Take a Bow

She was crying, not looking at him and not even thinking about him. She tried to hold the tears back but after finding out what he did to his best friend was horrifying.

She didn't know what to think of him anymore, but she knew one thing she doesn't fancy him anymore. If she imaged her and him together who knows what he would have done.

You look so dumb right now
Standin' outside my house
Tryin' to apologize
You're so ugly when you cry
(Please)
Just cut it out

Later on that evening, she was driving home to get away from him and get it off her mind that she even loved him. She had stopped on the road and took a deep breath, closing her eyes hoping it was all a dream and trying to wake up from that nightmare.

She heard a beep of horns in the background and she had open her eyes again and started driving again and she turned the corner and drove down her road with more and more tears coming down her face.

Don't tell me you're sorry cuz you're not
Baby when I know you're only sorry you got caught

She knows his not sorry towards her at all but her guessing he sorry towards his best friend. When she had stopped outside her flat she got out of the car, slamming the car door so hard, walking away and finding her house key. She unlocked the door and she walked inside and towards the stairs, shutting the front door hard once again.

But you put on quite a show
You really had me goin'
But now it's time to go
Curtains finally closin'


That was quite a show
Very entertainin'
But it's over now
Go on and take a bow

When she reached the top of the stairs, she looked around the flat and it was so quiet, she fell to the ground and cried even harder. She thought he loved her but the truth came out he didn't, he just liked her as a friend, but she doesn't want to be his friend anymore not after what his best friend wife has told everyone.

Grab your clothes and get gone
(You better hurry up)
Before the sprinklers come on
Talkin' bout "Girl, I love you you're the one..."
This just looks like a re-run
(Please)
What else is on?

She stood up and walked towards the bathroom, she turned the light on and started running a bath and she sat on the edge of the bath and just thought how he could do this to everyone, keeping it a secret for 8 years especially from his best friend! She understood now how he felt about her.

And don't tell me you're sorry cuz you're not
Baby when I know you're only sorry you got caught

She wants to hurt him back but doesn't know how to, she stopped the water running and she got into the bath. After having a bath, she sat on her bed, looking at the floor. She remembered the night he came round to see if she was OK and she found that really sad.

But you put on quite a show
You really had me goin'
But now it's time to go
Curtains finally closin'
That was quite a show
Very entertainin'
But it's over now
Go on and take a bow



She felt more tears coming down her face, as she got into bed she felt so alone and so empty, but he didn't care one little bit about her. She heard on knock on the door and she ignored it because she knew who it was going to be. It was going to be him making sure she was OK and quite frankly she didn't want to know him anymore.

And the award for the best liar goes to you
For makin' me believe
That you could be
Faithful to me
Let's hear your speech
oh...

There it was again a knock and she got up and she walked down the stairs and she opens the door and yelled.

'WHAT' she yelled out.

He took a step back from her but it wasn't him this time, it was his best friend and she felt so awkward shouting at him when he hasn't done anything wrong.

She could feel his pain and she let him in and gave him a hug. He held her tight to his body and she felt so glad he had come to her. They were both crying and holding each other.

After that they sat on the sofa and he looked at her, wiping the tears from eyes and he whispered to her...

'Don't cry' he whispered.

How bout a round of applause?
Standin' ovation...

She looked at him and she was surprise he told her to stopped crying, she did and she noticed how close they were to each other bodies.

She could feel his warm arm around her and she put her finger on his lips and she went a bit closer to him and kissed him on the lips. 

She had no idea what she was thinking or how she was feeling anymore because this was his best friend comforting her and he kissed her with care and love that she wanted him.

But you put on quite a show
You really had me goin'
But now it's time to go
Curtains finally closin'
That was quite a show
Very entertainin'
But it's over now
Go on and take a bow

As she got closer to him, she took his coat off and he grabbed her hand and he pulled away, looked at her. He held her hand and she whispered to him...

'It OK, it all over now' she whispered in his ears.

He looked at her and pulled her in for a hug and she pushed him away and stood up, walking into the kitchen and he followed her.

'I'm sorry it doesn't feel right...' he let out.

'Just go yeah I'm in no mood' she said back to him, turning round to look at him.

He looked at her body and he walked towards her, taking her hand and bring her closer to his body.

'Why you shutting everyone out?' he asked her.

She looked at him with a confusing face and she pushed him away and walked away.

'Get out' she answered to him.

He grabbed her and kissed her a bit deep this time, he pushed her against the wall and they kiss was getting deeper and deeper by the minute. She felt the warm body on her and he stopped and looked at her.



'You OK?' he questioned her.

She nodded and took his hand and whispered to him. 'Stay with me'. He looked at her and let her be in control, she walked up the stairs and he didn't care where she was taking him. When they got to her room and she kissed him again and invited him to her bed.

She knew it was over between her and him now but between her and his best friend this could be something she will never forget. She smiled at him and kissed him. She had started feeling a bit more loved by him now and she brought him closer to her body letting him touch her wherever he wanted.

She loved this guy but she only ever saw him as a friend maybe she does have feelings for him but never realised it. But she knew that it was only going to be her and him comforting each other in every way they can.

Abby Maitland could feel something new happening between her and Nick Cutter. She forgot all about Stephen Hart as he hurt Nick and her at the same time.

But it's over now...
