They fell in love while he was in jail, over the phone. It wasn't that they hadn't already loved each other, just that they spoke it when he was in jail. Lily would have done anything to get Hunter out but there was a 10,000 cash only bond and her hands were tied. Hunter understood. He knew Lily would stand by him through just about anything he could throw at her.She loved Hunter with all her heart. She remembered their first meeting--opening day of trout season. She noticed him fishing near where she was and later in line to claim a prize, they spoke to compliment each other's catches. They traded names and numbers right away; they felt an instant attraction. Their love had blossomed slowly but beautifully and now, now Lily was going to give birth! A home birth, too, all natural, in the water, artesian water. They swam daily for pleasure and exercise, the river being their second home, their precious and cozy schoolbuses being their first.
Lily, what are you thinking about? Hunter asked out of his usual curiosity. Nothing much, just about how it was for me when you were in jail. How you'd call me collect twelve times a day just to say hello. I love you very much, Lily, you'd say.
to be continued....this was just a freewriting trying to get back into the new story....
