Marine & Beauty queen Ch 05
We made our way back to the cabin, then Susan went back to the creek to some of the canned drinks
gave her in the creek to cool. Hardly gone before I grabbed the first aid kit and found a bottle of
aspirin. She shook out two, then a blinding bolt of pain went through his head, shaking the other
two, then another.
I swallowed dry all five pills.
When Susan came back, I suggested to set to rest while she warmed something to eat. Actually, I
think I fell asleep for about 15 minutes, and when I woke up I felt much better. Headache was now
just a dull ache and my joints feel better.
Although I was not really hungry, I was forced to eat most of steak, a pork chop, along with some
potatoes. I was almost greedily thirst, and quickly downed two coke and beer. God, the beer tastes
so much better when it's cold!
Susan stood at the sink, cleaning the dishes when I hobbled behind her, reached down and began
unbuttoning her blouse. I slipped my hand inside and took her breasts (she was not wearing a bra)
and started playing with her nipple.
She turned and held out his hand and began to rub his penis in my shorts. A few minutes later we
were both naked, and back to bed, and Susan was on top of my cock buried inside her. This time, he
held me while she fell on me.
At the time I had cum, Susan had to have four or five orgasms, and just collapsed on me with her
breasts pressed against my chest.
Soon Susan was snoring softly in his ear. I thought it was so sweet to hear her snoring!
Before long, I joined her in sleep.
I woke up an hour later with the most incredible feeling! When I looked down, Susan knelt beside
me, with my now hard cock deep into her mouth. Her beautiful tight ass was just inches from my
shoulder, so I took one hand and started rubbing it between her legs.
She moaned. I reached out with my other hand and moved her legs on the other side of my head,
and soon my tongue was deep inside her as well.
69'ed we, until we both had incredible orgasms.
Susan lay down again beside me with her head on my shoulder and we fell asleep together.
We slept for about two hours, and when we woke up, it was almost 8 hours. Susan stood up and
began to fire again, and closed the window. It was a little chilly, and the fire quickly heats the room.
Susan again washed before me, then dumped the water and again both dishes before they let me go
to the table when I wash completely.
Unlike the early morning, this time she did not hesitate to wash all of me, and I'm just sucking deep
throat. Soon I filled her mouth with cum, then Susan was back on the table where I tried to give her
as much pleasure as when brought to me. After having half a dozen orgasms, I was hard again, and I
was deep in her love once more.
By now it was about 10 o'clock on Saturday night, Susan and I went back to bed.
It was almost the last thing I remember until I woke up back in the hospital.
I was alone in the room, and I had IV's in both arms, I felt a catheter in my penis and my right leg
was increased in strength, about six inches from the bed. I lay there, trying to understand how I got
here, and what's going on, but decided to just buzz for nurses.
It could be more than 15 or 20 seconds before the door burst open and two nurses rushed in. One of
the nurses was Debra.
"Thank God you're awake," said Debra.
I tried to speak, but my throat was so dry I could not speak. Debra poured water on me, and then
held the cup, when I was drinking through a straw.
"What ... what's going Debra?" I finally managed to ask.
"Well, you probably know who I am, and I assume that you know where you are?" Asked Debra.
"Yes, hospitals, Corpus Christi," I replied.
"Do you know what day it is?" she asked.
I thought for a minute. The last thing I remembered was falling asleep with Susan on Saturday
evening.
"Well, this Sunday?" I dared.
"Today is Wednesday," said Debra. "Have you been in a coma since Sunday."
Four days? I was unconscious for four days?
Suddenly I panicked
"Susan Where is Susan?" I screamed, trying to trying to sit up.
Debra and other sister both had to push me back down, and I did not stop fighting until I told Debra
that Susan is fine and would be back in a few minutes. She went to her apartment to bathe and
change clothes.
I actually started to cry. For a moment I thought something happened to her, and absolute relief
when he heard that it's okay, it was amazing.
"I do not understand what happened? How I lost four days?" I asked.
Debra explained that Susan slept and dreamed that in a sauna. Suddenly he woke up and reached
out to touch my face, and almost had to jerk his hand back, I was so hot.
She jumped up, grabbed her first aid kit and I managed to temperature.
"You are a registered 105 degrees," Debra. "106 can be fatal, and 105 may actually cause brain
damage.
"That's why I was so glad that you knew who I was and where you were," she said.
"Susan ran a little cold water and started putting cold cloths for you. Also managed to get a swallow
aspirin, and soon your temperature starts to drop," she said.
Susan to check your bandages and notice blood on the bandage to her to remove those.
"Your knee is swollen and bleeding, and had some pus oozes out. Knee Susan clean and put fresh
bandages on, then you put a few shots of antibiotics. Antibiotics, and how your temperature down,
saved my life."
"She correctly diagnosed that you had a staph infection on his knees, and when, in rare cases, staph
infections can cause high fever, she felt that it was too early to say that to develop a high fever."
Debra continued that after the fever went down, so I alternate between being semi-transparent and
moments of being very disoriented. In bright moments, Susan found that while in Iraq, I was
surprised by what was first called Blackwater Fever, but later found that just malaria.
"Yes, I had a mild case of malaria," I admitted. "At first I was stunned because I thought malaria was
something only captured in a jungle like conditions from mosquitoes. Iraq was about as un-jungle
like, as you can imagine."
Debra said Susan rightly held that the staph infection weaken the immune system of my body to the
point that when I became ill with full-blown attack of malaria, it's totally overwhelmed my system.
"I congratulate you on one thing," Debra said with a smile. "Susan always says, when he became
disoriented that you started calling for her, and when you held and said that they have started to
say" I love you Susan, I love you. "'
I did not say anything for a moment, then smiled and said:.! "Well, thank God for that, I was calling
the name Susan Can you imagine if instead I was calling" Debra, Debra, I love you, "then Susan
would know everything about our ongoing affair!"
Debra mouth actually dropped jaw, and for one brief moment the absolute look of stunned disbelief
on his face was worth any more torture, which probably would inflect at me when I started physical
therapy again.
Another sister burst out laughing like a hyena. At least until they recover Debra cast a baleful glance
at her, then other sister remembered that she had something else to do for another patient. She was
still snickering as left the room and we could hear it sometimes laugh out loud when she walked
down the corridor.
Debra then turned a baleful glance at me and said: "I think we really need to check for any damage
to the brain!"
Then Debra smiled at me (I had a sudden cold) and asked if I was interested in saving the
government some money?
Very carefully, I asked, "How?"
"When Susan comes back, just say something about comparing her weight down., If not kill you
outright, then I will finish what little is left!" she said with an evil grin.
"Susan ... Susan told you about that?" I asked quietly.
"She told me everything. Everything!" Debra replied, "including what you were doing when you said
that ... Mr. Super Stud!"
I felt my face turn bright red.
"She told me much more than I wanted to hear, but at least it was better than seeing her crying her
eyes out and blame themselves almost killed you," said Debra.
"Susan is blaming herself?" I asked, a shock must have been evident in my voice.
Debra explained that Susan kept saying that after four years of medical school, she would realize my
knee was attacked on Saturday morning, and swollen from overexertion, either in physical therapy,
or of our activities on Friday evening. And how, when she saw how pale I was and how thirsty I
should know, I had a bout of malaria.
"I keep telling her that no one, neither I nor doctor, no one could have guessed, but she still blame
myself," said Debra. "The only time I can get her to stop the torment myself is when I say how
incredible you are in bed ... or on the kitchen table."
"She said I was amazing?" I asked with a huge smile.
"Oh God, definite brain damage," she said.
"You know that for the first two days did not leave his side for a second, except to use the restroom?
Even insisted that her food here. Was not until we come to the safety of the hospital and threatened
her arrest that she would even go to the dining room. Ona missed school for three days.
"Her father came this morning, and when he saw that he threatened to throw her over his shoulder
and take her to his apartment to be able to shower and change. Actually, I thought I hit him she was
so upset. Finally convinced her that when you woke up and saw it as it was this morning looking for
her, the shock would send you back to unconsciousness and even kill.
"They've been gone an hour, and should be back any minute," said Debra.
Just about then, the door burst open and Susan entered the room, but did not look at me.
Instead, she began to speak Debra: "What's going on with Charlene she laughs like a hyena, and
every time I ask her what was going on, all it does is say," Debra, Debra, I love you, "and then? starts
to laugh even more."
"Ask your idiot friend there, because I'm going to kill my sister," said Debra, he stormed out of the
room.
Because of the importance of Debra words, it was clear to her, especially the part about "ask your
idiot friend," Susan turned to me.
When she saw me smiling at her, and I held hands, she practically flew across the hospital room.
She laughed and cried, but most importantly, kissing me again and again and again. Of course, I did
all those things as well!
It did not take long when Susan stopped kissing me, than look almost of despair came to her and
began to cry in earnest.
"You could have died. And it would be my fault," she sobbed.
I tried repeatedly to tell her how bad it was, but it was not until I grabbed her by the shoulders and
shook her literally have finally started listening to me.
"I did not think my knee already starting to deteriorate on Friday morning. And I did not tell you how
much it hurt Friday night. And I'm going to tell you how a Saturday afternoon when you asked about
my knee and I said, that it was better ... but actually I feel better, but I did not say that my other
knee hurts, along with my hips, back, shoulders and even your elbows.
"When you said I was looking pale, I joked about it, but I can not tell you how much worse I felt all
my joints, and I'm going to tell you how much my head hurts. And I really hurt.
"When I went to get a drink out of the creek, I did not tell you that I took five aspirin. And after I
woke up, I really felt better. Soon.
"The fact is, Susan, you saved my life through my not tell you how I felt. You saved my life, Susan.
Ty! They did it, no one else."
Although both Susan and I knew it was against the rules of hospitals, when he climbed into bed with
me. Of course we had to be careful because of the maze of pipes running all around me.
"You scared me to death, Dennis. Thought ... I thought you were going to die," Susan said, tears still
streaming down her face.
"From now on, if you know what's good for you, you will tell me everything, even if you have a Hang-
nail," she said.
I told her that I then found myself drifting back to sleep, content, because the woman I loved was
with me.
In fact we slept together all night. Later I found out that the nurses came to check on me several
times, but let Susan sleep, knowing that he got virtually no sleep since Sunday morning.
On Thursday morning, Debra brought breakfast for both of us, and did Susan get up because the
doctor will do a tour soon.
When the doctor came, checked my knee, then explained that he actually had to re-bend to treat the
infection directly, I would soon have to start all over his physical therapy session again. As you can
imagine, I was thrilled to hear that - NOT
After the doctor left, Susan Debra filled in the details left out.
"I do not know, Susan. Weighed at least 70 pounds more than you. How did you get into the cave on
a four-wheeler, and how did you even get me on the quad?"
Susan shook her head.
"Frankly, I do not know," she said, "I just knew that if I did not, then you're going to die. My mobile
phone does not work so far, and I knew I would die if I did 't get it back. Could I did not leave
because the temperature would start to go up again. "
Susan said tying Remember me on a four-wheeler, using the rope from the saddle, looping the rope
around my thighs. Then she sat in front of me and tied my hands in front of stomach.
She could not go too fast, because I could still fall over the rope around his legs. And if I start to fall,
I probably would have pulled it off well. And yet she can not go too slowly, knowing how desperately
I needed advanced medical help.
Worse time was when he had to stop to open a gate. She was terrified I would fall, and she did not
think he would be able to get me back on the quad. One should open the gate just left.
By the time he got to the final gate, she was so close that her cell phone to work, so she called her
father and let him call an ambulance. I told him that I taught them how staph infection, and was
recently returned Iraq veteran suffering from a full-malaria attack.
The ranch was so far away, at a time when it went up, just ambulance arrives. IV is started
immediately, and gave me a much stronger antibiotics than Susan had in my medicine cabinet.
Susan drove me first to the nearest hospital.
"I told them that I was your wife and sister, so let me live with you," she said.
I told her if I had my way, as she will soon!
She laughed and kissed me. I think it meant that she agreed
!
Once I was stabilized, she was riding with me in another ambulance back to Corpus Christi, where
Debra had a team waiting for me.
The rest I knew.
When it was time for lunch, Charlene "second sister" brought our plates in. As soon as he saw me,
Charlene began to laugh, and when Susan asked her why she just shook her head and laughed some
more.
After he left, I said to Susan, what I said about "Debra, Debra, I love you," and our anticipated affair.
And the incredible stunned look on Debra's face!
Susan started laughing so hard she was crying.
"I can not believe someone to kill you now," she said.
As we lay together that night in the hospital bed, I suddenly remembered what John told me on the
quad when we were about to go into the canyon for the first time.
"Susan, do you remember when we left the ranch, you can get on the horse and John shook my hand
and then leaned over and said something to me?"
"Oh, yes, I meant to ask you, what did he say?" said.
I told her, John said he knew I loved you, but "be fine. Has a secret that he thinks that Debra and I
do not know about"
Susan blanched.
"Do you think he knows that he and Debra know ..." she could not finish my sentence.
"O Chicago?" I bounced response and Susan mi smile of relief and nodded.
"I do not know. But maybe you're underestimating how much I love you," I said.
Usually, by now, at the end of visiting hours Susan would leave and return to his apartment and get
ready for school the next day. That night, however, she slept with me again.
It was another week before I became ambulatory again, which means Susan bossed around by me in
a wheelchair. We continued our walks and talks around the hospital.
By now, Susan went in the studio, but every day she came back to me thirteen hours.
Then one day, about three weeks later, Debra, Susan, and my doctor came to see me.
To make a long story short, my knee will never be the same. Too much damage, even without a staph
infection. A Marines really did not need a man who could not physically perform their duties.
Marines offered, and I accepted, 30 percent disability. It took about a month to process the
paperwork, and I continued physical therapy. But finally the day came when I got my release, and
was also released from the hospital.
I went out. . . and limped away. . . Hospital freshly discharged Marine, and now unemployed civilian.
Not that I did not have prospects.
During my last three weeks in the hospital, Susan would take me to the ranch on weekends, and
John and I started having long conversations about various agricultural equipment I operated.
At one point he asked me if I ever run any heavy earthworks, and I explained that I had spent two
years after graduation he worked for a construction company that clearing the land, and sorted for
Wal-Mart over the South.
Regularly bulldozers, graders, back-hoes, plates, etc. He started asking specific questions regarding
certain equipment and I explained as best I could remember.
Next weekend, when Susan and I pulled out, John had a bulldozer sits next to the house. He has also
built an obstacle course for me to go through, and had staked out an area about three bulldozer
blades wide and 300 meters long.
My job was to make your way through the obstacle course without tearing something up, then the
ground level in the inset area to the same depth. No climb or depression, and the most important
thing, it was as straight as possible over the entire area.
I had driven bulldozers for several years, so John let me train for a while. It seems that I went
through, because John said after his release he wanted to have a serious conversation with me.
One month after its release, Susan received nursing education. Two weeks later, we were married.
When I was released, I got attended his disability salary as a lump sum, plus got paid for my unused
vacation. And while in the hospital for the past few months I have spent virtually no money, so
adding some savings that I had, in fact, I had about $ 45,000.
Susan and I spent two weeks on a Caribbean Cruise, then another week in Rosewood Canyon.

  • 1. Marine & Beauty queen Ch 05 We made our way back to the cabin, then Susan went back to the creek to some of the canned drinks gave her in the creek to cool.

"' I did not say anything for a moment, then smiled and said:.! "Well, thank God for that, I was calling the name Susan Can you imagine if instead I was calling" Debra, Debra, I love you, "then Susan would know everything about our ongoing affair!" Debra mouth actually dropped jaw, and for one brief moment the absolute look of stunned disbelief on his face was worth any more torture, which probably would inflect at me when I started physical therapy again. Another sister burst out laughing like a hyena. At least until they recover Debra cast a baleful glance at her, then other sister remembered that she had something else to do for another patient. She was still snickering as left the room and we could hear it sometimes laugh out loud when she walked down the corridor. Debra then turned a baleful glance at me and said: "I think we really need to check for any damage to the brain!"
  • 4. Then Debra smiled at me (I had a sudden cold) and asked if I was interested in saving the government some money? Very carefully, I asked, "How?" "When Susan comes back, just say something about comparing her weight down., If not kill you outright, then I will finish what little is left!" she said with an evil grin. "Susan ... Susan told you about that?" I asked quietly. "She told me everything. Everything!" Debra replied, "including what you were doing when you said that ... Mr. Super Stud!" I felt my face turn bright red. "She told me much more than I wanted to hear, but at least it was better than seeing her crying her eyes out and blame themselves almost killed you," said Debra. "Susan is blaming herself?" I asked, a shock must have been evident in my voice. Debra explained that Susan kept saying that after four years of medical school, she would realize my knee was attacked on Saturday morning, and swollen from overexertion, either in physical therapy, or of our activities on Friday evening. And how, when she saw how pale I was and how thirsty I should know, I had a bout of malaria. "I keep telling her that no one, neither I nor doctor, no one could have guessed, but she still blame myself," said Debra. "The only time I can get her to stop the torment myself is when I say how incredible you are in bed ... or on the kitchen table." "She said I was amazing?" I asked with a huge smile. "Oh God, definite brain damage," she said. "You know that for the first two days did not leave his side for a second, except to use the restroom? Even insisted that her food here. Was not until we come to the safety of the hospital and threatened her arrest that she would even go to the dining room. Ona missed school for three days. "Her father came this morning, and when he saw that he threatened to throw her over his shoulder and take her to his apartment to be able to shower and change. Actually, I thought I hit him she was so upset. Finally convinced her that when you woke up and saw it as it was this morning looking for her, the shock would send you back to unconsciousness and even kill. "They've been gone an hour, and should be back any minute," said Debra. Just about then, the door burst open and Susan entered the room, but did not look at me. Instead, she began to speak Debra: "What's going on with Charlene she laughs like a hyena, and every time I ask her what was going on, all it does is say," Debra, Debra, I love you, "and then? starts to laugh even more." "Ask your idiot friend there, because I'm going to kill my sister," said Debra, he stormed out of the
  • 5. room. Because of the importance of Debra words, it was clear to her, especially the part about "ask your idiot friend," Susan turned to me. When she saw me smiling at her, and I held hands, she practically flew across the hospital room. She laughed and cried, but most importantly, kissing me again and again and again. Of course, I did all those things as well! It did not take long when Susan stopped kissing me, than look almost of despair came to her and began to cry in earnest. "You could have died. And it would be my fault," she sobbed. I tried repeatedly to tell her how bad it was, but it was not until I grabbed her by the shoulders and shook her literally have finally started listening to me. "I did not think my knee already starting to deteriorate on Friday morning. And I did not tell you how much it hurt Friday night. And I'm going to tell you how a Saturday afternoon when you asked about my knee and I said, that it was better ... but actually I feel better, but I did not say that my other knee hurts, along with my hips, back, shoulders and even your elbows. "When you said I was looking pale, I joked about it, but I can not tell you how much worse I felt all my joints, and I'm going to tell you how much my head hurts. And I really hurt. "When I went to get a drink out of the creek, I did not tell you that I took five aspirin. And after I woke up, I really felt better. Soon. "The fact is, Susan, you saved my life through my not tell you how I felt. You saved my life, Susan. Ty! They did it, no one else." Although both Susan and I knew it was against the rules of hospitals, when he climbed into bed with me. Of course we had to be careful because of the maze of pipes running all around me. "You scared me to death, Dennis. Thought ... I thought you were going to die," Susan said, tears still streaming down her face. "From now on, if you know what's good for you, you will tell me everything, even if you have a Hang- nail," she said. I told her that I then found myself drifting back to sleep, content, because the woman I loved was with me. In fact we slept together all night. Later I found out that the nurses came to check on me several times, but let Susan sleep, knowing that he got virtually no sleep since Sunday morning. On Thursday morning, Debra brought breakfast for both of us, and did Susan get up because the doctor will do a tour soon. When the doctor came, checked my knee, then explained that he actually had to re-bend to treat the
  • 6. infection directly, I would soon have to start all over his physical therapy session again. As you can imagine, I was thrilled to hear that - NOT After the doctor left, Susan Debra filled in the details left out. "I do not know, Susan. Weighed at least 70 pounds more than you. How did you get into the cave on a four-wheeler, and how did you even get me on the quad?" Susan shook her head. "Frankly, I do not know," she said, "I just knew that if I did not, then you're going to die. My mobile phone does not work so far, and I knew I would die if I did 't get it back. Could I did not leave because the temperature would start to go up again. " Susan said tying Remember me on a four-wheeler, using the rope from the saddle, looping the rope around my thighs. Then she sat in front of me and tied my hands in front of stomach. She could not go too fast, because I could still fall over the rope around his legs. And if I start to fall, I probably would have pulled it off well. And yet she can not go too slowly, knowing how desperately I needed advanced medical help. Worse time was when he had to stop to open a gate. She was terrified I would fall, and she did not think he would be able to get me back on the quad. One should open the gate just left. By the time he got to the final gate, she was so close that her cell phone to work, so she called her father and let him call an ambulance. I told him that I taught them how staph infection, and was recently returned Iraq veteran suffering from a full-malaria attack. The ranch was so far away, at a time when it went up, just ambulance arrives. IV is started immediately, and gave me a much stronger antibiotics than Susan had in my medicine cabinet. Susan drove me first to the nearest hospital. "I told them that I was your wife and sister, so let me live with you," she said. I told her if I had my way, as she will soon! She laughed and kissed me. I think it meant that she agreed ! Once I was stabilized, she was riding with me in another ambulance back to Corpus Christi, where Debra had a team waiting for me. The rest I knew. When it was time for lunch, Charlene "second sister" brought our plates in. As soon as he saw me, Charlene began to laugh, and when Susan asked her why she just shook her head and laughed some more. After he left, I said to Susan, what I said about "Debra, Debra, I love you," and our anticipated affair. And the incredible stunned look on Debra's face!
  • 7. Susan started laughing so hard she was crying. "I can not believe someone to kill you now," she said. As we lay together that night in the hospital bed, I suddenly remembered what John told me on the quad when we were about to go into the canyon for the first time. "Susan, do you remember when we left the ranch, you can get on the horse and John shook my hand and then leaned over and said something to me?" "Oh, yes, I meant to ask you, what did he say?" said. I told her, John said he knew I loved you, but "be fine. Has a secret that he thinks that Debra and I do not know about" Susan blanched. "Do you think he knows that he and Debra know ..." she could not finish my sentence. "O Chicago?" I bounced response and Susan mi smile of relief and nodded. "I do not know. But maybe you're underestimating how much I love you," I said. Usually, by now, at the end of visiting hours Susan would leave and return to his apartment and get ready for school the next day. That night, however, she slept with me again. It was another week before I became ambulatory again, which means Susan bossed around by me in a wheelchair. We continued our walks and talks around the hospital. By now, Susan went in the studio, but every day she came back to me thirteen hours. Then one day, about three weeks later, Debra, Susan, and my doctor came to see me. To make a long story short, my knee will never be the same. Too much damage, even without a staph infection. A Marines really did not need a man who could not physically perform their duties. Marines offered, and I accepted, 30 percent disability. It took about a month to process the paperwork, and I continued physical therapy. But finally the day came when I got my release, and was also released from the hospital. I went out. . . and limped away. . . Hospital freshly discharged Marine, and now unemployed civilian. Not that I did not have prospects. During my last three weeks in the hospital, Susan would take me to the ranch on weekends, and John and I started having long conversations about various agricultural equipment I operated. At one point he asked me if I ever run any heavy earthworks, and I explained that I had spent two years after graduation he worked for a construction company that clearing the land, and sorted for Wal-Mart over the South. Regularly bulldozers, graders, back-hoes, plates, etc. He started asking specific questions regarding
  • 8. certain equipment and I explained as best I could remember. Next weekend, when Susan and I pulled out, John had a bulldozer sits next to the house. He has also built an obstacle course for me to go through, and had staked out an area about three bulldozer blades wide and 300 meters long. My job was to make your way through the obstacle course without tearing something up, then the ground level in the inset area to the same depth. No climb or depression, and the most important thing, it was as straight as possible over the entire area. I had driven bulldozers for several years, so John let me train for a while. It seems that I went through, because John said after his release he wanted to have a serious conversation with me. One month after its release, Susan received nursing education. Two weeks later, we were married. When I was released, I got attended his disability salary as a lump sum, plus got paid for my unused vacation. And while in the hospital for the past few months I have spent virtually no money, so adding some savings that I had, in fact, I had about $ 45,000. Susan and I spent two weeks on a Caribbean Cruise, then another week in Rosewood Canyon.
