I Won't Let You Go

Chapter 8

Björn and Agnetha were relaxing at home following that trip to the hospital. It's now been several days since her suicide attempt. After that particular incident, along with Agnetha's fainting spell a couple of weeks earlier, there was no doubt on Björn's mind that he was very overprotective of Agnetha.

However, Lena isn't so happy about that. Björn had filed for divorce from her on the night of Agnetha's fainting spell following her horrific nightmare. She was very angry and was furious for the first few days and weeks, but now Lena has accepted the fact that she and Björn were no more.

She has also accepted the fact that Björn and Agnetha were together again. After all, she should've expected that part since his feelings for Agnetha were still there and there were so many hints that were made public that Agnetha and Björn still loved each other. Plus, Agnetha had been depressed for so long. She has been doing a better job of hiding it in public, but she's depressed. And now Björn is making her feel better.

Björn went back to his old house to gather up a few things when he noticed that they were already packed up and ready to go. Björn was confused to say the least.

"Lena, what's going on? Why is my stuff already packed up?"

"Well I decided to take the weight off your shoulders. Simple as that."

"Wow...I don't know what to say."

"Björn...do you still love me?"

Björn was stunned when Lena asked him that question. He stood there looking frozen and dazed for at least a minute or two. Lena was starting to get concerned.

"Björn! Björn! You're spacing out again!" Lena exclaimed as she slapped him across the face to get him to wake up.

"AWWWWW!!!!!" Björn groaned, touching his face, "LENA WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?!"

"I asked you a question and you spaced out," Lena replied firmly and calmly.

"Oh right. You did ask a question and to answer it, it's complicated. I love Agnetha for sure. I always have and as for you, we've been together for 40 years but unfortunately my love for you has run out but we can still be friends right?"

"Yeah I guess."

"See, there we go. We are friends. Anyways, thank you for taking the weight off my shoulders and packing up the rest of my stuff together. Goodbye Lena," Björn said as he headed out the door carrying one of the boxes.

"Goodbye Björn," Lena sighed as she handed Björn his second box.

Björn closed the trunk of his car and headed back to Ekerö. He left the house very early in the morning to get the last of his things out of his old house that he shared with Lena before Agnetha woke up. But when he finally did get back to Ekerö, Agnetha was already well and truly awake.

Björn entered the house and the first thing he heard was Agnetha's heartwrenching screams and sobs. He checked the time on his phone: 6:45 am. She's having a nightmare, he thought. Björn left his things in the kitchen and rushed over to Agnetha's bedroom to comfort her.

When Björn finally did reach Agnetha's bedroom, he couldn't notice but help the heartbreaking sight before him. Agnetha was throwing herself around in bed screaming and crying from her nightmare. He rushed over to her and immediately rubbed his hands on her back and said soothing words to her.

"Anna, it's ok sweetheart. It was just a nightmare. You're ok," Björn whispered as he comforted her.

She woke up and upon seeing Björn's handsome face, she couldn't help but cry some more. Her nightmare was really something else. Agnetha had never been so scared from a nightmare in a long time and Björn was getting concerned.

"B-B-Björn! Thank God you're still alive! I thought you had died!" Agnetha exclaimed as Björn continued to hold her.

"Shh...it's ok Agnetha. I'm here," Björn said as he wiped her tears.

"Don't ever leave me again, Björn. I swear. Please don't!"

"I won't Anna. Never for a million years," Björn replied, reassuring her.

"Ok good," Agnetha replied firmly. Björn couldn't help but chuckle a bit at the firm way Agnetha spoke.

"What's so funny?!"

"No, it's nothing sweetheart."

"You're laughing at me, aren't you?!" Agnetha exclaimed as she burst into tears again. She has always been so sensitive.

"No, no. Sweetheart, please. Please don't cry. I'm sorry if I made you cry. I was only laughing because of how assertive you sounded. I had really missed it when you were so bossy and assertive with me in a playful way. Please, Anna. I'm so sorry," Björn replied, rubbing her arms.

"It's ok. I forgive you, Björn. I just wish I wasn't so sensitive. You and Benny have always been so strong. And even Frida is really strong. I'm just too sensitive and I wish I didn't cry and have nightmares so often. I'm too old to be experiencing this. I'm a grandmother for God's sake!" Agnetha cried harder and Björn held her more.

"You don't have to apologize for being sensitive. It's just a part of who you are. And just because Benny, Frida, and I have always been better at hiding our emotions doesn't mean that you are also strong. In fact, you being sensitive makes you a stronger person in that sense. As for your crying fits and your nightmares, you can't help it. And besides, age is just a number. And that's why I love you, Agnetha," Björn said firmly but softly as he kissed Agnetha's forehead and rubbed his nose against hers.

"I love you, Björn," Agnetha replied as her tears finally came to an end.

She kissed him and next thing you know, Agnetha and Björn started to get intimate with one another. Björn started to untie the end of Agnetha's robe and strip her off of her nightgown and she did the same for him. Their kisses started to get even more passionate and as their moans started to get a bit louder, Agnetha grew concerned. She suddenly stopped.

"Anna baby, why did you stop?"

"Björn what if the kids can hear us? The grandkids?"

"They won't hear us. Linda and Jens are taking the girls over to the stables today. Esther has a show jumping competition next week. They need to practice," Björn said reassuring her.

Agnetha nodded in agreement and the two continued their morning of passion. Soon enough, Björn kissed his way down Agnetha's body. Kissing her neck, grabbing her breasts, kissing and sucking her nipples, and just simply kissing his way down her body before the two eventually reached their climax.

"I love you so much, Björn. I hope you know that."

"Me too, Agnetha."
