My Captain

No More

I woke the next morning still wrapped up in William’s arms
It felt so right lying there with him, so safe and natural
I wrapped my arms tighter around his torso and snuggled my face into his chest
I felt his arms tighten around me and he kissed my hair
“Good morning my angel”
“Good morning, did that really happen again?”
“Yes” William answered laughing, “And I loved every last second of it”
“Me to. I’ve never seen you like that before, so much lust in your eyes, you just let lust completely took over you”
“It’s what you do to me darling, I don’t know how I have managed to contain it for all these years”
We lay there most of the day, having each other over and over again.
I got up mid-afternoon and went into the kitchen
I picked up the post and made a pot of tea
Sitting at the dinner table, I started to open the mail
Half way through the pile, there was a letter that looked official
My hands started to shake, “not one of those” I thought as I started to open the envelope

Mrs Nicholls
We regret to inform you that your husband Captain James Nicholls was injured in action this morning
We have however good news, we will be sending your husband home to recover.
He shall be home within 1 day of you receiving this letter.
Please note that we will need him back in action once he is well enough to fight
Sgt Jones

I sat there with the letter in complete shock
James is coming home was all I could think
I jumped when William came up behind me and place a kiss on the left side of my neck
“What’s wrong?” he asked when he felt me flinch
“James is coming home”
I handed William the letter
I looked at him as he read it
“What are we going to do?” William asked with a look of worry in his eye, “He won’t like the fact that we have been seeing so much of each other, he won’t like it even more that we have been sleeping together either”
“I don’t know William; all I know is that I am James’s wife. It is my duty to look after him, and forget about us”
“You can’t just forget about us, I love you Dawn, I have waited too long to be with you”
“I know William, but I have to put it down to moments of weakness. I know it hurts to hear this, but I told you before, its James, it will always be James, no matter what. Even if James died, he will always be my first, first love, husband, first everything”
William looked at me with tears in his eyes, “maybe I should leave and not come back?”
“William I never said that, but if it helps you, then do that”
William turned and left the room, I could hear him moving around upstairs.
“I haven’t left any evidence” he said as he left, slamming the door behind him
I sat there trying to take everything in
I’d had an affair, and James was coming home injured
Guilt took over and I burst into tears
How could I of done this to James
Still crying, I got up and started to get things ready for James’s return
