JOSH AND DONNA’S CONDO
DONNA’S POV

I enter the bedroom and go in search of the missing file. Be me me I hear the closet door open. I spin around.

“Hello Donnatella.”

“Jason. What are you doing here? How did you find me?”

“I’ve come to take you home, where you belong.” I discreetly check to make sure I still have my panic button in my pocket.

“I am home, THIS is where I belong.” I edge towards the door.

“YOU belong with ME.” That’s it I push the button as hard as I can. Lucy is waiting at the entrance downstairs; she should be up here in two minutes.

“Okay, you’re leaving NOW. I have a secret service agent who should be here any minute to arrest you if you don’t leave. I don’t love you, I haven’t for five years. So just go!!”

“I’m not leaving without you. You promised to marry me so that’s what you’re going to do.” Just then I hear the front door burst open but before I can run Jason grabs me by the waist and places a knife to my throat. He bends to whisper in my ear.

“We going to go now and if they try to stop us I’ll slit your throat.” I can hear agents shouting orders as we move to the living room.

ROOSEVELT ROOM
JOSH’S POV

I’m in a meeting with Andy Wyatt about mandatory minimums in drug sentencing when agents burst in and secure the room. I look around the room to find Tom the agent assigned to me.

“What’s going on Tom?”

“Miss Moss’ panic button was pressed. Agents have been sent as back up, the first family and yourself are being secured.”

“Oh my God.” Donna’s pressed her button. The skinheads have got her. I can’t loose her. I can’t live without her.

I suddenly feel someone’s arm wrap around me and hold me tight.

“Its okay. Donna will be all right. You two have been through too much already for anything bad to happ I I look at Andy.

“God I hope your right.”

DONNA’S POV

As soon as we enter the room all the agents point their guns at Jason’s head and start shouting to let me go.

“SHE GOES WHERE I GO! NOW MOVE OUT OF THE WAY.” Before I know it one of the agents to my right has fired their gun and Jason is lying on the floor with blood purring from his head. Lucy pushes me out of the condo and into a waiting car.

“Are you alright? Are you injured?”

“No Lucy, I’m Okay. I just want to see Josh.”

“We’re heading to the White House. You’ll be able to see him once we get there.”

“Lucy, is he dead? Is Jason dead?

“I really don’t know, but to be honest it doesn’t look good.”

JOSH’S POV

Tom suddenly is contacted on his radio.

“We have an all clear. Mr Lyman, the President would like to see you in the Oval Office.”

“Okay. Would you excuse me Congresswoman, we’ll meet again later this week?”

“Yeh. Good luck.”

I make my way to the Oval. When I arrive Charlie waves me through.

“Good Morning, Josh.”

“Morning, Sir. What’s happening? All that the agents could tell me was that Donna had pressed her panic button.”

“Do you know a Jason Miller?” I’m in shock that is the last name I was expecting to hear.

“Yes sir. He is an ex-boyfriend of Donna’s. She left him to join the campaign.”

“Ah, Dr Freeride.”

“Yes sir, well that’s the name I gave him.”

“Well the information I have been given is that when you came to work today you left a file you needed at home so Donna went to get it. When she got their Dr Miller had broken in and was waiting for her. He attempted to kidnap her at knifepoint but was shot in the head by an agent, dying instantly. Donna was place in a car by Agent Lucy and are on route to the residence.”

“Sir, did he write the letters?”

“No. Ron believes this is an unrelated incident.” Just then Charlie enters the room.“Sir“Sir. Donna has just arrived.” I look at the President with pleading eyes. All I want to do right now is hold Donna and never let her go.

“Go Josh. That girl needs you right now. Don’t worry about your schedule I’ll have Margaret clear it for the rest of the day. I’ll have someone make up one of the guest rooms, you and Donna will be my guests until the Secret Service has sorted out your condo.”

“Thank you, Sir.” With that I race towards the residence.

THE RESIDENCE
DONNA’S POV

When we arrive at the White House I am taken straight to the residence. I look over at Lucy soon as I realize where we are headed.

“The President’s orders.” We enter a large sitting room.

“Can I see Josh?”

“Mr Lyman’s been informed of the situation. He’s on his way up.” Just as she finishes the sentence Josh storms into the room.

“Donna!!” He emerges me into a tight hug. As he does Lucy quietly leaves the room. That is when I break down into tears.

“Josh. I was so scared, I though I was going to die.”

“Ssh. Its okay your safe now, I’m here.” He walks backwards until he is sitting in one of the chairs with me curled up in his lap. We sit like that for a while content just holding each other. Finally I break the silence.

“Josh, was it him who was writing the letters?

“No. Ron says its not related to the letters. Donna, you probably know this already but I’ve got to tell you. Jason’s dead. He died instantly, he didn’t suffer.”

“Well, that’s a shame I wish he had.” I know that seems harsh but after everything that man has put me through that’s how I feel. I can tell Josh is shocked by my response because at the moment he is doing an impression of a fish.

“Donna…” He starts hesitantly.

“Josh, I have to tell you something. I should have told you this years ago but I thought I would never see Jason ever again so didn’t think there was any need in bringing it up. I just hope you’ll understand.”

“Donna, what is it? You’re scaring me. What ever it is could never make me stop loving you, so please just tell me.” Okay, here it goes.

“When we first met I led you to believe that Jason dumped me soon as he graduated but there’s a bit more to it than that. Two months before I joined the campaign Jason prod tod to me and a couple of weeks later I found out I was pregnant, everything was great. Then a month later it all fell apart. I was still working five jobs to keep him. One day I collapsed at one of my jobs and was rushed to the hospital. My best friend went with me to the hospital and tried everywhere to find him but he was nowhere to be found. I lost the baby. I found out later while I was in hospital in pain, thinking I was dying, loosing his baby, he was across town sleeping with some other doctor. So as soon I was strong enough I jumped into my car, and came and found you.” Josh tightens his grip on me then places a kiss on my forehead. “He found out where I had gone and started phoning every day. He said he had changed, that me loosing the baby had made him grow up. So I went back to him but after I had the car crash I realised he hadn’t. That’s when I came back to you. After a couple of days he started phoning again. This time I didn’t answer the phone, I got Margaret to tell him that I hadn’t rejoined the campaign and that she didn’t know where I was. After a week he stopped phoning and I didn’t hear from him again till I saw him in our condo.”

“I’m so sorry you had to go through all that but as God is my witness while there is a breath left in my body no one will ever hurt you again. I promise you that.” I look him in the eye. If I ever doubted his need to protect me will I only have to remember the look in his eyes now. I lean to give him a passionate kiss.

“Now you know why I want a big family.”

“And I plan on giving you that family. I love you sunshine and I always will.”

“I love you too handsome.”

TBC.
