Chapter 86

Jon’s laughter died slowly while he looked at the scene before him. Cheyenne was laughing and tried to get away from Richie. But he was just too strong and he kept her in his embrace, tickling her. Richie looked down at Cheyenne’s face and the look made Jon’s heart skip a beat. Love was shining in his eyes. There was no doubt about it. He knew Richie as well as he knew himself. Richie was in love with Cheyenne. His stomach knotted and Richie’s voice played in his mind,

“You don’t deserve her, and I promise you treat her like a whore again and I will take her from you. Do you understand me, Jon?”

A shiver ran down his spine and he knew he better have a good talk with Richie. Cheyenne is his and he will kill anyone trying to take her from him.

Richie lost his grip and Cheyenne moved out of his grasp. Tears were streaming down her face and her cheeks blossomed.

Richie walked forward and she backed off.

“No, Richie please for God’s sake my tummy hurts. STOP IT!”

He suddenly stepped closer and stopped in front of her. He took his hands and wiped away the tears on her cheeks. He turned his hand and looked at it, the smile died on his face.

“You know the last time I saw this, you were bruised and battered. You nearly broke my heart, when I saw you in that bed. But at least today its tears of joy!”

He pulled her in his arms and kissed her on her forehead. She looked up at him and smiled.

“It’s all over now, thanx to you and Jon! You were there for me in my darkest hour. I can see it was quite tough on you. I’ll remember your love and concern for me till the day I die. I don’t know how I survived without you two before. ”

She hugged him , he closed his eyes and hugged her back.

Jon wanted to step in and break the moment but he was frozen on the spot.

“Chey, it was only a pleasure helping you through that! I’ll always be there for you honey. And if Jon gets tired of you I’ll take you off his hands, K bro?” He turned and smiled the old Richie visible in the way he’s eyes sparkled.

‘Yeah, yeah what ever asshole. Don’t hold your breath just yet.” Jon smiled but his smile didn’t reach his eyes. Cheyenne noticed it and knew the old Jon was back. Her heart sank.
