Chapter 30

Gary's POV

The coldness of the metal strokes in a circular motion around my navel. Suddenly things start to get darker again feeling my vision become weaker until i feel a sharp ripping pain in my stomach. My eyes widen with the pain seeing the knife begin to slash at my bare flesh. Trying to scream out my voice is muffled by a hand which is pushing against my mouth and jaw. Continuing their actions the blade starts to create some sort of pattern into my skin almost like they've carving some meat. Tears stream down my face feeling my eye lids atomically close and numbness fills my body, as i fall into a deep painless sleep.

Gary's dream. 

"Chloe? Babe come on... we've got to leave already." I call gripping to the banister whilst my other hand rests in my pocket. Tonight me and Chloe are going out to celebrate our anniversary. I can't believe it's been exactly a year today since we went on our first date... i can still remember it like it was just yesterday. Who would of thought one year on things would of progressed so much? We're now engaged with a baby on the way. All of a sudden a loud thud sounds upstairs pulling me from my daydream. "Chloe?! Chloe are you ok?" Quickly i run upstairs knocking onto the locked bathroom door. There's no answer only the sound of heavy breathing. "Open this door Chloe?!" Not wanting to wait around any longer i decide to shoulder the door to get it open. After a hard shoulder and a few kicks the door's lock finally breaks giving me entry to the bathroom. As soon as i take a look inside i'm greeted by a puddle of blood. Almost instant my heart stops beating by the scenery set in front of me. A figure clawing against the sink catches my attention. "Chloe! Oh babe..." Coiling an arm around her she weakly presses her face to my chest sobbing quietly. 
"T...t...the...b...b...baby..." She cries falling in and out of consciousness. Immediately i pull away from the hug to look towards the visible bump under her blood stained dress. 

A lump forms in my throat. Surly not... she can't... she can't lose the baby... we've only got a week to go! "Chloe... listen to me... did your waters break at all?" Trying to focus her eyes on mine she fails, as her pupils roll to the back of her head. "Chloe? This is important! Come on baby... i'm here... i'm not going anywhere i promise you." I try to calm her down by kissing her knuckles whilst taking a tight grip to her hand. 
"Y....y...y...es..." Chloe mutters still with her eye lids weakly closed. "Aaarhhh....p....p..pain..." 
"Right...babe listen to me... listen to me?" I hold her face within my palms trying to act calm myself for the sake of our baby. "You're going into labour... we need to get you to the hospital as fast as we possibly can, but we can go unless you keep talking to me... can you do that?" A nod is all i receive in response to my question. "Keep doing deep breathes babe... in..." I demonstrate the deep breathes to her which she soon begins to copy. "...and out." Carefully i lift Chloe into my arms whilst she continues to practise the breathing technique. 
"AAaahhhh Gary!!! It hurts...." Digging her nails into my back she cries out from the pain. 
"I know babe... but it's going to be ok... just keep breathing..." 

After we've collected the hospital bag which has been left sat in the hallway for the past two weeks we head to the hospital speeding over the limit. Chloe's eyes begin to slowly close again and the tight grip on my hand weakens. "Babe? Come on stay with me... tell me about what you've bought our little one." Panic strikes through my body seeing her like this. Many times have i witness women giving birth and going into labour, but having someone so special to you go through it changes things. It brings fear and worry pushing away the excitement. 
"B...baby...gro...grows...one...one...with...i....i...love...D..D...AARRRHHH! Oooooh...." Squeezing my hand harder i can't tell whether it's now my hand bleeding or if it's Chloe's blood. I park the car outside the hospital's entrance yelling for some help. Within a few seconds Doctors in white coats come rushing over to our car. 
"We're here babe... we're going to do this together..." Nervously i standby watching the doctors carefully help her into a nearby wheelchair. The colour's drained from her face into a more ghost like look. Taking a few deep breathes myself seeing Chloe like this makes me feel faint. As soon as Chloe's secured in the wheel chair they begin to quickly push her inside with me shortly following them. 

One doctor sits me down inside the small white room onto the single chair which is placed beside the bed which Chloe is helped onto. "Mr Barlow?" Looking over his shoulder my eyes are glued on Chloe who takes deep breathes on the gas and air. "Mr Barlow are you listening?!" 
"Huh? What?" Shaking my head a little unable to fully hear the doctor over Chloe's screams. 
"Miss Matthew's has lost a huge amount of blood through this labour..." He sighs deeply pinching the bridge of his nose whilst pushing up his glasses. "W...We're...sorry..." 
"Sorry? What for?" I frown my eyebrows at him still being deafened by the screams and cries which are still going on inches from me. I shouldn't be sat here talking i should be over there holding her hand.
"Miss Matthew's...she gave birth... to a girl... weighing 7lbs 8oz... healthy little girl... but unfortunately... Miss Matthew's...she...she didn't survive the birth." Confusion fills my face, and the cries come to a sudden stop. Chloe's no longer on the bed. 
"B...but... she... she hasn't even given birth yet?! How could she..." I stare at the now empty bed even the blood has vanished. "Where is she? Which room have you moved her to?!" 
"Mr Barlow... we're sorry for your loss... a nurse will bring your daughter to you shortly... you can take all the time you need." 
"N...N....No... you're lying. She was just there! She was laid on that bed a few seconds ago in labour! Where is she?!" Tears flood down my cheeks feeling heartbroken yet confused about what just happened within a blink of an eye. 
"Mr Barlow...Dr Barlow...Dr Barlow.." The room fills with darkness followed by a distant cry of a baby. "Dr Barlow... wake up... are you ok?" My breathing increases followed by a huge amount of pain in my stomach. 

"ARRRGHH!" Loudly i call out now able to scream my eyes swing open to find myself staring up at the blackened sky. "FUCK!" I bite my lip whilst looking down the lower part of my body which is dripping with blood. It was a dream. All a dream. The two men who had done this to me seemed to have vanished leaving me alone bleeding to death.
"Dr Barlow... are you ok?" A woman kneels beside me with a baby cradled under her arm. Feeling afraid i try to shuffle away from her contact when a hand is placed on my wound. "It's ok... i'm not going to hurt you... i'm here to help you... i can get you home... just trust me?" The middle aged woman smiles down at my terrified face. Is this just another trick?

Chapter 29

Chloe's POV

"CHLOE!!" A voice calls in the distant. Carefully i lift myself up again resting my elbows onto the tops of my knees. I must of dozed off for a little while whilst sitting on the beach. The tide has also come in which means my dress is pretty much soaked to my skin. "Chloe! Fucking hell don't you ever do that again!" Mark appears beside me coiling an arm tightly around my shoulder. Seeing the pale white look on his face it almost glows in the darkness.
"S...sorry...i...i only came for a walk... and i guess i fell asleep... what time is it? Is there any news yet?" Shivering slightly from the wetness of my dress and the cool air i pull away from Mark's embrace. He doesn't reply at first instead he helps me to my feet- sort of. "Mark? What is it?" Refusing to stand i study his face which clearly shows there's something not right. "Have they found him?!"
"...No..." Quietly Mark speaks still trying his best to get me off the sand.
"What is it then? Tell me what's going on."
"Chloe... please just stand up... we've got to go."
"No we don't! We don't need to go anywhere! Tell me what the hell is going on with you? What have you done?!" Raising my voice now my stomach starts to do flips with nerves and i'm pretty sure even the baby has started to sense it.
"We've got to leave..."
"No. No chance. Even if i want to sit on the beach all night i can do. If you're tired you can go back to the apartment, but i'm not moving. Not yet anyway."
Softly Mark sighs bowing his head at me. "I...I can't... I can't go back to the apartment... the taxi's waiting... we've got to go Chloe..."
"W...what? Taxi? Why?" Is he saying what i think he's saying? Surly not. Please.
"The apartment... the amount of days Gary booked it for has expired...i've go no cash on me, so we can't stay another few nights... and we can't use Gary's cards because they're his...and seeing as he's...not...erm..."

Tears build in my eyes and my body weakens. I can't leave... what about Gary? He's still out here somewhere. "Pl...please... we can't... we can't please Mark..." Unable to hold it back any longer, tears begin to roll down my cheeks whilst looking like a lost little girl.
"I'm sorry Chloe... we have no choice, but the police have our numbers when they find him... Knowing Gary he's probably staying in a five star hotel by now..." Gently he strokes my cheek brushing away my tears whilst giving me a soft friendly smile. Just thinking about Gary makes my heart ache. I need him. Me and our baby need him.
"Or lying in a street...unconscious..."
"Chl-" The sound of a car horn interrupts us making me feel worse. "Erm..."
"I...i know... i know..."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Staring out of the taxi window i watch the waves continue to crash against the rocks with the moonlight reflecting onto it. Mark reaches for my hand giving it a slight squeeze. I can't even look at him, making no noise at all i silently cry to myself. The only thing i have of Gary's now other than his belongings back at home is our baby. Softly i stroke my stomach allowing my tears to drip onto my all ready wet dress, as hard as this is going to be i've got to think about this baby. Being the way i am now isn't going to help health wise to him or her. I can't lose it as well as Gary. That would destroy the last part of my life i have left. Mark wraps a fragile arm around my shoulder. Rising my head gradually pain strikes in his eyes too. I'm not the only one who's grieving, after everything which has happened between Mark and Gary they still care about one another almost like brothers. "Everything going to be ok... i'm going to make sure of that..." Feeling exhausted my head nuzzles against Mark's chest feeling calmer, and safe which i haven't felt in a while. Right now i just need the comfort and support from close friends and family. "We're going to find him... he has a beautiful family to take care of... nothing's going to stop that..." Quietly Mark whispers pressing his nose against my hair. "Nothing..."

Trailing my eyes up to his, then down to my stomach which his hand is softly resting against. I carefully place my hand over his just how i imagined me and Gary would do. We're going to make the best parents to our child. There's a small gap between mine and Mark's faces to be honest after all the years of knowing him, we've never been this close before. It just feels so right...so relaxing and so...perfect. Mark moves his lips closer to mine hovering over them. With a blink of an eye i close them firmly, as i feel our lips make contact for the very first time.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gary's POV

Using a leaf i clean the palm of my hand from my moment of pleasure. It was so wrong yet so right... just what i needed to release all of my stress since ending up on here. All of a sudden the bush opposite me starts to violently shake almost like someones inside it. Oh shit... did they just watch what i did? Again it starts to shake this time harder and voices appear. "Where is he?! Where's the little white man gone?!" Angrily a voice shouts. Backing my head down a little i see a few heads peer around the bushes using the sharp end of their sticks to poke the bushes. This doesn't look good. Taking the only chance i have i climb to my feet, as i decide to dart towards the entrance of where i got in causing the bushes to rustle behind me. "THERE! THERE HE IS!" Running faster now not even bothering about losing the front of my leaves i run through the bushes whilst jumping over the broken down branches partly naked. That's when it hits me, as soon as i escape the green area of the island i end up coming to the surface which is surrounded by the sea. There's no where else i can go and if i risk swimming in the sea i could possible get eaten by sharks or other sea life animals. A sharp pain hits into my right leg breaking through the skin.
"AAAH FUCK!" Loudly i call gripping tightly to my leg feeling it become numb. One of them fired a dart into the back of my leg. God knows what's on it, poison for all i know.
"STOP RIGHT THERE!" The same men who chased me just minutes ago appear out from behind the palm trees. "You try and espace? You lazy boy! Lazy boys need to be taught to live life like a worker..." Flickering my eyes from the numbness working up my body i notice a sharp metal blade placed in between the smaller males fingers.
"I...I wasn't slacking....h...honest..." My heart rate increases and my breathing becomes heavier yet slower. What's happening to me?! Closing my eyes for a brief second hands begin to claw at my skin- animal like. "Get off! Get off me!" Panting heavier my eyes open in frustration to find the two men above me. Both of my wrists are clenched tightly together by one of the men. Carefully the smaller man strokes the blade against my bare stomach causing my eyes to almost fall out of my head. "N...n...no please...please don't... i...i've got to...to get back...to...to my girlfriend...we...we..we're having a baby...please?!" Nerves take over me which causes my words to come out in short stutters. What are they going to do?

Chapter 28

Gary's POV

"Get him up! Get him up!" A much more muscular man approaches me pointing a long stick into my direction.
"Easy mate... easy." The two men lift me to my feet, as i stand up i notice that there's not much point of having leaves around me seeing as they barely cover my private parts. "Erm...do you have longer leaves? Let me at least wear my briefs... this is embarrassing." I try tugging my hands free from the rope, but it's no use. All of a sudden i feel myself being forcefully pushed causing me to fall face first into the sand. "Ooomf." Loudly i cough tasting a heap of sand enter my mouth.
"You do as we say... and small white man doesn't get hurt." He must be the leader of the bunch or something. Great i'm going to be bossed around wearing nothing, but bloody leaves and i'm pretty sure they still have insects on damn things are itching. Propping myself up onto my knees i look up at him spitting away the gritty sand from my lips.

"Come... we need your help." The crowd starts to form into a line picking up small rocks and leaves from the area. Thankfully they let my hands loose, the rope was so tight that it almost broke my skin. Watching what everyone else is doing i search around for some rocks keeping my other hand at the front of my leaves. God i need to get home. Chloe will be going out of her mind and the baby... oh god the baby. My mind drifts off for a moment or two thinking about her. Missing her. It's almost like i can feel Chloe curled up against me our legs wrapped over one anothers as we lay together in bed.
"Excuse me!" A squeaky women voice speaks causing my eyes to flicker open. Getting lost in my thoughts caused me to be pressed up against her. Good thing i didn't get too much into my thoughts...now that could of been dangerous seeing as i have no protection to hide it.
"S...so...sorry." I swallow hard holding my front against hiding my semi hard erection. I really need to get somewhere to hide away this is getting rather uncomfortable.

"Come! This way!" People begin to march following the one who's in charge. He has a lot more leaves on him and his body is almost covered in paint or whatever that stuff is. The thoughts come back of Chloe as we start to walk. Visions of her in stockings wearing nothing else but black laced knickers and matching bra, as she approaches me laying helpless cuffed to the four poster bed. She grips a long black stick in between her teeth breathing against my neck. We walk around the corner through some bushes this time higher, taller than me even. This is perfect i can hide behind them all i have to do is some how sneak away without getting caught. Looking around the area i notice i'm fourth from the back of around twenty odd people. I pick up a stone throwing it as deep as possible into the bushes. "Oh... i better get that..." Sliding through the people i escape the line. Making sure they carry on walking i look over my shoulder whilst disappearing into the bushes.

Fifty odd thorn bushes later i finally reach the centre of the island. It's getting dark, so i don't have much time. Why am i even doing this? I should be finding a way to off this bastard place inside of pleasuring myself. I'm sitting in the middle of an island partly naked stuck with a bunch of weirdos if only Chloe was here. My beautiful...sexy... gorgeous girlfriend. What i wouldn't give to have her in my arms again. Trailing my fingers up her mini skirt brushing my fingers against her exposed breasts. My fist forms around my length whilst finding a comfortable position. Lolling my head backwards i firmly close my eyes with my lips parted allowing soft moans and groans to leave them. She pushes me onto the bed sinking deep into the pillows with the back of my head, as i watch her reach into the bedside drawer. I bring my hand in contact with her swinging back crashing it against her backside. Giving her a nettle type sting sensation. A small lopsided grin shines at me whilst pulling out a set of hand cuffs from the drawer. "Relax." Sweetly she smiles tugging her bottom lip in between her teeth. Doing as she says i close my eyes raising my hands as she snaps the cuffs onto each one of my wrists and onto the posts of the bed. Again doing the same with my legs she snaps another pair of cuffs to the post. Now i'm left naked and cuffed. Reaching into the drawer again she pulls out a whip stroking it against my stomach ever so lightly enough to make me moan and squirm. Slivering her hand to my erection she grips it tightly wrapping her fingers around it before pumping in a slow motion. My back forms into a fine arch as she increases speed. "Shit... oooh... yes..." I increase the speed i have on myself thrusting my fist faster against myself. Teasingly she brings her tongue into action as she slides it against me making me shiver with pleasure. I rock my head side to side feeling myself enter her mouth. Starting off slow her hand remains gripped to me. There's nothing for me to grip onto other than the sand which i punch my free hand into moving my hand along myself even faster getting completely lost in my thoughts it feels real. I believe it's real. "Ch...Chloe...s...stop teasing...." Slightly i croak believing she's actually here pleasuring me. "So demanding...Dr..." She chuckles removing her knickers with one tug on the lace they drop to her ankles, as she straddles my naked body. With one bend of her knees she allows me to sink deep inside of her. "Ohhhh god yes... yes... i've missed you Chloe... i've missed being this close to you..." My fist works as fast as it possibly can against me feeling close to my limit. Unable to still touch her body i pull at the cuffs trying to break free, but it's no use they're solid metal. Forming a pattern she begins to increase her speed pulling at my chest hair and running her tongue along my jawline tracing my stubble line all the way up to my ear where she gives it a sharp tug. "God...yes...yes...oh....oh yes... Ch...Ch...Chloe...i..." The cold air swirls around my naked body rustling my leaves almost sounding like my vision of the cuffs i'm wearing in my thought. "Give it to me... i want to feel you..." Chloe whispers against my ear my whole body begins to tremble with pleasure until i can't keep it in any longer. "Come Dr...." That's all i need spewing my load which forces my eyes to snap open. I fall backwards into the sand panting heavily for my breath back. That was good. That was too good.

Chapter 27

"Come on Chloe... lets get you back to the apartment you need rest." Mark wraps his arms around me helping me to my feet. My eyes catch another glance of the dead body in front of me then it hits me. Some poor woman maybe with children is going to have to go through the same torture as me, but this time her life will officially come crashing down seeing her boyfriend or husband laying here. I sob against Mark's chest with the thought holding him tightly almost suffocating him. "Chloe? We need to get out of here... it's no good for you..." I nod against his chest. He's right this is just making me worse all i need to focus on now is getting Gary  back nothing else matters.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We arrive back at the apartment it still feels like any second Gary's going to walk out of that bathroom moaning about the shower going too hot or moaning about my stacks of make up covering the sink leaving no room for his aftershaves. "Would you like a drink?" Mark asks whilst sitting me down on the sofa.
"Please..." Quietly i answer surprised at how weak i'm starting to feel which isn't any good what so ever for the baby.
"I'll get you some fresh clothes whilst the kettle is boiling." Mark leaves the room walking to the bedroom leaving me alone for the first time. What if someone's found him, but he's hit his head and doesn't remember who he is? Or what if someone's abducted him? But how did his wallet end up with that guy? I need to go out and look for him sitting around here feeling sorry for myself isn't doing any good! With that thought i quickly run to the front door whilst Mark's still in the bedroom i quickly close the front door heading towards the beach.

It's only a short walk to the beach and all the way down here i've been getting stared at like i'm some sort of mental patient. The sun starts to fade into the golden cloudy sky getting soon replaced by the moon bringing the darkness with it. Once i reach the sand i take my shoes off heading towards the sea which continues to crash against the jaggered rocks. For a brief moment i drop my head backwards closing my eyes just inhaling the salty air in which relaxes me for the first time. Everything was so perfect we were both happy and now look at us. Walking even closer i allow the sea to swirl around my feet the temperature has dropped, but it's not cold it's mild. Taking a few steps back again i sit on the dry sand in front of the sea watching it make different heights of waves. Somewhere...he's out there...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gary's POV

Something wet hits against my ear causing me to wake up. "Huh?" I panic seeing i'm laying flat on a beach with little ripples of the sea washing against my face. Where am i? Nervously i look around feeling extremely light headed. I haven't seen this beach before and it certainly doesn't look safe. My shoes seem to have vanished and so have the people. Deciding to explore where exactly i am i remove my socks and roll up my trousers preventing them from getting anymore wet. How long have i been laying here for? Was i knocked out? It's pitch black. Nothing makes sense! "Chloe?" Softly i whisper walking through a few high nettled bushes which sneak through my shirt giving me a shocking stinging sensation. These aren't ordinary nettles like you find back home there's thorns are the size of my head! You could easily be killed if you're not careful. Rustling sounds from a bush opposite me and voices follow cause me to freeze. "H...Hello?" Moving a little more closer to the bush it starts to shake and the voices turn into shouts. Oh no. Quickly i run trying to find the place i was before hearing footsteps follow me. I reach the edge of the island. There's no where else to go! I'm surrounded by sea on a tiny island. Slowly i turn around noticing a few men dressed in nothing, but a few leaves covering their private areas holding sticks with pointy rocks on the end. This is something you'd see in a film or documentary!

"L...Listen fellers... i don't want any trouble...i...i'm trying to find my way back... look i'm a doctor..." I reach into my back pocket searching for my wallet. Shit, where's that gone? It soon didn't matter anymore, as i feel myself being forced to the ground. The two guys speak in a completely different language which i can't even understand or explain. They tightly wrap some rope around my hands which are pressed against my back. "Please... i can't be doing with these games...i need to get home!" They start to walk me back through the bushes, as we get closer there's a fire in the middle of an open empty area. One of them does this loud chanting noise and all of sudden more people walk out with white paint on their faces dressed in leaves again. Where the hell am i?! Is this some sort of joke? A woman walks over to me inspecting me whilst another brings a stack of leaves. None of them are smiling they just have a blank expression on their faces. It's like they've never seen a guy like me before nor the colour of my skin. The woman who continues to inspect me starts to unbutton my shirt. "Hey! Excuse me!" I try and back away crashing into the two guys who brought me here. She shakes her head and removes the belt on my trousers. "Oi! I'm not wearing bloody leaves! I want my own clothes thank you very much!"

More men from the crowd come walking over to me pinning me to the ground allowing her to finish her job. Trying my best i kick my legs out whilst she removes every item of my clothing. This is embarrassing they all study my now naked body laying helplessly on the floor locked down by two other men. Another two women join her forming the leaves around my genital area making me feel a little more comfortable that it's now covered and away from people's view. One of them bends next to me whispering in my ear. "Do as we say and you won't get hurt... yet..." What the fuck have i let myself into?

Chapter 26

"W...when...?" Mumbling against my palms. A rush of emotions shower over me. I refuse to believe he's dead. Not Gary. It can't be.
"When...When what?" A hand coils around my waist trying to comfort me, but i end up shrugging it off.
"When can we go see him?"
Mark looks at me a little surprised. "Erm...4? We've got a couple of hours yet." Not waiting around any longer i put my flip flops back on reaching for my bag. "Chloe? Where are you going?"
"I'm not sitting here for another 2 hours to see if my boyfriend is dead! It can't be him Mark it just can't be."
"Chloe, wait!" Mark comes running after me once i leave the apartment. "You're not going on your own... please let me be there with you? I know him too..." Thinking for a few seconds i agree to let Mark come too he's right he does know Gary even if they don't get along it's only fair. Plus i need someone for comfort which i wont admit.

We arrive at the hospital after a short drive in a taxi. Once Mark's paid the fare we head instead causing my stomach to do all kinds of flips and twirls. It's a 50/50 chance i could be coming out of here with my heart completely crushed and torn apart. Or there could be the hope that he's still somewhere out there trying to find his way back. Mark speaks to the receptionist clearing a few things up giving me time to breathe. It hasn't sunk in. I could be minutes away from seeing my boyfriend laying stone dead watching my life crumble around me. It isn't real it's just a dream any second i'll wake up in Gary's arms back home in our bed just the three of us. Gently i stroke my stomach as Mark and one of the nurses approach me. "Hello Miss Matthews i'm Mrs Hevness... i'll take you to the morgue where another Doctor will take it from there. You can take all the time you need there will also be a councillor on hand if you need her... do you have any questions?" My world spins around my like i'm on a never ending roller coaster.
"N...no... i... i just want to get it over with." Speaking in whispers i feel my legs tremble with the thought of what i'm about to do.

The nurse guides me and Mark down a few corridor's. It feels like i'm about to go to jail with Mark tightly holding to my arm like a police officer. "Now Miss Matthews when we found the body there was a wallet with him. Once we identified the body... it fit Mr Owen's description. A brown leather wallet empty apart from a doctor's card. Belonging to Mr Barlow." Tears spring to my eyes. I'm going to be sick. Gary's wallet was with the dead body. No. She's lying. Walking back out of the office she presents me with a plastic bag containing the wallet and card. "Is this your boyfriend?" She shows me the photo on the doctor's card. A photo of Gary in his white uniform with a slight smile on his face.
"Oh god." Mark cups his mouth with his hands looking at the card. "C...Chloe..."
Unable to hold back the tears much longer they come flooding out down my cheeks dripping onto Gary's face on the plastic card. He looks so perfect. What i wouldn't give to see him one last time. To hold him. To never let him out of my sight again. "I....I...need....need to...s...see... him..." My eyes look at the windowless door in front of me. "I NEED TO SEE HIM!" I scream feeling my entire body shake. Mark grabs hold of me causing me to kick out. "Get off! Get off me!!" Accidentally kicking my legs out i kick Mark in the shin making him release his grip on me so i'm free. Quickly i push the door open running instead to be stopped in my tracks when i see a white sheet covering something in front of me. A body.

"Chloe!" Mark follows me also freezing once he sees the covered body. "N...no... oh...god...no... is that...?" A doctor appears from one of the office doors. "You must be Miss Matthews? I'm Dr. Bashir. Would you like time before you identify the body? There's room in the office where you can calm down and relax with a coffee."
Looking at him annoyed and frustrated emotions hit me. "Have a cup of coffee??! Relax?! This isn't a fucking hotel! This is my life! This could be the man of my dreams lying lifeless in front of me and you tell me to go and relax with a coffee?!"
The doctor looks at me a little surprised. "Sorry Miss... take your time..." He stands the opposite side of the body facing me and Mark. Taking a few deep breathes i try my best to absorb it all.

After 10 minutes i finally agree to identify the body. Dr Bashir slowly rolls up the thin white sheet causing me to take a tight grip to Mark's shaking hand. My eyelids glue shut almost like i'm on a scary fair ground ride. Slowly i count to ten before i flicker open my eyes. In front of me lays a middle aged male. Blond hair. Around 5ft 8, and his eyes are closed. "G....G....Gary?" Words fall from my lips inaudible. "N....n....no....no...NO! THAT'S NOT GARY!! IT'S NOT!" The body laying in front of me isn't Gary. The body in front of me doesn't have stubble and Gary was a lot more muscular on his arms and torso. Mark stands in shock his eyes look relieved but still shocked. Tears continue to fall from my eyes as i collapse to my knees cradling myself as i cry. He's still alive out there.

chapter 25

Two days later i'm allowed to finally come out of hospital. Mark hasn't left my side he's too much of a worrier sometimes. Surprisingly the baby is fine due to the falls on the boat it managed to move him or her near my ribs which they luckily protected the baby. I was asked if i wanted an early scan of the baby, but i refused i want Gary to be there for when i have the scans and until he's found i'm not going to have any scans taken. "Chloe are you sure you want to stay here tonight?" Mark follows me up the path back to the apartment.
"Yes." Answering bluntly i unlock the door, as soon as i enter the room my nostrils are filled with the smell of Gary's over  used after shave. He use to drown himself in that stuff. Taking a deep breath closing my eyes i force my legs to walk over to the sofa.
"Would you like a drink?"
My mind drifts off for a minute thinking of the times Gary was here with me. It doesn't feel real not to have my head resting against some part of him. His hand raking through my hair whilst he whispers sweet things into my ear until i fall to sleep to be carried to bed by him. "No thanks Gaz." The state i'm in i don't realise what i'm saying until later on in the day when it hits me.
"Oh...er...o..ok." Mark walks over to the empty space beside me on the sofa. "Do you need anything else? How's the baby? Did you know you was pregnant?"
"Questions...questions..." Muttering under my breath i pinch the bridge of my nose sucking in a deep breath. "I knew the night before... he knew...before he... before...he..." Replying with a shaky breath my head falls against Mark's chest where the tears fall against his shirt. "I....I...can't....I can't...do...t...h...is" Gently Mark wraps his arms around me whilst my head buries even more against him. The smell of Gary's aftershave from air makes Mark smell like him. It almost fells like Gary's holding me. Relaxing now with the mixed up thoughts in my head i'm convinced i'm in Gary's arms.
"Everything's going to be ok..." Mark's accent isn't as strong as Gary's, but i feel safe... i feel sort of happy which i haven't felt in days.

I must of fallen asleep for a little while, because the next thing i know is i feel movement. Opening my eyes i see Mark reaching in my bag for my ringing mobile. "Hello, Chloe Matthews phone." He speaks with a whispering voice leaving his free arm wrapped around me. "I'm her friend. Mark Owen i was the one who collected her from hospital this evening." Mark scrunches his face up a little trying to make out what the person on the other end of the line is saying. I guess they're speaking in Spanish. "Erm... i wasn't on board at the time i flew in once i heard about Chloe in the hospital. He's about... 5ft 8... blond hair... green eyes...erm... no he doesn't wear jewellery... dresses smart... no, no middle names just Gary Barlow he's a doctor if he has his wallet on him he'll have his doctor card in there." Instantly my head lifts by the use of Gary's name. Have they found him? Suddenly i'm wide awake now staring at Mark. "O...oh...you have? I...I understand... y...yeah....sure...i'll...i'll tell... her.. thank you... 4 o'clock? Right... ok...b...bye." He hangs up stroking his forehead anxiously.
Feeling my heart race in my chest i'm in shock. They've fount!! They've found Gary! Tears springs to my eyes, as excitement takes over shining a smile over to Mark who cradles his head.
"Have they??"

Mark doesn't reply his eyes are closed firmly as he steadily breathes. "Mark? Have they really found him?" I feel like a child on Christmas morning. Why doesn't Mark seem happy about it? Without saying a word he nods slightly. "Oh g....gosh... they've.....they've...actually found him??!" Seeing Mark's nod causes tears to come flooding down my cheeks. "When can we see him?? Has he said anything? Is he ok?" Not releasing all the questions i'm asking i grab my bag along with my shoes. "Is he at the hospital i was at?? Well come on Mark let's go i'm not waiting another 2 hours to see him!" Pulling Mark's arm to get him from the sofa he feels much heavier and it feels like his body is shaking. "Mark?!"
"He's not at the hospital." Mark mumbles, as he slowly lifts his head. Looking into his eyes they seem to have saddened.
"Well where is he? But he's been found, right?" I'm confused. What's happening?
"Th...they think they've found him...b...but that wasn't the hospital...Chloe." He closes his eyes taking in a deep breath again.
"Mark what's going on?! Where is he?!" Panicking a little my body begins to tremble this doesn't look good it's going to be bad news i can feel it.
"C...Chloe... that...that was the m...morgue....  they think... they think they've found Gary... you...you need to identify... his body...i'm...so...so sorry..." For the first time i've seen in ages tears roll down Mark's face. Hearing the words leave his mouth my legs feel weak. Uncontrollable my legs hit the floor as i fall to my knees. No. This can't be. My world comes crashing down at my feet.

Chapter 24

We arrive at the nearest hospital i must of collapsed in the boat, because the next thing i know is i'm laid up right in bed. "G...Gaz?" My eyes anxiously search the room. I'm alone apart from a monitor which is wired to me bleeping every few seconds. "Hello??" I call hoping that a nurse or doctor will come in, so i can ask about Gary. Maybe Gary's somewhere in the hospital? I've got to go find him. With the hope and thought of Gary being somewhere in the building i go to look for him. The hospital is slightly crowded i recognise some of the people from the cruise a couple of them are sitting in the waiting area looking at me with faces full of worry. All i'm wearing is a thin hospital gown which the icy breeze from the air conditioner sneaks through. Bare footed i stagger over to the reception desk gritting my teeth from the agony in my ankle. "Miss Matthews what are you doing out here?" The elderly lady looks at me surprised standing from her chair.
"I...I'm looking for...for my boyfriend...Gary?"
She shakes her head taking me by the arm gently almost like i'm a lost child on their first day of school. "You shouldn't be looking for anyone you need rest especially that ankle of yours!" She takes me back to my room opening the door for me. Before setting foot back into the room something catches my eye...or should i say someone.
"Gary?!" My entire body freeze watching 3 doctors come rushing through the entrance of the hospital pushing a stretcher. Gary lays lifeless with a oxygen mask around his mouth shirtless with only a sheet to cover the lower part of his body. His skin is pale matching the white fainted sheet. Seeing him like that almost causes me to black out again. "GARY!" I call pushing my way past people to get into the same room as him.

A few doctors pull me back once Gary is located into a free hospital room. "You can't go in there miss." The small dark haired male doctor closes the door behind him. He stands in front of me not allowing me to see let alone go inside to Gary.
"He's my boyfriend! I have every right! W...We're...going to have... a baby...please?" Uncontrollable floods of tears escape my eyes, as i bury my face into my hands.

After 10 minutes of begging and pleading to see Gary they finally agree. Another doctor appears from inside and whispers to the one who's stopping me from going in. The look on the smaller doctor's face completely drops like a ton of bricks he's left pinching the bridge of his nose releasing a quiet sigh. "Wha...What's happening?" Feeling terrified and sick i slowly stand to my feet walking to the doctor demanding news.
"He...Mr Barlow...would like to see you." Carefully he pushes the door enough for me to slide in. Without wasting time i slide through the gap, but before i fully enter the room the same doctor takes me by the arm. "You can't spend long with him... we'll be back once your time is up..." He releases his loose grip on my arm. Listening to what he says i nod in reply before turning to where Gary's bed is.

Sickness springs in my stomach almost like i'm on a roller coaster looking at Gary. He has a bandage tightly wrapped around his head completely covering his blond fluffy hair with a few blood stains seeping through. A tube hangs out the side of his mouth. Only when i stand beside his bed i notice his chest slowly rising and falling in time with the heart monitor. "Gaz...?" Quietly i whisper. No reply or movement. "Gary? Are you awake?" Carefully i take his hand in mine speaking a little louder. His hand feels like a block of ice compared to mine. Very faintly i notice his eyelids begin to flicker. "O...Oh...G...Gary..." My speech comes out stuttered feeling overwhelmed he's alive.
"C...C...Chloe...." He takes deep breathes during speech.
"I'm here.... i'm here babe..." I stroke the back of his hand against my cheek his finger tips brush my face slightly.
"T...This....I...Is...A...All...M...M...My....Fault...." His eyes close again panting a little faster for his breath. "I...I...Need...T...To...Say....S...Something..."

Kissing his hand trying to warm him up i sit beside him on a chair. "No...Gary please... please don't blame yourself... we didn't know this was going to happen... of course... i'm listening... tell me babe..."
Groaning slightly he takes a few more deep breathes. "P....Promise...me... that....that you..will... spoil....our baby.... p...pr...promise me.... you'll...find the best....daddy...for...for...them to...look...up to..." He pauses allowing a tear to roll down his cheek. Feeling scared and confused i look at him not understanding what he's talking about.
"You're the Dad Gary? What are you talking about?"
Slowly he opens his eyes a little again. "I....I...i'm...not....going...to...make...this..." A couple more tears escape his eyes. "J....Just...promise....to look after both...of yourselves....i'll...i'll always...be looking...down...on...you....both....i....love....you....both..." His hand very gently strokes my stomach and painfully he pushes out a faint smile before closing his eyes again.
"Gary please don't say that! You're going to make this! Please Gary please we're going to help you!" He doesn't respond it's almost like he's fallen into a sleep again causing the monitor to bleep loudly. "Gary?" Gently i nudge his shoulder. No reply. His chest stops moving and the pipe slides out of his mouth. "GARY! G...Ga...GARY! W...Wake... up!" Doing all i can to wake him up from kissing his icy lips to shaking his arm. It's no good. Some doctors come rushing through the door telling me to leave. "I'm not going anywhere!!" I scream not letting go of Gary's arm.

One of the doctors walk over to the monitor switching it off stopping the buzzing sound swirling around my ears. "We're....Sorry Miss..." A nurse places her hand onto my shoulder. "Time of death... 4:11pm..."
Refusing to believe any of them i don't let go of Gary. "WAKE UP! WAKE UP GARY!" Quickly i sit up causing my eyes to snap open.
"Chloe?? Chloe are ok?!" Someone beside me jumps from their seat pulling me into their arms. "It was just a dream Chloe..." Breathing faster i look around wide eyed. I'm back in my hospital room.
"Gary....Gary...he...he's...dead..."
Mark allows his arms to hang loosely around me. Where did he come from? "No... he's not Chloe... the police are still looking for him... you just had a dream... Gary isn't dead."
"D...D...dream...?" I swallow hard failing at holding the tears back. "Ohhh Mark!" Uncontrollable i break down into Mark's arms.

Chapter 23

My eyes are glued to the small screen of the scan. I feel sick. Sick with worry and panic. "Chloe? What are you doing in there?" Unable to speak my mouth feels dry, would he leave me? We haven't discussed this so it certainly wasn't planned. The door handle pulls down and a dark figure slides through. Quickly i shove the pregnancy test into my dressing gown's pocket preventing Gary from seeing. "Babe what's wrong?" He crouches beside me placing his hand onto my knee. Do i tell him? Or do i wait until the right moment...?
"I...I..I'm...erm... i had a bad dream... that's all." Speaking with a hoarse tone i can't bring it in me to even look him in the eyes. There's nothing more i hate than lying, especially to loved ones. Gary takes my hand in his and plants a soft kiss on top gently stroking it with his thumb. "Come on... lets get back to bed... i've got a surprise for you tomorrow."  He stands to his feet still loosely holding my hand. With a nod i agree hopefully with a good nights sleep things will be better by morning.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This evening Gary's planned a surprise for me, so i've got to dress for the occasion. Whilst applying my make up in the bathroom mirror i can't help but think of what happened last night. I'm pregnant... i never imagined it to happen like this. I'm the type of person who wants to plan a pregnancy with their partner, so we can avoid the label 'mistake'. Of course i'm going to keep it with or without Gary's support never in a million years would i go down the abortion route. Gritting my teeth firmly i reach for my dress which is hanging on the door before slipping it over my head. A knee length colourful summer dress is what i'll be wearing this evening. For a few seconds i stare at myself in the mirror there's no bump yet, so i guess i can hide it from Gary a little longer. Gently i stroke my stomach soon there will be a small bump there i still can't believe it. My phone buzzes on the sink. Shaking my head from my cloud of thoughts i reach for it clicking open on the message. (1) new message- Gary x. - Babe, you need to come out and meet me on the deck... i love you x. All of sudden a huge grin appears on my face. I can always count on Gary to make me feel better. Once i've finished getting ready i huddle my purse under my arm whilst locking the door behind me.

Tonight's much quieter than the night before. Everyone seems to be in their rooms instead of getting wasted on the desk. It's much darker too there seems to be no lights in sight. What's going on? Trying my best to walk to the middle of the deck out the corner of my eye i notice some lights at the rear end of the cruise ship. Out of nowhere music begins to play. Violins? 3 smartly dressed men walk over to where the lights are playing sweet music on violins. Feeling a little nervous i walk over to their direction it now becomes clear that they're standing around a table. It has a white netted table cloth which hangs to the floor neatly placed on top. Also there's two plates with name tags on each. 'C' and on the other 'G'. Biting my lip i try my best to hold back the smile which i fail to hide, as it plasters all over my face. One of the gentlemen pull back the chair with the name tag 'C'. "Thank you..." Quietly i speak whilst sitting down. This is beautiful. A candle lit meal on a cruise ship whilst looking up at the stars.
"Evening beautiful..." A voice speaks behind me snapping away my gaze from the sky. Gary stands behind with eyes full of love looking at me. He's smartly dressed in some black trousers, white shirt topped with a black waistcoat and matching tie. His hair is a little fluffy which the soft breeze blows slightly. Wow. Not taking my eyes off him they follow him, as he walks to his seat opposite me.
"You....you look...amaz...amazing Gary..." I'm the luckiest girl alive having someone like Gary in my life.
"You too babe." He stares deep into my eyes causing me blush.

The waiter brings our food over whilst we're engaged in conversation. "What are your thoughts on marriage?" Gary asks almost causing me to choke on my chicken.
"M...Marriage?" I mutter whilst sipping a glass of water. Is he going to ask me to marry him?!
"Isn't it your thing? Don't worry i'm not going to get down on one knee at this minute." He winks sucking in a long piece of spaghetti.
"Y...Yes i love weddings... i just... doesn't matter." Blushing even more i bow my head a little continuing with my dinner.
"Well i was thinking marriage would be great in about a year or so i was thinking of extending the house and getting maybe a small clinic or something so i can work from home... what do you think?" I can't believe what i'm hearing this is amazing!
"I'd love that!" Happily i sigh. Things couldn't get any better...maybe it's the right moment to mention being pregnant... "Gaz..."
"Yes babe?" He finishes his dinner giving me his full attention.
Swallowing hard stroking my damp forehead avoiding eye contact once again. "Erm... i need... i need to tell you something..."
"Go ahead? Are you ok?" His smile drops into a worried look. Gently he places his hand on top of mine showing support calming me slightly. I take a deep breath slowly glancing my eyes to his. "G...Gary...erm... i... i'm..i'm pre-" All of sudden i feel myself being thrown across the boat along with loud smashes. The side of my face makes contact with the hard wooden floor. Pain shoots through the whole of my body. Everywhere has gone pitch black some screams sound inside of the boat.
"Chloe?! Chloe???!" Gary's voice shouts through the darkness.

The whole of my body trembles from shocking the boat tips slightly causing me to roll uncontrollable to the side of the railings. "G...Gary?!" Tears run down my face from fear. What's happening?! Someone cups my face. Using just my hands i feel touching the figures face. It's Gary. "Baby?! Are you ok??!" Panic fills his voice.
"W...what's...h...happening?!" Weakly i reply my head hurts from hitting the floor.
"The boats crashed we need to get out of here...Can you walk?" Gary helps me to my feet, but i can't stand for long due to pain in my ankle.
"OUCH!" I cry out tightly holding Gary for support. The boat tips even more allowing water to come flooding in.
"Fucking hell...." Gary mumbles seeing the water swirl around our feet. Quickly he lifts me into his arms and walks as quick as he can to the crowd of people. "What's going on?!" He asks one of the staff members.
"The boats crashed... Someone... or a group have stabbed the captain and crashed the boat... everyone needs to get off here before we all drown to death, so just listen to what we say, ok?" Sickness fills my stomach. There's murders on board and we can drown?!
"G...G...Ga..." More tears come flooding down my face even Gary looks terrified, but wont admit it for my sake.
"We're going to be ok babe..." He plants a kiss onto my forehead joining the rest of the people. A handful of people are crying others screaming making me even more scared.
"What if the killers come out and finish us off?!" One woman shouts driving me into a complete nervous state. Some people start to put on life jackets heading for some boats which the staff members begin to push into the water.
"Here put this on babe." Gary hands me an orange coloured life jacket.
"W...what..what about yours?!" I ask panicking. Almost everyone is in the boats apart from a few of people, also me and Gary.
"Don't worry about me. Just put it on." He nervously instructs. Whilst putting the life jacket on i feel myself being thrown across the boat again, but  instead of smashing my head against the floor this time i fall into the sea with water filling my mouth. My eyes search the sea seeing the boat completely turned onto it's side throwing the rest of the people off with it. Rubbing my eyes i search for Gary. He's no where to be seen.
"GARY?!!" I scream. Nothing. Someone grabs me by the arm pulling me into a boat. There's about 6 people on it. "G...Gary?!" Hoping to find Gary pulling me in it turns out to be a young gentleman.
"Are you ok?" He asks securing me into the boat.
"G...Gary... i need Gary! Where is he???!" Angrily i shout scanning the water. Maybe he's got in another boat? Or maybe he's looking for me?

"Chloe!!" A voice shouts catching my attention. Over by the boat is a person holding onto the railing of the boat whilst the rest of the body is in the sea.
"Gary? Oh Gary!" Quickly i try to get out of the boat, but the people stop me. "Get off! Get off me i need to go to him!"
"Oh Chloe...." He wipes his eyes smiling a little at me. "I love you..."
Feeling even more scared about Gary not being safely on board with us causes me to blurt out my secret. "I...I... I'M PREGNANT!"
Gary freezes no emotion shows on his face. "R...rea...really?" He asks trying to look serious, but ends up shining me with a smile.
"Yes....oh Gary.... we're having a baby!" Loudly i call failing to hold back the tears smiling back at him. He covers his mouth still smiling, as he begins to swim to the direction of the boat. I sigh happily finally being able to tell him, closing my eyes i take deep breathes. A loud crash in the water causes me to open my eyes. The boats fully tipped over in the sea. "Gary?" Looking around the sea i search for him again. "GARY?!"
"T...the boat... it....it's gone over...on him...." A woman points to the sea tears fill in her eyes along with shock.
"W....What....? No....no... you're lying... where...where's....Gary.... NOOOOOO!!!"

Chapter 22

"S...sorry... i just...-"
"Got a prezzie in there for me ay?" Gary walks crawling onto the bed. My heart begins to beat a little faster. I need to find out alone first just incase.
"S...sort of... but... you can't see it...it's not ready." Quickly i zip my bag up kicking it under the bed out of his reach.
"Hmmm... i guess i'm going to have to unwrap you then..." Forcefully he pushes his lips onto mine causing me to fall flat onto the bed feeling the pressure from his body increase pinning me down. "Lets play a game of... Captain Barlow...." Slowly he sits up resting on the bottom of my stomach. Feeling slightly out of breathe from the kiss i glance up at him through the darkness of the room.
"Huh? What's that?" Asking with a confused tone seeing the grin slide across his face. Him and his games god knows what you'll end up playing!
"Already you're doing it wrong." He tuts squeezing my thigh almost turning his knuckles white. "It's like Simon says... but Captain Barlow says... and if you don't say it... then you've got to face the punishment..."
Raising my eyebrows i look towards the tightness of his trousers around his crotch area. Will this game be fun for him... or me?
"Ok..." Softly i mumble. Gary raises his eyebrow looking at me placing his hand against his ear waiting for me to finish my sentence. "Ok..... Gary..." Biting my lip i try to hide my smile.
"Wrong!" Using his elbows he slides down the bed pulling my legs with him. "Are you going to play the game correctly or am i going to force it out of you?" He replies licking his lips pulling me further down the bed. Already without him making contact i can feel his wet tongue sliding against me, those soft lips turning my skin slightly red and feeling the rough stubble brush against my skin.
"Gary...." Is all i'm able to moan feeling his hands grip either side of my underwear tugging them down past my ankles.

"One last chance..?" He mumbles his hot breathe tickling my skin, already he's having a strong effect on me. My back arches into the pillows moaning his name a little. "G...Ga..." He plunges his tongue against me draining the words from my mouth. Instantly a hand grips a fist full of his hair as he begins to swirl his tongue around my sensitive spots.
"ooooh...." Loudly i moan gritting my teeth, his tongue not allowing me to get use to his rhythm.
"I'm.... the... captain... " Gary speaks during licks and bites teasingly tugging my skin as his hands grip to my backside. Jeeez. A mixture of emotions wash over me whilst receiving Gary's pleasure it all starts to build up inside of me. "G..G..Gaz..." I stutter wrapping my fingers around the strands of his short blond hair. Ignoring me he continues sucking harder and licking faster driving me insane. "GARY PLEASE!" My voice begs him as my body begins to shake.
"Say it..." His voice vibrates against my skin shooting through my entire body. Breathing incredibly fast my eyes shut tightly finally feeling my orgasm crash over me causing me to scream out his name.
"CAPTAIN BARLOW!" Feeling exhausted i sink into the duvet fighting for my breath back. That was good. That was really good.

Gary creeps up beside me planting his lips onto mine allowing me to taste myself on him. "All aboard...." He whispers against my ear nuzzling into my neck.
"W...what?" I pant tilting my head into his direction. Standing to his feet he bows his head taking a better look at me. His erection tightening his trousers almost splitting them demanding attention.
"The captain... says... all... aboard..." He bites his lip whilst running the back of his hand against his moist pink lips. Grinning to myself i sit up understanding his 'game'. Slowly he walks over to the bed, so we change positions. Adjusting himself into a comfortable position he lays on the bed laying on his back with his eyes partly open. Removing the rest of my clothes i crawl on top of him teasingly undoing the rest of his buttons on his shirt. Trailing my tongue around the small patch of blond chest hair dragging it to each of his nipples giving them a sharp bite. "Bitch..." Gary grunts raising me a little on his stomach whilst he arches his back. Flicking my tongue over his nipples i start to tease him even more, as my hand skillfully unzips his trousers allowing him to freely kick them from his legs. "Aaah..." He sighs happily once his erection springs through the side of his briefs. Using just a finger i pull down his briefs exposing his erection fully. My tongue travels down from his chest to his belly button sliding my tongue around it, then finally to the bottom of his stomach. "Oooh..." His hand locks against the back of my head as my tongue shows talent onto his hardened self. "That's it........yes..." Thrusting his hips slightly exploring my mouth showing how eager he is.

"F...fuck....me... Miss Matthews...." He breathless growl sounds in the back of his throat. Grinning like a Cheshire cat enjoying the state i'm turning him into my fingers stroke his stomach, as i begin to position himself against my entrance. Inch by inch he sinks deep inside of me until i sit rested on him.
"Ooooh... Captain..." Moaning louder i rest my head backwards whilst i begin to slowly ride him. Gary secures his hands onto my waist bucking his hips faster sinking deeper into me.
"Oh...fuck..." He stutters holding me tighter increasing his speed rapidly. Sweat builds on both of our foreheads which connects like glue once we press them together. "M...Miss...M...Matthews...." Trying the best he can holding it in Gary bites my lip harder almost fetching blood.
"Come...come for me...." I pant riding him faster resting my hands onto his shoulders helping me increase my pace on him.
"I....I...er...."
"Come for me.... captain.... come Captain Barlow... i want to feel you..." Loudly i groan in his ear. That's all he needs sending him completely off the edge filling me with his load. Another crash of multiple orgasms hit me. "Oooooohhh...." We both fall onto the bed cradling one another.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The sound of rain hitting against the window wakes me. Soft snores sound against my ear coming from Gary's parted lips. How long have we been asleep for? "Gaz?" I whisper gently nudging him. Nothing. He must be in a deep sleep after our passionate embrace a few moments ago. Sliding out of bed as quiet as possible i reach for my dressing robe from my night bag before tip toeing to the bathroom. Loosely i tie the robe around my naked body whilst searching in my bag. Feeling the hard box at the bottom it sends shivers through my body. I'm nervous. I haven't been this nervous before. My eyes scan the box several times obeying the instructions. It's now or never... Gary wont be asleep forever.

After doing the step by step it says i have to wait 1-2 minutes for the results. Sitting on the toilet seat i stare at the plastic stick which rests on the rim of the sink. How will Gary re act to this? I might not even be pregnant, but maybe i should of told him. Maybe we should of been more careful. Slowly i look at my watch. 3minutes have pasted. Taking a deep breath i take the pregnancy test in my palm. After 3 i think to myself. Grin and bare it. 1....2.... 3. I remove my thumb from the screen. 3weeks pregnant. I swallow hard as tears run to my eyes. It can't be. I'm pregnant?! I'm 3 weeks pregnant??!
"Chloe?" A tired voice from the other side of the door sounds gently knocking causing me to panic even more. What do i do?!

Chapter 21

"Chloe? Baby come on." Gary whines on the other side of the door. After i've slipped on my dress i apply some light natural tones of make up along with a few squirts of perfume. Gary's planned us a 'little break'. No idea what he means we're on holiday yet we're packing a few things to go away again? Makes no sense really. I quickly grab my small bag with a few overnight things in before opening the bathroom door to find Gary sitting on the sofa's arm. "Finally!" He stands up grinning wearing his brown shorts and blue top with black flip flops. "Ready then?"
"Where are we going? I need to quickly nip to the shop first."
Gary slides his fingers into mine. "It's a surprise." He kisses the end of my nose. "Why do you need to go to the shops?"
"Fancy something sweet." Replying with a shrug for some reason i don't feel myself. Maybe it's the new atmosphere or just everything which has gone off in the past few months.
"Am i not sweet enough?" Cheekily Gary giggles taking a tight grip of my hand as we leave our apartment.
"Hmmm... i'll suppose i'll dip you in chocolate and eat you tonight." I place his finger into my mouth biting the tip. Gary releases a soft groan whilst locking the door behind us.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Get a drink for yourself Gaz?" We end up in a small beach supermarket only with about 4 aisles of different groceries
"We're going to be late..." Gary mumbles under his breath. "I don't want anything." Is this Gary or has he been replaced by a 10year old.
"You need a drink babe." I reach for two bottles of coke placing them into the partly full basket. I don't think i've ever gone this mad on sweet things. Guess this is the new me. We walk over to the check out to pay for the shopping. "Oh wait i've forgotten something." Quickly i walk back to one of the aisles looking for some doughnuts. Gary's favourites. Until something catches my eye on the way. For some reason it draws me in getting my attention. Pregnancy tests. I swallow hard staring at the small shelf containing different brands. Don't be silly Chloe you can't be pregnant... i mean i am late this month and we haven't been as careful as we should of been, but that doesn't mean i'm pregnant...
"Chloe! I'm gonna make a quick phone call back in a sec." Gary's voice calls from one of the aisles. As soon as he leaves the shop i pick up one of the boxes. Clearblue 99.9% accurate. There's no harm in being sure is there? I'm probably not even pregnant even if i am all of a sudden eating like an elephant. Taking the box i quickly dash back to the check out to pay for the shopping stuffing the pregnancy test to the bottom of my over night bag. I can't tell Gary not yet i need to find out for myself first i don't even know how he would react to this. "Ready?" He walks back towards me with his Gucci sunglasses perched on the bridge on his nose.
"Uh huh..."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We arrive at the beach after a 30 minute walk. I've never seen a beach so crowded before it's almost like a huge concert of some sort. "We're here." Gary stops once we reach the sand.
"Here? What do you mean here? I'm not staying on the beach for days god knows what will happen with these people here."
Gary chuckles resting his hand on his stomach. "You silly bugger. Look." He points to the direction of the blue crystal clear water.
"There's nothing there?" I raise my eyebrow getting a little frustrated from the heat. Gary releases a soft sigh whilst placing his hands onto my shoulders moving me into his direction. Something slowly travels in the sea from a distance. "Erh... a boat?"
"Get it now?" A smug grin forms at the corners of his mouth. My jaw drops a little as the boat makes it's way closer to the crowd of people. "I booked us a cruise." I stare at the huge white cruise ship it's almost the same size of the whole beach.
"W..w...wow..." Is all i'm able to mutter.

Once the cruise ship stops in the sea a few smartly dressed men and woman in red walk down a ramp from the boat. They begin to take tickets from the passengers who make their way onto the boat. "Come on babe." Gary takes a tight grip to my hand pushing through the crowd of people. Nervously i follow him past the crowd. Why are we pushing to the front?
"Oi they're pushing in!" A few annoyed people frown at us.
"Fuck off." Gary mumbles under his breath. Feeling like a decade we finally get to the front of the line. He pulls out a card from his pocket. "Dr. Gary Barlow and guest."
"Thank you, and here's your room card sir. You both need to wear these wristbands." The lady smiles in a friendly at us both handing us our brightly coloured wristbands.
"Cheers." We begin walking up the ramp to the deck. It looks amazing i've never been on a cruise ship before. The deck's floor is polished you can even see your reflection on it.
"Sir. Madame. Complementary champagne?" A gentleman in a smart black suit with a bow tie offers us a glass of champagne. Gary takes two glasses and hands me one.
"Oh... no thanks..." I push the glass away a little. IF i am pregnant drinking alcohol isn't a good idea. Gary raises his eyebrow at me looking a little concerned. "I'm ok... it's just...erm.. the heat... it makes me feel sick... that's all." Forcefully i push out a convincing smile.
"Lets find our room, yeah?"

The ship starts to gently rock as it begins to travel again. It must hold thousands of people it's just like the Titanic all over again. We reach our room which has a stunning view of the sea you can even see the different coloured tropical fish swimming beside the boat. "This is... this is amazing Gary...." I sigh happily staring at the glistening rippled sea.
"You're amazing..." A single finger strokes down my spine to the bottom of my back. Sending electrical vibes through out my entire body.
"Mmmm..." Gently i moan grinning softly. "This is going to be so romantic... just like Titanic..."
Gary's lips plant soft kisses against my neck. "Sure is..." His warm breathe tickles my neck.
"Oooh i wanna recreate the scene!" Grinning like a 5 year old i turn around to face him breaking contact with his lips from my neck.
"Scene...?"
"Yeah the one... erm i don't know what it's called. The part when Rose has her arms out like she's flying at the front of the boat?"
Rolling his eyes playfully softly grinning. "I remember... which one."
"Can we do it? I've always wanted to do it since i saw the film. Please?"
"Come on then."

Sneakily we walk over to the very front of the ship. Not one person is around they're all too busy getting drunk on the free champagne. I peer over the side of the ship and my stomach instantly turns at the height we are. "Oh... god... i can't do this..." Before i get chance to walk back inside Gary holds onto my arm pulling me against his chest.
"Sure you can babe... just like in the movie... i'll hold you." He takes me back to the front of the ship so i'm touching the rails.
"B...B..but..." I swallow hard trying my best not to look down.
"Just climb up i've got you." Gary takes a firm grip to my waist helping me onto the railing. Nervously i climb closing my eyes tightly. Doing the same Gary places his feet either side of the bars behind me. "Open your eyes babe..." He whispers against my ear also spreading out my weak arms for me. Very slowly i open my eyes flickering my eyelids so i can get a quick glimpse. "Trust me." Feeling his support i begin to relax fully opening my eyes.
"Wow...." Speechless doesn't even cover it nor does romantic. I rest my head a little onto his chest feeling his steady heartbeat in his chest. This is beautiful. The blazing sun slowly starts to fade into the pink sky. I feel free, overwhelmed and completely loved up.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"That was so beautiful Gaz!" I grin hugely whilst holding onto Gary's hand to get down from the railings. Tightly his arms wrap around me, as his hand rakes through my long brown curled hair. "Couldn't agree more..." Looking up from his chest i look into his deep blue eyes whilst my hand gently brushes against his golden stubble which looks stunning as the sun hits against it.
"I love you...Gary."
"I love you too..." Our lips gently press against one anothers for a second or two. Slowly we break away only for eye contact before making contact again. This time passionate causing me to swing my arms around the back of his neck pulling him closer. A groan leaves Gary's lips vibrating against mine. "I've got a surprise for you..." He speaks with a breathly voice.
"Oh?" I look a little surprised. More surprises? He's really impressing me tonight.
Without waiting any longer he takes my hand almost dragging me back to our room. "Wait here a sec." I walk over to the bed waiting for him. 'Surprise' i wonder what he has in store for me. Maybe he's going to appear covered in edible body chocolate... wouldn't mind licking that from every inch of his naked body. A cheeky grin appears onto my face with the dirty thoughts swirling around my head.

15 minutes later there's a knock on the door causing me to wake up from my slight daze. "C...come.. in?" Rubbing my eyes i sit up. The door slowly opens and in walks a man dressed in white wearing the same sunglasses as Gary's. Blinking my eyes a few times i stare at the man. "G...G..Gary?" I almost choke staring at him dressed as a Captain. Seeing his bare chest through his half done up shirt and the bulge in his tight white trousers.
"Evening Miss Matthews..." He locks the door behind him slowly making his way over to the bed. "I'm your Captain...for this evening... Captain Barlow..." His hand moves to the direction of my overnight bag. My eyes snap from my trance of him remembering the pregnancy test is in there.
"No! Wait!" I call grabbing hold of my bag. A confused look spreads across Gary's face. Shit.

Chapter 20

We arrive at our apartment. Gary's friend is away for the month so he offered us to stay for as long we wanted. "Just throw everything in the bedroom." In walks Gary struggling with the two cases.
"Aren't we going to unpack first?" I ask sounding confused reaching for one of the suit cases from Gary's grip.
"I'd much rather guzzle a pint down my neck." Raking his fingers through his hair he looks at me. You can't really argue with him...i mean look at him!
"Ok... i'll sort the things out when we get back then." I grab my purse before linking arms with him. It is already 7pm so it's starting to get dark already.
"No you won't this holiday is to relax. Sod the cases." Grumpy Gary is such a turn on. Wow.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After 2 and a half hours of drinking we are both pretty much wasted. "I'm just going to the men's room." Gary slurs loudly against my ear whilst stumbling to his feet.
"Uh....huh." Is all i manage to reply with knocking back yet another shot. Watching Gary stagger to the men's room he almost falls through the door once he reaches it. I sit alone nursing my empty shot glass watching people dance madly to all kinds of music.
"Come! Come!" A voice shouts in my direction pulling me out of my seat. Squinting my eyes i look at a small  tanned brown haired man who drags me from our table.
"W...who are you?" I ask hiccuping from the alcohol. We go to the middle of the bar where there's a crowd of people.
"Play game. Come pretty lady come." He takes me behind the bar. "Lay on bar. We play game." Feeling incredibly confused i look over at the toilets searching for Gary. He must still be in there. All of a sudden i feel myself being lifted onto the bar by two men with muscles the size of my head. "Lay down!" The small man shouts. Doing as he says i lay on the bar like i'm in bed. The crowd of people start to form around the bar.
"I want to do this one! Holy fuck look at her!" A few drunken men shout. Shit. What's happening?! Out of no where a man climbs onto the bar and straddles me sitting on the bottom of my stomach. My eyes widen looking at him, as hiccups continue to leave my parted lips. I'm far too drunk to understand what's happening or what's going to happen.

The dark haired man who has me pinned to the bar reaches for a cocktail shaker and places it beside me. Quickly he removes his shirt placing my hands onto his abs whilst he grinds against my body. Wow. Is this a stripper? He's kinda fit i must admit that. He places the cocktail shaker at the front of his jeans and begins to fill it was various alcohol flavours. No idea what they were, but it went from clear water like liquids to electric pinks and greens brightening up his chest which they ran down into the shaker. "On three!" The guy reaches for my hands and place one on top of the shaker and the other under the shaker whilst it remains in his jeans. "ONE! TWO! THREE! SHAKE!" He moves my hands up and down like i'm giving him a handjob.
"Faster! Faster!" The crowd shout. My hands start to move faster shaking the cocktail in the man's jeans getting covered in the liquid which manges to escape. He leans closer to me trying to make contact with my lips, but surprisingly i move my head aside shaking harder. Men from around the bar start pulling at my clothes almost ripping them from me. This doesn't look good.

"OI!" A voice shouts at the end of the bar. Turning my head to the direction of the voice behind the man who still has me pinned down i notice Gary standing there. Anger spreads all over his face with a hand placed firmly against his ribs. "Get off her now or do i have to drag you off?" He speaks less drunk than before.
"Oh soz pal..." At last i'm free the man moves backwards allowing me to escape. "Call me sometime?" He winks taking my hand helping me off the bar. Softly i giggle whilst sitting up looking over at Gary who's face has turned a little red.
"Oh hiya baby!" Giggling drunk as i try and walk over to Gary, but my drunken feet fail me causing me to fall into the arms of random men.
"Hey there...." A dark skinned man grins down at me trying to plant a kiss onto my lips, but before he does someone grabs hold of my arm yanking me from his touch.
"Woooooaaahhhh!" I laugh loudly allowing myself to be pulled away.

Gary tightly holds my hand dragging me out of the bar. "What the fuck Chloe??!" He finally speaks once we're outside where it's much more quieter.
"I...I was having fun." Grinning like a complete drunken idiot i fall against his chest. Tightly he wraps his arm around my waist whilst we head back to the apartment.
"Fun?! You let men grab you and do things to you like that, and you call that fun?!" Angrily he shouts in the middle of the street.
"Calm down babe...liven up." Clamping my palms against his cheeks i pull him into a kiss, but he bats my hands away.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What feels like a lifetime we finally reach the apartment. Gary throws me inside knowing the sofa will catch me. "Weeeee!" Laughing loudly as i fall onto the huge leather sofa. "Tonight was so much fun!" The door slams shut loudly.
"Acting like a slut is fun is it?" He growls against my ear.
Pouting my lips like a naughty school girl i try to sit up. "Slut huh?"
"You should be taught a lesson." Gary hovers above me tugging his belt from his jeans. "Punishment." He slaps the belt against his palms.
"So.....punish me then." Teasing him as much as possible i sit up straight on the sofa. Not wasting any time he grabs both of my wrists using the belt as a cuff he leaves my hands hanging above my head.
"Oh... don't worry... i will..." His warm breathe tickles the hairs on my neck. Lifting me into his arms he places me on the sofa's arm where my stomach rests. Pulling down my skirt and knickers the bottom half of me is now naked. "So... was tonight... fun?" He asks in a calm, but demanding tone. Slowly i turn my head around to look over my shoulder at him who's stood behind me.
"It sure was..." Softly i giggle. Gary pulls his hand back cracking it against my flesh causing me to yelp a little. Taking it all as a joke a cheeky smile forms on my face. "I loved every....single...second of it..." Repeating his actions Gary pulls his hand back even further hitting my skin even harder several times. My backside begins to burn from the contact of his hand. "Ouccch fuck!" Moaning loudly i hide my face into the sofa.

"Well... i asked was tonight fun... and i want the right answer tonight." He moves closer to me. Feeling his crotch push against my backside he's hard.
"They....they spanked me....harder...than you." I bite my lip harder holding back my giggles. It almost feels like i've fallen into a heap of nettles as he continues spanking me harder. "Ouuuuccchhh...." I hiss through my teeth.
"Well?" Gary asks with a pleased tone in his voice.
This is punishment is too good to be a punishment. "I thought you was going to punish me?" Expecting another good hard spanking Gary steps backwards. Zipping down his jeans the best he can with numb hands ,sneakily i peer over my shoulder my eyes catch a glimpse of his erection which his hand has formed a fist around. Making himself even harder.

Gently he teases me stroking himself against my entrance. "I'm going to ask you one more time... did you enjoy acting like a slut tonight?" Feeling his warmth against me drives me insane. I want him. I need him inside of me.
"Y....Ye.." Before i get chance to finish my sentence he pushes himself deep inside of me making me call out
in pleasure. "Oooooh Gary..." Purring from his touch. His thrusts start off fast and hard not allowing me to get use to it. "Punishment huh?" He digs hands into the sides of my waist i'm sure he'll leave little bruises which he'll kiss once this 'punishment' is over.
"Fuck...Chloe..." Gary grabs fist fulls of my hair working himself into a fast rhythm slamming in and out of me.

My body begins to shake. It's getting too much. "G...G...Gary..." My nails scratch against the leather sofa making an awful sound like running your nails across a blackboard.
"No.... not until you admit....you're...mine...and only mine...." Increasing his thrusts rapidly i decide to surrender. Of course i didn't mean the things i said. Gary's the love of my life it's just fun to test his patience now and again.
"I....I'm...yours....and....and... only yours...." Once the words leave my lips Gary finally releases himself filling me with his load. "OOOH GAZ...." I hiss through my teeth letting go of myself multiple times.

"Did you mean it?" He asks still panting whilst we lay completely naked on the sofa with my arms wrapped around his waist.
"No babe... honest..." Nibbling his jaw as i plant little kisses onto it. He wraps his arms around me even tighter nuzzling his nose into my hair.
"Good... you're my girl, and i love you."

Chapter 19

Gary drums his fingers against my knickers causing shivers to shoot up my spine from his touch. He's irresistible. Skillfully whilst lifting me higher against the cubicle wall he slides down my knickers allowing them to swing from my left ankle as i tightly wrap my legs around his waist. I want him. God i want him. Biting my lip a little i stare at him in his tight white t- shirt. Those muscular arms , that golden chest hair shining through his paper thin t-shirt highlighting his pecks, and not forgetting that incredible torso. Sneakily moving my hands under the back of his t shirt whipping it up and over his head making his blond hair become a little messy. How hot does he look? That shirtless muscly body standing in front of me just waiting for a hard fuck.

Cheekily Gary places a finger into his own mouth sucking it leaving his eyes full of lust. Focusing his eyes onto mine as very slowly he presses his wet finger against my entrance. His fingers have a strong effect on me wrapping my legs even tighter around his waist as i feel him sink his finger inside of me. Pushing it deeper exploring me before adding another...then another. "Ohhh....Ga-" Preventing me from moaning Gary bites onto my tongue.
"Shhhh...." He flicks his tongue against mine increasing the speed of his fingers which start to pound inside of me. Trying to control my breathing along with my moans i bite against his neck muting myself. "Aaah...." Gary groans feeling even more turned on. I'm pretty sure i fetched blood but he didn't care. Sending me even more over the edge he brings his thumb into action, as he starts to swirl it around my sensitive area at the same speed of his fingers.
"O...Oh...G...Gaz..." My legs begin to tremble from the pleasure i'm receiving from him. Once the words leave my shaking lips Gary slowly slides out his fingers as he quickly undoes the belt on his jeans. Tugging his briefs down at the same time releasing his throbbing self digging against me.
"God i need to feel you Chloe... i need to fill you... you've done this to me..." Loudly he growls pushing more of his weight onto me, so my back is completely flat against the wall. Feeling the warmth of his erection begin to travel up my skirt causing me to swing my arms back around the back of his neck bringing his lips closer to mine again, as he positions himself against me.

Hungrily i kiss his lips taking grips with his bottom lip in between my teeth, as he slowly lowers me onto his harden self. "Aaahh...." Gary releases a sigh of relief allowing me to sit there for a minute or two. Our lips collide again kissing passionately as he starts to buck his hips up pushing me higher up the door. Instantly my hands grab fist fulls of Gary's fluffy blond hair tugging and pulling whilst the speed of his hips increase. Hitting harder against me sweat begins to form on his forehead.
"O...h...yes Gary.....please...faster"
Gary shakes his head a little smirking slightly. "Don't get telling me what to do Miss..." Rapidly he increases the speed of his hips hitting harder into me. Scratching my finger nails deep onto his back drawing a little cry from his lips trying to get use to his fast rhythm
"G....G...Gary!" Warning him with my eyes about my orgasm approaching panting even faster. Picking up the pace going as fast as he can, until it soon gets all too much for us. "GAARRRYYY!" Screaming out his name hearing the loud bumps from Gary as he pushes me against the wall. Clenching around him as i let go of myself.
"Oh fuck....yes...Chloe....oh god yes...." It isn't long after me Gary releases his load into me. His sweating forehead falls against my breasts feeling his warm breath slightly tickle them.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Quickly we stumble around getting dressed in the tiny cubicle. "Do you think anyone heard?" I ask whilst zipping my skirt back up.
Gary calmly gets dressed. "Nah... probably just the whole plane... no biggie." He laughs loudly.
"Gaz! It's not funny!" Trying to hide my smile i playfully tap his arm bending down for my bra. All of a sudden the sharp pain happens in my stomach again. "Ow..." Hissing under my breath as i hold my ribs.
"Chloe? Are you ok?" Gary places his hand onto my back looking concerned.
Taking a few deep breathes calming the pain again i look up a little. "Y...Yeah... just a stitch." I continue getting dressed when the pain eases a little. Not taking his eyes off me Gary watches me getting dressed like a guard dog. "Babe honest. I'm fine it was just a stitch." Sweetly i smile at him sorting out my messy hair.
"Hmmm... good... just take it easy...yeah?"
Replying with a nod i place a soft kiss on his flushed cheek. "I will babe."
"Ladies and Gentlemen if you would please take your seats and fasten your seat belts we'll be ready to land in exactly 13 minutes." Gary takes my hand and gently kisses the top.
"We better do as we're told babe... it's holiday time.... just you and me... mmm...heaven." He grins as we sneak out of the cubicle holding hands.

Chapter 18

"Gary! Gary! Open this door!" Loudly i call hitting my palm against the tall white door. Crashes and bangs sound from inside the room. God knows what he's doing in there we've got to get him out...now! "Mark! Help me!" I shout whilst hitting harder against the door. Nervously Mark runs over to my direction. Worry spreads over his face by the sounds coming from the other side of the door. "Mark...please..."
"I'll... i'll go and find a spare key." Quickly he runs round to the reception, a small crowd has formed a few inches away. Bet they're loving the fact being kept waiting using this as entertainment.
"Don't just stand there! Someone help!" A tall gentleman approaches me.
He places his hand onto my shoulder. "Step aside madame." Doing as he says i step backwards as he begins kicking at the door. Nothing. The door remains in tack. Mark comes running back over with a key tightly squeezed in his fist.
"Right... when i open this door... i want people to step away... just incase." Mark sighs a little placing the key into the keyhole.
"W...what do you mean?" Tugging on Mark's arms i look into his nervous looking eyes.
"Well.. the state he's in.... he could do anything... the anger taking over him...just be careful... yeah?"
My jaw drops a little. "No! Gary wouldn't ever hurt me! You don't know him at all just open this door!" Frowning at Mark i angrily shout as i stand waiting. Not saying a word he turns the key unlocking the door. From the inside it's quiet very slowly Mark opens the door. The whole room is covered in scattered paperwork, the desk is upside down against the wall and there's pieces of broken chair around the room. "G....Gary...." Very quietly i whisper noticing him with his back against the wall in a corner of the room. His eyes are closed and he's slowly breathing taking deep breathes every so often. "Gaz..." Stepping over some of the paperwork i begin making my way over to him. Mark instantly grabs hold of my arm.
"Chloe." He shakes his head. I turn around to look at him as i shrug off his grip.

I continue slowly walking over to Gary. "Babe? Are you ok?" Gently i go to touch his cheek, but before i do he moves his head from my reach snapping open his tired looking eyes. His eyes look lost almost like he's not himself anymore. This isn't my Gary. "Gaz... come on... lets get out of here." Blinking a few times he looks around his office at the mess before stumbling to his feet. Not saying a word Gary walks out the room pushing past everyone in his way. My legs begin to shake as i follow him outside. "Can....can we go home...please?" Gary stares straight a head at the car park searching for his car.
"Y...yes...i'll drive." Nervously i take his hand in mine as we walk over to the parked car.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The whole car ride was silent. Only thing i managed to get out of him was "hmm." When i asked if he was feeling ok. Once we pull up onto the driveway Gary instantly removes his seat belt before hurrying inside. "Gary?" I call releasing my seat belt following him inside the house."Gary where are you going?" Confused as i watch him jog upstairs.
"Erm...i...need to pee." The bathroom door slams shut.
Leaning against the banister i sigh. "I'll make us some coffee..."

Whilst making the coffees i stare out the window steadily breathing. Thinking of all the things which have happened today. I've never seen Gary like this before it scared me seeing him that way. Getting lost in my thoughts a sharp pain in my stomach catches my attention. "Urghhh..." I grip hold of my stomach taking a few deep breathes calming the pain. It felt like a stitch as if i've just run a marathon. Thankfully it only lasts for a minute or two.

Footsteps sound on the hallway's laminate flooring. "Ga-" As i turn around i notice him standing in the doorway wearing his leather jacket with two suitcases either side of him. "G...Gary?" Swallowing hard as i study his face. "Y...you're...leaving?"
"No..." Calmly he speaks. My legs begin to feel a little weak. Is he throwing me out? Has this day completely changed the way he thinks about our relationship?
"P...please...Gary... i can...i can change?" Begging him with my eyes holding back the tears.
Gary looks surprised and shakes his head. "Hey... i'm not doing that either...silly..." Gently he strokes my cheek with the back of his hand. "I love you."
"I love...you too..." Breathing a sigh of relief i look towards the door way again at the suitcases. "But... what are they for?"
A small smile forms on Gary's face. "We're going away for a few days."
"Huh? Where?"
The sound of a car horn interrupts us as Gary turns to the direction of the door. "Come on." He takes my hand in his walking to the door. "I'll explain when we're at the airport."
"Gary! We ca-" Firmly he pushes his lips against mine draining the words from my mouth.
"No more questions babe. Please get in the taxi."
Staring at him for a couple of seconds i do as he says. Grabbing my coat before walking outside to the taxi. Gary shortly follows me locking the front door behind him as he begins loading the suitcases into the boot of the taxi.
"Ready mate?" The driver asks whilst Gary joins me in the back. With a grin on his face Gary nods buckling his seat belt. His hand gently strokes my knee those long fingers spreading onto my thigh as we make our journey. I should be happy, but i'm more nervous about where we are going and when we're actually coming home.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We patiently wait inside the airport for our flight to be called. Still i have no clue where we are going. "Babe? Are you feeling ok?" Gary looks concerned at me licking his finger as he flicks through a newspaper. Without saying anything i just nod in reply to his question. The way Gary acted today and that funny feeling in my stomach has worried me. "Chloe? Baby? What is it?" Placing both of his hands onto my shoulders he looks deep into my eyes. Of course i want to talk to him about it, but being stuck in an airport isn't the best place to talk about things.
"Y...yeah just tired..." Forcefully i push out a smile resting my head against his upper arm. Swirling his palm around my shoulder he nuzzles his nose into my hair taking a deep breath inhaling my scent.

"All passengers who are heading to Mallorca please get your passports ready in line at gate 8A." A female voice speaks through a microphone.
"This is our flight babe." Gary mumbles against my ear. Instantly i lift my head by the sound of his voice.
"M...Mallorca?"
He nods reaching for my hand. "We better get in line."

30minutes of standing in line with annoyed and stressed out people we finally get to our seats on the plane. Some people should get their tongues removed for moaning that much! Gary's eyes are fixed staring out the window colour from his face has faded a little. "Gaz? Are you ok?" Remaining in the same position he continues staring at the runway. "Gary?" Gently i stroke the top of his hand which is resting on his thigh.
"Huh?!" He flinches lifting a few inches from his seat.
"Gary??" Nervously i look at him trying to calm him back taking a tight grip to his arm.
Panic strikes in his eyes as the plane finally starts to rumble. "I'm... i'm not good with these bloody things." Breathing faster he glances back out the window.
"It's ok... i'm not great with them either... just try not to think about it...yeah?" Gently i place a kiss on his knuckles showing my support. A very faint smile appears on his face as he tries to relax in his seat closing his eyes whilst the plane takes off. Squeezing my hand a little tighter as the plane adjusts it's position in the sky Gary breathes out a sigh of relief.

"Good evening ladies and gentleman this is Mr Jones i'm your pilot for this afternoon. Please relax and don't hesitate to ask any questions to members of staff." The colour slowly starts to reappear in Gary's face feeling the plane travel more steadily.
"You did great..." Softly i whisper placing a kiss onto his cheek pressing my lips against his rough stumble. "Mmmm.."
Shyly he smiles. "Embarrassing really...grown man being scared... thank you."
 "Hey... don't be silly... everyone's scared of something.. you handled it fine." Repeating myself i place a deep kiss onto his lips. "Just nipping to the toilet can you order me a drink for when i'm back?"
"Yeah course." He grins watching me leave.

Once i get into the small cubicle i lock the door. I'm actually looking forward to be going on holiday with Gary now. Our first holiday together! As i go to pull down my skirt to use the toilet there's a knock on the door. "Someone's in here?" I call unzipping my skirt. Choosing to ignore me they knock again this time a little louder. Zipping my skirt back up i open the door. "Didn't you he-" By surprise Gary's stood at the door grinning slightly.
"Let me in." He bites his lip.
Feeling confused i look at him. A woman who's sitting near the cubicle turns round by the sound of our voices. "What? No there's not enough room."
Gary tries sliding himself in beside. "Quick."
"For god's sake." Leaning my back against one of the small walls i allow Gary to get in. "Why are yo-" The room begins to get smaller as Gary forcefully presses his lips onto mine giving me a breath taking kiss. During the kiss Gary locks the door again before allowing his hands to trace my body teasing his fingers up my skirt. "Ever done this before?" He growls against my neck swirling his tongue around my pulse point.
With a shaky breath i wrap my arms around the back of his neck bringing him even closer. "N...no..."
"You're in for a treat then...."

Chapter 17

"Chloe come on I've got to go." Gary scans the room one last time looking for the key. Quickly I slip my dressing gown on ripping off the duvet from the bed whilst looking for it. Where the hell has it gone? "Argh I've got to go please keep looking...ring me if you find it yeah?" He places a kiss on my forehead leaving the room with a cuff still on one of his wrists.
"Ok...love you?"I stand watching beside the bed watching him, as he leaves the room running outside to his car. Softly I sigh as I sit on the bed. Sometimes it does feel like he puts his job first, but then again he is a doctor..he saves lives he has to.

An hour later I'm still looking for the key. Pulling off the mattress, stripping off the sheets and looking under the bedside table. This is impossible! As I'm about to give up something catches my eye something shining from the bedroom light. My hand moves to the direction of Gary's trainer. Its the key! The key is in Gary's trainer! I breathe out a sigh of relief placing it onto the bedside table whilst quickly dialling Gary's number. Straight to voice mail. He must be with a patient. As fast as i can i get dressed i need to get the key to him otherwise he could be sacked.

After a 20 minute drive the taxi finally arrives at the hospital. Once i've paid i make my way through the entrance doors. Being greeted by bright lights on the white flooring. Hospitals are always so bright not surprised so many people end up here the place alone is a danger zone! "Can i help you miss?" A friendly voice asks whilst i squint my eyes to the direction of the voice. A small blond woman in a smart white uniform smiles at me from behind a reception desk.
"Erm... i'm looking for Gary.... erm i mean Dr Barlow?" Tightly i hold the handcuff key in my hand. It's not going to go on a walk about this time.
"He's busy at the moment but you can take a seat if it's a quick visit." She points over to a waiting area a couple of steps away from a white door with a plack reading 'Dr. G. Barlow'. Walking over to a seat where i sit bowing my head a little just incase Mark sees me. It feels so long since i've seen him, but i'm only here for Gary tonight. We'll talk some other time.
"Phowar Doctor Barlow.....the reason why i enjoy being ill...or pretending to be." Two girls giggle engaged in conversation. "He's still on the market as well i hear..."
A lump forms in my throat. He is not single? I guess they wouldn't know that because Gary is professional and doesn't talk about his personal life. The door of Gary's room opens a youngish girl walks out grinning. "Next please." Gary's voice calls causing one of the girls opposite me to stand up. Jealousy begins to build inside of me. Why are all the women flirting over Gary? I know he's a gorgeous looking man, but he's my boyfriend for godsake!
"Chloe?"
My head lifts calming me down a little as the woman disappears into Gary's room. "M...Mark?" Standing infront of me holding a clipboard is Mark. It feels so weird seeing him after these past weeks. Month even.
"Hello... are you ill?" He asks a little concerned looking at me.
I shake my head a little swallowing hard. "N...No...i came to give Gary something."
"Oh...ok...i see..." Mark runs his hand through his hair. "See you around sometime?"
Before Mark walks away i pull his arm stopping him in his tracks. "Wait... don't go... are you ok?"

A small smile forms on his face. "Yeah...just missing my best friend that's all..."
"I'm sorry Mark...but what happened last time... the way you acted... it was just-"
"I know...and i'm sorry Chloe." He sighs a little. Gary's door opens again and the woman comes out giggling.
"Those fingers...touching my thigh...oh my!" She walks over to her friend chatting about Gary. Mark also looks to their direction.
"Next!" Gary's voice calls again.
"Next? I'll give him fucking next!" Pushing my way in front of a woman who's just about to walk into the room. Mark tries to pulls me back.
"Chloe don't!"
Gary's head instantly lifts seeing me standing in his room. "Chloe? What are you doing here?? I'm working?!" Gary snaps a little.
"Come on Chloe. You can't not whilst Dr Barlow is on duty." Mark tries to get me out of the room, but it's not good it's like my feet are glued to the floor.
"I'm not going anywhere until he explains...what are those girls are talking about?!" Keeping put i fold my arms looking at him.
Gary rolls his eyes. "Oh here we go....they come out all flirty about me and apparently i've been having sex with them ay?" Angrily shakes his head. "And you! Why did you let her barge in here like that?!" He looks at Mark who's standing beside me.
"Excuse me? But i was talking to her she pushed past the patient and me i tired my best to stop her." Mark frowns.
"Tried? Well obviously not enough!"
"Don't start Gary not again i mean it."
Gary stands to his feet. "Or what?"
"STOP IT!" I push in between the two men. "Why do you both keep acting like this? What has happened between the pair of you?"
Mark swallows taking a few steps back. "Nothing."

"Don't play games Mark. There's something or you both wouldn't be fighting every time you speak.. I'm not moving until i get answers."
Chewing on his bottom lip Gary sits on his desk. "Go on Mark. Tell her. Tell her what happened." Mark looks at Gary shaking his head a little, as guilt spreads across his face. I stare long and hard at Mark's face for answers as he bows his head.
"Tell me.....what? Mark?" He doesn't answer his head remains bowed staring at the floor. "Gary?"
Gary takes a few steps towards Mark. "Don't back out now... tell her how you ruined part of my life... tell her!"
"Gary! Just tell me!" I pull him back away from Mark's view. "What on earth happened?"
His breathing increases whilst looking at Mark. "This man. Your 'best mate' was the reason why my ex isn't here anymore."
My eyes widen by Gary's words. "W...what?"
"Now that is not true! I am not to blame for that!" Mark hisses at Gary raising his head. "She came to me for a reason."
Feeling confused i look at the pair of them throwing evil glares at one another. "What do you mean by that Gary? How did he take her from you?"
"She was having an affair... with him... he was one she was with the night of the burglary. He rang me and that's how we met for the first time. If she wasn't with him she'd still be here today... this is all his fault." Tears begin to fill Gary's eyes.
"How dare you?! How fucking dare you blame me! She came to me because she wasn't getting enough attention, because you are too fucking in love with your work to care about anyone else's feelings. As long as your work is ok nothing else matters...isn't that right doctor....?"

I can't believe what i'm hearing. Staring at Mark and Gary words fail to leave my lips. "That is not true! I loved her! I loved her....we were in love."
"Oh yeah? Then why did she cheat? This wouldn't of happened if you gave her what she needed... you killed her... you killed your own girlfriend.... and now... now you've got a new one... how long will it take until it ends the same way...?"
Gary doesn't say a thing. Standing still for a couple of seconds he looks at me under his eyes begin to turn a little red and his lips tremble. "G...Gary?" Nervously i look at him. Without saying a word Gary storms out of the room. "Gary! Gary come back!" Quickly i follow him. He jogs down the corridor to his office before slamming the door shut and locking it behind him.
