Jack and Martha 4eva Posted August 23, 2006 Report Posted August 23, 2006 Hi guys, sorry I haven't updated for a while, but I've been on holiday, if the next chapter isn't up tommorow, then it will definitely be up on friday (UK time)
Jack and Martha 4eva Posted August 24, 2006 Report Posted August 24, 2006 Right, here it is. Chapter 32 FIVE YEARS LATER "Jodi, Harry, are you ready to go?" Jack yelled up the stairs "Dad, chill, I'm here now, and anyway, what's the rush?" Jodi asked "Well, we're already five minutes late" Jack replied "So, Sarah is always late, and boys are late aswell, so there is no problem" Jodi added "Jodi don't speak to your dad like that" Martha said "Sure, whatever" Jodi said under her breath. "Harry, are you coming or not?" Jack yelled again "Dude, I'm here" Harry said coming down the stairs. Harry was going to stay at his mates house as they were both taking part in a surfing competition tommorow. Jodi was also staying at a friends as she just wanted to be out of the house and away from her parents. "Right, lets go" Jack said "Bye mum" Harry said "Bye Harry, and we'll see you tommorow" Martha replied. She didn't even bother talking to Jodi, as she was out the door and already getting into the car. "See you later babe" Jack added before kissing his wife goodbye and heading out of the door. ***************** Jack had just got back and Charlie, Indi and Lily were all sat at the table eating dinner. "Daddy" Lily called out "Hey sweetie" Jack replied. Lily was a real daddy's girl. "Where are Harry and Jodi?" she asked "They're at their friends houses remeber" Jack answered crouching down to her level "When will they be back?" she asked again "Tommorow, when we go and see Harry surf" Jack replied. As Lily was the youngest, she always looked up to her brothers and sisters, and missed them alot when they weren't there. "It'll be alright, you'll see them soon" Jack added before going to sit down next to Martha. He kissed her on the cheek. "Alright babe?" "Yer, I'm fine thanks, but I'm quite tired" Martha replied "Well, I'll just have to wait on you hand and foot for the rest of the evening then won't I" Jack said "You sure will" Martha added before kissing him again on the lips. In the morning, they didn't have to be up too early as Harry wasn't surfing till mid-afternoon. They were picking Jodi up just before. The kids were quite tired as they had been running around all day, they needed an early night. **************** In the morning, they were all sat round the table. Jack had let Martha have a lie in, as she was still quite tired, which left him in charge of breakfast. Just then Martha came down the stairs. "Do you kids want to go to the diner for breakfast?" she asked, as neither her or Jack felt like cooking. "Yer, can we?" Charlie replied "Course we can, we don't go there for breakfast very often" Martha replied. The kids were changed and ready to go in five minutes, so they set off pretty quickly. Jack and Martha walked hand in hand down the beach as the kids ran off and messed around. They got there pretty quick. "Hey guys, have you come for breakfast?" Irene asked "We sure have" Indi replied. "Go and sit down over there" Jack said pointing to a table. They all ran over immeadiately. "We didn't really feel like cooking anything this morning for them, so we thought we'd let you do it for them" Martha joked "Sure love, I'll be over in a minute to take your order" Irene said before heading back into the kitchen to Colleen who was making a fuss over something. "Right kids, what do you want?" Jack asked "Pancakes" Charlie said "Pancakes" Indi replied "And what about you Lily?" Martha asked "Um... can I have pancaked aswell" she answered "Course you can" Martha said. Irene noted all of this down and went into the kitchen to start cooking them. Martha and Jack were just having a toastie. **************** After the kids had finished their breakfast, they all went to go and get Jodi. Harry was surfing pretty soon, and was already down on the beach with his mate. Jodi was ready to go when they got there, as she would hate to miss Harry in any competition. They were really close. Harry was one of the best surfers in the area, and was one of the favourites to win. After picking up Jodi, they just about got there in time to see Harry in the water. He was going great. Indi and Lily weren't really interested in any of this and went down to play in the sand. Charlie on the other hand was engrossed in it all. He was also a keen surfer and really looked up to Harry. Charlie was a great surfer aswell and always went out with Harry after school and at the weekends. He had done a few competitions and won two of them. Soon the competition was over and they were about to announce the winners. "And, in first place, by quite a margin is, Harry Holden" the commentator said. Harry went up to recieve his prize and then went straight over to Jack to show him what he had recieved. "Well done mate, I always knew that you would win" Jack said to him "Thanks dad" Harry replied I know it's short but I'm going out.
Tasha Posted August 25, 2006 Report Posted August 25, 2006 Aww...great chapter. I hope Martha's alright. Please update soon
amz89 Posted August 27, 2006 Report Posted August 27, 2006 Please post again soon!! So how old are the holden clan now??
Jack and Martha 4eva Posted August 28, 2006 Report Posted August 28, 2006 In answer to your question the holden clan are, Harry and Jodi-11 yrs old, Charlie-9 years old, Indi-7 years old and Lily-5 years old. Martha is 32 and Jack is 35. Chapter 33 Jack had just had been given a new cop to work with. But he wasn't really new. He had been stationed there before and had come back to fulfill something that he hadn't managed to do before. COREY. He was back, and after trying to poison Irene, he was back to get Martha, the girl he wanted, and if he couldn't have her then nobody could. Jack was shocked to see him, but Corey acted like he was a different person. He was kind and caring, and always put other people before himself. He wanted to fool Jack, he wanted to fool everybody, just so that he could get Martha. Nobody else, he didn't want her and Jack's kids, just Martha. Jack and Corey were just in the station, they were both on their lunch break. "So Jack, how are things with Martha?" Corey asked trying to get as much information as possible. "Yer, they're great, we've been married fourteen years now" Jack replied "You're married" Corey said shocked "Yep, and we have five beautiful children together" Jack added "Children, you must be pretty close to look after five kids" Corey replied reminding himself that he couldn't make it too obvious that he didn't think that they were really close. "We are, we've been through so much together, nothing could tear us apart" Jack replied, "We'll have to see about that won't we" Corey said to himself under his breath. "Sorry, Corey what was that?" Jack asked as he couldn't quite hear what Corey had said "Oh, nothing, just talking to myself" Corey replied. "Whatever you say mate" Jack said before getting up and heading off for his next shift. Corey and Jack were finishing at the same time and Corey had decided that he would follow Jack home and just check out where he and Martha lived. ***************** It was the end of both of their shifts, Jack had finished slightly earlier, which was perfect as it would give Corey a chance to follow without being seen. Corey did as he planned and followed Jack. Jack disappeared into the driveway. The electric gates, were taking a while to open, so Corey had to slow down. Jack drove in just in time. Corey managed to get a good look at the type of place they lived in. "Well, well, well, I didn't expect them to be this rich" Corey said to himself before carrying on down the road towards the surf club. He had decided that he would have a drink in there, as he might bump into Martha. He could also show the locals that he had supposedly changed for the better. ***************** Martha had decided that she didn't feel like cooking tonight, and she knew that Jack wouldn't either, so they were all going to go down to Noah's. Jack had told Martha that Corey was back, and she didn't seem to phased by it. She believed Jack when he said that he had changed. As Martha and Jack drove into the car park next to the Surf Club, Jack noticed Corey's car. "Martha, we can go somewhere else if you want" Jack said "No, why should I let him run my life and control where I go" Martha replied in a stubborn voice "Fine, the Surf Club it is then" Jack added before stopping the car and gettiing out. The kids were already running inside, but neither of them minded as Beth was on her shift and she would keep an eye on them. Jack waited for Martha before taking her hand and squeezing it tightly. He could tell that Martha was nervous about seeing Corey for the first time since the incident with Irene. Martha's grip tightened as they got closer to the door. Jack pulled her into a hug. "Martha, I would never let him hurt you again" Jack whispered in her ear reasurringly. Martha didn't reply, just stood there holding onto Jack. "We don't have to go in" Jack said again "No Jack, I have to face up to him, and like I said, I can't let him run our lives" Martha replied before kissing him on the lips, taking his hand and walking into the surf club. The kids were already sat down at a table. Beth was talking to them and asking what they wanted to drink. Corey was sitting quite close, but he was talking to some pretty blonde girl. He wasn't really paying attention to the converstion, but was staring over to where Jack and Martha were. ***************** The kids were enjoying themselves, and getting alot of attention from Beth. This gave Martha and Jack the chance to relax, they didn't really have a moment to themselves at home, so it was nice. But Jack could tell that Martha was still on edge, even though she wouldn't admit it. He didn't even bother suggesting going to the diner, as he knew that answer he'd get. Corey then came over. "Alright Jack?" he asked "Yer I'm fine thanks" Jack replied "How about you Martha, long time no see" Corey added "Oh, yer I'm good, been keepin myself busy" Martha said looking over towards that kids. "Yer, I can see that" Corey said, "Do you mind if I come and join you, it would be nice to catch up" "Erm, sure why not" Martha said, Corey went off to get another beer. "Martha are you sure?" Jack asked her quietly "Jack, I have to do this, besides I couldn't exactly say no could I" Martha replied "Suppose not" Jack said before pulling Martha into a hug. ***************** Jack and Martha just chatted away to Corey, but they soon realised that they had to go as it was getting late. Martha had relaxed more as the evening went on. She had become her normal self. Corey picked up on this, and realised that his plan was moving faster than he had expected. Tommorow would be the perfect day to start some action, as Jack was working. There wasn't going to be a better oppurtunity. PREVIEW What does Corey have in store for Jack and Martha?
