Adam and Paula Fitzpatrick had left their home town of Parkersboro to escape the rampant corruption that gripped it to its core. They would return ten years later with hopes of cleaning it up.

Adam and Paula were high school sweethearts. Adam had always been an outspoken guy, and that is what attracted Paula to him. To be honest, she had had a crush on him for years.

They went to school together, and they also went to the same church. That was where she first laid eyes on him, during Sunday School, when they were children. She was smitten at first sight, but was too nervous to say anything. As she grew up, she just could not seem to work up the nerve to confess her feelings. She talked herself away from him, afraid of rejection, and her childish crush dissipated with maturity, though those initial feelings still lingered.

During her middle school and early high school years, she explored other options, while still keeping an eye on Adam. That old flame still flickered, but not as brightly. Adam had always seemed shy as well, but as he grew up, he became more outgoing and outspoken. And once this happened, Paula's crush began to burn brightly once again.

She would watch him when he was on stage with the debate team, and the passion with which he spoke reaffirmed her attraction to him immediately. It also didn't hurt that he had become an exceedingly handsome young man.

Paula loved intelligent men, so watching this handsome young man speak with wisdom beyond his years, passionately defending his views and high minded ideals, was enough to rekindle the embers of Paula's crush. He drove her wild every time she saw him, watching him quietly from the crowd, heart pounding and face flushed hot and pink.

It took awhile, but Paula eventually worked up the nerve to talk to him, and she could see him perk up when she started talking politics. Their first meeting evolved from awkward chit-chat into a friendly debate, and she could feel his respect for her growing as they developed a fluid give and take, each conceding politely to the other's point of view. They started dating soon after that, and quickly became inseparable.

Adam recognized a kindred spirit in Paula. For most people his age, talking about politics and world issues was taboo; most of their classmate's interests were banal and selfish, ordinary. In Paula, he found someone he could talk to and learn from. She was as informed and proactive as he was. It also didn't hurt that she was extremely cute. Cute and funny. And she didn't let him get too serious about things. She kept him grounded and did not let him take himself too seriously.

Adam wasn't the type of guy to go after the hottest girl around; though those types of vapid sluts seemed to pursue him endlessly, drawn to him despite his disinterest. He wanted a girl with substance. And Paula had substance. She had personality.

That's not to say she wasn't pretty, because she was. She may not be a model, but she was more than enough for him. She had a cute, round cheeked, face, with mousy brown hair and a light bit of freckles. She had smooth, creamy pale skin. Her body was petite, and he soon realized that Paula had some body issues.

Adam still remembered the first time they made love. It was both of their first times. It was the greatest moment of his life up to that point. He enjoyed himself, but Paula at times seemed hesitant and unsure. She did not think her boobs enough for him, but he comforted her, telling her anything more than a handful was a waste. She didn't think her butt was round enough, her slim hips wide enough, but he consoled her, telling her it was perfect as is, and yet again, more than a handful is a waste. As time went on, Paula loosened up, and Adam could feel her confidence grow in herself, as he constantly reassured and comforted her.

Paula couldn't help but wonder how she got so lucky to end up with a man like Adam. In her opinion, he was the hottest guy she had ever seen. He had a lean, muscular, build, solid but not imposing. He had a strong jaw line and sharp features, making him stand out from the crowd. He had a boyish charm, and an extremely charming smile, and these features made him seem approachable and affable. And he had a smile you had to earn. Sometimes, he could be a bit too serious about things, but Paula knew just the way to ground him and put that cute smile of his on his face. He had charisma that could carry a room. He never dominated the conversation, he always let people speak their mind, but the way he spoke made everyone want to listen.

Paula could tell he was meant to be a politician. He was perfect for it. Paula realized she could never do the things Adam could do. Adam was a star. But Adam needed someone like her at his side, and Paula vowed to be there.

Paula knew it was destiny when Adam confessed that he had had a crush on her since they were young, when he saw her at Sunday School, but had been too shy to approach her. They shared a laugh as she confessed the same feelings during her younger days, and they wondered what could have been had they gotten together earlier.

Adam proposed to Paula during their graduation ceremony. There was not a dry eye in the house. Most parents would be hesitant to let their 18 year old child get married, but their parents realized those two were perfect for each other. They married quickly at the Church they had attended their entire lives, the Church where they had first seen each other.

It was as they were deciding which college to attend that they realized the corruption that had spread through the town they grew up in. Parkersboro had seemed like the perfect little town, but as they grew up the shiny veneer of the city started to disappear, revealing the town's seedy underbelly. Urban decay set in, as streets fell into disrepair, street gangs spread graffiti, and vandals ran rampant, destroying or desecrating public property. Those in government were exposed for some of the unseemly things they did; bribes, back alley deals, abuse of power, scandal; but they always seemed to escape justice. The drug trade was thriving, and the police were unable or unwilling to do anything about it, as most of the cops were eventually revealed to be on the take. The criminals were running the town, it seemed, and no one was stopping them.

Most importantly for them, though, was that this taint had spread to the Church. Both of them were devout Catholics, and they both would say that part of the reason they turned out as grounded, mature, young adults was due to their involvement in the Church. But the Church's greed and suspicion of involvement in some shady dealings had shaken their faith. Now that their Church was corrupt, it seemed that part of what made their home was gone and the memory of those bright and happy days with it.

Both Adam and Paula were aware of this cancerous taint, but neither was in a position to do anything about it. Adam hated what his hometown had become. He vowed to himself that he would change things. He would not let himself be corrupted like so many others were. He vowed to be a beacon of hope. He vowed to be the one to change things. But he knew now was not the time. It was with heavy hearts that both of them chose to leave Parkersboro and go to college out of state, both leaving home for the first time.

They were nervous as they entered college, unsure of how to start a new life in a new place. But they acclimated quickly and turned this new city into their new home. They got a house together, they joined a Church together, and they went to school together. Things were great.

As time passed, it still nagged at both of them that their home town had ended up with such a tarnished reputation. They both kept up with Parkersboro in the news, and things only seemed to get worse. This grated them, but they were still not in a place to be able to do anything.

They both went on to study Political Science in school, hoping to pursue a career in politics, but, deep down, they both knew Adam was the one with a future in politics. He was a man that could get people on his side. Paula was just as intelligent as he was, but she did not have the charisma, the passion, or the strikingly good looks that he did. She was not a bad looking girl, but she did not stand out from the crowd.

Immediately after graduation, Adam and Paula both got jobs with the local government. They knew they needed to get their feet wet, and experience how the political system worked first-hand. It did not take long for people to recognize Adam's political talent, and once they did he quickly rose within the political ladder. Within two years he was elected mayor.

This city had never had a more popular Mayor. For once, the Mayor was not some cigar chomping stodgy old rich guy, but a young and vibrant forward thinking go-getter, who genuinely cared about the community. He was clever, using the media and the internet in a way the old guard would never think of. He was a young-man in an old-man's game. His charisma won over people quickly, and the disillusioned youth found someone they could believe in. He was their voice. And to the dismay of his competitors, he was an immediate success. The local economy grew, unemployment went down and local businesses thrived. And he was most proud of the fact that he had stood up to corruption. He had been offered bribes, offered back-alley deals, and he was even threatened, but Adam stood up for himself. He stood up for good. He had succeeded in the way he wanted to. He had never felt more pride.

As his first term came to an end, people were calling for his re-election. But the truth was his thoughts still dwelled on Parkersboro. He knew now he had what it took to clean up a town, and get it on the straight and narrow. He knew he had what it took to end corruption, and nothing tantalized him quite like going home and cleaning it up. Part of him wanted to stay here and continue the work he started, but he couldn't resist the temptation. It was with a heavy heart that he announced that he would not be returning as Mayor for a second term. He was going home.

Adam and Paula returned home for the first time in nearly ten years. It was nice to see their friends and family, but unfortunately, Parkersboro had not improved. The strain of corruption was apparent in every facet of the town. The businesses, City Hall, and even the schools. Adam knew he had his work cut out for him.

Adam had already started his campaign for Mayor of his birthplace, and even though the election was not for another eight months, he had a home base set up, in an old restaurant, where he had his people spreading the good word about him, generating positive buzz.

Paula was his campaign adviser, and helped handle the financial side of the campaign. She was the perfect person to have on his side, and plus, it was nice to spend as much time as he could with his soul-mate.

To get support for his campaign, Adam was required to meet with the heads of various organizations, and that's what he was doing today. He was meeting with the newly elected Mother Superior of the local convent.

Paula had set this meeting up, as she still maintained a close relationship with the Church. While Adam still maintained his faith, he did not attend Church as often as he used to. The Church had a negative stigma attached to it that had left him disillusioned. He still attended when he could, but it was mostly for Paula's sake. She was much more devout than he was, and she had confessed that if she wasn't in politics, she would be working for the Church. She was happy to see that the Church in Parkersboro where they had gotten married was under the guidance of a new group, led by a new Mother Superior. Paula had yet to meet her, but everyone spoke very highly of her. Paula was quick to accommodate when she'd received a call requesting a sit down with Adam from this Sister Catherine.

Paula had some ulterior motives as well. Part of her knew a surefire way to get a group of voters was to get the church on their side. Plus, despite his best efforts, Paula had caught on to the fact that he was not as dedicated to the Church as he used to be. She was hoping that maybe this new, supposedly charismatic and influential Mother Superior could maybe win him back.

Adam and Paula were waiting in his office for the Mother Superior to arrive. Their campaign office operated out of a small storefront they'd leased in one of the more run-down neighborhoods. When they'd moved in the front window was broken and boarded up, and it was covered with lewd and offensive graffiti. Adam had never been afraid of hard work, and in the space of a week had transformed the run down storefront into his renewed and renovated campaign office. Adam thought it important to be close to the action; to show not only his dedication to community outreach, having employed many of the locals in some way or another, but that he was not afraid. Now his campaign office stood as testament to his promise that he'd similarly clean up the rest of Parkersboro.

The gleaming white spit-shined storefront stood out as a sign of his incorruptibly spirit in the midst of the ruin that surrounded it. Paula had decided to have the Mother Superior meet them here, to show their dedication, and hopefully to impress her and gain the Church's support.

"So, you haven't even met her?" Adam asked.

"No, but I have only heard good things." Paula said.

"Do you know if she is punctual?" Adam asked, checking his watch, and tapping it with his finger three times for effect, holding it up to his ear as if to make sure it was still ticking.

"No." Paula said with a laugh, "I haven't heard that."

Adam stood and walked over to the window. He looked at the city, a city he hoped would soon within his power to save.

"There are better things we could be doing right now, as opposed to meeting with all these leaders of these organizations. We could be out on the streets, getting our name out there, doing good," Adam huffed, a little frustrated. It was not in him to be cooped up in one place. He was constantly at work, constantly moving. Paula came up behind him.

"Honey you need to calm down." she said, rubbing his shoulders. She knew how worked up he could get sometimes, but like a good wife, she knew how to calm him down. She kissed his neck and as she continued to rub his neck she could feel him relax a bit, pushing back against her.

"I always love how you looked all dressed up." she said, admiring her fit, sexy husband in his dress clothes.

Adam turned to face his wife. He wrapped his hands around her waist.

"You don't want to get me too relaxed. You don't want me to have to take the rest of the afternoon off and show you what happens when you rub my shoulders like that," Adam growled in mock lust, leaning forward to kiss his pretty wife. She giggled and kissed him back. Before they could get carried away, there was a knock at the door as it opened. Adam and Paula pulled apart just in time as somebody walked in.

"Hello?" a female voice called out questioningly. A head peeked around the door. Her headpiece gave away her identity. She looked over at the red faced couple, startled and embarrassed at having been caught in an intimate moment by a Nun.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Is this a bad time?" the Nun inquired with a polite giggle that put them at ease. Adam looked over, and he was surprised to see she was so young. He expected an older woman, not the pretty face of the woman standing behind the door.

"No, by all means, come on in." Adam said, pulling away from Paula and walking towards the nun to greet her. As he did, she stepped out from behind the door and shut it. As she did, Adam couldn't help but study her.

She was strikingly gorgeous. Bright, friendly eyes, pouty lips, and a cute, dimpled, smile. She only looked to be couple years older than him. Adam realized this woman could have been a model, but obviously she had gone the opposite direction.

He glanced at the rest of her, and even though she was wearing a bulky habit, with the way the unflattering garment was cinched at her waist, the way the bulky material draped off her lush form so dramatically suggested that she had a good body. And despite his better judgment, he could not help but note that with the way the habit hung off her, it seemed as if she had a very sizable chest. Adam realized what he was doing, looking at this pious representative of the Church with that same calculating leer he had seen his frat buddies use when sizing up a hot bodied sorority slut, and he looked up into her eyes before anyone could notice his shame.

"Hello, Mother Superior. I'm Adam Fitzpatrick. This is my wife, Paula." Adam said, quick to regain his senses, gesturing towards Paula as he invited her in.

"Please, no need for the formalities. You can call me Catherine." she said with a warm smile, holding out her hand. Adam took her hand in his, and she squeezed it gently. She did the same with Paula.

Adam went and sat behind his desk, and Paula sat to the side. Catherine sat across the desk, facing Adam. As Catherine took her seat, she fidgeted with her outfit, as if it was uncomfortable. Well, it was a pretty hot day, Adam thought.

"So, how can I help you Catherine?" Adam asked. She had requested this meeting, so Adam was here to let her say her piece.

"Well, first of all, it's nice to see a fresh face in town. I think we are in agreement that things around here need to change. Lord above knows that I've have done my part," Catherine started, looking up and crossing her heart, "Before I got here, the Church was extremely corrupt, and I sought to change that. Some have rejected my group. They called us untraditional, or an outlying sect. People fear change, and they will oppose it. So, you need to remain strong in order to succeed. Trust me, I know. So I am here to help. I know there can't be any formal business done between us, but the Church's support can go far. I try to keep myself active and informed politically, so I know you are the future, Adam. I not only want to establish a relationship between your campaign and the church, but I want to establish a strong relationship between you two and my Church," Catherine concluded.

"What do you mean?" Adam asked, raising a questioning eyebrow.

"We have done our research on you two, and we have noticed you guys haven't come back to our church since arriving back in town. I would like to change that," Catherine stated firmly.

"Well, we've been busy with the campaign. I have been going to a Church just outside town, and Adam comes when he can." Paula replied nervously, afraid of offending the Mother Superior, squirming slightly underneath her stern gaze.

"Well, I hope to change that. I want you guys to come to my church, and see what we have to offer. I hope that you two will come back week after week. And if you like what you see, then you will have the Church's full support in the upcoming election. I will make myself indispensable to your campaign. If you need anything from me, let me know. Not only do I want you to get close to the Church, I want you two to be close to me. I am hoping that, during this campaign, we can all grow to be close friends," Catherine paused, leaning forward slightly, "Very close friends."
