《STORM 4 | Josh Christopher》Chapter 62

Storm's POV
"I forgot about this place" I said chuckling as we got out of the car. We walked to the wooden fence and I leaned on it while he sits on top of it.
"I was here this morning" Josh says and looks towards the view. I closed my eyes and breathed in the fresh air. This place was always so calming.
"Josh we need to talk" I said looking down as I fiddled with my nails.
"We do, and I'll go first" He says. He pushed his glasses up on his face and looks straight.
"Storm. What you said didn't only hurt my feelings, but made me question a lot of things. It made me question how you look at me, it made me question all the things we've been through, and it especially made me question our relationship" He started. I stayed quiet and continued to listen.
"I feel like, no matter how hard I try, I'm not good enough for you and I don't do enough for you. I understand the pain and anger I caused you in the past and I'm sorry for it. But I'm trying to forget that side of me and the things that has happened. But it's hard when you keep throwing it at me and making assumptions about me all the time. Storm I'm tired of it" He says looking at me.
"Like I don't know how much times I have to say sorry or show you that I will never be that kind of person again. And I know things are hard on you and it has been for a while. But I'm trying, I'm trying to help you, I'm trying to help you get through this and I want you to be happy again" He says. I bite my lip as I felt my eyes well up with tears.
"Josh, I'm sorry that I made you feel like you weren't enough. You are more then enough and you do so much for me. You go over and beyond for me even when you don't have to. What I said was horrible and I didn't mean any of it" I said to him. He chuckles and looks down.
"You must've meant something Storm. Explain yourself" He says.
"The way how you made me feel 7 years ago was the worst I've ever felt in my life. Even though we got past the situation and moved on from it, a small part of me thinks, if you did it before you can do it again. I've learned to trust you again Josh, more then I have before. It's just..." I took a small pause as I felt myself about to cry.

"After Melo died, I felt low again. I felt that same feeling I had when you left me. So when you were out doing whatever you were doing, and being around Soul, that feeling started to come back again. The feeling of being hurt again Josh. And again, it doesn't help that so much people look down on me and everywhere I go I'm disgusted and hated on. This all takes a toll on me and I just feel like my time is running out" I said to him.
"You do these little things where your half honest with me and you've been doing it for years. You tell me half the truth until it's time to say the full truth. Every situation we had started off like that and it gets worse every time. I don't want to keep doing this Josh" I said sighing. He frowns and fiddles with his fingers.
"That's something I need to work on and I will fix that issue. I don't like putting you in a position that makes you feel like that Storm. But at the same time, you don't tell me the truth at all. In fact, you don't tell me anything. You hide so much from me Storm, I sometimes ask myself if I still know you" He says and I look at him.
"What do you mean?" I asked him.
"I knew all sides of you Storm until Melo died. After you shut down, you came back and I had to ask myself, who is this?" He says.
"Josh I'm still me and will always be me" I told him and he shakes his head.
"Situations change people Storm. Losing Melo changed you and it wasn't a good change" He says. I stayed silent. He was right, losing Melo did change me in a way.
"I promise to be more open and honest with you from now on" I said to him and he nods. It's quiet for a little bit and all you hear is the whistling of the wind and the trees blowing.
"Storm, do I make you happy?" He asks me. I looked at him as he looked back at me.
"Yes Josh, you make very happy. Do I make you happy?" I asked him.
"I'm my happiest when I'm around you" He smiles, which caused me to smile back at him.
"Do you trust me?" I asked him.

"Yes, do you trust me?" He asks me.
"Yes I do. Do you love me?" I asked him.
"I could never stop loving you even if I wanted to" He says and we started to laugh.
"Do you love me Storm?" He asks me. I looked at him and grabbed a hold of his hand.
"More then you'll ever know" I said and he started smiling.
"Let's pause this conversation. We need to talk about the situation with the kids" He says. Ah shit!
"O-Ok" I said looking away. How are we supposed to talk about this if I can't really answer all of his questions. Yea this situation is about to get worse. It was fun while it lasted.
"Cali and D are we really the parents of Lola and the twins?" He asks me.
"Yea, that's why she's been after me. She hired someone to throw that brick at me at our house but the person missed" I told him and his eyes widen.
"The detective told you all that?" He asks.
"No, only the window part" I said.
"So then, how do we know forsure that D is involved?" He asks looking at me. I start playing with bracelet and avoided eye contact.
"I just do. But is it true that you didn't know?" I asked him.
"No Storm I didn't know. It still shocks me that you think I'd hide something like this from you. Do you know how serious this is?" He asks me.
"Yes I know how serious this is Josh. We are the reason why their father is gone, permanently" I said shaking my head.
"How'd you find out?" He asks. The one question I hope he wouldn't ask.
"Josh I-"
"How'd you find out Storm?" He asks again.
"I can't tell you" I said looking down. He groans and throws his arms up.
"Did we not just talk about being open and honest with each other" He says.
"Yes but this is something I just can't tell you" I said shrugging. I'm sorry Josh.
"Are you serious right now?" He asks me.
"Josh I'm sorry. I promised that I wouldn't say anything to anyone" I said to him.
"I'm not just anyway, I'm your husband Storm. We've been together for years" He says. I've known Star and Heaven my whole life...and I can't tell them either.
"Josh..." I said frowning. He looked at me and nods. He turns his head and I lean over to see his eyes tear up. Josh...
"You know, I thought this could work. I thought we could be together and raise our family happily but I thought wrong. I planned a whole life with you Storm, where our relationship worked. But yet you make it difficult" He says.
"Josh, you can't be upset at me right now. I really want to tell you but I just can't" I told him as tears fall from my eyes.
I'm not making the same mistake from last time. Last time I said what was going on and people got hurt and I lost Melo. If I say something, people are gonna get hurt again and I can't let that happen. If I keep this to myself, no one will get hurt. But me.
"What else are you hiding from me- you know what? It doesn't matter. You're not gonna tell me anyways" He shrugs and gets off of the fence.
"Josh I'm sorry" I said grabbing his arm but he shrugs me off.
"Let's take a break Storm. Let's spilt up until you're ready to talk and discuss this situation about our children and their crazy ass birth parents " He says. Is he serious? I sniffled as I made my way in front of him. I looked at him as tears rolled down his face. It breaks my heart to see him like this.
"Josh, I don't expect you to understand. But this is something I have to handle on my own and I can't speak about it" I told him.
"Why do you always have to do everything alone? I'm here for you Storm. Let me in, let me be here for you" He begs.
"This is something else you can't be apart of" I told him.
"If I can't be apart of anything then what's the point of being together?" He asks me. Did you hear that? How my heart just broke?
"What are you trying to say?" I asked him.
"Let's get a divorce"

The Forgotten Hero
Long ago, in the world of Thyne, the Alliance of the Free Races, a name they had given themselves, summoned a hundred humans from another dimension. Praised as heroes by the people, they rejoiced that they had been able to acquire pure, mana deficient humans that wanted to aid them in their time of need, ignoring the black, archaic slave collars around their necks or the depressed, almost hate-filled expressions that they received when interacting with them. After Ten years of bloody war, the dark races were pushed back deep into their territories. Both sides were near breaking point and desperate to end the war once and for all. In a bargain, the twelve surviving heroes launched a high-risk mission, utilising advanced tactics from their home world to kill the Demon Lord. In exchange, they would be sent home, along with the magically preserved corpses of their comrades, though in truth, they knew that even if they returned, they would never be the same. Legends say that, upon ambushing the Demon Lord in his castle, they finally understood the plight of the world, and in the last act of heroism, sacrificed their lives, sealing him in an eternal prison so his essence would not be able to create another. With the loss of the Demon Lord, and no chance for another to be born, the dark races quickly surrendered and the free races celebrated, honouring the noble sacrifice of the heroes before quickly forgetting about them as they returned to their everyday lives. However, legends are rarely truthful, embellished by the victors in order to earn praise as well as hide the less desirable aspects of their deeds. Trapped in the Demon Lord's throne room inside the Demonic Palace, which even taking a single step on its desecrated grounds is punished by death, two figures remain motionless. They had long run out of insults and threats to trade and now they waited. For what, not even the Gods knew.
