Till Dark

Jordan's emotions were running as high as her pain was. She wanted to trust Andy but it was very hard when he had no strong alibi for the purchase of the bomb materials hidden in his closet. Her heart was telling her one thing but her mind was screaming to know the truth. Andy decided to begin again and approach things a different way. She was one tough lady especially to deal with all that had happened to her and to still spit fire at anyone who crossed her path. He decided a change in subject was a better idea. "Please tell me what happened. All I heard up there was that you had been kidnapped and were hurt pretty bad so they brought you here. As soon as they let me leave I raced over her like a madman. Luckily I didn't get a ticket or taken back to jail for reckless endangerment." Jordan smiled her first real smile since climbing into that cab yesterday afternoon. She shuddered at the memory and Andy was by her side in a flash holding her hand trying to comfort her. She wished he had stayed where he was on the other side of the room. Her pulse was racing and she was not sure she could think rationally with him sitting next to her on the tiny hospital bed. It did feel good to have him there and it would feel even better to have him kissing her and wrap those strong arms around her comforting and touching. Jordan stopped fantasizing there and scolded herself for letting this man get to her once again. She wanted Andy to touch her and do several other things to her she realized and was shocked at the revelation of her thoughts and the confusion that went with them. How could she want him when her own husband was lying in a cold grave that she helped to put him in?
