Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock
It's 2 am.
Indigo eyes listlessly glanced from the clock to the front door.
Pale hands gripped on the thick blanket that covered its owner.
A deep sigh, head leans back to the plush black couch.
Looking back at the clock, its 4 am.
Hopeful glances thrown at the door.
"Is he coming home?" is the thought running through her mind.
Knees drawn up and hugged in for support.
Head rests on the knees as she falls asleep.
The door creaks open. Eyes open. Violet meets indigo.
Ivan closes the door gently behind him. He takes of his shoes off and slowly he walks towards to his beloved. One glance at him and one would know that he had fun last night. That he had left in a rush this morning realizing the mistake he had done the night before. How regret clearly shows in his eyes.
He sits on the floor down in front of her. He looks her in the eyes and says.
"I'm sorry."
Tears start to flow. The heavy breathing starts. She was right. He had been out with her.
"Madeline." He says as he tried to reach for her face. To convey the regret he feels through gentle cresses. However he did not get the chance to.
"Don't touch me." She says venom dripping from her voice.
"Don't you dare touch me." She repeats again and again and again. Each time was a stab at his heart.
Her finger runs over her wedding ring. She stands up and leaves him alone on the floor. He notices the shape imprinted on the couch. He sees the tub of ice cream on the side of the couch. She has been waiting for him all night.
He remembers the fight they had before he ran off for the night.
"What's your true relationship with her?"
"We are just friends Maddie." He says "that's all nothing more."
"Then why were you guys holding hands? Why do you kiss her?" He glares at her.
"You had me followed." Anger shows in his voice.
"No." She says calmly. She looks him in the eyes anger showing through them.
"Your sister saw you guys at a restaurant though she said you look like you were doing business with an old friend. Gilbert saw her come out your car as you guys went to work. Lars saw the other day in the park. When you introduced her to me as your best friend before I opened the door I saw you guys holding hands through the window."
"So what! Can't I hold hands with my best friend whom I have not seen in a long time! I can't even kiss her good bye now!" he stood up as he shouts
"You can. If it wasn't on her lips." She replies. "If you weren't married."
"Well maybe I don't want to be married anymore!" and with that he rushed out the door.
He looks at the floor as he hears the sobs coming from their bedroom. He didn't know what possessed him to say what he said.
He stands up and goes to their room. He opens the door and he sees that his wife had fallen asleep. He wanted to go and embrace her but he stops himself. He felt dirty. He turns to go take a shower but before he went he sees Madeline's wedding ring. Happily resting upon her finger. He looks at his own ring shining brightly from the sunrays that entered from their bedroom window.
"I will fix this." He says and goes about the things he must. As he closes the door of the bathroom Madeline opens here eyes a small smile gracing her face as she tries to go to sleep.
Review please and tell me if it's good enough to continue.
