Chapter 116: Danger-Ace, In My Arms
Chance made her lie on his arm and brought her closer to him, hugging her waist with his free hand.
Samantha never felt discomfort with his touch, she rather felt warmth in his arms. She hugged him back and closed her eyes.
"Are you sleepy?" He asked her but there was no reply from Samantha.
Chance leaned back a little to look at her face. Samantha had her eyes closed and was breathing softly.
Chance smiled to see her falling asleep so soon. He kissed her forehead and cuddled her.
'Can't believe Danger-Ace is lying in my arms' He thought to himself and slept with a smile on his face.
Next day the seven people, went for an early morning trek and by the time they were back, they were all tired.
After freshening up, they all again met for the breakfast.
"Chance, this trip was really fun. Thank you so much for planning this" Mia looked very cheerful.
"How can this trip not be fun for you? After all our man, proposed to you" Jack exclaimed and patted David on the shoulder.
"Yeah, finally I did. What about you Jack? When are you going to ask Abigail for marriage?" David teased his friends, giving them no face.
Abigail was chill about it and didn't mind, Jack too was casual, he said, "When Abi would give me more importance than her career"
Abigail glared at him, "I work for NYPD, it is a tough job, I can't slack around"
"Yes, you are the only one with a tough job. We are doing unimportant things in life." He smiled at her but it was evident there was some trouble going on in their relationship.
"I never said that" Abigail tried to explain herself.
"That's the thing Abi, you never say it, you just show it in your actions" Jack was not in the mood to back down.
"Let's talk after going back home. Don't spoil other people's mood" Abigail was controlling her anger as she was very pissed.
"Yeah, after all you are the only one who cares about other people's mood"
"Jack, enough" Abigail warned him.
"Whatever" Jack just rolled his eyes and got up from there, he walked away from the middle of his breakfast.
"I'll check on him" Chance excused himself and went to talk to Jack.
"Hey, Jack" Chance called him while chasing the angry man.
"Chance, bro, leave me alone for some time" Jack was very annoyed right now.
"Jack, if there is a problem, at least talk it out dude, don't keep it all inside" Chance didn't walk away and stayed there.
"What is the point in talking, the truth is anyway not going to come out and no one is going to believe me." Jack was very frustrated and he shouted at Chance.
"What happened Jack?" Chance was concerned about him.
"You really want to know, Chance?" Jack questioned him.
"Sure"
"Abigail is cheating on me with someone" Jack finally said what he was supressing in his heart for a long time.
"What nonsense? She would never"
"See, you won't believe me" Jack frustratedly shouted at him.
"Okay, I am sorry. Can I at least know why you are accusing of her something so serious?" Chance wanted to hear the whole story before jumping on to conclusions.
"For the last few days, she has been coming home late. After I fall asleep, she keeps messaging someone on phone and one day when I called her at night as she was still not home, a guy answered her phone, Abigail shouted on him and he immediately cut it" Jack explained.
"Are you serious, Jack?" A voice was heard from behind and the two men turned around to see Abigail standing there in shock, she almost had tears in her eyes.
Earlier, after Jack left in anger, Abigail couldn't ignore it and after a few seconds she too followed them and heard what Jack said.
Jack looked away when he saw Abigail standing there.
Chance decided to give them some space and was about to walk away when Jack stopped him, "Why are you walking away? She cheated on me; she should be ashamed"
"Jack, is that why for the last few days, you were avoiding me?" Abigail questioned him but Jack did not respond.
She held his shoulders and turned him around to face her, "You really think I would cheat on you?"
"Then explain yourself, you just heard me" Jack was very angry but there was pain in his eyes, which really hurt Abigail.
"Come here with me" Abigail dragged Jack with her and they left.
Chance didn't follow them and joined his friends.
"Is the fight serious between them?" David asked Chance who shook his head, "No, everything is fine"
Abigail and Jack who were gone, still didn't join them. The five people completed their breakfast and waited for their two other friends and it was almost thirty minutes and still they didn't come.
"Okay, I am getting worried now" David said and stood up from his seat, "I'll check on them"
"Hmm, I'll come with you" Chance too was concerned about them.
The two then headed towards the tents as earlier that's where Abigail and Jack went to.
David and Chance first went to Jack's tent and there was no one there, worriedly they went to Abigail's tent and when they reached there, they heard some noises, first they got even more worried and the next second, realization was drawn on them.
Reflexively, the two men took a step back.
"I can't believe, after a fight like that, they are having sex" Chance helplessly shook his head.
"God, weirdos, let's go" David suggested and the two men walked away from there as fast as they could.
After they reached the three women sitting there in silence, Mia asked them, "Abi and Jack are fine?" Worry was painted on her face.
"They are more than fine" Chance sarcastically replied.
After a while Jack and Abigail joined them as if nothing happened, but they were in good moods.
"You two fine?" Carol asked them worriedly.
"Never been better" Jack smiled at her.
Chance helplessly shook his head, trying hard to not judge his friends.
"Come, let's go for a smoke" David suggested so Chance and Jack went with him.
Once they ensured they were far from the girls, Chance punched Jack in the stomach, "You bastard, earlier you scared the shit out of me. I thought my best friends are going to break up and then you have sex"
"Woah, how do you know we had sex?" Jack suspiciously looked at Chance who rolled his eyes at him.
"If you two are this loud, then anyone would know" David taunted him.
Jack laughed and explained, "Earlier, I accused Abi for cheating on me but later she showed me proof that she was coming home late, because she was working extra hours to earn some extra bucks." Then Jack showed them something on his phone which surprised Chance and David.
"Wait, this is the bike you have been wanting to buy, right?" David asked Jack who nodded his head.
"She had been planning to surprise me with this bike, so she was acting sneakily. The guy who answered her phone was the bike dealer, she was checking the bike when her phone rang so he answered it for her as it can be from the police department, I misunderstood her reaction." Jack informed them and he looked really relieved.
"I knew you were overreacting" Chance again punched his friend.
"Sorry dude, I was really upset when I thought of, she cheating on me but Abi just proved how much she loves me"
"By letting you bang her?" Chance sarcastically questioned him and laughed
"No dude, by buying this bike for me. I mean her efforts and her plan, it is all so awesome, I really want to do something for her too" Jack was really relieved and was feeling better after knowing Abigail was not cheating on him.
"Ask her for marriage, she too will be very happy" David seriously made this suggestion.
"Why? You jumped in the well so you want others to jump in with you?" Chance taunted David.
"Hey, you were planning to propose to a woman you just met, do you have the right to say anything?" Jack taunted Chance who was speechless as he was right.
"Anyway, I am glad, you two sorted out everything" Chance smiled.
The three men then joined the four women and after spending some time around this place, they all headed back to the main city.
Carol this time traveled with the four people in their car and didn't tag along with Samantha and Chance.
"I hope you had fun on this trip" Chance asked Samantha who was looking out at the beautiful view outside.
"Yes, I did. I would have gone crazy with you not around me for two days" She honestly shared her feelings.
