Starting Over (Closed)

-Terry smiled to Callie.-"I love it your right."-he kissed her back and broke the kiss as he took the hose and sprayed her and began to rinse him self off as he chuckled-
 
She giggled as he sprayed her, "Brat" she accused and started to climb out of the shower, " I need to call the DR and see about that extra time off and it's way past time I took some pain meds you kisses only work so long." She gave him a teasing smile knowing he would be right behind her.
 
-Terry helped her dress and chuckled at her comment. Once they were both dressed Terry and Callie walked down to find Cora making something.-"What are you making sis?"-he chuckled looking at Callie helping her down the stairs.-
 
"Lunch" Cora responded "yall took a really long time talking and now it's lunch time."

"I need to make a call I'll be right back." Giving Terry a quick kiss she left the room to make the call for the extra time off and find her pills.
 
-Terry helped Cora set the table and bring the drinks out as Terry sighed and looked to Cora.-"Me and Callie are hitting it off."
 
Cora

"You say it like it's a bad thing Terry what's wrong?" Cora asked placing a hand on his shoulder.
 
-Terry looked to Cora.-"I am just scared i will make her unhappy....I want to be here for her...and not let her down....It has been a while since my last gf and she was just unpleaseable sometimes."
 
Cora

"That's your problem right there Terry. Callie isn't her you can't compare the two how would you feel if everytime you got made Callie got scared you where going to hit her? How would you feel if she kept expecting you to be like James? I would push you away Terry. I am telling you right now do NOT do that to Callie or I might kill you myself." Cora said with a resounding finality.
 
-Terry hugged his sister and held her tight.-"You always been my reasoning voice despite your younger."-Terry said and held her a moment longer before letting go.-"I guess....I just haven't gotten over it. I will though."
 
Cora

"You better make it fast cause she just left James and you left old girl what a year ago? Get your shit together Terry." Cora demanded.
 
-Terry looked to her.-"Relax I will.."-he sighed walking away a moment to wash his face he looked in the mirror telling him self he would be ok.-
 
Callie had over heard the converstaion between brother and sister by accident she had just finished to get the time off to go stay with Terry and she had found her pills and was heading for a drink when she heard their conversation. She was unsure now rather or not she would leave with him. He thought she would betray him he didn't trust her at all. Putting on a fake smile she walked into the kitchen.

"Hey Cora." She said picking up a glass of water to swallow her pills with she knew she would have time to eat before the pills made her drosey and she could go to sleep and escape this new pain for a while but until then she had to eat and make normal. Like her heart wasn't breaking she didn't say a word to Terry when he came to sit down beside her.
 
-Terry looked to her and gently took her hand reassuring her he was there for her. From her behavior she herd him and he need to apologize.-"After we eat I want to talk to you about something."-he said in a small gulp before he let go of her hand to take a sip of some juice.-
 
Callie shrugged, "Sure but I'll need a nap soon after I already took my meds." with that she turned back to her lunch and ate the table was ingulfed in a tense silence. When they were finished. Callie rose looked at him without a word left the room to try to make it up the stairs where they could talk and she could nap. She wished she wasn't so invaild at the moment maybe then she wouldn't feel out of control.
 
-Terry looked to Cora and nods as they walked up stairs together and helped her sit on the bed he looked to her.-"I wanna be very straight with you....I...am afraid....your my first relationship in quiet a few years.....I just do not want to lose you...i will do everything i can to make you happy....If...I do anything that up sets you let me know..."-he said and caressed her hand.-"I...will understand anything you are afraid of or are angry about. Please forgive me for my words before."
 
Callie looked at him hurt showing in her eyes, "YOu know I heard. It's just I am taking a big risk trusting another man.... any man and to find out the one I decide to trust doesn't trust me." She turned her face away choking on the words.
 
-Terry looked to her.-"It's more i....."-His hand calmly gripped her palm and smiled.-"I will get over it....i just need you to stand by me...i promise you a couple days together that won't be a issue."-Terry gently turned her head to look at him.-"Please...."
 
"I'm scared too Terry." She sighed looking up at him. "I'm not scared you'll ever hit me or anything like that. I've loved you forever Terry and I'm scared I'm too broken for you now."
 
-Terry had to chuckle at his words next.-"I like broken treasure didn't my sister tell you i wanted to be a archeologist."-he smiled and kissed her lips a moment and pulled back.-"I will check on you when you wake we will get going ok?"-he smiled as he left her and went to Cora.-"I know i will change once i spend a few days with her."
 
Callie was a little more at ease and quickly went to sleep. She didn't sleep well though her dreams haunted with James hunting her down and Terry throwing her at him saying she was beyond repair and couldn't love her.

Callie bolted up right in the bed scream tears running down her face as she quickly reached for Terry only to notice he wasn't there and in a panic still half in the dream began screaming for him.
 
-Cora and Terry herd the noise as Terry rushed up stairs and looked around and hugged her close.-"It's ok It's ok i am here for you no worry."-he said as he pet her hair gently he sighed gently rocking her.-"Want me to be here while you rest?"
 
Callie couldn't respond she clung to him her nails digging into his to back as terror racked through her her voice trembling as she pleaded with im. "Please don't throw me back at him I'm fixable I promise. I'll do anything just don't let him get me again Please don't give me up."

Tears where streaking down her face.
 
-Terry gently stroked her hair and rocked her.-"No one is going to get you...I am going to polish you and fix you up to make you look like knew...I never throw away broken treasure i fix them."-he smiled as he laid down with her gently looking at her eyes holding her close.-"Relax i am with you...I am not letting you go."
 
Callie nodded and began calming down sinking into his arms and relaxing. She snuggled closer and nuzzled against his neck before she passed back out into a deep peaceful sleep.

Cora

Cora was standing at the door and shook her head "Even in her sleep she knows when your not there. When she is overcome with fear it's you she calls for. Your a lucky man to have her trust you some much and need you. You keep the boogie man away for her. Amazing."
 
-Terry smiled and winked to her.-"Hey...i did the same for you and i still will....your my little sister Cora...nothing will change that."
