“It’s okay, babe It’s just a dream. I have you and you are safe and it is all over now” He knew that she would drift back off to sleep and would not remember most of this in the morning unless it was something that really stood out for her. Many of the times she was working on a case, she said that she had dreams and only remembered some of the things that took place, but it was usually major things that helped them out.
She smiled up at him. “I’m okay now. Thanks, Johnnie.” She looked up at him closely and then blushed as she looked down at herself. Her night shirt was pushed up around her thighs, and it was stuck to her like a second skin. Johnnie sat there in only his boxer briefs holding her closely against him.
For the first time, Angeline seemed to really see him, as others would see him. He was a very large man; many might say he was massive. He stood at 6’11’ tall, he weighed in at close to 380 pounds and it was all muscle. He worked out often, and anyone who had eyes could see that he was in good shape. His sandy blonde hair and big, blue-grey eyes and perfect tan made him look like a beach bum. She used to joke at him that he looked out of place with the police; he should be on the beach somewhere waiting for that perfect wave.
