Three days later, Nick arrived home and found Brian in the living
room.
"Hey man," Brian said.
"Hey, what are you doing here," Nick said.
"AJ had to leave so Briz called me," Brian said.
"What about Leighanne?" Nick asked.
"Her mother is at the house with her," Brian said.
"Where's Briz?" Nick asked.
"Upstairs in bed," Brian said. Nick went upstairs and went to the
bedroom and saw Brizee lying on the bed, crying. He went over and laid on the bed and pulled her close.
"Hey baby girl, I'm home," Nick said nuzzling her neck.
"Nicky," Brizee said softly.
"I missed you so much," Nick said.
"I missed you, too, baby," Brizee said.
"Did I miss anything else?" Nick asked. Brizee sat up.
"Brian and I are still married, the divorce never went through,
he and I are stuck, but he said that things shouldn't change because of it, he said I should be with you and he's going to
stay with Leighanne," Brizee said.
"Dammit!" Nick said.
"Something else happened," Brizee said.
"You slept with him, didn't you," Nick said. Brizee got up and went
over to the window.
"No, it was AJ," Brizee said.
"What!" Nick said.
"AJ and I slept together, he wanted to be secret lovers, but I didn't,
he got mad and left," Brizee said.
"I can't believe you!" Nick yelled. Brian came in.
"Nick, I don't want him, I want only you," Brizee said.
"Nick, listen to her," Brian said.
"No, get out, Brizee, we are over!" Nick said. Brizee packed her
stuff. Brian helped her. He loaded her things into her car. He got into his and they drove to Orlando to Brian's house. They
went in. Leighanne came in from the kitchen.
"Hey, what's wrong," Leighanne said.
"Long story, Nick broke up with Brizee," Brian said. Brizee stood
there crying. Brian hugged her.
"What happened," Leighanne said.
"I made a mistake, and I told Nick, he hates me," Brizee said.
"I know you two are still married," Leighanne said.
"Yeah, but I'm not leaving you along while you are pregnant with
my child," Brian said.
"Brian, the baby isn't yours, I just got the call from the doctor,
he did a paternity test, I thought this baby was yours, it added up, but I forgot that I was raped the night before we slept
together," Leighanne said. Leighanne's mother came with Leighanne's bags.
"You two be together and enjoy married life, you both deserve it,"
Leighanne said hugging Brian. She and her mother left.
"Wow," Brizee said.
"I know, I'm free," Brian said.
"Yeah, you are," Brizee said.
"Briz, I never stopped loving you," Brian said.
"Ditto," Brizee said. He pulled her close and kissed her deeply.
He picked her up and carried her upstairs and laid her on the bed and he pulled her clothes off and pulled his off and they
made love.
"I'm yours forever, Brian, don't ever let me go again," Brizee said.
"Never again will I let you go, you are mine, forever and always,"
Brian said.
"Til death do us part," Brizee said.
"Through sickness and in health," Brian said.
"For richer or poorer," Brizee said.
"For as long as we both shall live," Brian said.
"I will love you forever," Brizee said.
"I will love you forever and always," Brian said. They made love again and went
to sleep holding each other.
