Chapter 17: John
John was angry that Alex had gotten away with raping Kate. He wanted to kill him but knew that he was better than Alex. It also made John mad to know that his Aunt and Uncle thought it was Kate being a witch and not Alex's fault for what happened. James tried to talk to John's Aunt and Uncle.
John went to visit Kate. "How are you doing?" John asked. "I'm alright but I am sorry to hear about your Aunt and Uncle. I did not mean to cause so many problems for you," Kate replied. "Kate, you haven't caused any problems for me, it has been Alex that has caused the problems for us," John stated. "I know, but I let my guard down and you warned me, but I didn't listen," Kate declared. "You can't blame yourself; you are a good person. If anyone is to blame, it's me. I should have taken better care of you," John expressed sadly. "John don't blame yourself; we both must be careful who we trust," Kate replied. "I agree," John replied. Kate gave herself to John and they lay in bed until the sunset.
The Mississippi police banned Alex, Charles, Alex's mother from coming into the State which made John feel like some justice had being done. The only problem left was to get Alex to sign the divorce papers; John wished he knew what to do because he really loved Kate.
Kate wasn't feeling well so she went to the doctor and when she returned looking sad, she talked to John. "What is the matter, Kate?" John asked. "I'm pregnant with Alex's baby," Kate replied sadly. "Are you sure it is his?" John asked. "Yes, I am, but I wish the baby was yours," Kate started crying hard. "It is going to be alright Kate, I love you and I will love this baby as it was my own," John comforted. Kate hugged John as relieve washed over her.
James:
James still planned to come between Kate and John, and he hated how much Alex had hurt Kate. James went about trying to earn the trust of Kate and John and think he made headway when he helped John to find Kate.
James went to talk to Jill.
"Have you been saying bad things to my parents about Kate," James asked Jill. "Yes, I have, I told them that Kate slept with you and Alex behind John's back. Your parents are not telling John I have been telling them things about Kate. Your parents are hoping John will marry me," Jill replied.
Jill:
Jill and James spent the night together. Jill couldn't wait to have John in her bed, she didn't care who Kate ended up with as long as she had John for herself. As much as Jill thought about a plan to break up John and Kate, she just couldn't think of what to do. James was taking a shower and Jill was lying in bed thinking. You know even if we break Kate and John up, you're still are going to have problems with Alex," Jill stated. "I know, but Kate hates Alex and is trying to divorce him so I still have a chance," James replied.
Alex:
Alex couldn't believe he had lost Kate; she wouldn't even answer his phone calls. He wanted his wife back but knew he had to earn her love. Since Alex had recorded himself and Kate making love, he posted the video on YouTube and couldn't believe how many views he had gotten. Alex believed that once Kate and John knew about the YouTube video, it would break them up. He figured that once John saw the video, he would become angry and break up with Kate. Alex also hoped James would lose interest in Kate once he saw the video.
