all American family before J-day.
            “I run every other day with command, some nights Molly and I run together. Some nights Anne is with us. So tell me about you Reese, I married you, yet I don’t know a damned thing about you. Sometimes I think I married you just so I wouldn’t be alone. Then other times I’m sure I married you because I loved you from when I first saw you when you came to CBC.”
            “A lot of times I think the same about you Reese. I grew up military much like you, my Dad, Tom, is a Marine. He’s stationed out of Twenty Nine Palms, CA. My Mom, Natalie, has always been a stay at home mom; she kept me and Kyle in line. My parents are very much in love, they have been together almost twenty years now. I’ve lived all over the nation, Marine base to Marine base till my Grandpa started ailing and my mom came back to Cali to be closer to her father. My parents geo bach it right now. My mom lives in Thousand Oaks with me and Kyle right now.” Derek couldn’t think of much else to really tell about himself, Enve should have understood the life of a military brat.
            “You already met my Dad, Matthew. He’s career Navy. Grew up on a reservation in Minnesota, vowed to leave, joined the Navy. Met my mom while he was on a flight transfer in Ireland. She was working as an ER doctor in Dublin. One of Dad’s buddies got really drunk while they were waiting for their flight, got injured fucking around. It was love at first sight, letters back and forth till Dad could bring her over. For me personally, my mom is already dead in this time, has been for almost three years. But something happened and she was still alive living in the house near Oxnard, able to care for our son and I. Do you have any idea how heart wrenching that was for me? To be losing our son and my dead mother my attending physician!?! For me to do Brad’s physical for his upcoming deployment knowing younger me will do his post deployment physical and fall in love with him? I’d rather be here living a somewhat normal life with you than chasing crazy Sarah across California, or feeling helpless watching metal load innocent people into monkey wagons to their deaths! I fulfilled my mission to see Bedell and his wife safe. He’s in the DOD system as 2^nd Lt. Bedell, Martin; I’ve seen his medical record at OCS. John’s an A1C now in the Air Force, going through boot in Texas with a cyber tech school in front of him. It’s amazing what you can find on Navy White Pages thru Navy Knowledge Online.”
            Derek stopped running, Molly loping over out of the water to sit by Enve, who had stopped a few feet in front of Derek, turning to look him in the face. Derek’s heart was racing as he walked up to Enve, his eyes locked with hers, his face deathly serious.
            “So what do we do now?”
            “We live Derek, till time ends, we live.”

AN: This is the end of this story(for now at least), I do have parts in the works to continue the story on as John/Cameron’s point of view, Bedell and his wife, Sarah and Charley. But those will be separate pieces written later. I hope you’ve enjoyed this and look forward to writing more stories later.
