Intro

The phone ran as loud as usual, maybe even louder. All I know is that it woke me up from my peacefull, dreamless sleep. Opining my eyes and turning to my side, I noticed that once again, George wasn't there. I sighed and scotted over on his side of the bed, grabbing the phone. I picked up the pillow that he had slepton and held it close to me.

"Hello?" I asked, trying to hold back the tears.

"Hey Angel, are you doing alright?" Amy said on the other line.

"I'm fine." I said choking on my tears. I couldn't hold it back anymore, and burst out crying. "Amy, I think he left for good this time!" I sobbed and clutched onto the pillow harder.

"Oh Angle, I am so sorry. How long has he been sneaking out on you for?"

"Three weeks. I...I...I saw hi...him with that g...girl aga...again just la...last week. She is mu...much more bea...beautifuler then m...me." I choked on my sobbs.

"Angel, you have natural beauty, she had to get sugery for hers." Amy said trying to make me feel better. To bad I am so stubborn.

"Amy, he is th...the fith per...person who has left me. That shows th..that I am not beautiful." I said starting to get controll back.

"Angel, you are as beautiful as your name is. Who was it that made head chear-leader back in high-school? Who was it that one all those beauty pagents with me comming in second?"

"Amy, that was years ago."

"I know, but that doesn't mean that anything has changed. Now, I didn't call to become yoru phyciatrist, I have called to tell you that Ted and I are going to dinner and want you to come. Mort, my ex-husband is comming. Maybe you two can get to know another."

"Oh, ok. What time?" I said. My spirits were rising. Mort must know something about harsh turns in relationships. Amy said that before her, he had had some relationships like my own.

"Well, I was thinking we could all meet before dinner, so maybe in three hours, at one? Is that alright with you?"

"Yeah, I will be there. Where are we going to meet?"

"Well, I tought maybe at Mort's cabin since it is by a lake and I know how much you love the water."

"Is that going to be alright with him?"

"Of course, he wouldn't mind having some company. He is all alone out there. I am sure he would love us comming by."

We talked for around an hour longer and finally said our goodbys. I looked down at the pillow that still smelled of George, but was cold now.

Just like his heart.

I thought bitterly.

Why did he have to leave me for that piece of plastic with two legs, arms, and a head? I am natural! I thoght that was what he liked about me!

I sighed and threw the pillow across the room, watching as it hit the wall hard, falling to the ground. I got out of bed and saw that I only had an hour and a half to get ready and go to Mort's house which I had only a little discription of where and how to get there. I put on a paire of light blue jeans that weren't skin tight, but showed my figure and that was fraying at the bottem. I grabbed a long sleeved blue shirt with a gray rim around the neck. It's sleeves went to the tips of my fingers, and it again wasn't skin tight, but showed my body a little. It stopped an inch before the rim of my jeans began. I grabbed my hair brush and started brushing out my long brown hair, getting out all my bed head knots. i grabbed a hair band and tyed my hair up. Grabbing my tooth brush, I put some tooth paste on it and put it under the foset. Turning on the water for a second or two, I turned it back off and started brushing my teah. I walked out of the bathroom, still brushing my teath, and walked down stares.

What's the letter going to say this time, that is if he left me one. 'Hey honey, I heard on the news that the traffic was going to be bad today so I am getting a head start' 'Hey my sparkiling Angel, sorry I couldn't stick around, you were more beautiful then ever last nigh.'? Those lies kept getting more pathetic every time I read them. I am getting quiet sick of it. Maybe this has happened to Mort and he could tell me how to get over George.

My thoughts stopped when I came across the letter with a rose by it.

Wow, this is a new one. You put a rose by it. That's actually sweet.

I picked up the note and read it outloude.

"Good morning my Angle. I had one of the best nights I could ever have with anyone, but I am sorry to tell you I can't stay with you. What I mean is that I have found someone that I can love, someone who loves me back. Now I know that you love me, but I am sorry to say I never quite loved you the same way. I am sorry that I lead you on, expecially with last nights episode. I shouldn't have slept with you last night. I know you have seen me with the woman, her name is Jess if you were woundering. I hope that you can move on as easily as I have, and I just wanted to tell you that I love you, but not in that way. I will be sending you the divorce pap-"

I couldn't take it, I couldn't read another word. I ripped the letter up into shreds and cryed my heart out. The paper made a thin deep cut in my index finger, but I didn't care or feel the paine. My heart just broke before my very eyes. I grabbed the rose he had left me and walked over to a pot. Putting it in it, I grabbed the match set that was on the counter by it and struck the match, putting it in with the rose. The fire licked at the rose, but never burned it.

"Why aren't you burning!" I yelled at the flower. Tears ran down my face and I screamed, filling a glass of water and dousing the fire that wasn't doing anything. I sat myself down on the chaire and counted to five a couple of times. It suprisingly calmned myself down and I sighed deeply.

Oh what is happining to me?

xxxxxxxxx

Rubbing the sleep from my eyes, I opened them slightly and reached for the phone that was rining by the couch I was sleeping on. Holding up the phone to my ear, I anwsered it.

"Hello?"

"Mort, is that you?" Amy asked.

"Who else would it be?" I asked.

"I don't know, but that's not the pointe. I was woundering if Ted, Angel, and I could come over to your house then we could all go to dinner. Roux loves the watter and all, and since you live right on the lake, I am sure she would be thrilled if you said yes."

"Who is Roux?"

"She is a good friend of mine. I met her at one of your book signings a year ago with some of her friends."

"Sounds nice."

"She is having a ruff time Mort, please let her come and maybe you two can get to know another-"

"I don't need someone in my life at the moment Amy if that is what you are trying to do. I am perfectly fine being lovless." I spat.

"Mort, I never said that you were going to fall in love with her. I was just saying that you could get to know another better."

"Physically or verbally?" I asked trying to annoy her.

"Mort! Did I mention that she is having a ruff time? The last thing she needs is you in her pants! She's married anyways."

"Fine, why don't you just come on over, it's not like I am doing anything."

"Are you sure? I mean we don't have to if you don't want us to."

This is what I don't get, she pushes me to have them over then starts to decline.

"No, by all means come over."

"Thank you Mort, it will be a half an hour." Amy said and the phone clicked.

I sighed and ran my fingers through my haire. I got up and walked up stares, deciding to put something deciant looking on. I grabbed a grey long sleeved shirt and some jeans. I put on my clothes as I walked down stares and grabbed my glasses that were on the coffee table by my couch. I sighed again and put the glasses on and looked at myself in the window that over looked the lake.

If she is one of Amy's friends she isn't going to live up to her name.

I walked outside not bothering to put on sox or shoes and sat down on one of the chaires, waiting for them to come.
