Natara's POV
Your walking down the hall heading towards district attorney Oscar Santos' office, otherwise known as your fiancé. You were going to surprise him with lunch since you Oscar has been so busy with work that you haven't seen him a lot lately. You step in front of his door as you reach for the kknob you can hear a faint giggle, it sounds like a woman but you're not completely sure. Then you hear words that stop you in your tracks, "Shhh...you can't be too loud we don't want anyone to hear now do we?" that familiar voice you now so well. You grab a hold of the door know and twist it pushing open the door forcefully, in front of you sits Oscar at his desk chair with some blonde skank on his lap. She's in nothing but a grey pencil skirt and a white lace bra. Oscar has a face of shock and guilt while your face reads...well nothing, its blank. You have no words to say and no emotion to show. "Excuse me can you see this is a private moment." The blonde says reaching for her shirt to cover herself. "Excuse me, can you see you're on top of MY fiancé!" you cough back with attitude. You fold your arms over your chest and scowl Oscar. "Fiance? I can't believe you!" the blonde huffs as she throws on her shirt and scampers out the door. She's obviously mad by the way her heels are stomping the floor. "Natara I.." oscar starts. "NO! Save it!" you cut him off. "You are the biggest asshole I have ever met! So take your stupid ring and shove it!" you say tossing your engagement ring at him. You turn on your heels and head out of the office. "Natara, Natara!" you can hear Oscar in the distance. You push open the main door to the building and head to the parking lot. But you don't hear the door slam behind you, that's because someone else has caught it on their way out. That's when you hear that voice again "Natara please let me explain.." Oscar says hot on your heals, he grabs your arm trying to stop you from walking away. Thats when you turn and with all your power you cock back your arm and bring it forward, your fist connecting with his nose. "Don't touch me!" you say firmly. Oscar stumbles back a bit, his hand grabbing his broken nose. "Alright I think I deserved that one." Oscar states calmly. "Please let me explain." he begs hoping you would listen. "Go to hell Oscar!" you yell as you walk to your car. Oscar doesn't move he realizes that he should let you cool off a bit. You got in your car and pulled out of the parking lot, you were gripping your steering wheel hard. Your mind was blank, you had no thoughts, no emotion, you just drove home with feeling of anger but at the same time you thought "I don't have anything to be angry about." You made it home and you entered your apartment, you set down your bag and key's on the table next to the door. You headed straight for the kitchen grabbing a bottle of red wine and a wine glass. You filled the glass half way then downed it. "I'm so stupid" you whispered to yourself. You walk down the hallway toward your bedroom, you push open then door and swiftly pull your shirt over your head and toss it on the floor, following along goes your bra. You enter the master bath and pull back the shower curtain, turning the nob hot water comes pouring out. You undress the rest of the way, entering the shower the hot water hits your back as you tip your head getting your head wet. Your eye's close and you feel relaxed, you grab the soap and start to rub it along your back, feeling the suds of the soapy water fall down your body. You soon get out and change, falling into your big white sheeted bed, you mindlessly fall asleep.
You wake up to the sound of someone pounding on your door. You jump up and look at your clock. "5:30am? Shit!" you hop out of bed, you forgot to set your alarm for work and now your going to be horribly late. You run to the front door and open it to see your detective partner Mal on the other side. "Mal I'm so sorry I forgot to set my alarm, I don't want you to be late too, I'll just meet you at work? Oh my..I gotta get dressed!" you screech heading for your room. "Natara!" Mal interrupts your rambling. You look at him with worried eye's, "Are you okay?" he asked a bit concerned "I'm fine! why wouldn't I be?" you asked trying to act normal. "Well your never late for anything.." Mal stopped halfway when he noticed your left hand "Natara..where's your ring?" he asked worried. You stop, you can't think of anything to say "I..." you look up into his eye's and yours begin to water. For the first time you're actually crying over this situation. Mal rushes to you and wraps his arms around you, his head resting on top of yours. "What happen?" he whispers. "He cheated..." you whisper back. Mal pushes you towards the couch and sits you down, he takes a seat next to you. Your eye's are bloodshot, the flood gates have opened and your heart is releasing it's pain. "Natara I know how much it hurts to find out the person you love is cheating on you.." Mal stops short when he hears you laugh. He looks at you confused, while you're looking straight ahead. "That's the thing, I didn't love him!" you state in a serious tone. Mal doesn't know what to say, his eye's scan around the room while his brows are lost in his hair line. "What? Then why are you so upset? WAIT? Why were you going to marry him?" Mal ask with a bit of anger in his voice. You sit there and shake your head "I..I love you!" you say turning your head to him "I've always loved you!" he looks at you with a confused yet shocked look, you turn your head back. "But I knew you'd never love me back so I settled for Oscar and then he cheated and I realized I screwed up! I should have told you I loved you but I was so damn scared and now I'm upset because I blew any chance with you, no I'll never have you as mine..." you ramble off when your cut short by the feeling of two hands grabbing your face and a pair of lips smashing into your's. By the time you realize that Mal is kissing you he has started to pull away. Not far though, your lips barely touching and he's still holding your face, both of your eye's flutter open and are now staring into the others. "I love you too! I've loved you since the day I saw you and I was always afraid to tell you. I was actually going to the night at the bar but you didn't show up and I then when you said you were engaged I realized why you didn't show." You look up with shocked eye's. "I was going to tell you that night too.." you say looking at an again confused Mal "..I saw you kissing Blaise's cheek and I assumed you were with her so I said yes to Oscar..Mal Im so sorry I hurt you." you say just above whisper. Mal smiles and softly kisses you again. "Hey this was all just a big misunderstanding. But it's okay now because we have each other." You smile at Mals words "Does, this mean your mine now?" She asked with a smile "As long as your mine" he replies. You pull him back to your lips and seal your new found relationship with a passionate kiss.
