Changes ~ Chapter 1 In the Beginning
Well I guess first things first, my name is Mellisa Sheldon. I'm 22 years old and just graduated from Sim State University in the education major. I was top of my class all years. I graduated valedictorian and landed myself a job as a 3rd grade teacher at Simsburg Elementary.
This is my husband Jake. He was my high school sweetheart and is the love of my life. We were married shortly after my sophomore year at Sim State against the wishes of my parents but what can I say I love him and I wanted our relationship to be more permanent. My parents wanted me to wait until after college and maybe find someone more to their standards. See my parents are the type that never thinks anything is good enough for their children but I just knew that Jake was perfect enough for me.
Jake never went to college but he was super smart, he was always finding ways to get out of situations that would normally ruin your life. There was one time in high school he got mixed up with the wrong crowd and got arrested for breaking and entering but somehow he talked his way out of time in juvenile hall and the charges never even went on his record.
Time went by and we were happy. We saved up our money and moved out of our tiny apartment and bought our first house and what would probably be our only house. It was huge 4 bedrooms, 2 baths. It was more than big enough for the 2 of us and our dog Duke.
I spent a lot of time studying and trying to further my career.
Jake on the other hand spent a lot of time lounging around the house all day while I went off to work. It never really bothered me it was just Jakes way of doing things. He said he was trying to find the right job for him.
Months went by and Jake still had no job and I was our soul source of income. It was starting to really get to me and we started fighting a lot. There were even times that we slept in separate rooms just to get away from each other.
One night i got home from work around 5pm only to see that Jake was no where to be found. Not a big deal to me I had tons of papers to grade and I found it was easier to get done without Jake distracting me. I finished my work and started dinner. I figured if he wasn't home in time he could just have leftovers. It wouldn't be the first time I had eaten alone.
But Jake got home just as dinner was finished cooking, and instead of taking his plate into the living room to eat in front of the TV he sat down at the table with me. "Where have you been?" I asked him in a not so happy tone. "Actually I've been working." He shot back at me before putting a bite of spaghetti in his mouth. "Really where did you get a job at?" I asked shocked that he had actually found a job. "No where special just a little shop in town." He replied not even looking up at me. "Ah" was all I could say. We ate the rest of our meal in silence.
Later that night things got a little better. I was laying in bed reading a book when Jake came in and gave me a very passionate kiss. "What was that for?" I asked looking him in the eyes for the first time in a long time. "Just thought I would come and give my pretty lady the love she deserves, and apologize for the way I acted at dinner. I had a really hard day." He said. He looked at me in a way I've never seen before. He climbed onto the bed as i set my book down on the nightstand. He grabbed the back of my head and kissed me again but this time he laid me down very gently as he was kissing me. That was something that hadn't happened in a long time.
Well one thing led to another and well you know the rest. Jake and I made love for the first time in probably 3 months. It was the best night of my life and that night I feel asleep in the arms of the man I love.
