Chapter 15

It was the longest day of her life, and Marina was glad to see the end of it. Mason and Danny were exhausted, but neither of them seemed distraught over the day’s events. Mason was glad to see Danny, and they quietly played in the living room while James had a pizza delivered for supper. The boys ate and were both bathed and in bed. Marina noticed James had been extremely quiet since they arrived home. He was blaming himself and she didn’t know how to make him understand none of it was his fault.

The rain started just after the kids went to bed, and she stood in the kitchen staring out through the window. The fog had rolled in as well, and she could no longer see the ocean because it was so thick. She sensed him before he even touched her, and when he wrapped his arms around her she leaned against his body. His hug enveloped her like a blanket keeping her safe and warm. James rested his chin on her head as they watched the fog slowly swallow up the garden and the rain ease into a gentle mist.

“You must be exhausted.” He pressed his lips to her temple.

“Not really. Relieved Danny is safe and in his bed and that he doesn’t seem bothered by what happened today.” Marina sighed when he squeezed her against him.

“I think I finally convinced Mrs. Ray none of this was her fault, and Keith is still trying to calm Trunk down,” he said.

“I’m glad, but are you convinced it wasn’t your fault either?” Marina asked.

She heard him swallow. “I’m trying and Mrs. Ray made me agree that it wasn’t my fault either,” he said. “She said, now Jimmy it’s not your fault, so I’ll believe it’s not my fault, if you believe it’s not yours.” James tried to mimic Mary’s voice.

Marina giggled because he sounded so weird but also the name Mary called him always struck her funny. “You know women are always right...Jimmy.”

“Funny girl.” James tickled her ribs, and she wiggled to escape his grasp. She managed to get away and ran out of the kitchen, but stopped short when Stephanie burst through the front door. Marina froze for a moment and then wrapped her arms around her sister.

“Are we playing tag?” Stephanie teased.

“No. She’s running from her payback for calling me Jimmy.” James stood in the entrance of the kitchen with his arms folded across his chest and that sexy grin lit up his face.

“Aww Jimmy, what’s wrong with that?” John laughed.

“Nothing wrong with it, Johnny.” Marina teased her brother-in-law.

“Cora calls him that too.” Stephanie giggled. The names just didn’t suit the two tall muscular men. Johnny and Jimmy reminded her of little boys and those two men were definitely not boys.

“Coffee, anyone?” James was obviously trying to change the subject and Marina nudged Stephanie with her elbow.

“Sounds great but I’ll have tea... Jimmy.” Marina said as Stephanie stifled a giggle.

“You’re asking for it, little girl.” James pointed his finger at her as he disappeared into the kitchen with John behind him.
